Menu Planning HELP!
I am all about trying new things when it comes to cooking. 
I get bored and wanna learn more and try new types of food. I also menu plan and used to find it hard to get enough material to quench my need for NEW RECIPES! Since we have become regular internet users that has all changed. I keep finding sites on line that make whipping up my monthly menu a breeze.
All Recipes is my current fav and most used site for recipes. It has a vast and varied collection put together by regular cooks with special finds. I have a profile so I can take advantage of all the special features like the recipe box, question feature and option to rate and review recipes. The review option makes it easier to avoid the dud recipes!
I have never doubted that ‘Mennonite Girls Can Cook’ but this beautifully maintained blog proves it. I just love eating this blog up and enjoy its big selection due to many contributors.
I also make it a habit of checking out the sites of my favorite food brands or products because they will often have really good recipes, since they want their product to shine!
Anyone else have a really great site I can check out? Let me know and leave the address in the comment box.

Baking Soda
For years I have had a real affection for baking soda. My cleaning supply closet has baking soda as a main item (along with lemon juice and vinegar). I have used it to put out small fires in my oven. It works wonders on the laundry as well. Just today I found a great link with all sorts of other things baking soda is good for.

DID YOU KNOW (I didn’t!)
Flowers will keep longer if you add a teaspoon to the water in the vase!
Doesn’t just take smell from the fridge! Try it on your shoes or suck it up your vacuum if it is getting smelly!
Apparently it can be a useful modeling clay when added water and cornstarch.
It repels rain so try it on your car windows!
It repels ants so put it where they are getting in!
Supposed to sweeten tomatoes if you put it on the soil around the tomato plants!
