Fun and Frivolous

Fun and Frivolous August 8, 2014

If someone gave you $50 with a note that said “Here’s a little gift for you. For you. Not for any bills or for the kids or for anyone else. For YOU. Please use it to treat yourself to something that you wouldn’t normally get/do… I know you are The Mom, but you are also Rebecca, and you need a little TLC from time to time. :-)” What would you spend it on?


I’m thinking booze and ice cream, but there have to be better options….so links please! If you had a fun fifty, what would you do with it?

(This is not some weird hypothetical. A generous friend really did give me $50 to spend on myself, and I really am stumped…so please help me play.)

**Update: Not to be outdone, another friend upped the ante. I now have $150 to spend on something fun. (I have nice friends!) Help me, internets! What would you splurge on?
