Cottage Cheese-Yogurt Salad

Cottage Cheese-Yogurt SaladThis salad is based on two items that I don't particularly care for individually, but taste wonderful when combined. Here are two versions, that is especially good for the warm months. It is quick, healthy, inexpensive, and there can be so many combinations with the choices of ingredients and spices.

Successful Vacation Tips

Successful Vacation TipsDon't "advertise" your trip before or during on Facebook, Twitter or other social media. This includes posting photos while on your trip.

Ezra and Adelaide (Ducks)

Ezra and Adelaide (Ducks)Back in the springtime, around the end of April I was on our boat dock fishing. I looked under our picnic table and saw a single egg, just sitting there all alone on the dock. It was if the mother duck just hopped up on the dock, laid an egg and left!

Removing Spoiled Food Odor from Microwave?Food was left in the microwave for two weeks. How do I get the nasty smell out of my microwave? I was gone for 2 weeks and I have no idea who left a plate of food in the microwave. I cleaned it with a water and bleach mixed and Dawn dish soap. I have even let it stay open for a while, but it still stinks!

Other rooms on the breaker had power. I reset the breakers and the bedroom is still out. All outlets do not work and the ceiling light is not working.
