Saying I love you with a special meal buzzzzzzzzz

My husband worked today. He has an antique business so has two booths in a local antique mall here in town. Part of the deal is that you must work one day per every so many square feet of space that you rent. He usually works two days a month. Not bad and it keeps him in touch with his customers etc.

I knew he'd be hungry and tired when he got home tonight so I fixed him one of his favorite meals. After 48, almost 49 years of being together, one runs out of new ways to say "I love you". So, this was my way to say it to my beloved today. When I dished his meal up, he was happily surprised and exclaimed, "What a treat!!". I smiled and told him that it was a special "I love you" for him, just because. He smiled, kissed me, and devoured his special meal, exclaiming about how good it was all of the while. I enjoyed his pleasure more than anything.

Buzzworthy buzz comes in many forms, even with hamburger as a base. =)

Until next time,

Buzzing About A New Recipe Site

I made a big ham portion for dinner a few nights ago because our teen aged grandson was here. When he's here I think big because he eats a lot!! Well, he's gone home now and we're still sitting here with a ton of ham to eat. I can freeze some, but I wanted to get another meal out of it before I did that. I'll make bean soup out of the leftovers, but I have a lot of ham to use up before I'm ready to make soup.

I searched "recipes ham leftovers" and this is the site that came up. http://www.recipetips.com/
They suggested some that I already knew about, but also have some great suggestions that I would never have thought about. Ham loaf?? YUMMO!!! That is just the beginning. When they give the recipe for say 4 servings, you have the option of putting in the number of servings you need and it'll adjust the recipe. How great is that?? You can print it out on recipe cards too. That is a great option. I'm madly in love with this site. Do check it out. You will love it too. It is truly buzzworthy.

Jewelry, it's a girl thing.......

I am crazy about jewelry. I especially like unique pieces, so when I found this website for handcrafted jewelry I was really thrilled. I couldn't get over the variety of styles. There is something for every mood and occasion. Pieces to go with a more casual look, or for those times when you really want to dress up and have just the right necklace and earrings to complete the look you're going after.

I plan to send my husband a link to this site so he has it available when he's shopping for me. We girls have to think ahead, after all.

Until next time,

Buzzworthy Shoes!!

I have the worlds worse feet. I can't look at a catalog, find what I want and order it. Well, at least I couldn't in the past, but I sure can now!!! I have discovered a brand of shoes that I will find comfortable "right out of the box," as their slogan says. Merrell shoes. They look AND feel great.

In researching this company's product, I find that a lot of effort,research and technology has gone into developing a shoe that will give the support and protection that active people need in a shoe. Style and good looks aren't compromised either.

I am the worlds biggest advocate of online shopping, so when I find a product that lives up to it's advertising, I have to shout about it. Merrell shoes are truly Buzzworthy! You owe it to yourself to check them out.

Until next time,

Looking for the best price......

I always shop around before I buy. I feel that it's well worth the time it takes, and always yields a sizable savings. While pricing a PS3 for my grandson's birthday recently, I found just what he wanted and at a really good price. With the money I saved on the system, I was able to get him a couple of games as well and still stay within my budget.

With prices of most things going up and up these days, I'm always happy when I can find a bargain. Shopping online not only saves money on the item, but saves on gas as well. You can't beat that for a bargain!!

Until next time,

Buzzworthy Candlezzzzzzzzzz

My family is very important to me and because of that, my home is as well. Creating an atmosphere that is welcoming and warm is always my goal. I find that one of the quickest, easiest and most effective method of achieving this atmosphere is the use of candles.

I group my candles together in varying sizes and shapes when possible. If using scented candles I will group together candles of the same scent. Obviously, different scents would conflict and the desired effect lost.

I use candles in every room of my house with no exceptions. I like to end my day with a long bubble bath in my garden tub surrounded by the indirect light of candles all around the rim of the tub. Hmmmm........truly buzzworthy blisszzzzzzzzzzzz..

A Truly Buzzworthy Mop

My mother always insisted that a good housekeeper got down on her hands and knees and scrubbed her floors that way.

Well, I am here to tell you that for Spring cleaning, that's fine, but for weekly jobs, I use a mop!! I have recently discovered the microfiber mop. After trying mine, I ordered one for my mother, my sister, and my daughter. I've been telling them what a great product this is, so now they will get a chance to find out for themselves.

My mom promised she will give it a try. Always willing to try new things, I think she is going to love her new mop as much as I do mine.

Until next time,

Mary
