A book well worth reading, time and time again. Which I have. First read it in grade 12 English class, deemed a bit risque way back them but I was lucky to have a progressive teacher. Then again in University English class, where we read it , tore it apart then read it again. Such a marvelous story. Hard to believe what transpired so long ago. But loved to see the views of then compared to now. I think this novel is a must read for all young female adults and it wouldn't hurt some of those male types out there to explore this novel as well.
I loved it then love it now, and will probably read it a few more times before this life is over.

Rice Krispies Cereal has always been my all time favorite cereal. Great for a bedtime snack, at least for me. This has always been my go to comfort food, but since I have been diagnosed with Diabetes, it is now a no no, way to high in carbs. Man oh man is that ever a bummer. I still allow myself to cheat once in awhile as I simply love this cereal. I have been having it as bedtime snack for over 30 years, and believe me it is hard to have to changemy way of eating. I miss being able to eat this cereal whenever and how ever I wanted to.
It is still one of the best cereals out there as far as flavor and versatility goes. Kids love it and my grandchildren still listen for the "snap". "crackle" and "pop" like I used to. The only talking cereal out there.

Lakota Roll-On Pain Reliever

I like this rub, it works in minutes. Only problem, if you have sensitive skin it is not wise to use it. Thank heavens my skin is not sensitive. I get a lot of lower back pain and this works very well for me, most sprains or arthritic pain is controlled by this rub. It goes on well and is absorbed almost immediately. I would definitely recommend this rub to any one suffering from joint pain. -

Pretty good,specially when I can pick it up at the RCSS Warehouse Club for .99 a loaf. I myself like the flavor and if it helps get more vegetables into me then great. In the regular grocery store it is too expensive for my budget but if they have it for .99 at the Warehouse Club I will pick up a few loaves and freeze them for later. -

Another notch in the Chapman family's belt. The are amazing; thirst quenching, flavorful and darn right economical. I watch for them to come on sale at No Frills and then buy a dozen or more boxes for the freezer.
I have only seen them in the three flavors, but that is OK with me, all three flavors are darn good. Love them and would recommend them to any one who will listen. Grandkids love them and I don't worry to much about stains on there clothes with these ones. The grape is white so you don't get lot of dark staining.

Billy Budd's is located at 9839 - 63 Ave, in South Edmonton, phone 780-438-1148
Want a great pizza? Then this is the place to go. Every Tuesday night is 50% off pizza night, and believe me they make one of the best.
We usually go on a Tuesday night, the super sizer pizza and a jug of beer is usually around $25.00, not bad for 3 - 4 people and we usually have left over pizza to take home.
Its not a ritzy type place, very basic, more of a sports bar than anything else but the food and service are excellent, not 5 star fancy dining but good pizza, lasagna, chicken fingers etc.
I would recommend this restaurant to any one who loves a good pizza and beer and just wants to relax. The clients are generally blue collar types, friendly and not snooty. Staff is great, aim to please but won't take any flack from the customers.

I love the coffee that this machine makes. Those little pods are amazing. I hate to admit that I do not have one of these units, but both of my children do. I will pick up a package of my favorite type of latte or chai tea and go for a visit.
My kids think that I go to visit them, but I really go so they will brew me a cup or two cup of my favorite. I am a real coffee addict so figure I cannot afford one of these for my house but definitely have to have my Tasssimo fix so go for a visit to the kids just to get my craving satisfied.
Love it, don't have enough counter space for my old stand by coffee machine and a Tassimo and since I drink probably 10 - 12 cups at least every day, So I visit my children, have a cup or two brewed in he Tassimo and see my children at the same time. Sort of killing two birds with one cup of coffee sort of thing.
I definitely recommend this machine and the product it brews. I have tasted the other brands and this is my favorite. I definitely would recommend it.

Bonton Bakery is located at 8720 149 st, Edonton, AB phone 780-4897717
This an amazing European style bakery on the Northwest end of Edmonton. A little higher priced than some bakeries but definitely well worth paying the extra for.
I cannot say enough about how tasty and nutritious the food is from this tiny bakery. They really do amaze me with the quality and variety of there products. A loaf of specialty bread may run close to $5.00 but well worth the price, just simply delicious. I have no favorite to talk about as I love everything they bake. perhaps that is why I am so well rounded.
I would definitely recommend this bakery to everyone. Once you go you will soon be as addicted to their products as I am.

Fibre 1 cereal is an OK cereal, what I like best about it is that you can turn it into fabulous granola bars. The taste is not bad, I usually add a bit of fruit to it when I eat it as a breakfast cereal, just to balance out my meal. I love the fact that it has so much fibre in it, that is something that so many of us do not get enough of. -

Do you have a green thumb, can't wait to go play in the dirt like I do? Then this is a must shop for you. Salibury Greenhouses are located at 52337 Range Road 232, Sherwood Park, phone 780-467-5743.
This place always amazes me. The variety and amount that these buildings contain. From seeds, to seedlings to garden products to home decor and ornaments big and small for your yard. 365 days of the year this is definitely a place to shop. They have a beautiful gift centre, with gifts for everyone and every walk of life, from gardening stuff to jewelry to kitchen aides. Love this place!
I purchase the majority of my spring bedding plants from Salisbury, the variety, quality and price is great. They offer a great discount card and always seem to have a sale on some type of plant or other item at all times.
They also have a Farmer's Market on Thursday nights, where you can purchase some of the best home made jam, jelly, bread, mixes etc. Again a must go to place. I go there quite often just to see what is new, and sometimes just to get advice from the staff.
A great place to shop any time of the year. They do up fresh floral arrangements, to your specifications. Unique gifts are the norm here. You really should check this place out.
