10 Things NOT To Do While Stuck Inside Due to a Pandemic 1.        Don’t worry! Easier said than done but all this will pass and we will be able to get back to our regular lives. 2.        Don’t forget about your elderly neighbors. Just give them a call or knock on their door once in awhile to let them know they aren’t alone. But REMEMBER stay 6 feet away. 3.        DON’T GIVE UP! Not an option! We are all in this together. 4.        Don’t congregate with more than 10 people. Heed the warnings. 5.        Don’t shake hands with people. NO NO NO 6.        Don’t HOARD essentials items. We all are in need of these things. 7.        It’s not okay to say “I’m fine” when you are not, REACH out to talk with someone. 8.        Don’t forget to call your family members. 9.        Don’t forget to exercise. It’s good for you! Who remembers those outfits and big hair?? I DO!! 10.    Don’t forget to get a little sunshine. It helps with the

We are all in the same boat during this pandemic of COVID-19. Here are some things that you can do during your time held up in your home. 1.   Complete a puzzle. It's always satisfying to finish puzzles. 2.   Start a journal. This can be cathartic way of getting through difficult times. 3.   Dust off that old instrument and practice. 4.   Watch all the really long movies you’ve avoided until now.  5.  R ead a classic book. 6.   Treat yourself to a skin care routine you don’t have time for during a normal work week. 7.   Write an actual letter or note and send by snail mail. Who doesn’t like to get cards and notes in the mail? 8.   Learn something new. 9.   Try on all your clothes and determine whether they “spark joy” á la  Marie Kondo . 10.  B ake something. The next blog we will talk about things NOT to so during a pandemic. We would love to know what you are doing to keep busy during this time.

***updated March 4, 2023*** We hope & pray everyone is staying well especially during this time with the Coronavirus making its way through our country. Please use common sense and take care. Now onto something we love to talk about...RECIPES!! I'm an avid fan of Taste of Home recipes. As I was flipping through one of their many cookbooks, I came across this delicious-looking recipe with butterscotch, toffee, and cream cheese and who wouldn't love that combination? This is a multi-step recipe and it did take some time because of the steps but it's well worth it. They are extremely rich and would make a great dessert for church or a potluck supper. Butterscotch-Toffee Cheesecake Bars Ingredients 1 package yellow cake mix (regular size) 1 package (3.4 ounces) instant butterscotch pudding mix 1/3 cup canola oil 2 large eggs, divided use 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened 1/3 cup sugar 1 cup brickle toffee bits, divided 1/2 cup

Would you like to know how to put a lid on all those bags of sugar, candy, cereal, etc.? Cathy found out a way and wants to share it with YOU! What you will need: A plastic bottle with a screw top. A bag of whatever you want to keep fresh or just pour-able. Instructions:  Take the wrapper off the plastic bottle.  Cut the top of the bottle and cutting it short helps with the process. With the lid off, thread the bag through the top. Fold the bag over the top enough to cover the thread. Push the screw top down over the bag and then screw the top on. The bag will twist with it but you can turn the bag and it will be fine. Try it out and let us know how it works for you!!
