Creamy Mashed Potatoes
- November 14th, 2008
I’m busy getting ready for Thanksgiving. I’m not hosting, but I offered to bring the mashed potatoes to my grandmother-in-law’s (is that even a term?) house. I found this great recipe that I got from my mom a few years ago. You can make them ahead of time and freeze them until you’re ready to [...]
Christmas… Are you Prepared?
- November 13th, 2008

I have been buying these Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Bleach Tablets for a little over a year now, and I have to tell you – these things really do keep your toilet looking, and smelling, cleaner! I was a little skeptical at first, so I bought a pack of two. I put them [...]
Your Day, Wasted Away
- October 24th, 2008
Many times, when I sit down in the evening and reflect on my day, I often wonder “Where did the day go?”. There seem to be big blocks of time that I am not able to account for. I know that with the fast pace of today’s society, we definitely have to make [...]
