The Marble Story

fb iconpinterest icontwitter iconlinkedin iconbuffer icon

A friend of mine once said to me,
This marble is for you.
Cause I was sure I had lost all of mine.
When life became so blue.
For now I know despite the odds,
My marbles may be few.
But this friend of mine reminded me,
Life can be wonderful too.
So here’s a marble just for you,
And only for some fun.
So when you think you’ve
“lost your marbles” you know…
You have at least one

👩‍🍳 About the Author

Melissa "Liss" Burnell started Budget101.com in 2001 because she needed it to exist — not because she saw a market opportunity. She was feeding a family of four on under $200 a month, and people kept asking how, so she started writing everything down.

That turned into 25 years of recipes, debt-busting strategies, and DIY content — including figuring out how to make 128 loads of laundry detergent for less than $2. Millions of families have quietly used this site to stretch a dollar without feeling like they're sacrificing anything. She's also the author of two bestselling budget cooking ebooks, available on Amazon.
