Pepperidge Farms is the best

The wife just me in a nice piece of Lemon 3-Layer cake by Pepperidge Farms, they are our favorite cakes to get at the grocery store. The favorite flavor is the Cocconut 3-Layered one, it disapears quickly in our house. I always like mine ala mode with a nice glass of cold milk!

CDEarth.com

There is a company by the name of CDEarth that really has a good selection of software that I have had a good experience with in the past. Right now I find that they have an offer of choosing a FREE Software CD with a test-drive of CD Earth Software Library Club which is something that I have been contemplating on joining. With the whole family each using their own PC in their respective bedrooms, we go through a lot of software. The wife and I have both looked at their selection numerous times in the past and both have enjoyed previous purchases so we know the kind of service to expect, which has always been good, by the way.

It was funny today, I had the task of taking our youngest and her best friend to the library today to drop off and pick up more books. She has finally found a book series that she enjoys enough to actually read, she has never liked reading before, so the wife and I are thrilled that at last something has caught her attention. Anyway, it is a gorgeous library and I always am in awe when I go there, they renovated it just recently and have done a marvelous job and it makes it a pleasure to enter. As we were walking in I told the girls that in my day we didn’t have the Internet, so that we spent a lot of time in the local library growing up looking for books in an effort to find something to help with your homework and to study of course. I can’t imagine what live would have been like if we had had the Internet to assist with our education like they have now, I guess we will never know will we.

The Internet really has made everything right at the tips of your fingers, my kids use their PCs consistently for homework and of course playing games are a plus. This web-site which by the way is www.CDEarth.com and it really has a good selection of games and educational software that I’m sure we will be looking at closer.

Here is a copy of their latest Press Release, which is full of information.

If it ain’t WWE it ain’t s*&%!

I have been a wrestling fan for many a decades now and have many wrestlers come and go that have come up with some pretty wacky persona’s, but I gotta tell ya that the other wrestling associations like TNA are really scraping the bottom of the barrel these days.

I usually always watch the WWE events when I can, my youngest enjoys watching them with me and sometimes the wife will even sit down long enough and watch a match or two. But the nights that there isn’t much on the tube and I see that TNA is on I find myself watching for a few matches and start wondering why I keep watching, because the quality just isn’t there anymore. The WWE Association is a hard act to follow!

T-shirts for the pre teen trio

It seems that having your best girlfriends and yourself all wearing the same design custom t-shirts is cool when you are a pre teen these days. Our youngest has a great friendship with 2 other girls, they have all grown up together and are a tight trio.

They have been on the Internet and have found a web-site of http://www.bluecotton.com that offers you the opportunity to create your own design using their design studio right there, the girls showed it to me and I have to admit it really is cool the way that they have this set up, you gotta check it out. The girls had a blast creating their own unique logo using it and it didn’t take as long for them to come to an agreement as I thought it would take, they are all 3 so very different in ways and have their own “styles”. I’m curious how the finale product will come out, they have a nice selection to choose from and offer free shipping!

The wife and I have the house to ourselves tonight

It just occurred to me that the wife has managed to pry our youngest out of her bedroom and go spend the night at a girlfriends house and that the oldest one has left for the evening to go who knows where. Which means that the wife and I have the house all to ourselves tonight!

Details, may come later, or maybe not!
