The $50 Dinner Party : 26 Dinner Parties That Won't Break Your Bank, Your Back, or Your Schedule by Sally Sampson
Us girlfriends love to entertain, but it can get
expensive. Back when my husband and I were DINKS (you know, dual
income no kids) I would spare no expense when we entertained.
However, in these rough economic times, I needed to get creative..... This
book has wonderful ideas, recipes, and takes the major stress out of
entertaining on a budget.

Off The Shelf: Cooking From the Pantry by Donna Hay
Quite honestly, I would rather light my hair on
fire than bring my two small children to the grocery store. Couple
that with the sticker shock of carrying out 4 pathetic bags of groceries
for my $120, I decided long ago my shopping habits needed to change.
The idea behind this brilliant book is to hoard staples in your pantry that
can be used in a variety of dishes, and cut down on the amount of items you
need to cook. Every recipe is easy to follow and comes with a
picture, for those of us who are still measuring out teaspoons (me).
