Dear Young Couples on the Cheap: It's time for romance




You did your Mommy thing all day - squishing everything you could find, into a heart for the kids. Put them to bed, dim the lights, and now it's your time.

Don't feel bad that you elected to stay home on Valentine's Day due to finances. Think of it this way, you would have had to PAY for a babysitter for tonight and that would no doubt cost double If you could even find one, willing to work on Valentine's Day! It's a school night anyway. Go out this weekend instead if you can afford it.

I surfed the net, looking for cheap ideas and recipes for your evening of bliss with your valentines. 

When I think of romantic meals I wouldn't have ever thought that I'd find recipes on PBS! But they have some ideas for Romantic, BUDGET  (that's us!)  and Vegetarian meals.
