Keeping it simple!

It's Frugal Friday over on my other blog and I'm talking about ways we save money by keeping it simple. Here's a snippet:

Here are just a few ways we keep things simple at our home and save time, energy, and money:

::We drink primarily water. Aside from my daily pot of tea and our occasional splurge on soda, coffee, or juice, we keep it simple by drinking water. Hey, it might be boring, but it's good for you!

::We stick to simple meals. Our meals are usually two to four simple items (and most recipes have six ingredients or less) and most of our dinners can be made in 30 minutes or  crockpot and bread machine, and am constantly on the lookout for new ways to streamline and be more efficient in the kitchen.

::We try to only have what we need and use.

A few examples:    

Clothes/Accessories - We each only have around 6-8 outfits and 2-3 pair of shoes per season. I only have two pair of earrings and wear pretty much the same make up and hair style for every occasion.
