Some of my favorite posts this week include:

I consider myself a very good cook.  I am always trying new recipes and love trying “advanced techniques”.  Despite this, I can’t make a decent pot roast to save my life!  Heather at Home Ec 101 posted “Pot Roast 101″ and I am looking forward to trying (once again) to make a roast that doesn’t taste like shoe leather!

So many of us who have “grocery blogs” fail to remind our readers of some of the most basic rules of couponing.  Mercedes  at Common Sense with Money wrote this great post to help you avoid falling in to a common grocery store trap

Kacie at Sense to Save wrote this post to help you save money when you go out to a restaurant

Kacie was on a roll last week….check out this post to help you make the most of your clothing dollar!

Meal Planning is a HUGE part of saving money at the grocery store.  Check out this post at Frugal Hacks for some more advice on how to get started with meal planning

Jenn at Frugal Upstate posted her recipe for homemade granola.  It looks wonderful and is on my baking list for this week!

I share Cake Wreck’s hatred of cupcake cakes (they’re just WRONG).  But do you want to know what 5,900 cupcakes looks like?  Check out this cupcake mosaic created for President’s Day

Did you see a great post or would you like one of yours included next week?  Just send me the link!
