we have done the debt snowball of Dave Ramsey, now we have an extra dollar or two that I want to put to good use, would you work on putting a little more on the house, (knowing that you may want to move someday, and don't want to be upside down in the future if things continue to slump) or...

before we can move in a few years, it occurs to me that as I live in a rural area, maybe I could get friendly with some of the farms that are right near us, and start some of my projects now, I have already done goats and chickens at farms futher away but now I am thinking maybe I need to get...

I was thinking after I dumped them, that they may have been on their way to turning into some sort of alcohol, as the tingly fizzy sting on my tongue reminded me of apple cider that turned hard (before I knew how good hard cider was, I dumped that out tooo rolling my eyes at myself, I guess I...

I didn't notice until the next day, and then I put them into the refrigerator, and forgot about them for a few days, excited when I found them, I forgot that it isn't like the jelly that didn't seal (enough sugar to preserve the fruit), I tasted one wanting fresh peach flavor, but instead...
