Posted on April 24, 2022April 24, 2022 by teresamunoz91

I’ve been going to the Boysenberry Festival at Knott’s Berry Farm since it started and I was so happy to go back! Here are a few of the food and drinks I tasted while I was there.

Took my daughter om my second trip to the Boysenberry Festival

Here is the tasting card for this year’s Boysenberry Festival

My favorite drink was the boysenberry icee float with boysenberry soft serve

Also got boysenberry BBQ sauce meatballs with mashed potatoes, elote, acai bowl, boysenberry pie bar, boysenberry rocky road brownie, and a boysenberry mudslide.

I’m pretty happy with my choices, everything tasted so good.

Got the boysenberry beef grilled cheese with fries on my second trip

Challenge, Low Buy

Update on My Low Spend Year

Posted on February 28, 2022 by teresamunoz91

I am 2 months in to my low buy year and I am doing just okay. I am not doing as awful as previous years, but I am still buying unnecessary things unfortunately. I would give myself a C for now.

One good thing though is that I have cut back on buying things for my business. Last year I spent close to $4,000 on supplies like fragrance oils, mica, clays etc. A lot of it wasn’t even necessary. I bought so many ingredients that I can’t even remember what they were for and they have just been on my shelf all this time.

I have only bought myself one clothing item and it was a tshirt that I bought for the Knott’s Berry Farm Peanuts Celebration. I have bought my daughter 3 shirts, which isn’t too bad. I think I should definitely be able to get through March without buying her anymore clothes or myself. Though I might us shirts for Knott’s Berry Farm Boysenberry Festival, if they are cute.

I have done a good job of not buying soap or whipped soap. Last year I bought way too much and ended up giving away so much of it to my local Buy Nothing group.

I have also bought some books from the library. I think I have spent about $20 total, which isn’t much, but each book was 25 to 50 cents, so I ended up buying a lot of books. To be honest, i don’t have much space for them, but I couldn’t pass up the good deals and had to add them to my collection of books. I think I have somewhere between 600-800 books from my childhood collection.

Next month I will try to be more intentional with my purchases. Target and Amazon are two places where I have spent too much money, so my goal is to cut back on shopping there.
