Aaaww.. my little baby turned 6 yesterday and she lost her 1st tooth.. Miss L has been with us for almost 3 years and it just seems like yesterday she was 3.. what a sweetie, I love her..

*Important* No More Rack Account Information

November 17, 2011 by jlpenner Leave a Comment

I woke up to a not so pleasant small uproar about No More Rack which I would like to inform everyone of. Last night it appears their site had a major security breach and all personal information is no longer personal.

Vanilla Extract Recipe Vlog- Money Minute

November 2, 2011 by jlpenner 4 Comments

So I made some vanilla extract today (Aug 2010)- it won’t be ready for at least 8 weeks but I am pretty excited about it.  It priced out to around $1.66 for 4 oz which is a decent frugal price.
