Frugal Holiday

Since the beginning, I have banned the hubby from buying flowers on Valentine's Day
Just can't see spending all that money

So this year I challenged the boys to make their own.
What I got from my son is priceless.
He reused a heart shaped tin and put in treats for me.
What makes it super special, he gave up HIS candy for me.
I am truly touched.

I made his card, and Heart shaped Pancakes. He decreed it was he best breakfast ever.

Reused tin from years past.  Smart kid

53 cent breakfast

Eggs. 89 per dozen, one egg  about 7 cents (bought at Aldis)
Bread .99 cent, 1 slice 3 cents (Bakery outlet)
Butter for bread, 1.65 for 4 sticks of butter, 5 cents Tb, used for toast and frying pan (Aldis)
Juice 1..9 46 oz, 8 oz ,38cents (on sale at grocery store)

7+3+5+38 = 53 cents
And only took a few minutes to make

If I buy cereal on sale or with coupon and pay 1.99
Cereal, milk and juice are 65.5 cents per serving

Consider having breakfast for dinner one night.  Think of the money you will save
