Dinner

Last night for dinner my husband and I made his grandmothers famous “Taco Soup” along with grilled cheese sandwiches. With the weather so cold outside, it is the perfect warm comfort food. The soup is a combination of tomatoes, tomato sauce, ground beef, corn, taco seasoning, onion, Cheese, sour cream and tortilla chips.  The best part about the soup is not only that it is a fairly cheap dish to make, but also that we will have left over’s for days. We try to be very frugal in our household, so this soup is perfect for us to take leftovers for lunch at work. After dinner we had apple slices and caramel for dessert. It was the perfect sweet treat.

  • The Recession

    Economics was one of the most interesting courses I took in college. Although this is probably one of the biggest economic downfalls since the Great Depression, I feel as though we will come back from it. I must say the war impacts my opinion on the recession as I do believe it is one of the main causes. I don’t think people really realize the politics involved with economy as a whole. I think if people researched this topic in depth, the presidential election may have had a different outcome. With unemployment rates at a all time high and real-estate at an all time low, it is understandable that people are nervous about what the future holds. I just feel very blessed that I have a good paying job that supports me and my family.

  • My day

    My day is going very well. I woke up this morning next to the man I love and our wonderful dog. Any day I can begin this way is a blessing. I was also a bit more chipper than usual because I am off of work today. The weather outside was rainy and gloomy, so I opened my window and turned my fan on. What a great way to relax in bed all day! I then played on the computer for a little bit and proceeded to do some household chores. After that I made some lunch and played with my dog. My husband will be getting home from work soon and we will go to our favorite little bistro downtown as we always do on Wednesday’s.

It gives same amount love and affection that you get from any of the family member. Thus it is vital that we treat a dog very well and are equally concerned about its needs. Dogs very often accompany us when we go out be it for shopping, outing or even meeting our dear ones. Whenever dog is accompanying us in car, we have to make sure dog is fastening with seat belt. As regards, dog situation is slightly different. Our seat belt is across the body; whereas a dog seat belt is on its neck. Hence, one need to ensure that the belt is of good quality. The quality of leather is not allergic to skin, it is neither too tight nor too loose, so that it does not get suffocated or falls apart in the car in case of sudden braking or an accident of the car. Further, whenever, the new belt is put on we have to watch its movement for a couple of days. There after check around its neck that belt is not causing any inconvenience.
