Freebie Fail #2.. Now THIS is the Worst Freebie Ever

May 14, 2012 by jlpenner 9 Comments

Maybe it is just me.. but WHAT where they thinking.. yes.. this is my freebie…   Yup.. an image of beef jerky spelling “most excellent”. It was my prize from the Oberto “GRAB & WIN!” game.

Wow.. my hubby got this the other day.. One more big debt to go but what an amazing feeling!! Debt has been an overwhelming burden in this household for over 5 years. This is not because we were terribly careless.. but I do look back and see the mistakes we made. We were never crazy spenders, but life took hold of us and we let it.

April 24, 2012 by jlpenner 2 Comments

Mmm.. you are so going to love these Almond Crusted Chicken Strips.  If you are not gluten free like me they are a great change of pace for chicken breading and if you are gluten free almond meal is  a great way to get away from the rice flour habit!!
