Our supper today was Campbell’s Super Bakes Garlic Chicken with Pasta. This is the first time I have bought this product, so today was the trial. Well, what can I say… It was a meal. Not bad, but nothing special, either.
The package includes pasta, a can of baking sauce, …

The other day while I was shopping at the Dollar General, I walked down one of their grocery aisles and saw they had only two bags of egg noodles on their shelf. Thinking they must be good if all of the other bags were sold out, I put the …

Corona beer is unique in the taste and other great thing is the smoothness of the beer. I normally drink five to six bottles of Corona beer at a stretch easily. However the liquor content of six percentages makes it well a light beer compared with many other brands. …

I did not find anything all that spectacular about Mrs. Freshley’s Pecan Twirls. I simply found them to be satisfactory and pretty much identical to the other pecan swirl treats sold by other companies. That is both a good and bad thing. It is a good thing because I …

Stouffer’s Smoked Turkey Club Panini is not quite as good as some of Stouffer’s other frozen sandwiches, but I nonetheless still enjoyed the sandwich and will likely purchase it again now and then. The smoked turkey slices have a good flavor to them, and I am not even that …

I’m on a mission to lose weight. It’s hard work. It takes dedication and it takes lots and lots of willpower. I don’t believe in depriving myself of every delicious morsel or tall frosty glass of pleasure that may not fit into a structured diet. After all, forbidden fruits …

I often have to drive long distances. Sometimes, I do it in company. If I’m with the family, there’s always someone to keep me chatting. I can listen to music to stay alert. It’s when it gets dark and people doze off that danger can occur. The same thing …
