~Support AFM~

There are a variety of ways to help support Atlanta's Frugal Mom (the blog, not the Mom), all without spending a dime!  


1)  Simply by being here, and reading this, you're supporting AFM.  For that, I kindly thank you!


2) If you haven't already done so, "like" or "follow" AFM, not just on FacebookTwitter, Pinterest, or Google +, but here, on the actual blog.  


 I ask for followers, not to win a popularity contest, but because the more followers I have, the better the giveaways I can offer.  I'm starting to work with certain companies on promotions and giveaways, but they need to know that AFM has a solid base of readers.  Companies just aren't as willing to work with a blogger if they think that only one's friends and neighbors are reading said blog.


3)  Comments, comments, comments!  Leave a comment on the blog.  Leave one on the FB page, or  re-tweet a post.  Send me an email, if you feel so inclined.  Providing me with feedback further shows companies with whom I work on giveaways that this is an active and INTERactive blog.  More importantly, your comments, in whatever form they may take, let me know that you're really reading this stuff.  While I cannot guarantee that I'll always respond to your comments (at least in a timely manner), I do actively try to respond to as many as I can.  (Unless I think it's spam -- then it gets deleted.)  C'mon, you KNOW you have something to say!


4)  Finally, click on my links!  I've made it no secret that I'm working with some affiliate programs.  (In fact, I've yet to come across a money-saving-couponing-frugal blog that does not take advantage of affiliate programs!)  One of the main ways I know y'all are really benefitting from the blog (aside from y'alls remarks here and there), is seeing that you're clicking on the links.  Want to print coupons?  Go to my printable coupon page, and print/coupon your sweet heart out!  Have you taken advantage of the  samples and free stuff I have to offer?  Did you know I have a comprehensive Daily Deal page?  Not sure what to cook for dinner -- check out my recipe page!  I know this may sound a bit selfish, but it is a small way to show your support.  Also, I've been actively making more and more posts about frugal parenting -- check 'em out!

5) Share and share alike.  Also, I've been actively making more and more posts about frugal parenting -- check 'em out!  Then "pin", retweet, and/or "share" on Facebook.


Just to be clear, I am -by no means- able to retire on my affiliate programs.  (In fact, since I started signing up with affiliate programs in October 2010, I've yet to make the minimum amount to even get a check sent out!)  It simply allows me a small, small financial reward for creating and (trying to) maintain Atlanta's Frugal Mom.


Again, thank you all for being a part of Atlanta's Frugal Mom.  Now go follow, speak your mind, click, and support!  ;o)

Keep on saving!  :o)

(Shhh.... Sneaky) Sloppy Joes

Want to bulk up a simple classic with some veggies?  Try my Sneaky Sloppy Joes. Sauté some onions, garlic (two staples I put in just about any skillet dish), finely diced squash, finely chopped spinach.  You can also add finely diced carrots, bell peppers of assorted colors, brocolli, and whatever else you can sneak in to the pan!  I do all this before browning the ground turkey.  Then, prepare as you normally would, whether your sloppy joe sauce is canned, enveloped, or made-from-scratch (c'mon!). I've been packing mine with extra veggies for over a year, and no one is none the wiser.  Yet. (Please don't show this to my family...  please?) This recipe is also posted under my Big Oven account.  :o)

Ditching the Sponge

Ditching the Sponge This summer I accomplished something I once thought unthinkable: I gave up the sponge.  It was a gripping addiction, harder to kick than a nasty nicotine habit.   ...a habit that had the ability to spar k the silliest of arguments amongst even the best of   roomies.  Right, SwimBikeMom ?  :P  But once again, I digress; that's a blog for another day. Perhaps a tad  OCD, I was one of *those* people who had a sponge designated for various parts of the kitchen: one for the floor, one for the counters, and another one for dishes.  I knew for quite some time that sponges were a breeding ground for all things disgusting; however, I was not keen on the idea of using paper towels, or other disposable products -- I had  to find a GREEN alternative to sponges.
