Shopping for Cheese Filled Piroulines?As a child, I enjoyed these little cheese rolls from a grocery store's bakery/deli counter (an IGA in Paris, Tennessee, USA), but have not seen them for about 24 years. They were small straw-like rolls, about 6 inches long and less than a half inch in diameter.
Gift Ideas for Operation Christmas Child?I need thrifty ideas for Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts for 10-14 year olds.

Ideas for "Old Timey" Themed Birthday Party?My daughter is turning 10 years old and is very interested in "old timey" things, such as quilts, candlesticks, old books, vintage buttons, embroidery, et cetera. She is most interested in the time period from the early pioneer days of the U.S. up until the early 1900s. I would like some additional decorating ideas.
Making a Backyard Tipi (Teepee)?We are homeschooling our daughter, who will be in second grade this year and studying American history. She will of course be learning about Native Americans. One of the projects we would like to do this year would be to construct a Plains style dwelling in the yard, a tipi (or teepee).
Recipe for Kernel Seasons Caramel Flavor Popcorn Seasoning?Does anyone have a copycat recipe for Kernel Seasons caramel flavor popcorn seasoning?
