in eat on 30, etsy, Food Challenge

Let me clarify…Not RaftingCrafting.  But I thought 2 c’s looked like one c too many.

So, crafting.  I’ve been trying to add things to my Etsy Shop, other than Custom Cookies.  I added French Macarons, which, yes, are still cookies…and I am very eager for someone to order a batch.  I priced them cheap compared to what you can buy them for in a bakery (if you can even find a bakery on your neck of the woods that sells them) – so, maybe I’ll get a sale or two from them pretty soon.

I also started making little Charms.  You could wear them on a necklace or bracelet, but my original thought was as a cellphone charm.  I see lots of folks personalizing their phones these days.  Personally, I made one for my Keychain.  There’s really a lot of things you could do with them though!  One gal ordered 10 of them from me yesterday for her Mini-Christmas Tree…what a cool idea!   Here’s what they look like…if you want some, head over to my Etsy Shop for details, or email me and we’ll work something out!

I also need to summarize yesterday, Day 5,  of the Eat on $30 Challenge.

Leftover Potato Soup all around for lunch and dinner.  Seven had a yogurt and Eggo for breakfast, and Milk.  No one paid for anything to drink, namely because we were out of drinks and water was acceptable versus driving to the store.  Total Spent?

     Less than $1.00.

How creative and cute! I think you should make a special apron too that you can hang the charms on. How fun!
