What This Weekend Means To Me Posted May 25, 2012 by Kim Brixton

Memorial Day is Monday.

Although many consider this weekend the unoffical start to summer and fun, remember those who made it possible for us to enjoy our freedom.

 

Eat Or Not To Eat Posted May 24, 2012 by Kim Brixton

We've been talking about foods that are on your do not eat list this morning.

 

Animal organs were a very unpopular food item.

 

While they are not a favored food choice, many organs are loaded with essential nutrients.

 

I admit the thought of consuming chicken livers didn't appeal to me at one time, I began to appreciate them deep fried, smothered  in hot sauce.  Also knowing they are a good source of iron, I decided to give them a try.

 

I do have to draw the line however with beef hearts.  

 

Just can't do it.

 

What do you think?

Remember Hopscotch?!? Posted May 22, 2012 by Kim Brixton

Today is national goof off day.

A good way to goof off is by playing hopscotch.

Willie is off on a mission to play hopscotch with you.

If your memory of hopscotch is a little 'sketchy', watch the video to re-learn the game of hopscotch.

The Z's Posted May 21, 2012 by Kim Brixton

Mark Zuckerberg is off the market...he tied the knot with long time gal pal Priscilla Chan. They met while attending Harvard.

It's been a banner week for the couple, as Chan, now Dr. Chan graduated from Medical School on Monday, the same day Zuckerberg turned 28. Four days later, Facebook went public; the move brought Zuckerberg's wealth to an astounding $19 billion.

Ladies and gentlemen meet The Z's!

 



Chalk It Up In The Creek Posted May 18, 2012 by Kim Brixton

I went on a chalking adventure this morning with Morgan.

Our mission was to bring attention to Spring Into The Arts, happening tonight in downtown Battle Creek.  We decided to bring art to the south side of town. Listeners got a chance to draw near Helmer & Columbia.

 

Morgan helped me with this one...

Young Zach shows promise as an artist.  I loved his pink giraffe!!

 

Maria had this work in progress

Maria is all done!

5 New Uses For VODKA Posted May 17, 2012 by Kim Brixton

 

If you have an excessive amount of this clear liquor around the house and you don't want to consume it, there apparently are other uses for it.

PERHAPS YOU WOULD CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

 

Goo Remover: Got a price tag, sticker or label that just won't peel off? Bring on the vodka. Simply saturate a sponge (or paper towel) with the strong stuff, apply to the sticker and wait about a minute. The paper (and tacky residue) will come right off.

Chrome "shiner": Restore the beauty of chrome fixtures in seconds with this easy trick. Just moisten a soft cloth with vodka, then rub down the fixture. Good as new. (This will also work on porcelain and glass!)

Room Deodorizer: Since air fresheners can often leave a room smelling worse, try this no-odor fix. Fill a spritzer bottle with a 1:1 ratio of water to vodka (this is a good time for the cheap stuff) and mist the air. Surprisingly, the room won't smell like a vodka martini.

Bouquet Preserver: Bacteria growth can make a pretty bouquet fade fast. To prevent this, add a few drops of vodka to every time you change the water. The flowers will stay lovelier longer.

Shower Cleaner: The moist, humid environment inside a bathroom can often lead to mold. To clean AND prevent it from happening again, spritz the shower, curtain liner and all, with vodka. Chemical-free and effective.

 

Is Your Pet Your Child? Posted May 16, 2012 by Kim Brixton

A man from New York has spent his life savings, close to $60,000 in a legal battle for a dog.  Knuckles is a half pug, half beagle that now lives in California with Sarah Brega, Craig Dershowitz's former girlfriend.
