This week Funny made Editor’s Choice with “Work Is a Place” at the Carnival of Pecuniary Delights, which appears at Momma’s Blog. Thanks, Momma! This carnival, which encourages bloggers to send in their best writing, no matter what the vintage, features a number of excellent posts. Here are a few that I especially enjoyed:
• Almost Frugal: Cool Your House Frugally
• The Digerati Life: How to Improve Your Credit Score
• Free Money Finance: Are You Tempted to Spend More when Money’s Tight?
At the Make It from Scratch Carnival, M’hijito’s delicious potato pie recipe made the cut. As usual with this carnival, every single entry is my favorite post. Check out a few:
• Simply Forties: Beet, Carrot, and Feta Salad
• Grandmother’s Pattern Book: Crocheted Sisal Rug
• Frills in the Hills: See My Heavenly Scrolls!
The Carnival of Personal Finance appears, with an entertaining theme, at Suburban Dollar. Funny’s latest schemes to deal with the pending layoff-induced retirement surfaces here. Wish I’d seen Fiscal Geek’s advice when M’hijito’s partyng pal threw him in a swimming pool, drowning his cell phone:
• Fiscal Geek: Revive Your Cell Phone or Electronic Devices from Water Damage
• Rags2Riches: Three Types of Unemployment
• Sound Money Matters: Nine Signs It’s the Right House for You, and One Sign It Isn’t
Consumer Boomer hosts this week’s Carnival of Money Stories and kindly included Funny’s post on the glories of older homes. Among the entries that are good stories:
• Bible Money Matters: Tempted to Spend? Remove the Source of Temptations
• Cash Money Life: Would You Be Willing to Work for Free?
