    I tell everyone that I am going to stay in the 20th century as long as possible. I still have a landline and cook 99.9% of my meals at home. I buy only needs, never wants. Living this way makes me very happy. I clean my own home, have a small vegetable garden, and compost. I am a minimalist and try to waste nothing.

    Two added benefits from cooking at home and baking from scratch are 1) you can control what goes into your food so fewer additives and preservatives and 2) cooking and baking takes time so you have less time to do other things that cost money such as shopping.

    Saw a person growing sweet potatoes in a bucket on a sailboat, not for the sweet potatoes, but for the leaves, you can begin harvesting leaves in a month. Sweet Potato leaves, stems, roots are edible, contain protein carbs and nutrients, use the leaves for salads or as a spinach substitute.

    My parents survived two World Wars, living in the UK. What they taught me about mindful frugality has been benefitial for my entire life. Their habits are so ingrained, I would have great difficulty changing. I do not consider myself a fanatic, and am definately not as frugal as they were, but compared to most, I am far less wasteful. I was taught that wasting food was akin to being criminal, therefore, I never waste anything. Even the parts of veggies, I cut off before eating, my rescued rabbits happily consume along with dandelions from my garden, their manure goes back on the garden. I shop at Grocery Outlets for their WOW deals, and am a lifelong prepper. I can always shop at home, going to the store is optional. Having enough food and supplies of every day living on hand to last several years brings savings now and future security, it mitigates inflation and eliminates shortages. Waste not, want not. A stitch in time saves nine!

    Love these 'slow down' videos. With Lent around the corner....it is a good time for positive changes. Funny....my husband and I are in our 60's -- both still working but working out the plan to retire by year's end. We had a hard freeze here in STL for a couple of weeks so didn't want to go out that much. After dinner, we started to play cards. The most amazing thing...we really chat during that time. I think this new habit will linger.... ;)

    I love your videos and agree with you. Because of health issues and a changed view to life, I actual declutter and simplify my life. Being mindful while spending money is challenging and a process, but its a great feeling to dont need a lot of stuff. Decluttering is a experience: I'm still wondering what I bought the last years.
    But I realized, that a few things, make my life easier. I have a very low level of energy at the moment, because of a desease. So I am very grateful for the things, that help me to clean the house etc.

    Didn't strike me as very frugal. Looks like a lot of luxuries there. Also I assume the oven wasn't put on just to dry out a few orange slices. My frugality means the oven only goes on when I have planned many things to fit in at the same time. To me it just didn't seem to have integrity.

    I think it is a false "romantic" notion that "almost every family had a garden". Neither of my parents grew up growing gardens. Dad was born in 1926, Mom in 1928. Both lived in cities. Mom went to visit her cousins who lived in the country and was astounded at the abundance of food they enjoyed. City dwellers just didn't have yards for gardens. I think my Dad may have had a citrus or other fruit tree of some kind in their San Diego yard, but they didn't grow a garden. Only those who lived in the rural, farming areas had gardens. Even during WWII, they didn't have "victory gardens". There just wasn't any room. People ate much more simple meals in the 20s, 30s and 40s.
