Thought of the Day: Frugal Fix

If your dishwasher is anything like mine, you may find that it doesn't always get your dishes as clean as you'd like. This may not be your dishwashers fault. It could simply be that your washer arms are clogged with mineral deposits.

Sprinkle baking soda over the washer arms, making sure that the baking soda goes directly into the holes. Pour white vinegar over the arms and allow the mixture to bubble. When the bubbling stops, run the rinse cycle on your machine, and voila! Clean, clear washer arms mean cleaner dishes for you!

Thought of the Day: Trifle!

Looking for a beautiful and simple dessert this holiday season? A trifle may be just what you are looking for. Layered in a clear dish or bowl, these desserts are elegant and delicious!

Here are a few delicious trifles you may want to try this holiday season:

Black Forest Trifle

2 packages brownies (prepared)
1/2 cup Rum or as desired
2 cans Cherry pie filling (19 oz)

***CHOCOLATE CUSTARD***
2 packages Chocolate pudding & pie Filling, cookable
4 tablespoons Cocoa (unsweetened)2 cups Whipping cream
6 tablespoons Sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla
Maraschino cherries

Note: you can make your own brownies or use chocolate muffins or cupcakes.

Pudding: follow directions adding cocoa, cook until thick. Cool. Cut brownies into 1 inch cubes; line bottom of 2 quart bowl of trifle dish with brownie cubes; sprinkle with 2-4 tbsp. rum.
Spoon half of cherry pie filling over brownies; top with half of chocolate pudding. Repeat procedure with remaining brownies, rum, pie filling and pudding. Cover and chill.

Beat whipping cream until foamy; gradually add sugar and vanilla, beating until soft peaks form. Spread over custard; garnish with maraschino cherries.

Chocolate Trifle

1 (19.8 ounce) package brownie mix
1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup water
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (1.5 ounce) bar chocolate candy


Prepare brownie mix according to package directions and cool completely. Cut into 1 inch squares. In a large bowl, combine pudding mix, water and sweetened condensed milk. Mix until smooth, then fold in 8 ounces whipped topping until no streaks remain.

In a trifle bowl or glass serving dish, place half of the brownies, half of the pudding mixture and half of the 12 ounce container of whipped topping. Repeat layers. Shave chocolate onto top layer for garnish. Refrigerate 8 hours before serving.

Raspberry Trifle

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup white sugar
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup white sugar
1 (10.75 ounce) package prepared pound cake
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen raspberries, thawed
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting


In a medium bowl, beat cream with 1/4 cup sugar until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, cream together cream cheese, lemon juice, vanilla and 1/2 cup sugar. Fold 2 cups of whipped cream into cream cheese mixture. Reserve remaining whipped cream.

Slice pound cake into 18 - 1/2 inch slices. Drain raspberries, reserving juice. Line the bottom of a 3 quart glass bowl or trifle bowl with one-third of the cake slices. Drizzle with some raspberry juice. Spread one-fourth of the cream cheese mixture over cake. Sift one-fourth of the cocoa over that. Sprinkle with one-third of the raspberries. Repeat layers twice.

Top with remaining cream cheese mixture, whipped cream and sifted cocoa. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours before serving.

Mmmmm, mmmmmm! Bad for the waistline, sure, but great for the soul. ;)

Thought of the Day: Traveling

Are you traveling this holiday season? Let's face it, unless you have a 4 door sled, and 8 flying reindeer, holiday travel is tough! We'd like to share a few tips with you to help de-stress your holiday travel plans, ensuring happy holidays for all.
  • Pack Smartly Don't wait until the last minute to pack. Take mix and match outfits, and plan your needs long before you open that suitcase. Remember, the less you take, the easier that suitcase is to cart around.
  • Get Some Rest! Don't burn the candle at both ends, like so many of us do, leading up to the holidays. This is bound to leave you tired and crabby, making you a less than perfect travel companion. Be sure to get plenty of sleep leading up to your traveling days. Everyone will thank you. ;)
  • Book A Room While this may not be the most frugal way to travel, sometimes it is the sanest. Even if friends and/or family have offered to put you up, think long and hard before you accept. Sometimes it's nice to have a place that allows you to escape the hectic holiday atmosphere. A little peace and quiet can be worth its weight in gold.
  • What Am I Forgetting? Don't forget your prescription medications and your medical insurance cards- you never know when you might find yourself in a difficult situation. Take your emergency numbers with you, and let your neighbors know you will be out of town. Don't forget to charge your cell phone, and be sure you have a charger that will work in your vehicle, just in case.
  • Timing Is Everything Watch you departure and arrival times, to be sure that they do not correspond with rush hour either at home, or at your destination. The last thing anyone wants to be doing before the holidays is sitting in bumper to bumper traffic.
  • Stop Often If you are taking a long car trip, be sure to stop every couple of hours to stretch your legs and back.
  • I Can't Travel Anymore Can't travel? Host the holidays at your house and bring your family to you. Have the meal catered, or head out to a favorite restaurant. It's not what or where you eat, but the family traditions we create through the years that matter. If you can't manage the old traditions, start new ones!

This year, while you’re mulling over or writing down your resolutions to exercise more, stick to a budget, or find a new job-why not add a new resolution?-one that will be easy to keep.

Thought for The Day ~ Plan To Shed a Few Pounds for the New Year?

To quote an article from USA Today, “Americans in huge numbers — 15 million to 30 million, industry watchers say — are tossing medical caveats aside and shedding weight on low-carb, high-protein diets.”

The statistics are staggering but let’s face it, while low-carb appears to be the current path to follow diet-wise, the products hitting the market are less than pocketbook friendly. When a box of Twinkies® is half the price of a box of CarbWell® bars, how does a person living on a tuna budget afford a lobster low-carb lifestyle?

Holiday Cheer

Xerox is sponsoring a "Let's Say Thanks" program for our US troops currently serving in Iraq during the holidays.

Visit http://www.letssaythanks.com to pick out a design and message of your choice to be sent to a soldier.

Please take a moment to let our soldiers know we care about them.
