I got a latte, a kid's cocoa for DD, two rice krispy treats and an iced latte for a friend today at Starbucks. $8.70 right there. I know their treats are waaaaayyyyyyyyyy overpriced and yet I still buy them sometimes. I do much better when I make treats at home - they don't look nearly as appealing when we're out if we've already had some at home, or if I know we have some waiting for us.
We had dinner with some friends this evening and contributed bread and a salad to the meal. It was a good evening, though both of our kids stayed up a little too late. They had a good time together, and we adults enjoyed the chance to talk and linger over dinner and dessert.
My parents will be here tomorrow and I have nothing planned as far as dinner goes. I'll be going to the store again - I was just there this evening, picking up salad fixings and bread for tonight's dinner. Actually, I need to plan something for them for Saturday night and something for DH and I to take to a potluck coed baby shower we're going to. I think I'll use time tomorrow morning while DD is in her drawing class to make a list and do some planning. Either that, or use the time to go walking and make the list in my head (and write it down afterwards). I haven't done any exercise other than yoga in way too long.
