Thank you so much! For some reason, making bread always intimidated me, especially gluten free. I made this recipe today with gluten free flour blend that I bought from Bulk Barn.
I made a double batch, and subbed one cup of gf flour for spelt flour, and I also let the dough rise a bit more once I had it in the bread pan before sticking it in the oven.
It came out FANTASTIC! I will definitely make this recipe again, and I am looking forward to using it for sandwiches this coming summer when I can go one picnics.
I shop with coupons and watch the clearance racks. And I found a good way to put money in savings is after a bill is paid off take a portion of what the payment was and have it automatically put into savings each month.

My favorite way to save money is resisting temptation. I avoid malls and online shop and stick to a list. This helps me eliminate buying non necessity items
My favorite way to save money is resisting the temptation. I avoid websites that make me want new things or going for "walks around the mall." If I don't see it and get it in my head that I need it. I'll never spend the money. Thi helps me pay for be nexcesities only!
We only have one bathroom in the condo, and we share that with guests. It's generally not a problem. Some potential guests will ask in advance because having to share a bathroom may be a deal breaker for them, but you can always just include that information in your description so potential guests can see that from the start. I do, however, let guests know when they arrive that we don't want any hairbrushes, makeup, etc. littering the bathroom. They're welcome to keep their toiletries in the shower and their toothbrush/paste in the holder, but otherwise I like to keep the bathroom clean of debris so it's convenient for everyone.
As for the guestroom, we use part of the guest room closet as well - we have limited space in NYC - but after a few guests mentioned they wished they had more space, I shuffled some things around (and got rid of things I didn't need; a good way to make a few extra bucks) so the guests could hang a few pieces in the closet and store a bag or two also.
You'll figure out how to run this business very efficiently after a few months of guests. Follow these tips that I've written and you'll do just fine.
For me, my biggest weakness is shopping for clothes and shoes. I try in general to avoid going in stores unless I have a specific need, but when I am interested in buying the clothing, I ask myself, "Is this piece of clothing perfect? Is the anything I would change about it?" If there is even a small thing I would rather be different, I don't buy it - better to save the money for when that perfect garment does come along. I also have a motto to not by anything on sale that I wouldn't seriously consider buying if it was full price.
My favorite way of saving money is to setup a direct deposit to an online account which i can only access by making transfers. No debit card. No check. Harder to reach, don't see it in my main account, leave the money where it is.
My favorite way to save money is using coupons combined with items on sale. I also buy a lot of store brands and save money by eating at home and not at restaurants.
I have a large family - 8 of us live here with 3 high schoolers a grade schooler and a 21 year old - we haven't had a microwave in about 4 years. I don't miss it at all. My kids sometimes get nostalgic for things like frozen burritos that only taste right in the microwave evidently. ;-) I could not live without my cast iron pans (garage sale finds) and my Bunn coffee maker, my good knives, my microplane zester, my big stainless steel pans and my BIG le creuset dutch oven. What I like but could do with out is my stand mixer and my food processor. The dishwasher is wonderful but not 100% necessary. I agree with the lady that said - depends on your life -when my kids were all at home (we have 8) and we were running every night here and there it was a necessity. And my kids would pitch a fit if I got rid of the waffle maker - you can make cinnamon rolls in it (if you need it to have multiple uses). I love reading everyone's list!
My favorite way to save money is to use online deal sites to help me find great deals that combine weekly store sales with existing coupons for some great prices especially on groceries and basic household items.
A restaurant closed down and when I contacted Groupon for a credit they wrote me back stating that I should sue them (Groupon). Can anyone believe that!? When contacting them by phone they maintain this. The restaurant was in Los Angeles. It seems Groupon is hurting so much they might go out of business as they now have turned a nasty corner.

Haven't tried jasmine, but I've killed off several of the other four. I have also "euthanized" my share of snake plant (mother-in-law's tongue), philodendron and a variety of cacti.
I have more than one favorite ways to save money, so I wrote a blog post on it- http://www.monicajamer.com/2014/04/ways-love-save-money/
A couple are to make what you can, stop shopping and hide disposables. The ideas seem much more reasonable when laid out in the blog post, I swear!
I grow my own veggies.
Nice job, Ashley. We've talked about them all, repeatedly, for all the changing circumstances of our lives. Thanks for making it so clear.

My favorite save money is to purchase non perishable goods in bulk.
