My girlfriend knows how much I like a nice hot bowl of soup or chili. We are pretty busy a good deal of the time so we have come to appreciate items such as these. At first I was really pretty doubtful as to how these would stand up in the microwave. I like my food served really hot and I could just picture these bowls soaking right through. This did not turn out to be the case though and ...

When my husband's daughter and family decided to visit us in Nevada, they decided to make it a great family vacation and stayed at Lake Tahoe. Our son-in-law wanted to go on a Lake Tahoe cruise. Price was a factor because they have two children under ten years old.So we decided on the MS Dixie II, which is a paddle wheel boat that can hold 570 passengers. This particular boat had five cruis...

We're always looking for something unusual for our antique business. Recently, we had the opportunity to attend an estate sale representing a lifetime collection of movie memorabilia, which included cameras, movie posters, movie reels and much more. It was like a journey back in time! We purchased a few antique cameras and several great movie posters from the 1940's. The posters include...

Last Thanksgiving we went to Branson, Missouri. We had never been to the Dixie Stampede Dinner Show and we thought we would give it a try. It was mediocre at best.

The food was dry and bland. They d...

Petroleum jelly baby fresh scent is a very good and effective product especiallly for babies. It is important to keep a baby's body soft and hydrated and this petroleum jelly does the job. To me certain products have to be name brands. Most of them work the same as those that are not brand names. This vaseline is from winn dixie and it is compared to vaseline nursery jelly. To me, thei...

For christmas last year, my mother-in-law gave me and my boyfriend tickets to the Dixie Stampede in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. We didn't use them until February when we actually took a little vacation from the kids and went to Myrtle Beach for the weekend. The Dixie Stampede is an excellent show. I recommend it to anyone even children. When you go in they take your picture in case y...
