Drinking WATER

Okay I know how much people hate to drink water. I have been drinking more water. It not only is cheaper but it is good for your body and helps weight loss.

A glass of soda is on sale here for .64
The same glass of water is less than a penny or for me free because it is included in my rent.
I also have bought a filter pitcher for $24 to help the taste. I love the way the water taste. I also bought a reusable cup and water bottle. This saves our resources. It means there is less in the landfills.
A glass of water has zero calories. A soda has 500 calories. Then the chemicals that you are putting in your body. So drink a glass of water instead of the soda.

We don't know how many other health benefits having water helps you.

Homemade Orange Sherbet

My daughter reminded me of a summer favorite. It is starting to get warm here.

I put all of this in a large Tupperware bowl and pop it in the freezer. I take it out and shake it every half hour till frozen.

2 cans Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
6 (10 oz.) orange soda pop or 1 - 2 liter

Pour orange soda into ice cream freezer and add Eagle Brand milk. Stir it up with long handle spoon and freeze. NOTE: Any flavor soda can be used for variations of flavor.

You could use generic sweetened condensed milk. I use the 2 liter. Strawberry is good too. I figure it is .59 for the generic soda and .99 for each can of generic milk so not a bad treat.

Scratch and Sniff Paint

I saw this recipe for paint that is scratch and sniff

You take 1 package of Kool aid (generic will do) add 1 tbs water. You can paint with it and it smells good.

This could be some cheap rainy day fun! Be aware that it may stain so be careful with it.
