The Mystery of the West Plains Dance Hall Explosion
Wow. That's a tale and then some. I'm not the greatest fan of fire myself, and one of my worst fears is a house fire, so I can see where Jo's coming from. It reminds me of the tales of events in the London Blitz, where such explosions weren't ...

Yeah, that would be sad. Hopefully he just liked going out then because it wasn't crowded

I'm leaning more and more towards it. I just don't get into the Christmas mood like I used to.

Family Finances: What are Things I Can Do to Save Money?
Fewer people, for sure. I used to like the store at that time of day, because I could do whatever I needed to get done without being interrupted constantly. I did wonder about our amputee laddie though, whether his early appearance was ...

That sounds so much more interesting than shopping during the day

How to make breakfast potatoes – The one cup breakfast
I am proud to say that I have eaten at fast food places only 3 times in 2013 and 7 times in 2012. If I am forced to eat fast food, I try to find a Taco Bell and order a bean burrito minus the cheese.

Travel Missouri: Laura Ingalls Wilder's Rocky Ridge Farm
After visiting here, I want to go see the other places she lived, too. She told some very fascinating stories.

Create Holiday Memories with a Gumdrop Christmas Tree
I have a 6-inch plastic tree with a bell on top which was my first tree, used as a desk decoration at work, before I even had my own place. One year I worked the festive season in a mental patient daycare unit. The poor tree got more stick than ...

"Wa la" is actually spelled "voila". One those stupid facts. I love crushed red peppers but I tend to overuse them in my recipes. I am trying to wean myself off of them. I am exploring the flavor of the food versus the flavor of the spice.

Family Finances: What are Things I Can Do to Save Money?
As a former night shift retail worker, we had parents with snoozing children in at 3am this time of year. They said it was the only time they could get the shopping done in peace without their youngster demanding everything that was on the ...

Travel Missouri: Laura Ingalls Wilder's Rocky Ridge Farm
Now, that is a tour my husband and I have often talked about undertaking, the Laura Ingalls Wilder Trail. We both read and re-read the series as kids. I seriously think this could be a 'big anniversary' trip or something similar, but we will be ...

Family Finances: What are Things I Can Do to Save Money?
I know. But I have an insatiable desire to do what I'm not supposed to. LOL I wouldn't mind going shopping in my PJ's at 2:00 in the morning, just to see who else was shopping

Family Finances: What are Things I Can Do to Save Money?
You wrote about how I live my life, more or less, Abby. Good to know I'm not alone. Thank you. Apart from the mortgage and monthly bills, my hope is that my husband and I will be debt-free by the end of 2014. Then, if we can't afford it, either ...
