The Frugal Life

As of today, I’m one of the ten gazillion people who have started a frugal-themed blog. It’s a totally unoriginal idea. It seems like everybody is writing about how they are surviving our generation’s great depression. But maybe that’s what makes the project so worthwhile. It’s not just a few people here and there writing about frugality, it’s a groundswell of people looking for ways to enrich the quality of their lives by embracing a frugal lifestyle.

But this blog wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for my friends. I’m lucky. I’ve got amazing girlfriends who know how to find the “joie” in “de vivre” no matter what the circumstances. Our project is to learn how to see the frugal life as a good life, as a wonderful life.
