He has a radio show in the states which has clips on YouTube, where he deals with people's debt and how they can be debt free. Also his seminars are on there. His 7 Baby Step method is particularly good.:D

You can listen to the whole 3 hour Dave Ramsey radio show via his website, there's also a daily podcast. The debt-free screams are great.

I know.....they are so infectious!

My sister gave me some stir fry veg, sauce and noodles she bought for me from M&S. I don't know the original price but she paid £1.20, mixed with some chicken out of the freezer, and that's this evenings dinner taken care of!

I'm trying to sort out some businesses cards out from Vistaprint, but my grandchildren....I'm at my DD2's house.....won't let me concentrate!
I may have to pop into Maccys later and piggyback their WiFi whilst drinking a free cup of coffee!

Smoothie? Put with other fruit either raw as a fruit salad or cooked down for a crumble? Or a sauce for ice cream?

A question about flower seed mixes...

At the weekend I deweeded the front garden beds and have been nosing through my (slightly out of date, whoops) seed packets as to what flowers I have to grow..

I have a couple of seed mixes - a 'wild flower' mix and a 'scented' mix but I'm worried that instead of a mildly organised array of flowers, I'll end up with a mess of flowers for all to see

Has anyone used anything like this isna front garden and how did it turn out?

I have to say I plant mixed seeds in pots as generally if they look a mess then I can spread them out....;)

I also sort of buried the pots to contain the seeds?

Aahhhh, there's a plan.. thanks Buffy!
