First, when selecting a countertop water filter, you will want to make sure that the filter is simple to install.  The kit should be designed for the non-mechanically inclined, and include all the tools and instructions you’ll need to get it up and running in half an hour to an hour.  Second, look at the specs of the filter.  You’ll want to make sure the filter is high-grade and designed to eliminate biological matter as well as harmful chemicals and heavy metals.  Finally, look for special features that you and your family will enjoy.  Some countertop filters will pump out hot or cold water, add flavor to the water, or even heat water to the correct temperature to prepare soup or tea.

We had a lot of fun and I’m glad I found another bean recipe that my family enjoys. Ok, technically they are peas, not beans, but they are in the legume family, and are full of protein and fiber. That counts in my book and overall this is a very healthy meal. I have to confess; I didn’t have organic sour cream at home and didn’t feel like going to the store, so we just topped them with a little plain yogurt. I’m sure they’d be even better and more authentic with sour cream though.

Soup making can be quite easy and economical. Lets say on Sunday you’ve roasted a chicken, and by Monday night you are done to the carcass with a little meat. Toss it in your stainless 12 quart stockpot with some sliced onions, rice, a little prepared broth, and water. Let it simmer for a few hours and you’ll have a super cheap, delicious dinner. Of course your stockpot is also the perfect thing to make stock in! Homemade stock elevates the taste and quality of your soups and it’s as easy as tossing meat (a chicken, or some meat bones) into your pot with some celery, onions, carrots, herbs, and water. Simmer for hours, occasionally skimming the top. When it is over you’ll have the base for countless soups to come. With the right stockpot in your kitchen you’re sure to have a fantastic soup making season.

One thing I want to do with the money clip is to use it as a marker for money that I keep on hand but do not want to spend if possible.  It will allow me a visual cue for how much I actually have left while also helping in the fight against the temptation to spend furiously. This way I will know for sure when I have run out of money that I can actually afford to spend on unnecessary items.

I got the idea for the money clip when I was looking for some unique personalized gifts at EyeCandyGift.com.  If you are wondering what to get for the upcoming holiday season, consider an engraved gift item there.

Comcast internet service includes these features for the duration of your contract, at no additional charge.
