Phew! It’s hot out there….and it’s getting hotter.  Throughout the summer here in DFW, there will be days where the heat is just too unbearable.  Here are some unique ways to spend quality family time together INDOORS!

*Build a fort

It’s a classic throwback activity from a time before electronics ruled our lives.  Grab your pillows, blankets, sheets and towels and get creative with the family!  Create a fort, fill it with pillows, stuffed animals, games, snacks, and flashlights, then prepare to have some serious snuggle time and fun with the kids! A great accent for any fort is fun lights!  These battery operated LED string lights change colors and can create a really fun ambiance.

*Camp in the living room or backyard

There aren’t any bugs in your living room, and the A/C can keep you cool.  Move the couches and set up your camping tents and lawn chairs for a campout in your home!  These adorable kids camping chairs are the perfect way to gather around in a circle to tell ghost stories, share a pizza or play games like 20 questions or Truth or Dare.  You could also play musical chairs, duck duck goose and other fun games that don’t require a lot of space.  These pop up tents are a great alternative to a real camping tent. When you’re ready to lay down, pull out those sleeping bags and “campout” in the living room!  The FREE Relax Melodies app on Android or iTunes can play nature sounds to help create the mood.

*Game Night

Grill up some burgers and pull out those board games for a family game night!  Have each member of your family choose their favorite game, then play one round of each game. Another fun idea to add to game night is prizes! Create fun little goodie bags filled with inexpensive treats and candy (like these packs of party favors!) and let each winner pick their own.  You can also create your own games – kids are amazingly creative when it comes to making up games of their own!

*Retro Movie Marathon

Kids can watch the same movies over and over again.  Why not introduce them to your favorite movies from your childhood with a retro movie marathon?  There are awesome movie compilations from the 80s starting at only $10 for eight movies. Load up The Goonies, E.T., The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and Secret of Nimh are some great starters.  Pop some popcorn, lay down pillows and blankets and crank up the A/C for a fun and lazy day of nostalgia and relaxation.

*Indoor obstacle course

An indoor obstacle course may not be feasible for some families, but you don’t need a lot of space to get creative!  Use hallways, furniture and even the bathtub to create a course inside your home.  Set up stuffed animals, toys and dolls as the cheering crowd.  Lay down a Twister game mat and have each child jump from one color to the next.  If you have a long hallway, put on socks and see how far you can slide before you stop.  Use pillows as stepping stones, a jump rope for a finish line, pots and pans instead of traffic cones, and old cardboard boxes as tunnels.  Get creative with the things you have around your home!

*Crafts & art projects

Whip out those crayons, construction paper, glitter and stickers!  Crafts and art projects can keep kids entertained for hours.  Ask them to create a greeting card of their own for grandma and grandpa.  Buy Craft Kits appropriate for their ages.  Let them design clever door hangers or signs for their bedroom doors.  You can find tons of great kid crafting ideas online, or come up with your own creative ideas for super cheap!

*Cook or bake

If your kids are budding chefs and bakers, why not have a fun day in the kitchen together. Not only will they learn about cooking and baking, the time spent together will create last memories for them.  Plus, they can be creative and feel accomplished once they’ve completed their meals!  Consider planning an entire dinner – with appetizers, salad, main course and dessert.  Let the kids pick what they want to cook, grab the ingredients and start cooking together.  This is a great opportunity to let them feel proud of what they’ve done when it’s all set out on a table (time for the fancy china!?) and they see their amazing meals ready for the family!

 

*Throw a party

You don’t need a holiday or birthday to throw a party.  Call it a “Family Summer Party” or make up a fun name that fits your family.  Cook foods everyone loves, and create a self-serve table filled with their favorite goodies.  Use paper plates to eliminate dishes (who wants to do dishes when there is a party going on!?).  Stop by Five Below or Party City for decorations, a piñata, and more inspiration for your party.  Turn on Pandora and let loose with dancing to really kick it up a notch!

What are your favorite family indoor activities?

Who doesn’t love a good bargain? There might be discounts, coupons and other ways to save that you might be overlooking!  Finding savings in coupons you get from your Sunday paper, or the deals we post online is pretty easy.  But there are a lot of other options that get passed by. From now on, keep your eyes open to these great ways to save:

1. Customer Surveys. Taco Bell, Chick-fil-A, and Subway are just three companies that entice you to take a survey with the promise of a reward. Many retail outlets and restaurants want the feedback and are willing to reward you for it!

