Vacation or Stay-cation: Eating without Busting the Budget – Eat at Home

So now I’m wondering … which of these is most appealing to you? And, just for fun, how about I give away a couple of copies of Sheila Walsh’s newest book, The Shelter of God’s Promises,  to a couple of commenters?  Yeah, sounds like a great idea to me too!   I’ll choose two winners from the comments Thursday at 9 pm EST and announce it Friday here on the blog.  {And look for my review of Sheila’s book next week!}

Many thanks to Toni and Carrie for coordinating this huge project!   You girls are amazing!!
