Before the boys got older they could order off the kids menu, not anymore. They all eat off the adult menu and the prices are double the price on the kids menu. When we go to a fast food restaurant it costs our family between thirty and forty dollars!! Yikes!! Pizza is a much more affordable eating out food. lol Laura Reasons to Move - Blog Entry08 May 2008 06:07 AM It is a pretty rough market right now. What I am seeing though is that you can get a nice home for a great price. Good info. Laura Frugal Mother's Day - Blog Entry06 May 2008 01:12 PM About 10 years ago my husband bought my mother and I a day at the spa. It was so wonderful. That day has left me with great memories of my mom. Another wonderful gift I got was the last Mother's Day with my mom. We just had a simple meal of burgers and dogs on the grill. Sometimes it doesn't even need to cost money.....memories are free!!! Laura Not Reading Labels Cost Me Money - Blog Entry03 May 2008 11:11 AM Oh that is a real bummer!! Anchovies in ranch dressing? I try and buy organic salad dessing b/c it doesn't have MSG. Giant's organic ranch dressing is really good. I think I bought it for $2.39 this morning. Laura My Pseudo Cell Phone - Blog Entry03 May 2008 11:06 AM I found that pesky cell phone!! It was right where I said it was; in the van. lol The boys were very happy. ;o) Laura Nintendo Teaches You to Drive - Blog Entry03 May 2008 11:05 AM Mary Ann, I am actually hoping that the state changes the law regarding the driving age. There has been a lot of talk about it in recent years. Laura Nintendo Teaches You to Drive - Blog Entry03 May 2008 04:53 AM My oldest son and I were just talking about when he would get his license. I was thinking that he would have to take a drivers ed course. In my opinion, I think this would be good for him. He is definitely a video game head and he would be learning how to drive at the same time. lol Of course there is nothing like getting behind the wheel to get real experience. I wonder if this Nintendo game would actually help cut your insurance a bit. Laura My Pseudo Cell Phone - Blog Entry02 May 2008 07:04 AM I have a cell phone and I can never find it. lol My sons like to grab it for me and then lose it. Right now, I have no clue where my cell phone is and I could really use it today. To be honest I think it is in the van which is the shop. Oh geez! lol Laura Incorporating Freezer Cooking into Your Life - Blog Entry01 May 2008 03:28 AM Mary Ann, As you know we have three big boys here that like to eat. When they were little I was able to do what you do but now that they are big I can't. It seems I need to make more food to fill them. An example would be that I used to be able to use a 1.3 pounds of ground turkey for any dinner. Now, I've got to use over 2 pounds of turkey to feed the family. With food prices so high I am only able to buy enough food for the week. I did a mini freezer cooking day in March and I used our income tax money to buy the supplies for that. lol Great ideas!! I used to make extra spaghetti sauce and meatballs to throw in the freezer. That was always a good no fail meal to pop out of the freezer. Laura Is Shopping at Wal-Mart Frugal? 2 - Blog Entry24 Apr 2008 04:29 PM Beings that my hubby is in the union we tend to stay away from Wal-Mart. In fact, it is affectionately known as the "W" store around here. My oldest doesn't even like going into the store. One day he actually sat out in the van refusing to go in. I have to respect his opinion. Laura 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 |
