    Bag-less Walmart

    I was shocked recently to see the Walmart stores in the Austin, TX area no longer have bags at the registers! Shoppers can purchase cloth bags but if you do not purchase the bags you just have all your groceries and supplies in the cart! I had to empty the frozen food, veggies, fruit &...

    Strawberry Festival

    The Florida Strawberry Festival starts very soon. That means this is THE best time of year to get those wonderful, sweet Florida strawberries. It seems a little strange in the midst of snow/ice to be getting great strawberries but this is the time of year so don't miss out! When I was a...

    Cheese Crisp

    This is probably an idea you will have to make next time you are home since you may not have the bowls in your sleeper. Purchase a package of cubed cheese (we like sharp but any cheese will do). Using those little glass bowls (spray with PAM) place two cubes in the bowl. You can cook four...

    Dry Feet

    A few years ago I mentioned about a problem in the sleeper with really dry feet. I found that the inexpensive little slippers in the pharmacy of WalMart really help this problem. While I was purchasing some (in Christmas colors) today it reminded me that we have a lot of new ladies on EO that...

    TOE Jam is great, FROG Jam is even better!

    Cheri, you know, you just aren't right! You know that, right? Ha! So I guess you bought these as gifts but, gosh, you have to be sure they are really good!! It sounds like maybe they aren't so sweet and that is a good thing. Now we have to try these next time we head to Florida!

    Chef Dennis weekly meals

    Hey, ChefDennis, you haven't shared your amazing meals with us lately. It is time! We have winter coming and we need ideas! My husband and I are passing through Memphis so we plan to go by Corky's and get some bar-b-que to take with us (one of your great ideas- never pass up good barbque)...

    Share your space saving ideas

    I LOVE this thread! Those of you in trucks can't imagine moving down to the small amount of room in a van with two people!! We realized we were not ever using the sliding door of our van so we put magnet hooks over the door and hung shoe racks (over the door mesh type). The shoe racks have...

    Black Grapes

    Black grapes are back at Sam's Club! If you haven't tried these amazing grapes it will be a great time to try them now. Like cherries, they are only in the stores at certain times of the year. Someone from CA could probably tell us the times of the year you can get these. Last year we...

    Cherries are in season!

    We just purchased fresh cherries at a local Sams Club. Cherries have a rather short buying season so don't miss out on these! They are packed with anti-oxidants and vitamins. They are the perfect sweet, juicy snack when you are driving down the road.

    Black Barts / Flagstaff

    Linder, will the RV park let us park our straight truck in the park? We actually stayed at a Little America Truck Stop one time but the RV Park sure would be nice for a weekend.

    Need more input for peach crisp

    I tried the peach crisp recipe posted earlier and had no success. Thanks for trying Jenny but the recipe didn't work for me. I bought all the ingredients and made the crisp but the oatmeal got yucky soggy and I ended up throwing the whole thing out. We are near Atlanta so I got wonderful...

    Peach/Apple Crisp

    I think fresh peaches will be coming in soon to the stores and apples are now being picked in VA. So with that in mind, I would love to have a peach crisp or apple crisp recipe that I can fix in the microwave. It is easy to find these recipes for the oven at home but surely there is way to...

    Dry Skin Relief

    Glad you found something that works. It is especially hard when you are on the road all the time and you have a medical condition with no family doctor around. I used to work with a lady that had a condition called dermatitis and it sounds like what you have described. Some mornings she would...

    Shoulder injury

    Thanks for asking. My shoulder is so much better. I have learned to be very careful and I do physical therapy on it when it starts bothering me again. I don't think I'll ever have the range of motion I used to have but I'm thankful the awful pain is gone. By the way, a doctor mentioned to me...

    What do you for personal safety?

    I picked up a can of wasp spray at WalMart yesterday. Thanks so much for this tip. Although I have had security personnel ask if we have lighters, guns, cell phones, pets, I have never, ever had one ask if we have wasp spray!! Ha!

    Linder's Green Tea

    Linda Caffee (affectionately known as Linder) had such a great idea for Green Tea. My husband and I both like Green Tea but we drink a lot of coffee and having another cup of a hot drink wasn't too appealing. Linder suggested that we put a green tea bag in our bottle of water, let it sit for a...

    Luxury

    We loved the time to visit with you all! Since I do most of our cooking in the truck, I can't imagine doing it without a table. OK Leo, the table works for "other things" also. It is pretty heavy duty!! :-)

    What is for lunch and dinner this month....

    Chef Dennis, these are the most amazing menus. I think I would have a hard time deciding which one to eat first! I looked at that vacuum sealer at WalMart the other day. I agree, I think it would be perfect for the truck. Then when we make too much for one meal we could seal the leftovers...
