Do I Need Coffee Yet?

Yeah so I have to apologize to everyone as I haven’t been able to post much in the last week or so. The reason is simple… I’m trying to get caught up on photography jobs! The good news is that I’m doing a great job and thanks to a couple procrastination tips (will create a post on this soon) I’ve been able to get a lot or work done that I’ve been putting off. Not on purpose, it’s just very [...]

Great Idea When Stocking (Or Cleaning) A Fridge

I haven’t been posting that many helpful hints or tips lately, so I’m going to post something right now to remedy that situation. After I posted about how I use a ‘cleaning calendar’ and will put in chores that most likely should be done more often than I actually do them – I came across an article which actually made a little bit of sense to me.

Stock You Fridge Something Like a Vending Machine

It sounds kooky, but when I [...]

Wish Me Luck – Going To Try Giving Up Coffee..

I post a lot about coffee.. I talk about how profitable it must be (seeing the huge amount of coffee shops around town), I blog about how expensive it is, how I save money by making my own, even talked about how we should stop drinking it and instead save some money and drink beer!

Anyhow today – July 14th, I’m going to try to give up my morning coffee. There are a few reasons that I’m thinking about doing this [...]

And The Best Dental Dog Treats Are….

So back in Mid-May I held a contest for a large amount of dog treats with the contest winner having to keep track and record the results and how they felt that the dog treats stacked up against one another. Fortunately for me and you readers, Gail won the draw and after a month or so, she had written me to let me know of her results and how she liked everything.

The following is what she reported. I would like [...]

Beer For Breakfast …

Wow where does the weekend go? The PEI TweetUp on Friday night, Wine Show Saturday night and Fathers Day on Sunday – I guess that’s where the weekend goes eh? For those of you whom don’t have a clue and are wondering what the hell the PEI TweetUp was.. well, to put it simply – it was a gathering of people from PEI whom use Twitter. And it was a fantastic idea and went off really well I thought.

Weekends = Yardwork.. Oh Well..

Wow! What a weekend for the plants around my house! We spent the greater part of all weekend purchasing items and working around the yard. I should start by saying that god love her, Liz mowed the lawn Saturday while I was golfing .. what a nice surprise that was! She mentioned that it was due to the amount of work that I did on Friday evening around the house that she felt that it would be a nice break [...]

Store Brand (Cheaper) vs Name Brand (Expensive) Comparisons!

Remember these bad boys?

Whilst wondering through the many webs of the internet, I happened across a financial blogger named ‘Len’. I was instantly intrigued by his blog. He has a great following and a number of really different, interesting articles – the one which I wanted to point out to you (or few I should say) are the ones in which he does a blind taste test of common grocery items.

What a great idea! Let’s find out if that [...]

Make Perfect Hamburger Patties Every Time..

It’s been awhile since I posted a tip which I feel I will use on a regular basis, but this one is pretty self explanatory, you just have to look at the picture..

That’s a regular old jar lid and some plastic wrap to pop it out!

I wonder how many patty-makers are going to show up at garage sales now?

I wonder how many viewers out there purchased a hamburger patty maker at some point? Well I’m sure glad I decided [...]

Bulk Buying – Best And Worst..

So today was a really fun day, got up (around noon.. thanks for the poker game last night boys! You’d think I had some natural sleep aids or something the way I slept this weekend!) – and decided that since it was really nice out, we’d head back into town today to bring the beagles to the puppy park for a bit and then go in town to do some running around we didn’t get done yesterday.

One of the stores [...]
