Meatloaf tips
Tip 1: I wrap my meatloaf in bacon to keep it moist and flavorful.
Tip 2: I line the meatloaf pan with bread. It soaks up the grease. When the meatloaf is done you just throw the bread away (or in my case, give it to the chickens who will love it).
$3 off your next order – Safeway
Safeway has a catalina ($3 off your next order) printing when you buy one SBC for $6.99 and a box of cereal. Many of the cereals are on sale. June 29-Aug 2nd. I need coffee anyway so I am definitely going to stock up on this one. Coffee freezes well. Thanks Heather at Queen Bee for the tip.
Trout fishing trip
You may have noticed I haven’t updated any posts lately. We’ve been relaxing and fishing and had no internet access. I have a tip on de boning trout. Cook it really well and then the whole bone structure just lifts out. You may have a few pin bones but the whole back bone will lift out if it is cooked really well.

Otter Pops vs Fla Vor Ice
Here is a fun article from someone with too much time on their hands. But thanks to their research we now know which is the better deal. Fla Vor Ice Wins. They are made by the same company. The only difference is size. The next time you want something cold on a hot summer day, you may as well get the better bargain. Happy Solstice everyone.
Skittles Vodka
With summer parties coming up it might be time to think on some new cocktail ideas. I saw this and thought they were pretty. Here is a link to the recipe and article.
You basically soak the skittles, drain, then mix up a drink.
