Nancy is the winner of the second Surviving and Thriving giveaway. She snared herself a copy of “The Coupon Mom’s Guide To Cutting Your Grocery Bills in Half” plus three tins of Godiva Chocolate Pearls.

Thanks to all who entered. Here’s a little hint about the next giveaway: It’s a tie-in with the upcoming “Sex and the City 2” (opening May 27) and it is a member of the jewelry family. Other than that, I’m not saying a word.

But maybe I should add a second prize, of something in the chocolate family?

A recent post of mine, “Calypso bread,” was selected for the 280^th Festival of Frugality, published over at Penniless Parenting. The festival theme is “forethought,” as in “expenses that could have been avoided, or at least reduced with just a bit of forethought.” Go over and see for yourself.

I’ve got a guest post up at FatWallet.com, the cashback/hot deals site. “8 ways to save money with…a kitchen timer?” proves that timers are good for more than just preventing meatloaf fires.
