Today, my kids and I went into the gas station and I let them each pick out a piece of candy. Then I told them to pick out a piece of candy so we can give it to the cashier to have. They giggled because they got to pick out another piece of candy! After we checked out, my son told the cashier that this one is for you from us and in his own version told her about the random acts of kindness that I'm doing. She was amazed, smiled real big and thanked us. I love doing the random acts of kindness, Read More... [Continue Reading]
Apple Jelly Pokey
I have to tell you, this recipe didn't come out like I wanted it too. However, the recipe is an amazing one that I will make again, just not what I was aiming for. I wanted to make jelly filled donuts, but since it didn't turn out tasting like a donut, I had to find a fitting name for it. Once again my husband helped me name it, so I give you the Apple Jelly Pokey. This is a simple and delicious recipe that is sweet, but not too sweet. I suggest having it as a breakfast treat for some of your Read More... [Continue Reading]

#24 Random Act of Kindness
I went into the grocery store today with one goal in mind, that was to give a few of my free coupons away. I thought it would be a nice surprise to someone who could get a few items for free with them. So, I walked around the store for a bit and found this one lady with a kid and my gut told me to pick her. I went up to her and handed her the bag of coupons and told her about my random acts of kindness. She didn't know what to say at first but her kid immediately shouted "Happy Birthday" to me!
