This is a good time to go back to some of the old ways. Plant a nice garden, and freeze some good, healthy food. Put patches on your jeans. There are some really cute iron ons in the stores, or make your own design! Get books and movies from the library, play board games with your kids, actually go outside with them, teach them how to play fox and geese in the snow. Make snow angels, walk with them and hunt for pretty rocks, toads, snails, salamanders, etc. Learn new healthy recipes for homemade soups that are nutritious and yummy! Plan a Valentine scavenger hunt! I do Easter ones for my grandkids, and they love it. There is so much we can do, and when you start your garden, you can share with older neighbors, or disabled ones. We don't have to buy our entertainment, or most of our meals. It is really fun!! Try it, you'll like it!
