Date night - - Broke Style

Carson, wonderful husband that he is, has made it a point to have date night once a week. Since we've had some coupons and been able to eat out a few times this week for super cheap, we decided to stay in for date night tonight. I cooked an easy dinner and then we played board games. We did most of this by candle light. If you're thinking we did this for the romance factor, think again. We got our first energy bill today and, seeing as how I've never had an energy bill to pay, I was a little shocked. So we are learning our way around the apartment in the dark and bundling up when it gets cold. I'd like to keep some money in my pockets!
