Apparently I was the lucky one that got this book for free, as it now comes with a $9.99 price tag, and thus I can no longer tag it as a free book. However, this is a great reminder to you all that you should check Amazon regularly for free books and download the heck … Read More

You knew it was coming…
You just didn’t know it would take me this long to blog about it. As I mentioned in the Kindle 2 Price Cut post, I was now much closer to lounging with my Kindle in total bliss, and sure enough shortly after I took the plunge. I ordered it last Friday, and it arrived on … Read More
Kindle 2 price cut
I admit, when I discovered that TODAY Amazon lowered the price of the Kindle2 to $189, I squealed with delight. I have been saving up for one slowly over the past couple months, partly supplied through SwagBucks. In fact, I just got enough SwagBucks to get another $5 gift card. Anyway, since getting a Kindle … Read More
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
I have been pretty interested in obtaining a Kindle for the past few months, nay, since the Kindle 2 came out last year. Alas, I still do not own one but am currently borrowing one from a friend, and saving up my money in the interim (and doing a bunch of sweepstakes and contests). Finding … Read More

Ingredients 2 packages baby bella mushrooms 1 package Alouette garlic & herbs cheese (or cream cheese) 2tsp light mayo 1tsp heavy cream garlic powder, sea salt & parsley … Read More
Home Projects: Nightstands
Ok, so I can’t take all of the credit for this one. I saw this post, and immediately loved the side tables. I knew I had to make them mine! We bought two of these, and the second one is still sitting in the garage waiting for me to finish it. I will get to … Read More
Swagbucks
I am generally suspicious about “free” things, and the same was true for Swagbucks when I was first introduced to it. However, after using Swagbucks for the past 4 or 5 months I can attest that it is indeed legitimate, and fairly easy to do. Mind you, I am a very casual with my efforts, … Read More
Stuffed Peppers
I created this recipe on a whim yesterday… it was a cosmic accident. John had just made some lovely homemade tomato sauce, I had 3 different colored peppers in the refrigerator that needed to be used, and a pound of turkey in the freezer. Voila! These got rave reviews from my husband and mother in … Read More
Not Your Average Dinner Salad
I made this salad with my BBQ pizza recipe, and it complimented the meal quite well, picking up from the sweetness of the BBQ sauce. Ingredients Romaine lettuce Spring greens Baby spinach Sliced strawberries Golden raisins Pecans Cherry tomatoes Chopped red onions Mango Ginger Stilton (if you can’t find that, get sweet goat cheese) Ken’s … Read More
The best barbecue pizza
Sorry about the lack of a picture. I was so hungry that I didn’t even think about getting a picture until after it was demolished. Next time! Once upon a time there was a Nick-n-Willy’s pizza place near my old apartment that has since closed down. They had the best BBQ pizza that I had … Read More
