The Sunshine Blog Award
I started Canadian Budget Binder at the end of January 2012 in hopes of sharing what we have learned about saving money and budgeting. It’s been so much fun thus far and I’ve chatted to so many people and made some great mates along the way.
I’ve been inspired by many bloggers who put their time on hold if not just for a couple of minutes a day to help out someone new to the blog world like me. In two months now I’ve had almost 10,000 views on my blog and I couldn’t be happier. It’s important for everyone to budget and I want to show them they can do it.
I want to thank Dennis Dennehy at What to Cook for motivating me to cook new and exciting meals whilst going back to basics. I think so many people have forgotten that convenience never used to be part of the dinner table back in the day. We need to bring back all the goodness that once graced our mouths and our stomach!
Thank- you so much What to Cook for nominating Canadian Budget Binder for The Sunshine Award, this truly is a part of who I am, sharing my passion!

Congrats to you! You’ve built a very enjoyable blog and a HUGE list of fans in a very short period of time. I am so grateful that you reached out to me by email the first weekend I started my blog. It has been great getting to know you.
Thank you for including me in this award program! I am very honored to be a part of it 🙂
I do have a question – why in Britian do the refer to dinner as Tea? As you say, you drink a lot of tea. Don’t you get confused if someone asks you if you want tea?
Canadianbudgetbinder says
You are so very welcome. So many people have helped me get my foot off the ground that it’s important to give back. Cheers Mr.CBB Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
