    Not Finished With Christmas Shopping????? We Got Ya Covered!!

    / No Comments

    If y’all are like me, you may not be completely done with your Christmas shopping. For some reason the season has gotten away from me. Well, I am the kind of person that instead of completely breaking down in a heap and crying “woe is me” (ok, I may have lost it for about 5 or 10 minutes) I pick myself up and figure out the solution. Now I am someone that has a lot to prepare for here at home and I really do not have time to run out to the crowded malls. So, I figured since I was going to be last minutes gifts and deals online…

    Senior & Not So Senior Discounts

    / 8 Comments

    Senior & Not So Senior Discounts ****Updated**** In this day and age when the price of EVERYTHING seems to be on the rise, it’s always nice to be able to get a little bit of a break. As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy’s recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors over age 55 …get 10% off everything on the menu, every day. (But you need to ASK for your senior discount.) This incident prompted me to do some…

    Simple Homemade Tortillas

    / No Comments

    Simple Homemade Tortillas These tortillas come together so quickly and easily that you will be wondering why you ever bought them from the store. We were just talking the other day about how Aileen’s family goes through Tortillas like crazy which made me think…. “Why are we buying these things? They can’t be THAT hard to make.” We are both all for being able to make something that doesn’t have all the chemicals “unpronounceable ingredients” in it. Here is a recipe for flour tortillas that I found originally at Jazibe’s Recipes. Easy…easy…easy! These are not very flexible when cool so try to warm them before using them. makes about 35…

    Did y’all know there were Official Halloween Rules? With Halloween right around the corner, we figured these “Official” Halloween Rules might come in handy. Halloween “Rules” When it appears that you have killed the monster, never check to see if it’s really dead. If you find that your house is built upon or near a cemetery, was once a church that was used for black masses, had previous inhabitants who went mad or committed suicide or died in some horrible fashion, or had inhabitants who performed satanic practices in your house – move away immediately.
