I don't know about many of y'all, but being a single income family, on a sole first responder income, we are definitely on a budget.
This was a huge adjustment (first world problems, I know!) going from being able to do much of anything I cared to do to not being able to (& I was never a big spender).
One of my favorite treats in the winter months are hot chocolates from either Panera (because of their chocolate chip marshmallows!) or Starbucks. But, at upwards of $3-4 dollars for a cup, that just wasn't happening anymore!
I've been experimenting with new recipes at home.
My favorite so far:
- 2 packets of Swiss Miss ($1.04 for a box of 10 packets at Target!)
- 10 kraft jet puffed french vanilla snowman marshmallows
- 3 mini peppermind candycanes
- hot water
(I want to get some hot fudge to mix in with it!)
