How is eating frosted flakes for a week so I can make just one more loan?

Switch to Special K and the 'storebrand'.  It's bound to better for you so you'll be healthier and can make loans longer!   Cheesy

enjoyed your post, gave me a chuckle!

Impressive!  Did you know you can buy your frosted flakes in bulk through Amazon and a) save more money, so you have more to lend and b) have a portion go to KivaFriends?  I just found out about this myself Cheesy

Hello, Jane!!!!

Now I really feel all warm and fuzzy.  What a wonderful group of people.  Can I keep you?  Grin  Just took my "frosted Flakes money" and made another small loan.  I am not very knowledgeable about choosing, but how can anyone go wrong when their whole purpose is to help others?

Thanks again for the warm welcome!!!

Jo
