Well this was an interesting year! Looking back to January 2008, do you think we could have predicted some of things that have happened this year? Probably not. But now let's look forward to 2009. We will be making some lifestyle changes. For example, trying to be more green and to be a bit more frugal.
One of the ways we are planning to do this, is to eat at home more. We know that eating at home saves money so we will be looking for easy ways to cook more economically and have fun doing it. And you know what - it will probably be healthier too.
We'd love to hear from you with your ideas for living smart and having fun in 2009.
