I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices. My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.
This is my toddler’s favorite birthday present — a set of Fisher Price Sweet Street houses I bought at a garage sale for $15. Score!

Aren’t garage sales the coolest! You did score, big time! She looks like she is having so much fun!

That is a garage sale score if you got all of them for $15.00. Wow! She does look super happy with all of them, her own little fantasy pretend town.
