Freaky Frugalite

I’m participating in Renee’s Something Beautiful Meme. I am happy about the snowfall we’ve had over the weekend, our first “real” snowfall of the season. I love snow. It’s a good thing, too, because we usually have about 5-6 months of winter here in Upstate New York. It’s so, so beautiful. The kids like it [...]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Dual Electronics. All opinions are 100% mine. Ever ride in a Z-28 car? I did, waaaaaaay back in the late 80s when they were “hot.” Besides the speed and lounge-like front seats (I got the front seat, my brothers were squished into the bicycle [...]

Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands… Revelation 5: 11 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all [...]

Oh yeah baby. I have a confession to make. I LOVE disco! I was one of those really crazy girls in high school who loved Donna Summer and the Bee Gees. (Donna Summer became a Christian, too!). I hated the punk of the 80s and the grunge of the 90s. I love the disco of [...]

At the risk of giving my precocious children MORE ideas (they create sounds on my wine glasses when it’s their turn to wash the dishes), I am posting this amazing video of a guy playing Ode to Joy with wine glasses full of water! He is super good! It’s a shame the video was cut [...]

Ever wonder HOW those monks who took vows of silence held their chorals? Wonder no longer! Here are the Silent Monks, singing “Hallelujah”! LOL this make me literally bust laughing. They did a great job! Thanks to Alice for sending me this.

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Yamaha. All opinions are 100% mine. We play music *all* day here. The kids work at home, and I like to have (hopefully) quiet music in the background. I say “hopefully” because sometimes the kiddos want to bee-bop to Newsboys or Kutless or something [...]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Madacy Entertainment. All opinions are 100% mine. Did anyone go bananas and wait in line for hours, on Black Friday? I did it TWICE– one year I actually found some good sales without getting stampeded; the second time was useless. I decided that waiting [...]

Have you checked out the sale this week at Buy.com? They have got some very, very classy stuff on sale right now. I’ve been scouring their website, looking for deals on stuff for the kids and the Hubs (and for me, heehee!). I never noticed it before, but Buy.com has a whole section of musical [...]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Popstation. All opinions are 100% mine. Whoa, this has got to be one of the classiest contests I’ve ever mentioned here. It’s from PopStation, and it’s a BIG Deal. Yes, it is! I know quite a few budding musical artists (including a bunch of [...]
