The Christmas season usually has everyone making and baking goodies. You don't mind eating them, but you have trouble making. You're not alone. I'm not great at baking, either. The good news about these Andes Mint pretzels as they take 3 ingredients and not much time at all to create.

I'll admit I'm not very good at arts and crafts. Not that I'm completely terrible, it's just that I don't get into them as much as I could or should. When my friend pointed me out to these Star Wars themed Snowflake templates, I knew it was something I could get behind.

You've seen people use those turkey fryers on YouTube and all the accidents that can occur. You think to yourself, "not me, I'm not going to be that guy," but how do you know for sure when you've never done it? If you plan on frying a turkey for the holidays, here are some helpful tips on how to not blow up your neighborhood.

At some arcades, you may see the game where the light bulbs spin around and around the machine. You push the button stop it and receive the number of tickets the number lands on. Seems simple enough. There are also designated 'jackpot' areas where if you can stop it on there, you win the jackpot. Here's what I do to guarantee a jackpot almost every time.

What many people consider as their favorite fruit, including me, apples are great is almost every way. They're inexpensive, they're versatile and they're common enough that you can find them just about anywhere. Most of us eat around the core but in doing so you're wasting about 30% of the apple.

Slicing soft cheese may also have a habit of getting stuck to your knife. I know people who freeze it, but I don't want frozen cheese, either. It dawned on me that I can use this to slice softer cheese with ease!

Okay, I'll admit, I liked the idea of Bitstrips for about a day and a half. Once everyone started jumping on board, I was pretty sick of seeing them in my newsfeed. If you want to remove all Bitstrips from your wall without blocking your friends and without them knowing you've blocked Bitstrips, here's what you need to do. It's super-simple.

Now is an interesting time of year where, now that it's cooling off outside, you may be using your stove and oven more for cooking. Along with working with boiling water and hot burners, scalds and burns in the kitchen are very dangerous for anyone - even life threatening...

I'll paint the picture. You've had a long day at work, you come home to the kids being all up in your grill, you try to make something decent for dinner and, right when your tush hits your kitchen chair, the phone rings. It never fails. On the other line, it's someone who already doesn't recognize the way you say, "hello," so they butcher your name in a vague attempt to pronounce your la

I'm just like you, I love shopping the clearance racks in any store I go to. Shopping for clearance items is always a game. You can get a great deal and value on something others probably spent full price on when they were first available so that makes you feel good about yourself. There's always that risk, however, when you buy something on clearance only to have it discounted further at a later

If you've ever been pulled over, you try to talk yourself out of getting a ticket. Here are some you can give that might work.
