    What’s a breakfast dozen doughnut date?

    • Crystal December 11, 2012 at 01:20 pm

      We’re celebrating 12/12/12 by meeting some friends for an early breakfast at a local doughnut shop to get a dozen doughnuts and split them together. :) Sorry if that wasn’t really clear from my post!

      • Victoria December 11, 2012 at 02:32 pm

        I was wondering too! I was imagining a doughnut eating contest, where you see which one of you can polish off a dozen donuts first! (there is actually a 5K where at the water stop you have to do that before you can continue on I read about it in Runner’s World once)

        • Crystal December 11, 2012 at 02:33 pm

          You had to polish off a dozen doughnuts halfway through a 5k? Oh gross!!! :)

          • Victoria December 11, 2012 at 02:37 pm

            That’s what I thought too! Apparently it is well attend though.

      • Trish December 11, 2012 at 03:00 pm

        What a cute fun idea.

  • Bianca Alice December 11, 2012 at 04:08 pm

    You’re a great inspiration to me. A year and a half ago I became pregnant with my first at 24 years of age. I followed you when I could and you’ve helped me to get my mommy/ frugal skills up to par. Thanks so much! I get compliments weekly on what a great job I do with my frugal spending and raising my son. Thanks again!

    Oh my stars, your dozen doughnut date on 12/12/12 is like the best idea ever!! Too bad I’ll have to wait a millennium to plan something like that myself, lol! =)

    I’m working on getting back on track with goals. Last week’s got derailed with kids getting sick. But it’s a new week and I’m trying again. :)

  • Shelly December 11, 2012 at 04:28 pm

    The breakfast doughnut date sounds like fun. Hope you have a great time.

  • Courtney December 11, 2012 at 07:26 pm

    I keep forgetting to ask…Where do you get all your audiobooks? I’ve found some at my library, but their selection isn’t great for non-fiction.

    • Crystal December 11, 2012 at 07:43 pm

      Did you check inter-library loan?

  • Leigh Anne December 11, 2012 at 08:58 pm

    Have you read the Baxter Family series by Karen Kingsbury? They are wonderful!!

    • Crystal December 11, 2012 at 09:21 pm

      Yes, I recently finished the whole redemption series and really enjoyed it!

  • Sandy December 11, 2012 at 11:33 pm

    I have one goal this week, to work full-time (40 hours) applying for jobs. Wish me luck!
