    Lightbulb Frugal Easter treat!

    Lets make a list of frugal treats that the Easter Bunny can bring.

    -egg shaped cookies, decorated
    -fruit loop necklaces
    -egg shaped rice crispy treats (Do you think these could be dyed pastel?)
    -marshmellow bunnies (directions are in the Tightwad Gazette, I don't think I can explain it without picture.)

    Next...

    How about those sugar eggs that Carol makes on hgtv, with a mold you could make your own choc. bunny. Or also with a mold you cold make choc bunny suckers.

    On a less sweeter note use the molds to make bunny, duckie soaps. Then I have seen them make ducks/bunnies out of wash rags by using folds and tucks in the right places, oh that would make a cute basket. Use old scrapes and make a cute country stuffed bunny.

    DUH running out of creativity now

    Talking marshmallow peep recipes

    *LOL*

    More frugal would be chocolate dipped marshmallows. Can dip into chocolate then dip into sprinkles.

    Just wanted to say the choc. covered potatoe chips are soooo good !!

    Do you think the Froot Loop necklaces could be made for a little boy ? Would that be wierd ? He hates rice crispy treats and stuff like that and I HATE to give him all chocolate.

    I really like the idea of making soaps and bunny washcloths!! Does anyone have the directions for making the washcloth bunnies ?
