  • Folks at Hellmanns Not Too Bright

    Now I am not saying the folks at Hellmann’s are idiots, but then again maybe I am. As I said in my last mayo post that I have been searching for a VERY long time for a soy free mayonnaise and I thought I found it in the Hellmann’s brand Canola mayonnaise especially since their…

  • Halloween Nerds

    I mean the Nerds candy not the geeky guys knocking on the door. Wonka Nerds have four Halloween candies each in its own test tube topped with a scary monster. The Mummy Makeover is filled with white Nerds, which are fruit punch flavored, but taste a lot like Smarties (remember Smarties?). Then there’s Werewolf Morph…

  • Is There a Soy Free Mayo? No Way-O.

    I cannot tell you how hard it is to live a soy free life. Even when your life depends on it. Two years ago I discovered I was allergic to soy when my Dad gave me a glass of Silk Chocolate soy milk. I really liked the taste, but by the end of the glass…

  • Boy Did I Call That One

    As I said on the fourth I spent not only the day in bed but just about the entire weekend. If it weren’t for my friend pulling me out of thehouse on Saturday I would have spent the entire weekend in bed. Saturday we went to the Tiki Bar with my friend and her husband. We…

    Every day it seems that my allergies get worse. The other day I had a pretty bad allergic reaction to a co-workers perfume. I have always been overly sensitive to strong smells especially if my sinuses are infected or if my seasonal allergies are in full bloom (so to speak). But this was more than…

I was able to find a very knowledgeable and friendly online group [Cats and Kittens Yahoo Group] that confirmed for me that my suspicions were correct. Onions are indeed just…

  • Up All Night With Blue Bawls

    I recently read on ThinkGeek.com about the Bawls Guarna drinks and thought I would like to try it. But I did not want to pay the high cost of shipping something I never even tasted via the post office. Then I ran into the drink at my local convenience store and picked one up. High…

  • Pizza Zone Not in the Zone

    I don’t know what it is with me and restaurants, but I am always having problems with them. Maybe I am just too picky, but I don’t think that’s the case. Don’t get me wrong I am picky. Food has to be good and what I ordered. But above all I am a stickler for…
