Money Saving Ideas:  Birtday Parties

1. Make your own cake
2. Set a food decoration station in the kitchen. My oldest was born in December so for one of her birthdays the kids decorated Christmas cookies. I've also heard of having kids make english muffin pizzas, sundae bar, or decorate cupcakes
3. Get invitations and thank you notes from Dollar Tree
4. Get plates, napkins, silverware at Dollar Tree or other Dollar Stores
5. Ideas for gift bags: pick up boxes of crayons when they go on back-to-school sales, suckers, look at Dollar Tree or Target $1.00 rack for other little toys. Last year I added tiny bottle of fingernail polish. Markers or play dough are also nice. My dd went to one party and they gave out whoopie cushions.
6. It's cheaper if you go to Chuck-E-Cheese and have a party hosted by yourself. Go early and get a nice table, and bring your own cake in. Look for coupons in the Sunday paper for pizza and token deals.
7. Oriental Trading Company has nice craft ideas and also have goodies for a gift bag.
8. Host a slumber party

What's Cooking:  Shrek Soup

1 lb. hamburger, cooked and drained
3-5 medium potatoes (or as many as you think everyone will eat) peeled and cubed
1-2 cans of green beans
2-15 oz. cans tomato sauce (or more depends on how much you like it to have a strong tomato taste)
salt and pepper

In large soup pot, boil potatoes until they just start to get cooked (poke with a knife). Drain water,
reserving it for later. Add potatoes back into pot, and add hamburger, green beans with liquid and tomato
sauce. Add potato water until the soup is the right tomato taste for you. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Heat until everything is hot.

I actually got this from my mom. She use to make it all the time when we were kids, it never really had a
name. I named it Shrek Soup one night when the kids where watching the movie (the first one) and Shrek was
just sitting down to eat dinner. I called everyone to dinner and the kids all turned their noses up at it
and said that they didnt like it. My five year old asked what it was so I just quickly named it Shrek Soup.
Once it had a name, they all tried it and liked it. -- Member araefinn
