BIG NEWS
Sooo... you know how you've been asking if/when/where is there going to be a Budget Bytes book?IT'S FINALLY GOING TO HAPPEN!
Yay! As of yesterday, a book is officially going to be made. I'm partnering up with Avery (part of Penguin) to make the first Budget Bytes cookbook and I CAN'T WAIT to get started.
That's all the info I have to share for now, unfortunately, as all of the details still need to be worked out. Rest assured, I'll keep you up to date and let you know just as soon as you can get your hands on one!
ALSO
Perhaps you've noticed that the blog is looking a little "cleaner" this afternoon? I decided it was time to shape things up around here, so I've got a brand new design ...but not so different that you'll feel lost or alienated. Updated, but familiar. Ahhh... so fresh and so clean, clean, clean!
BIG THANKS to Jacquelinne at Smitten Blog Designs for helping me iron out the design details and get the coding done (I don't speak CSS). I love it!
That's all for now, peeps!
XOXO
Beth

Congratulations. Your food blog is the few -- if only -- one that really needs to be made into a cookbook. Keep us posted so I can pre-order.
Yay Beth! My husband and I have been going to your website every week since March --- we love it! We have not only eaten delicious food all summer, but we have actually reduced spending on groceries by sticking to a weekly menu. We look forward to more details about your book. Congratulations!
I just started following your blog, and I have had success with every single recipe I have tried. I have never bought the book from a blog I follow, but I have a feeling your book will be worth it. I'm excited to buy the book to support your fabulous blog.
Thanks SO much for your blog. It has revolutionized the way I cook (as a single mom working her way through nursing school).