2. Rebates & Coupons on Packages. “Peelies” are great coupons stuck to products.  You might even find a rebate attached, as well.  Compare the prices of the products, and if you can get a better deal with a mail-in-rebate or coupon, grab it!

3. Ticket stubs. Here in Texas, our sports are everything!  The next time you attend a Cowboys game or any other event or concert, be sure to keep your ticket!  The back of your ticket stub might have a coupon on it, or even a freebie if a team wins or score a specific amount of points.  

4. Work discounts. Cell phone plans might be covered or discounted by your employer!  Be sure to check, because you could be saving a little extra every month. Make sure you ask about fitness centers (gyms) and other public resources – your employer might already have a group account with them that you can be included in!

5.  Receipt coupons. Many store receipts have coupons on the back — especially those that come from grocery store registers. Common discounts include restaurant deals, local dry cleaning deals, reduced ticket prices to local events and more.

6. Car insurance discounts. You might be aware that a good driving record can save you money….but while you’re speaking with your car insurance representative, ask about other discounts.  Student drivers that maintain a good GPA, veterans and the elderly often have discounts waiting for them.  You just have to ask about them. 

7. Cash coupons. Stores like Kohl’s and Old Navy offer some great savings. By spending a specific amount, you’ll receive “Kohl’s Cash” or “Old Navy Cash” that can be used on your next shopping trip.  Drugstores are also popular for giving savings on your next purchase, like CVS “Extra Care Bucks” and Walgreens “Register Rewards.”  These retailers count on you forgetting all about receiving these discounts – so take note of the days you can use them, and mark that on your calendars. 

8. Home insurance discounts. Check with your home insurance company.  There are specific things you can usually do to receive a discount.  Sometimes installing a certain smoke detector or deadbolt can save you extra money you didn’t realize.

9. Online coupons. Discounts online are easy, when you follow blogs like My Dallas Mommy!  But when you’re shopping online or even in-store, retailers will often offer great savings via their app or website.  It’s usually worth your time to save that extra money, just by searching around a little more!

10. Coupon mailers. You’ve seen these in your mailbox – and probably tossed them in the trash immediately. Take a minute to look through coupon mailer packs like Valpak and MoneyMailer.  Don’t pass up a BOGO FREE dinner at a new restaurant, or savings on dry cleaning, car window repair and home carpet cleaning!  You never know when you’ll need to use them!

Your Summer electricity bill doesn’t have to burn you! Temperatures are rising out there, as Summer hits us….but that doesn’t mean your electricity bill has to go up, too!  Here in Texas, energy efficiency is necessary, so we can run our A/C units, without paying ridiculous electricity bills.  With these simple tips, you’ll be able to save a nice chunk o’ change on your electric bill, with very little effort.  No need to budget more money for your Summer expenses – just follow these easy steps to keep cool without sacrificing your savings!

10 Simple Ways to Keep Your Summer Electricity Bill Low

Change Filters Regularly – The harder the air has to push to flow through, the more energy it’s using.  Change your filters in your air conditioner (and furnace!) monthly to avoid clogging it up.  You’ll be surprised how efficiently the A/C runs with fresh filters!  HomeDepot.com has some great prices on filters, as does Amazon.

 

Stockpile Freezer – If you’re a stockpiler and like getting items – lots of them – for cheap, you probably have a deep freezer in your home.  This saves tons of money by freezing the items you can purchase in bulk for cheap!  Here’s a tip-  put that extra freezer (or refrigerator) in the basement, if you have one.  It’s much cooler down there, and it won’t have to work so hard (use so much energy) to keep cold.  Check out some of the items you may not have known you can freeze – to save time and money, HERE!

Power Strip – If your small appliances have transformers on them (little black cube at the end of the cord), you may want to avoid plugging those into the wall sockets.  Even when you believe your appliances and devices are turned all the way off, the power may still be on if it’s plugged in.  This uses unnecessary energy and makes your bill rise, and it really does make a big difference.  Either be sure to unplug when not in use, or grab a power strip and plug all of them into it.  That way, when you are ready to turn them off, you can just turn the power strip off.  Just be sure these aren’t items that require extra work to re-program.

