Children's Hard Cover Classics...10 for $14.99!

2012-01-27T07:55:00.000-06:00

When I was a student teacher, I was always on the lookout for great deals on books to build a classroom library. I ended up as an Elementary Science Specialist, so didn't use a lot of the books in my science classroom, but certainly was glad that I had them when my own children were born.

Here is a great deal on 10 classic children's books. They are all hardcover, which is fabulous! If you want to jump start your own library at home, or know a new teacher, these make a great gift too!

This is a list of the books that are included:

Mike Mulligan & the Steam Shovel
Lyle Lyle Crocodile
Curious George Gets a Medal
Bread and Jam for Frances
Goodnight Moon
A Little Prairie House
Paddington Bear at the Circus
The Berenstain Bears in the Dark
Richard Scarry's Bedtime Stories
Katy No-Pocket

Healthy Snack - Apples with Peanut Butter

2012-01-24T13:06:00.000-06:00

This has been one of my favorite snacks since I was in 2nd grade! That's a long time!

Evidently, my second grade teacher had suggested this as a healthy afternoon snack. My mother remembers that I came home one day wanting to try it! I loved it, and probably wanted it all of the time.

It is a snack that I have shared with all of my boys, and I think my youngest enjoys it the most. (Actually, my oldest loves it too, but hasn't been able to eat it this way while having braces the past two years!)

Super easy...all you need is an apple and a scoop (or 2) of peanut butter.

Cut the apple in half, cut out the seeds and the stems.
Place a scoop of peanut butter in each half.

Enjoy!

***If you (or your child) has braces, cut the apple in slices, place a scoop of peanut butter in a dish, and dip the apples in it.
***If you have peanut allergies, I am sure this would be delicious with other "butter" varieties (sunflower, almond, etc.)

Menu Plan Monday...week of January 23

2012-01-23T15:21:00.000-06:00

We finally have some measurable snow on the ground here! Unfortunately, the drizzling rain preceded it and made for some slippery driving. Thankfully, I didn't have to get anywhere this morning, but my husband did...rush hour is never fun, and certainly not when there has been snow! :(

Because of the weather, I am once again in the mood for comfort foods...soups and such, will be on my mind and menu this week.

MONDAY: Split Pea and Ham soup (with added tomatoes) -- after reading a friend's Facebook status this morning, I decided to make this today! Hopefully, it will not be greeted with too many groans...never a favorite with my children, but my husband loves it (and he had a hard drive today)!!! :)

TUESDAY: Sloppy Joe and/or Maid-Rite sandwiches (both fillings in freezer)

WEDNESDAY: Sandwiches, Diner's Choice

THURSDAY: Crockpot Black Bean Chili

FRIDAY: Tator Tot Hotdish (a family favorite---no activities tonight, I will actually have time to make this one!)

Last week, I tried a new recipe, Ham and Cheese Pot Pie. It was a change from your typical pot pie. I had the family rate it for me (1 - 5 stars). It received between 3 and 3.5 stars. I think I will make it again, but not in the near future!

Declutter my papers with a plate rack???!!!!

2012-01-18T12:59:00.002-06:00

I have a paper problem...

...and, as you can see, just a small corner of the kitchen is my "office"

I have been searching for quite a while for the perfect way to better organize my "office". The majority of files that need to be kept (and not accessed all of the time) are downstairs in storage, but I do need a way to keep the rest of the paperwork organized more efficiently. I did NOT want to spend much money on this either. So, I had a little "brainstorm". I thought I might be able to repurpose a plate rack display. I have seen these often at thrift stores, and never had any use for them as a plate rack, but if I could use them for organizing.....

Jack pot! I found one for $1.99 at Good Will the other day.

(I'm not quite sure if it technically was a plate rack, but it will work, I think!)

My idea is to get a few more (cute) folders, and organize my "plethora of papers" something like this:

I'm not finished yet....and hope to show you an "after" picture soon!

Scalloped Potatoes (with Ham)

2012-01-17T08:31:00.000-06:00

Scalloped potatoes...sometimes called creamed potatoes.

Definitely comfort food!

Scalloped potatoes (without the ham) is what we always have on Christmas with my side of the family. Yum. This past Christmas (a few weeks ago) we hosted our families at our house. It was very fun to be able to stay home and enjoy our families here. Christmas Eve with my husband's side, and Christmas Day with my family. I was in charge of the Scalloped potatoes. I was a little concerned about making them because my mother makes them without a recipe, and they turn out great! I was mentioning this to my sister (who wasn't going to be here for Christmas), and she told me exactly how she had fixed them.
I made them how she told me to, and they were wonderful!

So, last week I wanted to use some of the leftover Christmas ham which had been cubed and frozen, so I put scalloped potatoes on the menu.

This is how to make them.

Scalloped Potatoes (and Ham)
*5 pound bag of potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
*3 T. butter
*3 T. flour
*3 cups milk

Place the potatoes in a large pot, making sure they are covered with water, by a half inch or so. Once water is boiling, turn to low and simmer until tender, approximately 20 - 25 minutes.
In a separate pan, melt the butter. Stir in the flour, a little at a time, over low to medium heat. Add the milk to the flour/butter mixture, one half cup at a time. The sauce will begin to thicken. Make sure you are stirring constantly and watch carefully as this can easily burn/scorch on the bottom of the pan. Boil for a couple of minutes. If you would rather do this in the microwave, you can use a microwave safe bowl, and heat for a minute at a time.
When the potatoes are tender, drain and place into one large casserole, or 2 smaller casseroles.

