and as I hear a sigh of relief coming out of my computer.. I have come to the end of my picks for "Good things for 2013" the best thing for the New Year is to just have fun at least for a few minutes every day.....and in the words of my father "Siggy".....
"Reeeeeeeeeeeeelax"
*****my neighbor read this post and asked if WD-40 can be used on appliances because she thought it was flammable. YES.....
it is according to the can. I use this on the front of the fridge, dishwasher, warming tray and the front (not near the burners) of my stove when NOT in use or if it's hot after use.
The use of this product was told to me by the delivery
and installation folks at
Guy T. Gunther Associates in Atlanta
sellers of commercial appliances years ago and I
have used it ever since never with a problem. Just make sure
you don't use it when the burners are on!!
and wipe off thoroughly.... |

Great post! I read every word, smiled, giggled, and totally enjoyed this! ~ Sarah
I love posts like this! Gives me some new ideas and things to try.
Another great post, Sue! I'm definitely going to use the broiler to preheat the oven. I'm already a fan of your jello with whipped cream dessert and I use my crockpot... the cheaper kind though... often. You are too funny!
Once again you have managed to make me Laugh out Loud while sitting at my desk at work! Love your posts!
Some good information and I like your reviews. I love my kitchen aid mixer, couldn't do without it. I don't use my crock pot as much as I probably should.
Ahh...so the little fur scamp has wormed her way into your hearts. I am surprised too.
Your posts always give me a chuckle and brighten my day. Must try the WD-40 trick. Oh, and the "other" flowers are alstroemeria lilies. I know because I carried them in my bridal bouquet.
Of course, I enjoyed this post! You do this type of post better than everyone. I already use my crockpot at least 3 times a week; and I've had my small kitchen aid mixer since the l970s - it still runs like a top. I can't afford the perfume (nor would I use it) or the fancy convenience foods; but I'm going to buy some little jellos and whipped cream just for me. That was my favorite dessert as a child. I do make jello for the troups; but those little jellos would be just for me!!! Thanks --- Sally
Great post, Sue! I love my crockpot (I have 1 big one, 1 medium one and one small one). That is an investment that you have but sounds like it might be well worth it.
I had that same thing happen with my bra years ago-worse though-as only one side rolled down...and it was a minimizer -you can imagine that!
I will sniff that perfume next time I can-I am ready for an update, I think- xo Diana
Sue you know I love your posts! This was so much fun and gave me some new products to try. I'll have to check out that bra since we discussed it at lunch the other day. Oh and Miss Coco Chanel is a charmer!
hugs, Linda
Girl you are telling our secrets of lunch - but that's okay. Lol
I knew about WD-40 and the bras. lol
Good idea about the sugar free cool whip and cottage cheese with jam. I bought cottage cheese and it is sitting in the icebox just looking a me - blah.
Now at what store can you find Rao's I am looking for just that same thing.

What a fun post - and full of useful stuff! Thanks!
Neighbor Kathy mentioned that WD-40 is flammable and yes it is.....See new addition to end of post as I state who told me to use this on stainless. Use with care and wipe off....I've used it for 20 years and have never had a problem....
Wow, there is a treasure trove of information here, Sue. Most of the brands I don't recognize but I always have a can of WD-40 in the cupboard. Never thought to polish my SS with it. Of course, I'm going to give it a try. Love the suggestion about the glass plates. That is a great idea. And hats off to you for losing 20 pounds. I'm so envious. I would rather hang by my thumbs than go on a diet. You do share some good suggestions which I appreciate. I do need to use my crockpot more.
Wow, you really covered a lot of territory in this post! I love your new way of eating (especially the whipped cream) and the fact that you have been able to manage to limit the amounts so consistently that you have lost 20 pounds - hooray! which I have been an abysmal failure at despite lecturing myself for five months now; however you have inspired me to pick myself up and start again! The boobs story has me falling off my chair in giggles. Nothing strapless, I don't care how good it is, would stay on me where it belongs - they'd all be down at my waist in no time. Thanks for the morning pick me up as I read your post today!
GHood tips amd warnings, Sue! i love WD 40 for many uses --just wished it smelled better. The perfume sounds amazing --I will look for it locally. I love the broiler tip--my new oven is electric and I can't get used to it or high altitude cooking for that matter.
You were a wealth of information today, Sue. I've used the broiler trick before- what a time savings boon! Loved your post today. so is this Rao's sauce a local product? It sounds like the real deal. Kudos on the weight loss. I have so self control. LOL
