Make a List. from clipart.com

That being said, I am STILL hitting my Copps tomorrow for a few things.

Transaction 1:
10 Bear Creek Pasta @$2.39
-(10) $1.00/1 coupons (doubled)
butter @$1.99
Final price? 5.89

    yes, less than stellar ad. Dannelle, do you buy inserts? I wish I had more bear creek coupons or even the $1/1 cereals.

    I did the activia yogurt last week - four 4 paks for free!

    Valentines day is coming next week, I want to splurge on a good meal. Maybe some steaks.

      I don't buy inserts but DO get a lot of coupons from people at church and occasionally swap with friends. The $1/1 cereal Qs were from the Box Top For Education site - they went FAST.

      Aldi has bacon wrapped tenderloins for $1.59 each (or was it $1.89....) they have been yummy! 5-6 ounces each.

      Wow, $1.59 for bacon wrapped anything is a good deal. Thanks for the heads up!

Cookie Exchange Parties are SO MUCH FUN - for a few simple reasons:You get together with your friends You make only ONE kind of cookie and finish your holiday baking, after swapping out You get new recipes You often have snacks or games! That being said, I do one every year - in December, about 2 weeks before Christmas. (You can read about it HERE or see a TV segment I did on it http://youtu.be/-iUR7GlAiQw ). I thought it would be fun to have a collection of 30 fun recipes to try - one a day in November - so you can be prepared for that holiday baking! Today's recipe idea comes from Book Cooking. net Ingredients 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup butter, softened 1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar 2 egg yolks 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Directions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Chili Dog Casserole

I know this sounds strange -- and yummy at the same time, LOL You need to know the family history to "get it". We are part German, part English, part Irish and part Tennessee Hillbilly. Seriously. Did you ever see that black and white movie of Gary Cooper's called Sergeant York? Yes, my family comes from the Dyer/Yorks -- same family. Some of the "family recipes" are too far out there for even me to try... But this is a pot luck favorite. SUPER Easy and SUPER Easy to make healthier. We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs
