Some will make fun of the frugal person (as you know). But, something that seemed "too extreme" a year ago, might sound just right now. I hope that some of the doubters that find their way to your blog will stick around long enough to learn something.mikemaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06569666073239903588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-42585823748568360472016-01-27T17:21:19.777+00:002016-01-27T17:21:19.777+00:00All this great press and positive outpouring of go...All this great press and positive outpouring of goodwill couldn't happen to a nicer, more hard working person. In the long run you'll not only convert people to your frugal and healthy way of life, but you'll inadvertently help save our fragile planet along the way. Keep up the good work Ilona. As for the trolls out there, some people get nasty when they see others going along in life doing what's right for them and ignoring those that don't agree. Those with low self esteem will lash out to try to bring you down to their level (because 'misery loves company'). Haha - they haven't followed your blog and don't realize you stopped giving a rat's heinie about what other people think long ago. Onward and upward.
