When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you ever wondered which
is the freshest, so you 'squeeze' for freshness or softness? Did you know
that bread is delivered fresh to the stores five days a week? Monday,
Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a different color
twist tie.
They are:
Monday = Blue
Tuesday = Green
Thursday = Red
Friday = White
Saturday = Yellow
So if today was Thursday, you would want red twist tie; not white which is
Fridays (almost a week old)! The colors go alphabetically by color
Blue-Green - Red - White - Yellow, Monday through Saturday. Very easy to
remember. I thought this was interesting. I looked in the grocery store and
the bread wrappers DO have different twist ties, and even the ones with the
plastic clips have different colors. You learn something new everyday! Enjoy
fresh bread when you buy bread with the rigt color on the day you are
shopping.

Don't forget "Gatorade" for Migraine Headaches & Hang-overs. PowerAide
won't work.

Manic Monday on Tuesday

You know when you think your day is going to go a certain way and then you get stuck on the computer and nothing has been done. Well that is me right now. I have been glued to this seat at the computer for the last 3 hours updating my sites and have the tv for background noise.
I know this may or may not be some of you out there, but it does get a lil annoying at times on my part. I am not trying to bash on myself or justify it. I am just getting my new online shoppe filled with many great products and I will do some house chores before I  take Lily to the doctor for her flu booster shot. I do keep my kids appts.
Well just a lil ranting on myself. Oh did I mention I am supposed to be packing as I will be moving come Feb? I know it's a ways away but I need to start now or nothing will get done. LOL
If you want to participate in Manic Mondays got to:
and sign up.
Time to finish up here on the computer then I got dishes to do.
Have a Great Day!
