So it’s Friday.  And I’m feeling frugal.  Hence the title.

I have discovered the two secret ingredients that lead to great innovation:
an empty bank account and laziness.

Think about it.

The inventor of the remote control?  Come on.  That dude did not set out to change the world – he just didn’t want to get off his butt to change the channel.

So I confess the same.  The future ideas for Frugal Friday that I will share with y’all were inspired because I was being stingy thrifty.  Or I just wanted more time to chill on the couch. So should that be Frumpy Friday? Or Fritter-away Friday? Or should I just wait a day and call it Slothful Saturday.  Hmmmm.  I’ll give it a tink and get back to ya.

I’ve been perusing lots of DIY websites, and they all include a lot of pictures. And because this idea is soooo complex, I’m going to show you, in detail, how to do this Fantastically Frugal Friday Feat.

Go get a green and yellow kitchen sponge.  Ya know, the kind with the scrubby on one side and smoothie on the other (just don’t drink it). Then get a cute pair of scissors.  If they’re ugly, throw them out and go get a fun pair.  I’ll wait.

Now here comes the really hard part – cut (using only cute scissors) one sponge into three!  I’m including lots of detailed pictures to help.

I must confess that this project didn’t start because of frugaling or frittering. I simply find that the smaller sponges fit better in my hand and get into the creases of my pots and pans better.  And then I can toss them when they start to get schmengy.

Now friends, go fritter away your fabulous Friday!
