  • Recalls McCormick Fajitas Seasoning Mix Due To Unlabeled Wheat And Milk Ingredients

    Okay so McCormick is recalling their fajita seasoning because it doesn’t list allergens like milk and wheat, but where is the soy allergen listing? Food companies really need to address that fact that people are allergic to all forms of soy and not just one protein in it. Grant soy protein is the deadly form…

  • Microsoft Is Now On The List

    I have been using Outlook Express for years without too much of a problem until today. I recently moved all my files onto a newer computer at work (we won’t call it new as it has been sitting there not being used since it was purchased in 2007, but it is a lot newer than…

  • I Want It Wednesday: Lego Minifigs Series 1

    I absolutely need to have these! They should be available in June. The 16 different minifgs will be individually bagged in blind bags so you won’t know what you are getting (unless you are like me and can feel what the hair/hats feel like through the bags. In any case I am going to need…

  • Kerplunk

    Growing up we did not have the game Kerplunk. Our cousin, Carla, did. So it was a fun thing we got to play whenever we went over to our Aunt’s house as kids. I remember going up to her room and pulling out the game, putting it together and playing it (and probably losing  —…

  • Nights Not Getting Any Better

    Okay, so if witnessing the murder of a groundhog this morning wasn’t bad enough, tonight’s no better! Now I am faced with stinky, runny cat poop to clean up and a spider. I give up. Today is just crappy. Going to bed now. Night.

  • Horrible Way to Start the Day

    I had a rather disturbing thing happen on the way to work and quite frankly it was a horrible way to start my day. I was speeding along the turnpike as usual when up ahead I spotted a little groundhog trying his hardest to make it across the road. He got across the first lane…

  • I Want It Wednesday: Forbidden Planet Figure

    I know I am a day late…but better late than never (and it almost felt like I would never feel like writing on my blog again…but thanks to some meds, my friends, my cat and whoring myself out with sponsored posts I am back and I want stuff!) Check this sweet (and very expensive) Forbidden…

  • Hair Follicle Drug Testing

    Need to test your kids for drugs or maybe even potential employees? Don’t rely on those pee-in-a-cup tests which only give you a few days worth of information. Use a more accurate hair follicle drug test with a longer testing range. You can now see results from as far as 90 days ago. Parents with…

  • Attack of the Giant Spiders from Mars

    I was witness to an invasion last night. Okay, not so much of an invasion as one giant spider from Mars. Okay, it wasn’t from Mars. It was from the ceiling. Okay, it wasn’t giant either, but when it is only inches from your face hanging there with all eight of its evil little legs…

  • Organizing the Garage

    We are going to be building a new home (if everything works out that is) and all the new homes have finished garages. Which looks really nice but we lose all the extra storage we currently have in our rafters in our current garage. Besides we want to use the garage for both our cars,…
