Going out to the movies isn’t really that cheap anymore.  So when you go and see a crappy movie, it’s really disappointing.  What’s even worse is going to a disappointing movie that was highly rated by the movie critics.  They clearly have different opinions and ideas about movies than the average movie watcher.

My husband likes to buy natural peanut butter but I can’ get passed the oily separation.  For anyone who’s never bought natural PB, the oils separate and rise to the top of the peanut butter.  So when you open it to use it, there’s like a half inch of oil on top.  Yuck!  It’s such a turn off to me.

According to my husband, the answer is yes.   TV size that is!  Get your mind out of the gutter!  Why does the size of TVs matter so much to men?  I don’t get it. I’d be more than content with a 30″ average priced TV.  But my husband – bigger is better.  Much, much bigger.  And expensive as all get out. Oh, and did I mention that we have to have surround sound too?  [...]

I just happened to be looking over the Halloween goodies on Etsy when I came across these kooky cookies.  Halloween Delights has two designs to choose from.  Monster ogre toes and witches digit fingers.  Really!?  Oh yeah. The cookies look incredibly real!  They are made of shortbread with an almond as the place of the fingernail or toenail.  Ewww!  I could totally see sneaking these next to someones tea or coffee cup while waiting to [...]
