In honor of Saturday, Nov. 7's, frugality forum at the Edendale Library, Chicken Corner will be conserving its words (in this entry only!) ... because hereabouts we don't buy the notion that talk is cheap.

Some Saturdays the Edendale branch has classical music.

Here's info, emailed by Niels Bartels, librarian:

We'll be having a frugality forum at the Edendale Branch of the Los Angeles Public Library this weekend. It will be an open discussion on doing more with less. Bring your money-stretching tips, your challenges, and your questions to ask.

Saturday, November 7th, 1-3 p.m.; 2011 W. Sunset Blvd., L.A. 90026; (213) 207-3000; there's parking behind the library.

It promises to be rich.
