cardboard-display-8-09There are so many uses for cardboard displays As a previous elementary school teacher, I think a cardboard display would be a great way to display books or maybe to set up an interest center.

If you have a business and need a way to display DVDs or CDs or maybe you don’t have a business but still need a way to display CDs and DVDs, then you might be interested in checking out these cardboard displays.

Online master degrees are becoming more popular.  There are quality degrees available that can be done online without leaving home.  Some top ranked schools are hesitant to offer online degrees because they think that the quality of the degree is diminished.   However, Gonzaga University realizes that the opposite is true and offers several quality masters degrees online.  Experienced professionals in the work force who might not be able to get a masters degree otherwise are able to get a quality degree in a time frame that works with their busy schedule.

By the way, Gonzaga University is:

  • Ranked #3 in the west by US News and World Report
  • Ranked “one of the nation’s best universities” by The Princeton Review and by Forbes Magazine
  • Ranked a “best value in private universities” by Kiplingers Personal Finance.

Filed Under (Organic Products) by Charla

The USDA has three categories of organic products:

  1. “100% Organic” means that the product is made with 100% organic ingredients.
  2. “Organic” means that the product is made with at least 95% organic ingredients.  The remaining 5% cannot contain any GMO’s.
  3. “Made With Organic Ingredients” means that the product is made with a minimum of 70% organic ingredients.  The remaining 30% cannot contain any GMO’s.

If the product contains less than 70% organic ingredients, then they may list each organic ingredient in the Ingredients List on the side of the package.  However, the product may not have “Organic” on the front of their packaging.

wide-screen-computer-monitor-8-09

I like the wide-screen computer monitors that are out these days.  They are so much better than the huge, bulky monitors that most people had ten years ago.  These desktops take up less space and utilize space effeciently.  No longer do you have to have a big desk to accommodate a computer, but with today’s desktop you can have a nice, compact desk if not much space is available.

party-invitation-8-09

There’s still time for an end of summer party, and what better way to invite friends to your party than with cute party invitations that are creative and not your usual store bought invitations. I liked these casual invitations because of the colors, and the flip flops reveal the casual nature of the party.  I would imagine that most of the guests might even wear flip flops to the party.

blog-stoneyfield-yogurt-salad-etc-8-24-09-001

While visiting my mother-in-law this summer, she made a delicious salad dressing using four ingredients plus she had finely chopped onion in the salad which added to the flavor.  So really I guess it should be five ingredients since the onion plays an important part.  Mix the ingredients lightly and pour on the salad.  (My mother-in-law put each ingredient on top of the salad separately and then tossed the salad lightly.)

Here are the four ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 packets Splenda ( but I replaced it with Stevia)
  • Morton’s “Nature’s Seasons” Seasoning Blend to taste
