Why I Think K-Rock & Pepsi Blew It With The 5.5 Promotion

/ September 30, 2010 / giveaway, local / Permalink

My first statement I’m going to make in this blog is that I love K-Rock. I listen to them all the time and find myself laughing to myself all the time when Colin & Zack are on in the morning – they’re hilarious and VERY good at what they do. I don’t know how they [...]

/ September 27, 2010 / home, local, save money / Permalink

This is an idea I’ve thought about for quite some time but I’m really looking for more input and ideas from my readers and followers (and lurkers!) to chime in to express if this is something you think could fly or not. I call it “Community Bulk Purchase Program” – CBPP (a title like that [...]

Is This The Time of Year For Good Food Or What??

/ September 22, 2010 / everyday life, food / Permalink

Ok perhaps it’s due to the fact that September is full of great occasions such as celebrating Liz’s birthday and my own, but does anyone else find this time of year absolutely awesome for cooking and for eating food?

So if any of you follow my Facebook or Twitter account, you’d know that I bought an iPad last Friday. I was very skeptical about it, and I still am to a point. However, I wanted to see if it was going to be everything that I wanted it to be. Meaning, one hell of [...]
