At this time, I would like to mention another of my favorite safety warnings. This was the original suggestion by one Mr. Paul Slaybaugh. So, by request, I shall warn you of his deepest fear at Christmas. In my own feeble way, I am going to have to offer some council

christmas: Family Fun Night ~ Movie Marathon - 12/12/07 11:04 PM
While it is unlikely (and actually impossible) to watch all of these Christmas flicks in one night, I want to suggest that a Family Fun night can be served with hot buttered popcorn, or better yet, Julie Neering's Yummy Caramel Corn recipe. So, in the spirit of the season, I have

christmas: Twelve Days of Safety ~~ On the Third Day - 12/08/07 01:21 PM
Okay people...this one is a good one. I mean it does allow us to justify our pampering of ourselves. During the holidays there is so much stress running around. Stress does not have to be a bad thing. Stress occurs when we overextend ourselves; with our commitments, with our time, with

Oh the weather outside is frightful!! But the fire is so delightful... With the holiday season upon us, I thought it would be appropriate to send out a reminder on the important safety precautions we need to take for the holidays... Admittedly, most of this list is not news to you.
