NurtureMe Snack and Contest
Do you worry about what you give your kids to eat? Summer time often offers even more dilemas. With meal time sometimes being more sporatic snack time becomes important as well. There are so many products out on the market that kids would love to have the problem is they are not always good for them That is why I like nurture me. It allows both me and my little ones to be happy. Yum A Roos Organic Dried Fruit and Veggie Toddler Snacks offer big nutrition in a snack designed for little hands. Made from bite sized pieces of fruits and veggies that easily dissove in their mouth. The danger of choking as we all know is potentially there in any little one so anything that lessens the chance of choking is awesome to me. The Yum A Roos snack is great for little ones age 1 year of age and older. Nutrition is present because they offer veggies in additon to fruit preserves through a special process in order to lock in the delicious taste.

Farmers Market and a Recipe to Share
Just visited our local farmers market. We were so busy this year that we missed putting out a garden. I am so glad that there are so many awesome people in this area that still garden and sell their goods to those of us who simply did not do it for whatever reason. I got a dozen ears of sweet corn for $3 and a nice sweet onion and 2 bell peppers for $1.50 and yet from another stand a real nice pint of cherry tomatoes orange in color for $1. Nice buys and all will be great on my table to enjoy this week. Yummy!!!

Feature & Follow Friday Question
Feature & Follow Friday is a weekly event/hop hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. It’s a great way to find new blogs and make new friends!
This week’s Question:
What do you do with your books after you are done reading them?
Well to tell you the trugh I have yet to get my first kindle so I still return the books to the library. At times I buy my own books or review them and these books I will share with other friends that would like to read them. Other wise the best frugal way I know to check out the new books on the market is to visit your local library and return them so that others can enjoy them as well.

Trusted Health Products sent me a bottle of OraMD to try out for myself.
And I have to tell you that I've never been this blown away by a tooth care product.
After one use, my mouth felt fresh-from-the-dentist clean.

than some other "Dentist Recommended" toothpastes do with an electric toothbrush.

2 16 -ounce packages frozen whole kernel corn2 cups chopped red and/or green sweet pepper
1 cup chopped onion (1 large)
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1/4teaspoon black pepper
1 10 3/4-ounce can condensed cream of celery soup
1 8 -ounce tub cream cheese spread with chive and onion or cream cheese spread with garden vegetables
1/4cup milk
Lightly coat a 2-quart casserole with cooking spray; set aside. Place corn in a colander and thaw by running under cool water; drain. Set aside. In a large saucepan cook sweet pepper and onion in 1 tablespoon hot butter until tender. Stir in corn and black pepper. In a medium bowl whisk together soup, cream cheese spread, and milk.

Tasty Treat : Strawberry Pie
Growing up in the 70s we were a generation that enjoyed jello nearly every day. perhaps it was because our mother was busy and wanted to make quick treats or perhaps it was because our mother grew up falling in love with jello recipes herself. Whatever it was I can tell you that she came up with and treated us with many delicious recipes that had a root in jello YUMMY!!! This recipe is very quick to make and would make a delicious summer treat as well.

Memories From The Corn Field Days and A Bit of Delicious to Go With It
As a young girl we spent lots of time visiting our grandparents. Lucky for me that meant being out in the open fresh air away from the hustle and bustle of town. My grandparents each had lovely farms in central illinois. Rich with soil to grow the crops that would feed our families and make a nice profit for the family as well. One thing that we did and at that time I thought was loads of fun was to head out to the big corn field in front of the house to pick a feed sack of corn. Each ear of corn that we picked was worth a penny to us. How funny it seems that we spent all day long out in the hot corn field occupying ourselves to make only a few dollars. But there was so much more than picking corn to the story there was time spent with cousins cutting up and having fun. We really enjoyed our selves in even the days of picking corn were in the hot parts of July where the heat from the sun was hitting down on us hard. The memories made there was as good as the recipes that grandma would have made from the corn that we brought home. This delicious recipe I found from the website here would have possibly accompanied the delicious meal that grandma would have cooked us up.
6 ears corn, husked and cleaned
3 large tomatoes, diced
1 large onion, diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons white vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook corn in boiling water for 7

Good summer storm Blows Through
The sky was all a glow on the north side as the storm started blowing up. No it was not fire in the sky but did look rather odd. I love the beauty in this picture though that seems to show that the heavens are all a glow while life down on the surface of Earth awaits to see what is to come
The clouds seemed to swirl and allow the master of the storm to blow through. Rain did fall but it did not last long. A good old fashioned flash in the pan summer storm. If the rain is not going to be good and soaking I would rather have it blow over quickly as to not leave no real damage behind. While I did hear of tree limbs falling I am happy to say that here at our home there was no damage.

Awesome Storms === Dangerous Lightning
Our family has always be fascinated by storms. When the wind starts to blow and the sky grows an add shade of dark coloring our family does not run instead we become interested in what happens next. The truth is though that storms are potential poses of danger. Always be aware of the dangers that come along with the bad weather. This includes the dangers of lightning. I am sharing some tips with you about how to protect yourself from the dangers of lightning.
Personal Lightning Safety Tips
A. Crouch down. Put feet together. Place hands over ears to minimize hearing damage from thunder.3. IF INDOORS... Avoid water. Stay away from doors and windows. Do not use the telephone. Take off head sets. Turn off, unplug, and stay away from appliances, computers, power tools, & TV sets. Lightning may strike exterior electric and phone lines, inducing shocks to inside equipment.
B. Avoid proximity (minimum of 15 ft.) to other people.
4. SUSPEND ACTIVITIES for 30 minutes after the last observed lightning or thunder.
5. INJURED PERSONS do not carry an electrical charge and can be handled safely. Apply First Aid procedures to a lightning victim if you are qualified to do so. Call 911 or send for help immediately.
6. KNOW YOUR EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBERS.

The day these pictures were taken we enjoyed a great time at the park
We love picnics in the park and whenever I can share a feast with the bunch that is always grand. They love their fast food that is for sure but copycat recipes pleases their taste and allows me to prepare them fresh food that is often economical as well. Check out this copycat recipe for KFC coleslaw.

1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
8 cups finely chopped cabbage (approx. 1 head)
1/4 cup shredded carrot (1 medium carrot)

Oh My ButterScotch Cheese Cake Yummy!!!
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup cold 2% milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant butterscotch pudding mix
3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs, lightly beaten
Whipped cream and crushed butterscotch candies, optional
Place a greased 9-in. springform pan on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18 in. square). Securely wrap foil around pan. In a small bowl, combine cracker crumbs and sugar; stir in butter. Press onto the bottom of prepared pan. Place pan on a baking sheet. Bake at 325° for 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. In a small bowl, whisk the milks and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in pudding and vanilla. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour over crust. Place springform pan in a large baking pan; add 1 in. of hot water to larger pan. Bake at 325° for 65-75 minutes or until center is almost set and top appears dull. Remove springform pan from water bath. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight. Garnish with whipped cream and butterscotch candies if desired. Yield: 12
