One Hundred Dollars a Month

I am your typical housewife living in high maintenance suburbia. I have a handsome husband, 2 kids and a flock of pet chickens. I try and feed my family with $100 a month. With the help of coupons, gardening and bartering I am able to squeeze the most out of our grocery budget and still manage to have a little fun along the way.

Friday Night at the Movies – The Wizard of Oz

Since we are headed to Kansas tonight, I think it only fitting that my buddies and I watch The Wizard of Oz {yep, I know, not even a documentary!}.

I used to love this movie as a little girl, and with Amazon Prime, we can easily get it and stream it to my laptop in our hotel–there are definitely some perks to technology.  I think we will lay around in our jammies and eat junk food.  Sounds like the perfect ending to an awesome day if you ask me.

Let me know what you think if you decide to watch it–or if you have already seen it.  Did you love it? Hate it? Can’t wait to watch it over and over?

Friday Night at the Movies – Earth Voice, Food Choice

Tonight I’m on my own, so I am going to check out Earth Voice, Food Choice.  It popped up as a suggested movie for me on Amazon, and looks pretty interesting.  It is a documentary/lecture that talks about our reliance on air, water, and dirt–and how we are destroying it with our modern day practices.

It’s in a lecture form, so I can feel like I am taking a class and still be in my p.j.’s.  Ha.

Amazon Prime Members can watch Earth Voice, Food Choice for free.

Tonight The Girl and I are watching The Dark Side of Chocolate.  The recommendation comes from One Hundred Dollars a Month reader, Kathryn.  She wrote:

Mavis,

I enjoy your blog so very much. I notice that you often have coupons for chocolate and I would like to encourage you (in your busy life!) to take a look at Fair Trade chocolate. Here is a documentary about where our non-fair trade chocolate comes from. Thanks for taking a look (if you can, whenever you have time).

Thanks for the suggestion, Kathryn, I happen to have time today.

The documentary is FREE to watch.

Friday Night at the Movies – Food Beware: French Organic Revolution

Tonight The Girl and I are going to watch Food Beware:  The French Organic Revolution.  It is a documentary {mostly in subtitles, as a fair warning} that explores the French people’s concern with pesticides and the dangers of modern day farming on the health of their people.  I am super curious to get another country’s take on something that is concerning to me too.  I am also hoping that they will show some of their proposed solutions to the problem.

Amazon Prime Members can watch Food Beware:  The French Organic Revolution for free.
