Little Bear Creek Tree Farm

Yesterday my family and I went to Little Bear Creek Tree Farm to pick up a tree. It was the best place we had ever been to get a tree for a lot of reasons!

First, It has the greatest trees! We found a great one so soon, we kept looking because you can not find a tree with in the first five minutes! Also, this is one of the very few places where you can get a 16 foot tree! They cut it down for you and get it to your car!! Plus, they have a couple different types of trees! Trees such as Silver Tip and Blue Fir. As you can see they have great trees!

Second of all, it is kid friendly! Instead of having to hike a lot, they give you a ride to the half way point. Then they give you a ride back after you have found your tree! Also, at the half way point they have hot cocoa and cider! Then at the bottom they sell cookies, fudge, and ornaments! Across the creek there is a see saw made of a tree! Everyone is free to play on it! If you get cold, they have a fire by the place where you wait for a car to pick you up! It snows here too! Now you know where to go if you are looking for a family tree farm.

Lastly, their parking system is great! If you are going in a group of more than one car, you do not have to worry about getting split up because they will park you next to each other! They have lots of staff to show you the way to your spot too! Parking is no longer a worry at Little Bear Creek Tree Farm.

There are a ton of great reasons to go there, but one bad. It is very difficult to find the entry. Though, I have solved that problem ; I will tell you what the entrance looks like! There are no signs that say there is a tree farm. The entrance is right next to some sort of Power Plant or something. You might see some cars with trees coming out; that is a definite sign it is the tree farm! Now you know how to get in!

As you can see, Little Bear Creek Tree Farm is a great place to go! For more information visit the website http://www.littlebearcreektreefarm.com/index.html

Make a New Name!!

The following is excerpted from a children's book, Captain Underpants And the Perilous Plot Professor Poopypants, by Dave Pilkey, in which the evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names...

j = doofus
k = funky
l = boobie
m = sleezy

p = stinky
q = slimy
r = dorfus
s = snooty
t = tootsie

2. Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your new last name:

g = lizard
h = waffle
i = farkle
j = monkey

it helps to sit down and think about the problem.

Goodbye, Mom

This is funny...

Hope this touches you
the way it touched me . .

GOODBYE MOM


A young man shopping in a supermarket noticed a little old
lady following him around. If he stopped, she stopped. Furthermore she kept staring at him.

She finally overtook him at
the checkout, and she
turned to him and said,

"I hope I haven't made you
feel ill at ease;

it's just that you look so
much like my late son."

He answered, "That's okay."

"I know it's silly, but if you'd
call out "Good bye, Mom" as
I leave the store, it would
make me feel so happy."

She then went through the
checkout, and as she was on

her way out of the store, the
man called out, "Goodbye, Mom."

The little old lady waved,
and smiled back at him.

Pleased that he had brought
a little sunshine into someone's
day, he went to pay for his groceries.

"That comes to $121.85,"
said the clerk.

"How come so much ...
I only bought 5 items.."

The clerk replied, "Yeah,
but your Mother said
you'd be paying for
her things, too."

"Don't trust little Old Ladies"!!!

AWESOME Optical Ilusions!

Read out loud the text inside the triangle below.

More than likely you said, "A bird in the bush," and........

if this IS what YOU said, then you failed to see that the word THE is repeated twice!

Sorry, look again.

Next, let's play with some words.

What do you see?

In black you can read the word GOOD, in white the word EVIL (inside each black letter is a white letter). It's all very physiological too, because it visualize the concept that good can't exist without evil (or th e absence of good is evil ).

Now, what do you see?

You may not see it at first, but

the white spaces read the word optical, the blue landscape reads the word illusion. Look again! Can you see why this painting is called an optical illusion?

What do you see here?

This one is quite tricky!

The word TEACH reflects as LEARN.

Last one.

What do you see?

You probably read the word ME in brown, but.......

when you look through ME

you will see YOU!

Do you need to look again?

Test Your Brain This is really cool. The second one is amazing so please read all the way though.

ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST Count every " F" in the following text: FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS... (SEE BELOW) HOW MANY ? WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke. READ IT AGAIN ! Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 F's before you scroll down. The reasoning behind is further down. The brain cannot process "OF". Incredible or what? Go back and look again!! Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius. Three is normal, four is quite rare. Send this to your friends. It will drive them crazy.! And keep them occupied For several minutes..!

Easy Biscuits

Today for dinner I had Cream of Chicken Soup and biscuits I had made. The biscuits were delicious and I just had to share the recipe!

1/2 cup shortening ( i used butter)
2 cups all-purpose flower (i had to add more because it was too liquidy)
1 tablespoon sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cup milk

1. Heat oven to 450
2. Mix butter or shortening with flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt well. Add milk.
3. Drop dough onto buttered cookie sheet and bake for 10 to 12 min. or until golden brown. Immediately remove them from the cookie sheet. Serve nice and warm. Enjoy!

Special Notes:

• These grow out so give room!
• Add more flour if too liquidy. (If its shape does not hold on the cookie sheet. I can spread a bit)
• Makes twelve.

Recipe from Betty Crocker's New Cookbook under Baking Powder Biscuits

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

It is that time of year again, Halloween!! Does your family like to carve pumpkins? Mine does too. It is tradition that we roast the seeds from the pumpkin. Just take out the seeds in your pumpkin and set them aside when you are done carving. Then, you just follow this easy recipe!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup pumpkin seeds

• 1 tablespoon melted butter or vegetable oil (I prefer oil because it gives it a crunchier taste!)
  

• about 1/2 teaspoon salt or brown sugar (Add more or less depending on how sugary or salty you want them.)

PREPARATION:

Wash the seeds with warm water and no soap!!! Try to get all of the pumpkin stuff off of it. Pat them dry with a paper towel, but do not let them sit there too long because they might stick!!

Heat a skillet over medium low heat. Then add pumpkin seeds and cook, turn frequently, until nicely browned and crunchy. The seeds will probably start to pop. If using butter, you might have to lower the heat a bit more. It takes about 30 to 45 minutes for them to finish. Enjoy!!!
