In my “pennywise” search I’ve really gotten into the nitty-gritty of cooking in a thifty manner. However, I don’t feel like this is the place for it. As a result, I’ve partnered with my dear friend and frugal cooking mentor, Laura to create www.3rdworldfood.blogspot.com.

Laura is an adoptive mom like me, and has kids from several countries. To continue to teach her kids about their birth-cultures, Laura has become a master of ethnic cooking from Africa, India and Asia (yes, I know India is a part of Asia, but you’d never know if from the food, so I’m separating them for culinary purposes!).

My friend Laura has also discovered that foods from these cultures are very affordable and generally enjoyed by everyone in her very large family.

Don’t worry, Pennywise Family isn’t going anywhere. We’re just adding 3rdWorldFood as another place to go for cooking-specific info.

Thanks!
