Frozen Pizza

Posted on 3rd May 2012 in Food, Money/Finances, Opinion

I am a pizza fan. I could eat pepperoni pizza, seven days a week. It used to be that pizza was a cheap meal but those days seemed to be long gone. So it is nice to see the pizza wars that are going on with the several large pizza chains that are here in town.

As far a frozen pizza goes, you just don’t want to go there!

Vessel Sinks Online

Posted on 9th April 2012 in Friends/Family, Home Improvement, Internet, Opinion

It looks like my sister-in-law has changed her mind once again about how she wants her master bath made over. Part of the Easter dinner conversation was about the do over that is taking place over there, and the beautiful vessel sinks that she found online and now wants to use in their master bath. Most of the talking was done by her while my brother basically nodded his head and smiled on occasion when he felt it was warranted. I feel so bad for him to be stuck in this marriage with a loud mouthed woman who seems to be busy making his life miserable all because they got pregnant and decided to “do the right thing” and get married, for the baby’s sake.

Bizarre Foods

Posted on 5th March 2012 in Entertainment/Fun, Food, Opinion, Shopping

One of my favorite TV shows has been Bizarre Foods With Andrew Zimmern, that man has put some of the grossest things in his mouth. And very rarely do you see him crinkle up his face with the look of utter disgust that people do when they have just eaten something nasty tasting.  When this does happen his motto is to “try it twice” which I’ve seen him do on a rare occasion and usually he still doesn’t like it. You got to give him credit for trying so many ODD foods all across the world. I don’t think that I would enjoy sharing a meal with him though. I’m just saying………

Breakfast for Supper

Posted on 12th February 2012 in Food, Money/Finances, Opinion

Do you ever eat breakfast for supper?  I don’t very often, but I plan to eat it more often!  I like breakfast, and rarely have time to eat one.  And by that I mean the full-blown eggs and bacon and toast, not just a bowl of cereal.  Or pancakes with syrup, or french toast.  I really enjoy all of those.  And with the economy getting worse, it seems like a good way to trim the cost of dinner!  My wife and I have decided to eat breakfast for supper a couple of times every month.  Pinching pennies can taste good!

Politics as usual

Posted on 29th January 2012 in Food, Friends/Family, Life, Opinion, Politics, Shopping

My family always gets very invested in the presidential election. They watch every debate, following through all of the primaries, and we have very spirited discussions about the candidates and their views. Most of my family generally votes the opposite party that I vote, so I try to keep a low profile so as to avoid the temper tantrums that some people in the family have. Others in the family are not as mindful of keeping the peace, and often will wear their favorite political candidate’s advertising products on their body.

I can remember the last presidential election there was a big spirited discussion when my brother-in-law wore a ron paul shirt to the family Thanksgiving dinner. I’m not sure if the high emotions amuse me or scare me, but one thing is for certain, my family takes their politics very seriously and if you do not support their candidate of choice you can be deluged with muck raking information about your own candidate. I’m always glad when the elections are over!
