Going into Winter everyone should go over with family a fire route to safety. Many families don't ever prepare for fires in their home. Many have gone over hurricanes, floods, and other natural disasters, however MOST fires are preventable! Predict different routes from each possible way.

After $2+ a cup I realized it would be much cheaper to start making it at home every day. I didn't own a coffee … [Read more...]
New Dinner and My Kitchen!
So last night I decided to try something new for dinner! It was Apple Stuffing Pork Chops. Even though none of us really care for stuffing it turned out rather yummy.
