Frugal Holidays

Having a family tradition for a holiday can be nice...and Frugal.
I make heart shaped pancakes  for Valentines Day breakfast.
Dirt cheap , I mean... very thrifty.
This year I also got strawberries on sale and used a coupon for choc. chips.
So chocolate cover Strawberries for a treat that evening.
Simple, easy and frugal.
