The Big Bang Theory in Syndication : Season One Costume Party
“The Middle Earth Paradigm” from Season 1 of The Big Bang Theory aired Monday 9/26. In the episode, the gang attends a costume party in Penny’s apartment. Penny dresses as a cat, Sheldon dresses as the doppler effect, Leonard is Frodo from Lord of the Rings, Howard is Robin Hood but gets mistaken for Peter Pan and Raj is Thor, the Norse god of thunder. I loved Sheldon’s doppler effect costume, although I’m sure most people might mistake him as … [Read more...]
Weekly Weigh In Weeks 47 & 43 on Nutrisystem: Confessions #NSNation

Saving Energy, Time & Money With Whirlpool Duet Washer/Dryer #WhirlpoolMoms
Before my new Duet Washer & Dryer pair arrived, I felt overloaded with laundry. With a family of six, it seemed like the laundry was a never ending mountain of stinky, dirty clothes. I tried my best to stay on top of things… a load in the washer each morning, but it always seemed to win the battle. I thought I’d never see the bottom of the laundry hamper. I am happy to say that the clothes are no longer winning the battle. No… I didn’t get … [Read more...]

Teach Your Teens Safe Spending with American Express
Growing up, my parents never had the talk with me. Noooo, not that talk… the talk about safe spending, saving money in an emergency fund, budgeting and not going into debt. The only financial instruction I remember from high school was how to balance a checkbook in accounting. Looking back, it would have been incredibly helpful if someone had mentioned that buying stuff on credit knowing you don’t have the money (just because you want it and … [Read more...]
