Frugal website: Making $5 dinners!

Interesting article today in The Herald (for my Florida friends, that’s the Rock Hill, not the Miami!). Erin Chase “began making $5 meals for her family of four during the depths of the economic downturn.” Her strategies and recipes turned into a website, 5dollardinners.com; a dinner cookbook published in 2009; and a recently released follow-up, “The $5 Dinner Mom Breakfast and Lunch Cookbook.”

York County: Looking for something to do in historic York? Check out new site!

Stop by the new website “Visit Historic York, SC” — it’s sponsored by the York Downtown Business Association. The site is very well done, and it contains links to York’s local businesses, restaurants, theaters, parks, festivals, etc. etc.

Be sure to let them know if there are more things you’d like to see. I know I’d love a slideshow, with more photos of our awesome city! How about links to Parks & Rec, plus info about school events (high-school concerts, fish fries, football games…)
