The other day I bought myself a new pair of pants. This may not seem announcement-worthy, but it’s so rare I buy myself anything new it’s headline inducing. I wonder why I’m always the last one in the family to spend money on myself -and why do I always feel guilty when I buy something […]
Hamburger Helper isn’t really our thing, but heck, we’ll try anything if it’s free. The Hamburger Helper website is offering free samples of the Hamburger Helper Microwave Singles. I ordered mine and received a sample within two weeks. I thought my son could have it for his lunch, but unfortunately he’s the one five […]
Every now and then I think about joining Cosco. With three of us in the house, I don’t really have to buy in bulk, but with the two cats and a dog and occasional birthday party, I think a membership would be kind of handy.
I’ve gone to Cosco with my sister in law and […]
So my son just brought home the school fundraiser catalog. Here’s the thing, I couldn’t stand it when I worked in an office and everyone would it me up to buy from their kids’ fundraisers, so my husband and I don’t bug our friends and neighbors. Sometimes we’ll ask family members, but they have […]
As I mentioned yesterday, we got our first real snow storm here in a couple of years. Because it’s been so long, snow is a real novelty right now and we’re getting in as much outside time as we can. Mind you, today it’s half gone and kind of crusty, but there’s still fun to […]
It’s getting to be spring cleaning and fix up time. As soon as the snow thaws folks begin to clean out gutters and get rid of winter yard debris. Many folks find themselves with leaky gutters after a snow filled winter. Fortunately, fixing it is easy an there’s no need to call in a professional.

Even though I live in an area where snow in the winter is an expected staple, my town in Central New Jersey hasn’t had a decent snowfall in over two years. We’ve had the odd dusting or icing, but not a really good snowfall. As all parents know, snow is the most fun a […]
I am so over winter. Mind you, it hasn’t been terrible. While we used to have one or two good snowstorms a season, we’ve had nary a flake in two years. We’ve had some cold days and nights though. Even inside.
My husband is one of those thermostat minders. He checks constantly to make sure […]
Thanks to my sister Diana for turning me on to this sample.
I enjoy Dunkin’ Donuts coffee on occasion. For fast food coffee, it’s really high grade. If you never tried it before, here’s your chance. The Dunkin’ Donuts website is giving away a free sample. Check it out before the offer is gone!

So I sent my husband out for puppy stuff yesterday and he got food and a collar but forgot bowls and stuff to chew on. Bowls were no problem, we have plenty of Chinese take out containers that will do. Toys were another problem. Carter the puppy was really digging my son’s toys.
I planned […]