Replace Appliances – Have you owned any of your major appliances or air conditioners for more than 10 years?  If so, they are draining your wallet by using excess energy!  Purchase new appliances with Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) of 10, and you’ll potentially cut the cost of running them by almost 50%!  When you purchase new appliances, the out of pocket cost can be reduced by watching for sales, using rewards and checking the deals we post frequently.  In the long run, you’ll be saving money by replacing out -dated, older appliances.

Dial to Comfort – Keeping your thermostat at a constant temperature may seem like a great idea, because you assume your electric bill will be lower since you aren’t moving the dial.  But what you might not realize is raising and lowering the temperature can save you a ton of money!  If you aren’t home during the day, turn it up.  If you sleep better when it’s cooler in your home, turn it down.  Adjusting the temperature to fit your daily schedule will make sure you aren’t “wasting” that amazing cool air you want to feel when you need it most.

Keep it On-  You may believe that turning your A/C off when you leave the house, is saving you money.  That’s a common misconception – because when you turn it off, the energy it has to use to cool the entire house again is much more than you might think.  Simply turn it up when you leave the house, instead of “off.”  When you get home, you can turn it down again, and your unit won’t have to work as hard to cool the area all over again!  In fact, it’s a great idea to invest in a programmable thermostat.  This way, you don’t have to worry about fluctuating the temperature manually, and can rely on the program feature to do that for you!

Fans – Fans won’t “cool” the air around them, but they do circulate the air, creating a breeze that makes the room feel cooler.  When you have fans running, turn your thermostat up.  Not only are they already using energy by being plugged in, you won’t need the cooler air from the A/C anymore. Placing fans on opposite sides of a room can also help create a nice tunnel of cool air that will be expelled and distributed nicely.

Laundry & Dishes – Washing dishes by hand will reduce the use of your dishwasher, which isn’t anything shocking.  But, when you use your dishwasher, you’re putting out more heat into your house, causing your A/C unit to have to work harder to compensate.  Grabbing some paper plates and plastic utensils for the hotter months, will help you avoid having to wash too many dishes and save on that hot air being expelled from your machine.  You can also opt to purchase a rinsing agent (like Jet Dry) that will take the place of the heated dry mode.  Your dishes will be clean, and you’ll just need to dry them off as you take them out and put them away.  On the same note, wash your laundry in COLD water, if you can.  When you wash intimates, bedding and towels, be sure the load is full before using your hot water.  As for your dryer, be sure there’s room in there for the hot air to do its job.  Packing the dryer with as much as you can will likely take longer to get the items dry.

Sign up for Energy Ogre – This may just be the best tip you’ll receive from this list.  Why pay what your energy company requires, when you could be getting a better rate? Energy Ogre finds those better rates for you.  Plus, they are able to report that most of its customers have been able to save between 40% and 60% after enrolling in the program. All for about the cost of a monthly Netflix membership. If you live in a deregulated area, you’re in luck!  Go HERE to see what your potential savings can be, and use the code MYDFWMOMMY to get your 13th month FREE!  I (Jeni) signed up 2 months ago and have already saved nearly $200 – Energy Ogre cut my bill in HALF! Go HERE to read more about how Energy Ogre works.

Heavy Drapes – Instead of opening the curtains to allow for the sun to come through, consider closing them to keep the heat out.  Heavy drapes can also help in keeping the sunny side of your house or apartment cooler.  Don’t want to sacrifice the sunlight?  Grab some DIY window film!  This will allow you to see outside, and will let some light in – but keep the heat at bay.  In fact, it will help reduce the amount of heat that gets through your windows by about 30%!!  Check out some options HERE.  You may also want to put some potted trees in front of the windows to help shade your room from the sun.  This will also give the foliage what it needs – sunlight!  This also works on the outside – planting trees and large bushes in front of windows gives you privacy AND shade.

With these tips, you’ll help keep your home energy efficient, and your electricity bill lower than normal during the hotter months.  Even better – you won’t have to sacrifice comfort, and you’ll be saving money!

Making your budget stretch can be difficult. When you have a family, it’s even harder. But, by getting creative and using some savvy tips, we can keep our budgets in check AND feed our families great meals – with leftovers! Here are some great ideas to stretch your budget for the week.

