We love pumpkin pie! I thing I love about both Thanksgiving an Christmas is all the flavors put into cooking. It makes the food so yummy. While on pinterest I came across a recipe for pumpkin cookies. With it being so simple and only needing two ingredients I picked them up at the store and gave it a shot last night. 1 box of spice cake mix 1 can of pumpkin Mix them together, preheat oven at 350 and bake. I baked mine for 12 minutes. These were super good. I went one step farther though, and I had to try the new cool whip cream cheese frosting. To die for, these are melt in your mouth yummy. If you have a sweet tooth and want something quick, easy and cheap these would be the cookies for you. … [Read more...]

10 Uses for Newspaper
November 5, 2012 By Leave a Comment
With the economy in shambles a large part of Americans are turning to couponing to save their families some money. It’s recommended that a family using coupons should purchase one Sunday paper for each member of their family. If you’re a family of 5 that’s a lot of extra newspaper that will probably find its way to the trash. Instead of throwing those newspapers away, I am going to give you 10 ways you can put them to great use. 1. Protect Your Workspace – My favorite use for old newspaper is protecting workspace when the children are doing arts and crafts. I find this to be one of the more common uses for old newspaper. By laying several layers down it protects the work surface if any accidents happen. 2. Kitty Litter – Shred the newspapers up, and use them for kitty litter. Using old newspapers for kitty litter is a great way to save money. You’re already purchasing newspapers so no need to also purchase kitty litter. 3. Pet Cage Lining – Line the birdcage with them.

Elections Is Drawing Near
November 2, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Only a few more days left until elections. I am not going to hold my breath, I know who ever is picked it will only mean 4 more years of hell. It seems all the Presidents we have had thus far have only been out for themselves. People trusted Obama and what does he do... Signs into law allowing spy drones, which is an invasion to our privacy. One may say if you are doing nothing bad you have nothing to worry about. I beg to differ, it doesn't matter what you are doing... You have no privacy with the spy drones, if you once laid naked in your backyard to sun bathe you will be seen... If you have a window in your bathroom of children's room, you better cover them. Some spy drones can get so close they can see inside your home... What else has Mr. Obama done? Well he also signed into law these medical chips... Well I will be dead before they implant anything into me... There is also rumor Mr. Obama has camps all over the US where people he feels didn't agree with him will be … [Read more...]

Often times us adults tend to make holiday cooking stressful. However, what we are forgetting is the holidays are about being with family and friends. Things don't have to be perfect, so when it comes time to start that baking let the kids join in on the fun. Family time spent in the kitchen baking will be memories that stick with your child when you're gone. It doesn't matter the age of the child small simple tasks will put a smile on their faces. My daughter likes cracking the eggs, getting the items needed, stirring, and licking the bowl. I read the recipe, show her how to measure out the ingredients, and make sure everything runs smoothly. One thing you want to keep in mind when cooking with the kids, is to have fun. You might end up with a flat cake, or a burnt cookie, but the kids had a ball with you making those treats. Plus, you are not only having fun with your child, you are also teaching them important things they will need in life as they get older. They will also … [Read more...]
