I cut the cord nearly a decade ago, before cutting the cord was a common term.
Everyone thought I was nutz! I am ok with that!
Otherwise, we cook as much as we can, at home, from scratch.
Re-purpose things as much as possible.
Grow as much of our own food as possible. Some years are better than others.
We read alot. I get going to a library, but I prefer to own my books.
