Well, I did this a few of weeks ago (before Pepper the puppy got sick). Here is the custom lid I made for a large popcorn container I had sitting in the garage (the other one contains bird seed so I didn’t want to get them confused). All it took was time, sandpaper, spray paint and craft paint.

Pinterest projects
I have stated before that Pinterest can be addicting. So, I figured I would start posting pins (recipes, crafts, etc) at least one idea a week stating whether it worked out for me.
So, the first project is Baked Fried Chicken that is a ‘KFC type’ chicken that is REALLY good! The original post is from http://thewondertwins.blogspot.com (look under recipes)
Since I mostly cook gluten-free I had to make some minor changes (changed the wheat flour to gluten-free) and since I didn’t have any ‘Season All’ so I had to find a copycat recipe and make the spice mixture (minus the curry since I didn’t have any).
If you try it out let me know what you think.

Walgreens new reward card and other topics
Note: I just updated the page with the photos of Pepper. For some reason it doesn’t appear this posted to Facebook either.
Multiple topics:
1) Walgreens is starting a new Rewards Program and if you use my link when you sign up I will get extra entries to win bonus points. Sign up now online and you could also win bonus points.

2) Since I have been asked for updated photos of Pepper (Golden Retriever puppy), I am making a permanent page (under About) that I will add new photos to as she gets bigger. I will post the latest photos later today. I am happy to say she gained a little weight and is getting more energy every day.
3) Menu planning – I have been starting a list of the main dishes we like to eat. I thought we didn’t have many, but boy I am surprised how big the list is (we do get in ruts though – maybe this will help us not eat the same food so often). When I get my project done I will show what I am doing.

Printable coupons
I have always used coupons, but I figured it was time to get busy finding more ways to get coupons other than the local paper.
So, today I created a permanent page that contains the places I have found to print coupons from home.
Note: most of the sites post new coupons at the beginning of each month.
I will update the page as I find new sites.
