Keep Those Cookbooks Clean

Ever notice how the cookbooks you love the most, are in the worst condition?  And as hard as you try, the cookbook shelf in the kitchen will never look neat due to so many out of shape cookbooks. 
Well, thanks to Shoshiet from www.imamother.com, I have decided to purchase the wood and acrylic cookbook stand from Amazon: Kitchen Cookbook Stand. I think this might be the solution to my chocolate covered, (if I'm lucky and they are not already stuck) pages of my favorite cookbooks.

Sweet Deals

I love saving money (now who doesn't, as long as it doesn't take too much out of you)  Before I left for Vegas, I found 2 pairs of dress boots I liked, in Winner's.  One was $149 and the other $99, I liked the more expensive ones better, but not $50 more, so I bought the cheaper ones.   In Arizona, last week, I found the more expensive ones for $59!  I may have only lost money at the slot machines, but coming across those shoes made me feel like I came out a winner.

Nine West boots for $59

This past Monday, I decided to take advantage of the after Christmas sales and spent the day in Carrefour Laval.  Wasn't the best shopping day ever, but I did get some deals.  Shopped for the boys for t-shirts in Children's Place ($6) and Old Navy ($1.99!) and some socks at $1 each.  My husband picked up a sweater, and some Clark's he had his eye on.  I found another pair of boots for myself.  Costed me $40, down from $165.

Suede boots, over the knee or fold over.
