A Better Today and Tomorrow

By Mina

Stick people with a bubble containing curse words.Recently I asked someone if I was being a 'bitch'. The person I asked the question of drew my attention to the word I used. I was quite embarrassed; it made me stop and think. In my defense, such that it is and it's no good excuse I know, the word slipped out of my mouth without thinking and I didn't even consider that I was using a harsh or vulgar one.

Buy Products for the Packaging

By 15mhhm15

Two reusable glass bottles of sparkling lemonade.You are not supposed to judge products based on packaging alone, but I am easily amused and distracted when products have "nice packaging". I actually purchased a couple clear glass bottles with stoppers at Ikea a few months ago, but you can find the exact concept at Sprouts for their Sparkling Lemonade Lemon - 25.4 oz.

Spice Up Napkin Holders with Fall Craft Leaves

By tiffanytallent1981

Artificial fall leaves placed on napkin dispensers.I wanted to spice up our normally solid black napkin holders and used fabric craft leaves to do it.

Proper Storage for Open Canned Goods

Free Movie Popcorn
When we go to the movies, we always upgrade the popcorn to the one with the free refill. On those times we don't use the refill, I empty the bag and save it for next time or give it to my kids to save them money on their movie date. On the next visit, the concession stand marks the bag and refills it for you. A free bag of popcorn!
