Christmas Cheer

24 Dec

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!

Our plans include a short visit with family Christmas morning and then an afternoon at home cooking a nice Christmas dinner and baking some cookies. I have been baking cookies every few days for the past couple of weeks and they never last more than one night! So my vision of having a big plates of assorted cookies on Christmas is just not going to happen. But I will have some kind of cookies on a plate tonight – and then I will have to stop baking for a couple of months while we all go on diets to lose these extra 10 pounds we have gained since Thanksgiving!

Campbell Soup Labels for Schools

16 Oct

My mother just emailed me asking me to turn in all of the Campbell Soup labels that I have been collecting since school let out last summer. My little sister is not doing very well in English and my mother just found out the her English teacher is offering extra credit to her students in trade for these money making soup labels. And since I will be making an appearance on Christmas day I might as well bring along the baggie that is overflowing with these soup cans that I use a lot of,

Schools are really hurting for money as well as most of the other important businesses these days, so I have no problem saving these labels and doing my part in helping in the many fundraising opportunities that they school have to offer. And if my little sister can get some extra credit for my effort, I’m all for it!

Domino’s Rules

08 Oct

When I want a pizza, the only place that I call is Domino’s Pizza, I love their thin crust (if they don’t over cook it) and loaded with pepperoni with extra cheese. I always seem to find coupons that help off set the delivery charge, and I have always tried to be a generous tipper, so most of their drivers know me by now.

I just wish that they offered Pepsi products, but alas they are faithful to the Coca-Cola company and I prefer Pepsi, oh well we can’t have everything brought right to our door step no can we.

PBJ

28 Sep

When I make a PBJ I have to have the best of ingredients. I use only Reese’s peanut butter and Smucker’s grape jelly. The bread has to be soft and fresh. I buy only Wonderbread and it is always soft – perfect for my PBJs.

Grapes

13 Sep

Have you ever been in a hurry shopping at the grocery store and just grabbed up produce? I did that today with poor results. I saw plastic bags of green grapes and decided that grapes would make a nice snack. So I didn’t stop to examine the bags of grapes or pay much attention to the display.

It wasn’t until I got home and washed the grapes that I realized they are not seedless. I didn’t even know that they still sold grapes with seeds in them. That is not what I wanted, but I guess it is my own fault for being in a hurry.
