Tires, cars, everything. and 2) I know what a blowout can cause. Ladies, don't skim this post. Read it, educate yourself, and know your tires! I think … [Read more...]
For me, this is one of the best things about being a blogger, being able to give back to the community in some way so I was excited when Avery approached me about their 'Give Back to Schools' promotion.

I get so tired of recipes that get all dressed up with all sorts of ingredients. It's not that I don't have an appreciate for flavor, fine foods, and variety but I guess I just have more of an appreciation for simplicity; the foods that our Moms and Grandmas made.

A while back, I found out I was nominated for a Texas Social Media Award and after browsing the list of nominees, knew I had no chance. So you can only imagine my surprise to find out that I (little ol' me) actually won an award, me and 24 others. I was uber excited to say the least and honored of course! I'm sure the judges, Internet Editor … [Read more...]
There was a huge oil refinery explosion on Monday at Big Spring that shook the town and even some surrounding towns. My sister-in-law lives about 30 miles away and said they could feel the boom! According to Fox News, there were 4 injuries. One with serious burns and the others treated and released. From what I understand, the blast was … [Read more...]
