With Mother’s Day approaching it’s time for all of the special projects kids can do on their own or with the help of an adult. Every child wants to give mom something for Mother’s Day. Small projects, created by them, always mean so much and are treasured forever. Creativity For Kids from Faber-Castell is...
Does the price of gas have you all tied up? I know it is here and we would walk to places but we live in the country. We do however have a rather good on gas mini van that I’m thankful for. Sadly with the beach a mile or so away I’ll be taking...
I am a huge advocate for giving back. It can be money, time, items, or just a think tank, but giving back is very important. I was disappointed to see the Food Network’s “Barefoot Contessa” in a little bit of a snag. How can this be? I like her or did. Funny how one...
Last year this time Kmart Pharmacy filled my prescription wrong. I was sick. Very sick. By sick I mean I almost passed out at my son’s Pinewood Derby. I fell over and lost my balance twice at home. I wasn’t thinking correctly. I tried to hide my shaking hands from my mom and my...

Last night I heard on the news that the flu was out and about in all 50 states. I should have taken note. Hubby is in bed sick with it and I’m hoping that it doesn’t make it’s rounds in the house. I’m ready with my handy dandy Lysol kit to cover everything that...
