You might as well make a devotional out of it, right?

Because it’s the season of GIVEAWAYS!
But I’m not giving away a Dyson.  If I had a Dyson, I would put it beside my bed while I slept.  And keep one hand on it.  At all times.  I would not give it away.

*Sigh*
Preface: I love and adore my husband and his dreams and goals for our family.
However: Sometimes I get tired of the fact that he is still in school. He is very busy teaching, grading, planning, studying, writing, researching. Most weeks he’s at school six […]

I have been searching for a decent side dish to serve with my Mexican dinners for awhile now, and I think I’ve found it. And bonus - it’s dirt cheap. Hmm, maybe I shouldn’t use the word “dirt” to describe food.I have recently learned how to make my own tortilla chips for pennies […]

There are printable CVS coupons: $5/30, $4/20, $2/10, and $2/10 men’s skin care are the current favorites.
For most cashiers, you can use the post-tax total. So, if your total only comes to $9.99 before taxes, don’t worry about having to spend that extra penny (good luck finding something that’s only a penny! […]
