<br />
I bet we all have some kind of leftovers in our fridge or freezer that could easily be added to a creamed soup. Just toss in some veggies and call it a meal.<br />
<br />
Homemade soups can be quite simple really.<br />
<br />
Shop in your own fridge and pantry for broth, meat and vegetables. Potatoes and cheese can easily turn boring ground beef into one of my favorite cold weather meals. <br />
<br />
This <a href="http://allrecipes.com/recipe/cheeseburger-soup-i/detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=cheeseburger%20soup&e8=Quick%20Search&event10=1&e7=Home%20Page" target="_blank">cheeseburger soup</a> is simple and satisfying, even for those men who 'don't eat soups.'

<br />
My husband and I went on our first date 5 years ago, yesterday technically. :)<br />
<br />
We ate at a restaurant that is now out of business and saw a movie that no one really watches anymore and only quotes sparingly. We, however, loved the food and thought the movie was great.<br />
<br />
If you've been around since the beginning of Tip Tuesday, by now, you're wondering where the Tip is hidden...<br />
<br />
Well here it is!<br />
<br />
Actually it's right here >>> Go on a 'Staycation!'<br />
<br />
By this point in the season, if you live in the Midwest, you're sick of the weather and all the fun holidays that make the weather bearable are over. <br />
<br />
You can sit around for six weeks waiting to see if you're as lucky as Glenn Coco or you can find something to do that's a heck of a lot more fun.<br />
<br />
Find something new to do in the town you live in, or the neighboring towns. Something that you have never done before, or a place you have never visited because "I'm from this town, why would I go there?"<br />
<br />
It could be a museum or a concert or even a new pizza place. <br />
<br />
It's doesn't have to be expensive, or take hours out of your schedule, it just has to happen.

<br />
I know the best savings tip. Ever.<br />
<br />
What is the best, most effective, super-duper, Christmas style, awesomest(Is that even a word? We don't care because we'll be saving so much money) money saving tip ever?<br />
<br />
Stay home! And don't shop electronically while you're there!<br />
<br />
Christmas has never been about money anyhow. Put away the credit cards, sit in the same room with someone and share about your lives. Watch Charlie Brown and It's a Wonderful Life while your husband does impressions of Jimmy Stewart just like the first Christmas you spent together. <3<br />
<br />
This is the gift you'll actually remember next year and ask for again.<br />
<br />
Merry Christmas.

<br />
Right in the middle of cold and flu season we travel to new places for holiday gatherings and see lots of new people, exposing us to lots of new germs.<br />
<br />
Don't wait until you have a problem that needs fixing. Stay preventative.<br />
<br />
Eat your favorite holiday treats on the buffet but don't completely skip the veggie trays and fruit salads or you may be sneezing in the new year. K.<br />

Not just for the summertime!<br />

<a href="http://www.dansfancity.com/techhelp/wntrsmmr.htm" target="_blank">Go here</a> to find out which way the fan should turn to help circulate the air in the winter. <br />
<br />
This goes right along with last weeks tip about turning down your thermostat. Have you tried it yet? Add in this ceiling fan tip to stay even warmer.

<br />
C'mon, it's only TWO degrees, you can do this!<br />
<br />
When you set your thermostat to 72 degrees or higher it causes heat strips to kick in...<br />
<br />
..It works harder. You pay more.<br />
<br />
It's December, stop trying to make it July inside. :) Buy some slippers, use a blanket, sit that warm laptop on your lap, long into your bank account online and decide how to budget your savings.

<br />
This doesn't have to be a ritual saved for school children who lug around smelly bologna sandwiches anymore. <br />
<br />
And packed lunches aren't just for school and work anymore either! When I'm out shopping with the babes, or even on the rare occasion I shop alone, I always pack enough snacks to make a meal. <br />
<br />
Leftovers can easily be taken to the park or any outdoor seating area. These are the fun days your kids will remember and be grateful for, unlike that time you let them super size their fries...<br />
<br />
Not only do you save money by packing your lunches, especially if you're using up leftovers (did you freeze those Thanksgiving leftovers?), but you save a lot of calories, and fat, and sugar, and salt, and I think you get the idea.

Nothing worth having comes easy.<br />
<br />
Have you heard this before? I've heard this plenty of times. But do you understand it? Do you really get it? Are you truly listening?<br />
<br />
Read it again: Nothing worth having comes easy.<br />
<br />
These 5 words can calm so many complaints. Bring peace during struggle. You're in pain now, not easy. The comfort you will feel later, worth it. You're tired now, not easy. The rest you will feel later, worth it. You're uncomfortable now, not easy. The confidence you will feel later, worth it.<br />
<br />

<br />
My husband is not my best friend, he is my <strong>husband</strong>. <br />
<br />
The word "husband" has lost some it's weight with the rise in divorce rates and the general mentality of the 'entitlement generation.' There is this idea that no human can be closer to me than my best friend so hopefully husband will be my best friend too. And that, like best friends, I can just find a new one when I come to a new season in my life.<br />
<br />
Wrong.<br />
<br />
Disclaimer: My best friends are amazing. But my best friends live out of state, they have missed important events in my life, like my wedding or the births of my children. Sometimes they don't call me back or respond to my texts. They don't help me raise my children, pay my bills or do the housework.<br />
<br />
<u>My husband is my <strong>husband</strong>.</u><br />
<br />
He is the provider for my family. He is my helpmate. He is the father of my children. He is the leader of our household. He will change with me and our family through each new season of life. <br />
<br />
Let's just say it. He's pretty awesome. :)<br />
<br />
<h2>
My husband is my husband. And I wouldn't have it any other way. K.</h2>

You can find cheap coloring books at dollar stores and in dollar spots that have all the same favorite Disney and Sesame Street characters as the more expensive coloring books found in the magazine aisles. This helped my toddler learn to turn pages without tearing them, while keeping her quietly entertained so I could make dinner many nights! K.<br />
