Frugal today and yesterday is starting to gather up my supplies to make hard tack candy. I bought the used Tupperware container yesterday a long rectangle one with the lid so I can pour my candy directly into the container instead of buying a cookie sheet. I also resisted buying in candy flavorings or any ingredients till I came home and gathered what I already had... so glad I waited as tonight I got in the cabinets and found several bottles of flavorings that I didn't use last year also found a brand new bottle of corn syrup unopened so now I need to look around and see how much sugar I have stashed. So it looks like all I'll need to buy is some butter and one or two bottles of flavoring I don't have like orange and cinnamon. I hope to make these up and sell at our craft shows in pretty little candy bags ( I do have to buy those too). I've also started saving my big coffee tins to store each flavor in. They'll be mixed bags but want to keep the flavors seperated till I mix the bags.
