I always wanted to make a dinner for my boyfriend, but actually, his is the one who always cooks for me. Therefore, I learn a lot with his passion to cook and with his savor to prepare a tasty food every time.
Due to that, now I’m feeling confident to cook as well and help him in order to make a great dinner together! :)
I don’t have any housewife’s aspiration, although I want to learn to cook well for me and also to make others happy and proud of my cooking skills. ;)

It has been a long time trying to accomplish this goal and now I realize that I can’t make a specific list with the whole world of things that I’m eager to know and to discover everyday. By the time I added this goal to my list, I should have been more disciplined to note the most interesting things I have discovered since then. Maybe someday I’ll do that. But today I know that I learn something new everyday, by reading, by having experiences and by becoming aware of the things that you can absorb in your daily life to get to know more about them. I think that is the most important part of participating in this topic, because I’m curious enough to gather information and learn about it, even without a list to follow.
ps. Oh! And also I found a very interesting site about these little curious things that we want to know more about: http://cargocollective.com/learnsomethingeveryday/216584/January-10, and for example, I searched more about the subject and wrote a text: http://pequenainfante.blogspot.com/2009/12/once-in-blue-moon.html

I don’t follow this tips, haha, not at all, but I think they are funny and ironic with stingy people.
Scrimp and save is to try to save money by spending less on the things you need and by saving what you can, especially when you do not earn very much. However, I think that we shouldn’t be miser. We should spend money on our well-being and happiness first of all – but consciously, not a spendthrift. I guess that everyone has a different conception about what are their respective needs of well-being, but I would say that we should follow the guide of our quality of life.
I always consider whether or not the product is cost-effective, as well its quality/price. If the product is worth the price, I have no problem in pay for it. I should have a great reason to buy it.
Even so, every big expenses hurt me, maybe because I don’t have enough money to luxuries.
All things considered, nowadays I’m not saving money – but I guess that by the time I start to win money I will budget my expenses – and then I can save up. In such case, to achieve my goal, I might scrimp and save, but not forgetting about my well-being too.
