Mod post

Hi there! We've had a whole heap of new members come along. Welcome!

I've had some privacy concerns raised. From now on, membership is on moderated status. Also, please make any posts with personal financial details f-locked (I won't force you to, but some community members can't participate without that. Something to keep in mind. I won't be posting f-locked as there has to be something for folks who are just watching the community to read.)

Please let me know if you have any other suggestions for the improvement of the community!

Upcoming attractions:
A challenge a month. The first challenge? Cook dinner (or don't have take-away) every night for a month.

Also, I'm going to do another goal post.

Maybe if we keep the recipes corralled so they don't run wild... Like a few tagged posts, maybe sticky or linked in the sidebar, which people can refer to, or add more recipes, whenever the topic comes round.

Possible topics of posts or tags might be like:
Cheapest possible good nutrition
FrugalFood Vegan
FrugalFood Carnivore
FrugalFood All-Natural/Organic
Food sharing & community sourcing
FrugalFood allergen-free
FrugalFood basics, tips & tricks

What do y'all think?

I think, to be friendly for noobs, I'll do a post once a week. But people can add recipes to that. That way it's an ongoing project.

I'll need to think about the tags. I will have distinctions between vegan,vegetarian and omnivore. But a lot of my soup recipes can be vegetarian with one substitution (vegetable stock for chicken stock) and vegan with two (olive oil for butter)--surely people can adapt stuff for their own purposes!
