Save Time With Reynolds Slow Cooker Liners

I hate washing dishes.  Even more, I hate washing pots and pans – including my slow cooker.  While that delicious stew or pot roast tastes delicious, I always get burnt-on food at the top edge.  When we moved, I gave in to a smaller kitchen because we liked the location, but we did not have […]

Goals For Making 2015 My Year

Goals… not resolutions for 2015.  Resolutions seem so final, so “now” and once broken, they are forgotten.  So long term goals for the year is my plan.  I am not setting finite goals that will seem impossible in January, just long term ones to help lead me through 2015. Goal: To Be Happier & Healthier […]