Pour the white sauce over the potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir.

Keep them plain, or add cubed ham to the potatoes.

Bake in a 350* oven for 30 minutes.

Purex and Jockey team up for a Giveaway!

2012-01-11T10:36:00.005-06:00

If you saw my last Purex posting, you know that I mentioned I would be writing more about Purex in the next few days because I am part of the Purex Insider program. Purex has lots of exciting things happening these days!
One of the new things is the partnership between Jockey and Purex.

Purex revealed their fabulous Purex Crystals fabric softener last year, and I LOVE them! After Purex came out with them, another big named laundry company (remaining unnamed here) revealed their product which is similar, but much more expensive!

Purex products continue to be a frugal choice for my laundry needs!

Because of the wonderful qualities of Purex Crystals, Jockey trusts them to clean their new sports bras, with moisture wicking technology.

The Purex Crystals do NOT contain softening oils (as liquid fabric softeners do) and therefore they are safe for fabrics with moisture wicking capabilities.
Purex Crystals are also safe with fire retardent fabrics (like children's sleepwear).

Purex and Jockey sent me a full-size bottle of the Tropical Splash Purex Crystals, and a Jockey Tech Terry Performance sports bra to try. I LOVE the Purex Crystals. The Tropical Splash scent is a pleasant change from the Lavendar (my favorite). The sports bra is very nice...unfortunately quite snug (I would recommend getting a size larger than you normally wear), but has great breathable material, and a little hidden key pocket (great if you use a fitness center locker)!
Purex and Jockey are generously offering one of my readers the chance to also receive the great package also.

All you have to do is sign up here:
***Thanks to all who entered. This contest is now closed.***

The contest will close on Wednesday, January 18 at 10 p.m. (CST)
If you are reading this post in an e-mail or a feed reader and cannot see the form, please go here.
(Don't worry, your name and e-mail address will not be posted, they are only for me to use to contact you if you should win!)
All of you can be winners also, by receiving a 20% off coupon for Jockey.

Menu Plan Monday...week of January 9

2012-01-09T08:56:00.002-06:00

What a fun weekend of basketball for our family!
All 3 boys played in tournaments this weekend, and all three of them came home with a trophy or medal. We got a chuckle out of the fact that they placed in birth order also...our oldest got 1st place, our middle son got 2nd place and our youngest took 3rd place! :D

Now, what should this mom feed these hungry boys this week? Here is my plan:

MONDAY: Spaghetti Pie

TUESDAY: Sloppy Josephs (because lean ground turkey is on sale at Target)--I will make enough to freeze enough for at least another meal

WEDNESDAY: Sandwiches, Diner's Choice (this is our "church night" meal)

THURSDAY: Crock Pot Chili

FRIDAY: Scalloped (Creamed) Potatoes with Ham
This is what we had on Christmas Day. It is a childhood tradition. I was so pleased with how they turned out (it's usually my mother that makes them)! I will have to write up the recipe and post it later on.

SATURDAY and SUNDAY: I usually don't write up a menu plan because we typically have take-out pizza on Saturday nights. Sunday is often YOYO (you're on your own), or perhaps, if I'm feeling ambitious, I will make Surprise Pancakes.

Purex Triple Action Detergent Review

2012-01-08T20:17:00.001-06:00

I really like Purex laundry detergent. I always have, even before I became a part of the Purex Insiders program.
So I was excited when my doorbell rang and I had a package waiting for me. A package from Purex with a full-size sample of the new formula...
Purex Triple-Action Detergent.

A quote from Purex, "This new and improved Triple Action formula delivers even better on Purex’s promise to leave your clothes bright, white, and clean, and as always, for half the price of the leading brand!"

I started using it right away, and I am happy to say (and not surprised), that it worked great! The Mountain Breeze scent is pleasant, and it also comes in a "Free and Clear" version which is great for those of you that might not be able to have any fragrances in your detergents.
I can't neglect to mention that this detergent is safe for HE machines too!

Purex consistently remains to be a great value, and they make it even better by offering frequent coupons.

Speaking of coupons, make sure you are subscribed to "2 Make Ends Meet", as I will be hosting a giveaway (actually a few of them) for Purex in the next few weeks! Yay!

As a Purex Insider, I received a free sample of Purex Triple-Action Detergent to review. The opinions written are entirely my own.

Clearing Cord Clutter...frugally, of course!

2012-01-06T10:12:00.000-06:00

I just had a great idea this morning...what is the saying, "necessity breeds creativity?"

Well, maybe it's more like, "annoyance breeds creativity" for me. Annoyance at the amount of cords and wires that were hanging around my "much too small" computer area.

As you can see, this little computer desk is a perfect fit for the small space it is in, but there is hardly enough room for the monitor, printer, speakers, wireless router, mouse pad, etc.....
You can only imagine how cluttered it gets when the boys (and on occasion, me) leave their cords for their ipods, or camera (me) on it also.

The "aha moment"....
I ran downstairs to my overflowing supply of gift wrapping items, and returned with:

If you look close enough you can see that is is so "professionally" attached with packing tape.

It's my Frugal Friday moment.

Be creative, look around at what you already have at home, repurpose it, and you don't have to spend a dime!
