On some random weekend recently, for an unremembered reason, we got FIREd up again. We knew about FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) already, but it was decided on that day that we would revisit doing FIRE.
Maybe it was my first weekend going to Market Basket instead of Hannaford and seeing how much lower the grocery bill actually was. I don’t remember. But anyway, we looked at all our subscriptions, canceled the ones we didn’t need, broke out the old French Press so we could stop going to Starbucks every morning, and turned to meal prepping.
Bear with me, this does involve gardening. Eventually. But it also involves the homesteading mindset, directly, and I’m all about the homesteading life Or maybe I’m more of a glamsteading person? I don’t want to slaughter my own pigs, and I don’t yet own chickens. So maybe that’s a thing, and there’s no shame in my glamsteading game!
So NOW I’m thinking this blog will be not just about gardening, but also about all the stuff I’m doing that’s super adjacent to gardening/homesteading, and that I think are really interesting, valuable, and worth sharing.
