It’s Wednesday evening, and at long last, we finally got to have the barbecue that was initially planned for Sunday. For a while there it seemed as if the universe itself was conspiring against us. First, on Sunday evening, the night we initially planned to have the barbecue, the electricity went out. It came back [...]

What do you do when you have a hankering for ramen but there isn’t any to be had in the house? Improvise.

Not a single cup of instant ramen, not even a packet to cook some over the stove. Instead I found a package of fidel noodles, a can of beef stock, then grabbed some ginger, [...]

I’m a big fan of Pepperidge Farm’s Goldfish crackers. Anyone who has met me personally knows of my addiction to these yummy cheese flavored crackers. Heck, even those who have never meet me have probably come to that conclusion as well. I mean I only run a fanlisting for Goldfish crackers after all.

After reading my little review on three different brands of peach flavored tea to go you may have gotten the impression that I like those tea to go packets from Crystal Light and Lipton, especially the peach flavored ones.

I stopped at the dollar store on my way to work yesterday, hoping to find some yummy snacks to keep stocked in my bag, when I spied something that I had not seen before. Well, at least I had never seen it unless I was actually at a fast food joint. I’m talking about a [...]

Today (or rather yesterday) was my birthday. I think from this point on I’m going to stop keeping track of the years that pass. Every time someone asked me just how old I was now I sort of winced before answering. I mean really, twenty-five makes me sound like I should be well into adulthood [...]

Ever since I started working at DialAmerica I’ve been keeping the cabinets fully stocked with a selection of tea mixes. I tried the Crystal Light tea mixes, which are these nifty little packets of tea mix that you can add to a bottle of water and have instant tea to go, and ever since then [...]

Tuesday was a real winner of nights. It had some highs, but it had it’s lows as well. For example, I wasn’t late to work like I was on Monday (twenty minutes late) but my sales sucked. I only had three for the entire night. I got cussed out, my intelligence insulted, had to listen [...]

I know that, for most people, Thanksgiving isn’t really about being thankful anymore. It’s about stuffing our faces, watching football, and getting ready for the biggest shopping day of the year (Black Friday). In our family however, we try to always reflect on what we have to be thankful for this year, although yeah, the [...]

Heh, guess what? All of this week, for every sale we got, our name went into the drawing. Now from this collective pool, the supervisors would pull a name out for prizes. Prizes included $5 and $10 time card bonuses and a free turkey dinner. Now my mom had already boughten a turkey, so I [...]
