One year we didn't have much money, and I wanted to do something my husband would remember, so I went to the dollar store and bought a bunch of junk. Bear with me here, folks, it gets better! I got a whole box of kids Valentine's cards, a gigantic plastic grasshopper and a bunch of other stuff that I can't remember any more. I filled out the cards--ALL of them--to him with different holiday appropriate thoughts (nudge nudge, wink wink!) and then I sent him on a treasure hunt all over the property.

You made my day!
Your valentine was dandy.
But how'd you get
The chocolate
To stick on cherry candy?
Hey--thanks for the poem--made me feel special before Valentine's day! Ok, the chocolate covered cherries...Don't soak them in rum unless you really like rum. Hubby ate all he could handle, then took them to work. Got most of a dirt moving crew drunk on them...very bad when running heavy equipment. Anyway, vodka would probably be better. After you soak the cherries overnight, just dry them on a towel until they are tacky enough for the chocolate to adhere. I wish I could remember where I got the recipe, but it's simple.
I hope you post often! I really enjoyed your spin on being Thrifty :)
