IN THESE ECONOMIC "HARD" TIMES

My kids have to endure my listening to Fox Business Channel when its "mom's turn" to watch the TV. I guess some of the resent discussions of the economic "hard" times has rubbed off. This is how my children are helping J and I save money.

They ask for this stuff at least 3X's a week! I give in once a week...OK maybe twice! I think I am still trying to recover from living on this stuff in college. YUCK! I don't even like the smell of it. But on the good side its only $.17 per bag, ready in 3 minutes and when I give in to their request I get to eat Frosted Shredded Wheat! YUMMMM! Now that sounds good!

Is there any nutritional value in Ramen? I'll just have to give an extra vitamin on those nights!

So glad I finally found you! I am still getting over Ramen as well. I need to re-introduce my kids to them-no need for them to do without "the good stuff" because mommy is over it! Great Blog!

You left out "meat sticks". Add that with your ramen noodles and you have a low budget, high preservative meal.

(BTW- if Chandler knows you have the noodles and the meat sticks, he may very well move in with you.)
