This has got to be the easiest way I know of to clean deeply soiled, stained, cooked on gunk from your drip pans whether electric or gas. This also works great for oven racks.

Freezing Baked Beans

By Sandi/Poor But Proud

Individual portions of baked beans that have been frozen.I was made privy to a tip from a man who used to work for B&M Baked Beans. He told me you could freeze them. I bought a big #10 can and dived them up into zip bags. Sure enough, they heat up like you just took them out of the can.

Once a week all year long, write something good that happened. Put the slips of paper in a jar and read them on the next New Year. Then you can reflect on all the good things that happened that year.

Snow In The Sky On Christmas Day

By Ana

Clouds in the sky that resemble snow.We live in York, S C. where our climate is very mild and sometimes we get a dusting of snow. I am sharing this photo that was taken from our car on Christmas Day. The sky is a perfect fluff of snow, or possibly angel wings. We didn't get snow on the ground but how beautiful the sky was, giving an illusion of fluffy pillows that has made fun talk among my family and friends.