Whether you are cooking for 1 or 2, or for a family of 7, any of these ideas will work for you. This will save you time, money AND hassle of figuring out what’s for dinner! By transforming your leftovers from one meal, you will have to cook less, plan less and spend less, because you’ll be making them into brand new meals!

Keep in mind that in some of these recipes, you’ll simply ignore the “cook” part of the meat, and just re-heat the leftover you have from the night or afternoon before.

CHICKEN:
Rotisserie Chicken – Chicken Pot Pie – Chicken Salad

Here’s a fun idea for kid-friendly meals that will also help you get rid of some leftovers!  If you missed our tips on using leftovers, head over here to check it out!  You’ll be able to get creative with this recipe idea, and even be able to make several mini meals in one muffin pan – all different to suit your family’s tastes!  Picky eaters in the family?  This allows you to customize each meal, and cater to those with specific requirements for theirs.  These are also great for on-the-go meals, quick lunches and road trip snacks.

Grab my favorite muffin pan HERE.

For a base, use this recipe:

* 1/2 cup Bisquick

* 1/2 cup milk 

* 2 eggs

Mix together and put about 1 tablespoon in each muffin cup, and if you choose to, add another tablespoon to the top of your mixtures (listed below)!  Use a spatula to spread the mixture around in each cup to coat the sides.  Alternatively, you can use plain pancake mix, and forgo the milk and egg.  Another idea is to use cornbread mix – just follow the package directions, and put them in each cup.

Create your base (recipe above), then add some marinara sauce, cheese, onions, pepperoni, olives and pineapple!  Kids can pick their toppings and make their very own mini pizza cups!

*CHICKEN ALFREDO:

Use leftover chicken and either shred or cut into chunks.  Pour about 2 tablespoons of alfredo sauce over it for a quick and easy chicken alfredo, in the perfect size portion!

*BEEF & BROCCOLI:

A beef & broccoli pot pie!?  Mmmmm….Top your cups up with some beef and broccoli florets, then drizzle soy sauce or teriyaki over it!  If you have sesame seeds, that would make for a fun and decorative topper!

*THANKSGIVING:

Take your Thanksgiving meal and make tiny muffin cup servings!  Pour in your base (recipe above), then add a few chunks of turkey, about a 1/2 tablespoon of stuffing and 1/2 tablespoon of mashed potatoes.  Drizzle with gravy when you pull it out of the oven!

*CHEESEBURGERS:

*CHICKEN ENCHILADAS:

Use:  shredded, leftover chicken and top with Rotel, cheese, olives, jalapenos and hot sauce!

*CHICKEN CORDON BLEU:

Add leftover chicken and ham pieces to your base mixture in the cups.  Place pieces or shreds of swiss cheese over them, sprinkle with garlic powder and pepper, then top with more base mixture OR with bread crumbs (crushed croutons work well)!

*VEGGIE CUPS:

Throw together some of your favorite vegetables, then sprinkle with pepper, lemon, marinades, balsamic vinegar or any other delicious topping you can think of for a fun veggie cup!

*CHILI:

Mix together leftover ground beef, Ranch Style Beans, onion dices and tomato sauce.  Add cheese or seasonings as desired to have some mini chili cups!  Top with the base to have chili pies!

*SAUSAGE POTATO LASAGNA:

*TACO CUPS:

Use leftover taco meat from last night’s meal.  Add to your base, then top with cheese, tomatoes, avocado and seasonings.  These would be nice to re-heat for lunch the next day, or freeze for another meal later in the week!  Once heated, you can top with cold lettuce and sour cream!

*ITALIAN MEATBALL MEALS:

If you had spaghetti and meatballs for dinner, consider using your leftovers to create fun little meatball cups!  Place a meatball in on the base, then pour on a flavorful combination of tomato sauce and italian spices.  Sprinkle with shredded swiss or parmesan cheese.

*POT ROAST CUPS:

Place small pieces of leftover pot roast, potatoes, onions & carrots into each cup with the base.  Pour in some beef broth, cover with more base and ta-da!  You have portable pot roast cups!!

*BREAKFAST CUPS:

Create your base, then crack an egg into the cup.  sprinkle in bits of bacon, cheese and any spices you like!  You could also mix the egg with milk and onion powder, and scramble, before pouring into the cup.  Brush on some maple syrup around the base before adding other ingredients to really kick this breakfast into high gear!
