    I made my own bread today !

    well bbh, I got the recipe off of the bag of flower I bought so there is nothing very special about what made up the bread. Now that I finally made some homemade bread I am going to start playing around with some modifications to the recipe. When I make something unique I will let you know :D

    Starting seeds is going to be the death of me.

    I use jiffy pots and have had great success. You need to make sure they have enough light and heat. In addition, I make sure to over seed when I start plants indoors. I use 2 too 3 seeds per pot and they all usually come up. You have to realize that some will fail so plan to plant more...

    Someone got our Debit Card Number

    From what the bank told us the person may have hacked into a internet site we used or someone was stealing numbers a gas stations or something. The worst part is seeing how they started out spending 4 dollars, then 100 dollars, then 500 dollars, and the highest one was 1200 dollars. I don't...

    So how are you, really?

    My wife and I are both in the residential home building industry and we are feeling it. We have almost seen a 50-percent drop in our income over the past two years and we bought a house within the past years. I don't know how we make it each month but we live the simple life. I can't wait for...

    I finally picked up 6 yesterday and changed out the most used lites in the house. They take a while to warm up and the wife said they have a different color but I said don't worry.....you will get used to it. The most amazing part of these new light bulbs is they use about 10 watts of engery...
