Attention all Hockey moms, PTO groups, church groups, charitable running clubs!  Raise money for your charity. When I take a particular highway when I go adventuring, when driving from the exit to my house I pass a church that has a prominent sign in front of it that always has information about different events and fundraisers.  The sign piqued my attention a few weeks ago as it promoted something called Turkey Bingo. I admit that I never heard of such a thing, and went home to Google it.  In retrospect, I suppose it should have been totally obvious, it is charitable bingo with turkeys (and cash) as prizes.  It is definitely a fun idea.  I’m not cert...

I did my weekly grocery shopping at a store where I don’t usually shop this week because their sales were unbeatable when coupled with double coupons on Wednesdays.  My total came to $95.99 after a savings of $59.46.  I bought many of the pantry staples I know I’ll need for the holidays like chicken broth, butter and soda.  I also bought several Pillsbury Quick Bread mixes, brownie mixes, cake mixes, frostings and cookie pouches.  I know that these come in handy when impromptu entertaining during the holiday season.  A few weeks ago, I happened to get two coupon inserts in my Sunday paper.  If you are a couponer, you know the joys of this happy ac...

A concerned mom posed a great question on the Betty Crocker message board last week.  Her daughter is an avid baker who aspires to be a professional chef when she grows up.  The trouble is that the would-be chef enjoys making treats like cookies and brownies as hands-on learning, and perhaps enjoys too many sweets, according to mom. As a cookbook author and recipe developer, I can definitely relate.  Often it takes me a few tries to pe...

Not to worry—I’m not hitting you up for cash or gifts (though I’m happy to share my wish list if you’re so inclined). Instead I wanted to share this cool site with you. Not only is it an effortless way to donate food to those in need, but you can improve your vocabulary at the same time. Careful—it’s ad...
