Yeah!! For years I got Taste of Home magazine…but I finally figured out that getting the annual year book is a much better way to go, and easier to store! They did this last year, and they are doing it again …. Taste of Home is clearing out their warehouse and has discounted LOTS of different hardback cookbooks! Normally priced around $20 to $30
…they are only $5 each!!
You can also get $1 shipping on any order with promo code 1062 or if you pick 4 of these books, you can get FREE shipping … just use code: LST02 …and if you spend $40.00, use code L9F17 and not only will you get free shipping but also an additional 20% off your order … which will make each book just $4!
You will definately want to do this deal through ShopatHome for 10% (yes…10%!! cash back, plus a $5 bonus if you are a new member.) You could also do it through Ebates which pays 5% cash back. Select your cash back site, then use the store finder to go to Taste of Home … and you will see the $5 Book Sale right on their home page…I promise you …
you can’t go wrong with these books!!
Thanks Hip2Save for the headsup…I was so excited to see this one again!

>Have you heard of Relish?

…I first heard about Relish from my friend Cami who is a TOTAL “get it all done” mom (I am NOT… but I AM a work in progress ….wish me luck) Anyway ~ she is a member of this site which costs $7 per month. It helps her pick her meals, plan, shop, etc. All meals are supposed to take around 30 minutes to create. Meal planning is something that I totally struggle with … so this is something that I am looking into, so I thought I would share….
Your commitment can be as small as 3 months ($21)
…which is where I think I will start.
( I know … I’m a chicken….)
I am curious to see if couponing and the shopping will be a good combination.

My kids (and hubby, actually) got hooked on grapes last summer… because Grandpa has TONS of them along his back fence. Someone got the brilliant idea to freeze them. We call them Grapecycles. (I actually think I saw Martha Stewart freezing grapes to use as decor in punch bowls…) So we gave it a try…and it has become a favorite treat in our home…all year round!  The best part about this snack is that it is super easy (not to mention healthy!) You just start with grapes right off the vine. Picking them is the fun part…..
Here is my son eating/picking/ and eating more grapes:

I actually have a girlfriend who lives in another state who went and bought grapes just so her kids could enjoy them year round like we do, (they came for a visit and LOVED them) so if you don’t have access to a grape vine then you could just purchase them at the grocery store if you find them on sale. (If you don’t have access to grape vines, there have also been some GREAT sales on grapes lately…and/or check produce stands, farmers markets … I even saw BAGS of them at a garage sale last weekend… so check around…if people have vines, then they might have more grapes then they know what to do with!)

I wash them really well and then strain them to dry. I purchased (on clearance last year!) those plastic freezer containers that are right next to the canning supplies in the grocery store.

They stayed great all year. We JUST finished our last container from last summer and it was as good as the first.  Inexpensive, EASY and healthy…not to mention delicious…!! *very important note: we eat them frozen … before they thaw…they get gushy when thawed!!
