Just a reminder that if you would like a particular recipe or subject covered you can request it any time. After all, this column is for YOU! This week instead of a recipe or two, I’m going to give you some random money saving, time saving, and just plain helpful hints/tips. They may jump all over...
We have had some very nice early spring weather the past two weeks. So, I was waiting for the Chipmunks to make an appearance. Everything was ready. The bird feeder was up, there were plenty of sunflower seeds and the birds were plentiful. However, not one Chipmunk showed up until last Tuesday and...

The sun is out and warming everything up, it is staying light later in the evenings and Spring is Here!  A nice crowd enjoyed some music with Tony to help celebrate the March birthdays, Trinity preschoolers were up to visit and everyone was treated to shamrock cookies, we shook 6-5-4 dice, St. Mary...
Sylvester Graham of Connecticut is said to have produced the first ‘graham’ crackers, named because they were made of the unsifted wheat flour that Sylvester Graham promoted. It is the subject of dispute. Some sources say Graham himself invented the snack in 1829; others claim the graham cracker...
