Over the last week we picked up a little snow and
ice. Not as much as the local news
station forecast-ed. Two inches, at most,
was dumped over in our area and we’re okay with it, because it wasn’t as bad as
what was predicted. We found a bird,
dead in the snow, lying upside down on the roof.
Beans, our dog, wasn’t too happy because his belly was
dragging in the snow when he went out to do his business. We tried putting a sweater on Beans but he
wouldn’t have it.
Here’s a prime example of how a Chihuahua acts when
he/she doesn’t want to wear a sweater; or do what you want them to, they give you major attitude.

We love having a food saver machine to help with
preserving and packing foods. About 4
years ago, we purchased a residential machine over the internet, during the
holidays, at a really good price. The
machine is still working, but not as efficient as it used to be.
Before the last hunting season (around
Thanksgiving time) Cabela’s was having a sale on commercial-grade food saver
machines. We picked up one with some
extra rolls of plastic. This came in
handy when processing my husband’s 8 point buck.
I also picked up a powered pressure cooker at the
local Walmart for our RV; I always wanted one, and it was the perfect time to
snatch one up with holiday sales. Being
that our RV was in the shop for warranty work, I used the pressure cooker at
home to cook a roast and vegetables, everything came out really nice. This pressure cooker is large enough for
cooking on the road or at home. You can
even process your canning jars in this machine.
I haven’t tried this because I have a very large pressure canner at home
already.
Tomorrow evening, I will be posting a give-away I’m
sponsoring, and one person will be the lucky winner. Please
come back and visit me tomorrow evening and register for the give-away.
