Love reading about your new house and all the decorating/organizing project. You may have to start a new blog that’s all about your home design .

Very tasty. My husband is a big fan of no bake cookies. He said these are a great substitute. I LOVE the fact that they are much healthier with honey instead of sugar.

This sounds so yummy and easy. Oh, if only I had had it when my son was little. Thanks for sharing!

Gonna try this quick snack for sure! Especially on the missed nap days! And I love that you hide your daughters snacks in her room from the others. Great way to save money ;o)

Comment on New Food Budget Recommendations by Joquena

I used to shop for almost everything at Aldi… I miss it. I’ve had to triple our food budget because we’ve switched to organics due to my health problems. I’m feeling better physically, but i get sticker shock every time I check out! We’re starting seeds indoors right now to grow as much organic food as possible this spring!!! We can’t afford NOT to garden

Hi Tanya, That budget amount just includes food. We have a $20 hygeine budget to cover things like diapers (if I feel like I can’t do cloth), shampoo, kleenex and other paper products, bandaids, deodrant, hairspray, etc. For a family of 8 that is inadequate, so I have a few little tricks so I don’t have to buy as many of these types of items.

I’ll admit Aldi is a special store. Without it Graham crackers are a lot higher. But it does help that America encourages a ton of competition and that we also have generic brands. They package up name brand items in a different package and charge less for it.
