Ordinary to Extraordinary


Since deciding to give a go at the farming business Farmer D and I have discussed our long term goals and created a family plan for our lives. Our family plan includes being compeletly debt free. Therefore this adds a certain twist to the daily farm operations; meaning we must be creative as we look to cut cost and save money. So that bring us to the laundry basket pictured above. This may appear like an ordinary laundry basket. However this basket has served many purposes here at the house and the farm lately. Right now this laundry basket doubles as a play pen during the day for the rabbits. Our Rex rabbits that I mentioned in a previous post came from a friend several weeks ago. And yes these babies are still inside our house. The unbareable temperatures outside lately have keep us from putting them at the farm with all the other animals.  (not to mention Farmer D still hasn't finished their cage; shh you didn't hear that from me). In the picture below you can see them hanging out in the sun eating some left over veggies from the garden.


What kind of things have you resorted to finding multiple uses for in an effort to save money or be frugal?
(I've got an interesting one to show this afternoon after I get a picture of it at the farm)
