If you're anything like me, I'm always on the look-out for a bargain. Especially this time of the year when money seems to fly out the window, no matter what good intentions that I have. 

Do you know what I love even better than a good deal? FREE! Yep! I have found some...

As you all may know, I teach English online to children in China. Some of them celebrate Christmas, while others don't. Most of them are interested and curious about how we celebrate Christmas in America. I thought that it would be a great learning activity to make wor...

I don't know about you, but I always look forward to Christmas movies. I try to wait until Thanksgiving, at least, but sometimes I cave and start early. It's actually a tradition that my husband and I watch "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" with J...

It's now November and my thinking goes to Thanksgiving. I love the thought of remembering all of the blessings in our lives. We get too stuck in thinking that we don't ever get what we want. That's when I think of one of my favorite Bible stories, the one man that was...
