Posted by on Dec 19, 2010 in Blog, Yakezie | 5 comments

A few weeks ago, I practically missed my carnival date and didn’t have a chance to catch up on all of the Yakezie member’s posts. So, today I’m making up for the ones I missed. For some lazy Sunday afternoon reading, here  is a copious supply of reading material: Financial Samurai with What the Tax Cut Extension Means to You.

My husband has recently gotten on this kick to work out  now that our apartment complex has a gym with a few great machines, such as a treadmill and elliptical trainer.

Yesterday, my husband and I decided to explore their produce and packaged dinners since I had heard they offer a lot of prepackaged, easy to make meals. Since I’m always rushing around, and I don’t cook (yes, you read that right; I don’t cook!), I figured I’d find something I’d like that would be easy to...

Yakezie Carnival Round-Up

Posted by on Nov 28, 2010 in Blog, Yakezie | 2 comments

Many months have past since I last hosted the last Yakezie Carnival. Though I had the date tentatively set in my mind, I sort of forgot it was my turn to host this month! Must be all that turkey tryptophan that’s clouding my mind. So without further adieu, here is a smattering of some of my Yakezie comrades (working my way up the ladder here, a follow-up carnival will be needed!): UPDATE: I realize I missed my one and only carnival submission via email!
