Little thinhat make you feel special

HI
I'm new to this so sorry if its been done before.

I am a big believer that being on a budget doesn't mean you cant enjoy yourself and feel special. so I want to start a post off little tips and tricks that cost pennies but give you that warm fuzzy feeling:D

*my 4 year old loves PRINCESS PUDDING. its basically a big dollop of value plain yoghurt with a bit of chopped up fruit (tinned peach, apple, raisins) and a couple of secret ingredients a drop of pink food colouring and a few sprinkles. who doesn't love sprinkles?

*I have a stressful job so some nights a nice big glass of wine is what I crave. Tonic and lime or bitter lemon nice and cold from the fridge is a good substitute and maybe its all in my head but served in my fav wine glass its just as relaxing as pinot (well almost).

* feeling glum? in need of a pick me up? fingers twitching towards your purse while window shopping online at Topshop/amazon/ebay? step away from the laptop turn the stereo on and turn it loud. jump around like a loon, close the curtains if you need too- although if someone glimpses you they are bound to catch that smile you are now sporting ;)
