Having trouble with children eating vegetables?  Try blending squash/zucchini/carrots in with spaghetti sauce (use less water, add veggies after browning meat).

Another Vegetable idea for carrots is to cut them with a crinkle cutter–makes children think they were made especially for them!

Add a little Spice to your coffee!  Try adding 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of cinnamon/nutmeg/vanilla directly into auto-drip coffee basket for some “spice-au-lait.”  Save on gourmet coffee prices!

Save money by making your own packets of Instant Oatmeal! Fill zipper-lock bags with 1/3 cup of oatmeal, brown sugar, and cinnamon.  Label with directions.  This is especially good for older children who get themselves off to school in the morning.
