I’ve done the hard work for you and given you a month’s worth of meal ideas so you can reduce some of the mental load of meal planning.

Birthday parties can be expensive. From renting a venue, decorations, food and favors, you can truly end up breaking the bank. Sometimes it’s just too much and you need to look at other ways to celebrate.
Recently I readers to share frugal ways to make birthdays special without hurting the budget. There are many great ideas below. If birthday parties are a must for you, check out our frugal birthday party ideas.
Frugal Ways to Make a Birthday Special
Quality Time
This one is important for kids with siblings or for anybody who is just living a busy life. Take your child out on a date for some good old quality time. Let them choose the place.
Decorate the House
Order a large personalized Happy Birthday banner or pennant to put up every year. Throw up some other decorations from the dollar store and greet them with noise makers or confetti at the breakfast table. You can even decorate the yard to make sure everyone who drives by knows it’s their birthday.
Decorate the Car
If you’ll be getting in the car to go anywhere on their birthday, use window markers, streamers, and balloons to let everyone know they are celebrating a birthday. If you have older kids who drive, you can leave a small gift or note inside telling them how special they are.
Eat Cake for Breakfast
Better yet, deliver it to them in bed! If you’re like most parents, you aren’t normally letting your kids eat cake for breakfast. Wake them up by singing Happy Birthday and letting them have their cake first thing.

One of my favorite splurge treats to grab is the pumpkin bread at Starbucks! This recipe will let you make your own at home! It’s moist with just the right amount of fall flavor.
Note: The pumpkin bread at Starbucks is topped with pepitas, but I chose to leave them off. To add them, just sprinkle them on top of the batter before you bake!
Copycat Starbucks Pumpkin Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 can pumpkin puree (about 7-8 oz or around 1 cup)
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Grease a loaf pan and line with parchment paper (allowing some overhang on the long sides).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the eggs, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract together on medium speed until well combined, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
- Add the pumpkin and vegetable oil and mix on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Add the flour mixture and stir on low until just combined.
- Pour into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool for about 20 minutes in the pan and then remove to cool completely.
