To celebrate our new Money Tree blog theme (if you’re reading this post in a reader, come and check it out!), I thought I would post a facetious poem that Madoline wrote a while back. The quote in our new header comes from the first line of this poem titled ‘Tis Not a Crime to Pinch a Penny.

‘Tis Not a Crime to Pinch a Penny by Madoline Hatter ‘Tis not a crime to pinch a penny A single cent’s as good as any Of the hundred that’s a dollar A hundred being only taller A cent to none is surely better For you are that much less a debtor.

For anyone who is curious, the images in our new theme were also designed by Madoline. The Money Tree graphics in varying stages of leaf and bloom, are available on a variety of merchandise such as mugs, cards, t-shirts and more in Our Fourpence Worth Store.
