Trying a new format for my What I’m Reading roundups. In the roundups, I’ll pick only the best of the best and add my thoughts. If you still want to see the list I was doing before, you can check out my new and improved blog roll. Let me know what you think of the new format and what your preferences are.

The Local Cook shows us how to make formage blanc. It looks so easy. When I went on my tour of the Cowgirl Creamery in April, we each got a few full size products to take home and formage blanc was one of them. I just finished my tub earlier this week. It’s so good on a bagel in place of cream cheese or spread on crackers.

Cheap Healthy Good weighs in on food, finance, and judging others. Posts like this remind me that I’m very fortunately to be able to afford all of whatever type of food I could ever dream of wanting. It’s truly a luxury and I think most people in the same position often forget that.

At Finance for a Freelance Life, you can read about how Mrs. Micah is moving past wasteful frugality. I’m a big believe in enjoying quality items to the fullest. I’d rather have fewer, higher quality things that I use all the time than a house full of junk. Whatever you do, don’t buy the high quality stuff and then “save it” by also buying the junk and using that instead.

Get Rich Slowly suggests when you save money, actually put it in savings. I don’t always do this, but I do have a special ING account that I put “extra” money from things like stuff I sell on eBay in.

People are going nuts over this $149 Wii deal and the $199 Wii with free Wii Sports Resort deal but I think most people are missing the point that the standard Wii now always comes with Wii Sports Resort.
