I'm a retired special ed teacher. I enjoy having more time to read, garden and spoil my four dogs. I have 4 grandchildren who live out of state. I love all the clever ideas on thrifty fun.

Gardening is an adventure and hopefully mother nature will cooperate more next year. ... View related article.
Shame on Publix, that's wasteful and unfriendly for the environment. Not to mention their customers. Makes for higher prices, I'm sure. ... View related article.
