Feast Of Life: Living Humbly and Full Of Vegetables

A husband who works as a cashier, a housewife, and writer self-publishing and making small royalties, two kids, a small dog, and a mortgage-how can a family of four on small funds make it in California with housing so expensive? The minimum wage is high, but so is everything else in this state: gas, groceries, taxes. Well, guess what? They made it and are still making it! They live in a historic forest town, in a 123-year-old house they own. They are one of the rare seven million Californians who own a house. Is it luck, a blessing, an inheritance, or just smart living? There is no magic formula. It's just simple, frugal living and wise choices. It's how you live, how you feed your family, the sort of car you drive, if you live a wholesome life, if you garden, and many other little things that make it possible for a family to do well and live well despite the odds. Come get to know us and how we live. Hopefully, you leave inspired and with a few ideas.
