Hungry for Love cookbook

Last night I was tired and hungry for something warm, fast, and good. I ended up making French toast. I used wheat toast, and low fat milk, and topped it with cherry yogurt. It took less then 10 minutes to make, and cost about $5.00 to feed my hungry family of 7. Then I though I need a cookbook of fast easy, good tasting, cheap, and healthy dishes to feed my family with. Not fancy food...everyday food. I should run a cooking contest! So this is what I am going to do. I set up a new blog. It is called "Hungry for love cookbook". I will run a contest for the next 12 months. You send me your best family dishes. My family will test them. I'll post what I cook on the blog. Each month I will buy a prize. The 12 prizes will go to the best recipe (as judged by my family). The winner will take all 12 prizes. Then I will publish a book with the very best family recipes. I also want to highlight adoption in this book. I want to put photos and profiles of adopted families in the book. Oh, the profits from the book will feed orphans. So this contest is only open to families that have adopted, or plan to adopt. HERE is the blog. Please send me your recipes by commenting on the new blog and tell your friends. I'm sure I'm not the only one that needs some good ideas about what to cook.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi...

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom. This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading. I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth. Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help. But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen. Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program . That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees. She will be able to use it for an entire year. But I expect her to become a very good reader. And what a great gift to give to any child! She will have a lifetime love for books. Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda. And many of these women have never attended school. So she plans to use these ideas to h...
