I received a coupon for a free box of  Honey Kix Cereal for kids (or for kids of any age).  I expected it to be the sugar-loaded, fiberless cereal that is typical of most kid’s cereals.   Honey Kix, however, is not like the typical cereal and actually has 3 grams of fiber per serving, 16 grams of whole grain, and only 6 grams of sugar instead of 10 or 12.  Plus, there are no artificial flavors or preservatives.

Our teenage son  likes it, and I must admit that I think it tastes good, too.  I even like a handful of  it for a snack without milk.  Like they say, it’s kid-tested, mother-approved!

Looking for auto insurance?  You can go online and get free insurance quotes so fast.   In today’s tight economy, people are looking to get the best deal they can whether it’s on groceries, gasoline, or any type of insurance they might need.  It pays to shop around and get free quotes on insurance so that you are not paying too much.

I know it’s not Friday, but I just received this today for last Friday.  So here goes:

#1. Sarafina’s suggestion. How far would you be willing to travel to satisfy a food craving?

Maybe 20 minutes.
#2. Have you ever eaten rabbit? What did you think?

No, and I don’t want to!!
#3. Have you ever made your own bread? How?

No, if I want fresh bread then I buy it from Central Market’s bakery.  But we really don’t eat a whole lot of bread except for Ezekiel Bread.
#4. Where do you usually spend Easter and what do you usually eat?

We go to church on Sunday morning and have a family tradition of going to eat Asian food at Pei Wei.  The place is not crowded at all on Easter.  (We are so busy on Easter weekend with LTC youth group activities which involves Friday afternoon and evening and the majority of Saturday from early in the morning until evening, so I don’t even try to cook Easter dinner.)

I wonder what it would be like to have a sleep number bed with adjustable heights and also massage.  Sure seems like a great way to get a good night’s sleep. I also like the idea of side by side adjustable beds where you can have the bed adjusted like you want it, and your spouse can do likewise.  And the Electric Adjustable Mattress with relaxation massage to soothe tired muscles sounds awesome,  like a wonderful way to get a great night’s sleep.

Easter is a joyful time of year, when many people remember how Jesus, God’s only son, died on the cross for our sins, was resurrected  from the dead and came back to life on the third day.  It is a happy time for Christians on Easter and every day because of the relationship they have with  Jesus.

Easter eggs have symbolized new life for hundreds of years.  They make me think of how we have new life when we become a Christian.  This is something I think about often and not just at Easter.

Easter is a time when a lot of families get together for Easter dinner, to hunt Easter eggs, and to enjoy being together.  In case you need to refer to any of these Easter posts, here they are for easy access:

Sometimes we’ll have banana splits for dessert or sometimes for a treat on a warm day.  The top picture shows our son’s banana split.  He likes it loaded with everything, even sprinkles.  The bottom picture shows my husband’s which has very little ice cream and mostly fruit.  I fix mine halfway in between the two with more ice cream but just a little whipped cream (lite).  A lot of times we’ll have both vanilla and chocolate ice cream, but this time we were out of the chocolate.  Adding chocolate syrup makes up for not having the chocolate ice cream.

Notice all the fresh fruit. That makes this dessert a lot healthier than having cake and ice cream! Use low-fat ice cream and skip the whipped cream to make a great tasting low-fat dessert.

When my husband, son, and s-i-l get to talking about computers and all the accessories that go with them, my daughter and I would rather talk about something else like babies, recipes, or shopping.  I have heard the guys talk about video cards, and I know those are important to a computer.  I just trust them to take care of the computers and make sure they have everything on them that is needed.

There are all sorts of reasons people get fences.  Some people have fences for privacy, to mark off a boundary, for decorative purposes, for security of their property, or to section off a pool, hot tub or maybe even a garden area.  And there are all sorts of fences.  Some may want a PVC fence, or maybe a wood, aluminum, steel, wrought iron, or even a bamboo fence.

Whatever the reason or type of fence, Fence Quotes gives free quotes for residential fences.

Do you have your idea of a dream house?   I guess mine would be to have a large dining area with an extra-long dining table so we could have lots of people sitting at the same table for dinner, a larger kitchen, and a separate office area.  This is just thinking off the top of my head.  I’m sure there is more I could think of.

Now where would be a good place to live?  Would you be interested in Wilmington NC real estate?  That would be coastal property.  Or would you be interested in living in the mountains?   Wherever one’s house is located, though, it’s family that makes a house a home.  That’s a true dream home!
