remembering treats from my childhood

When I was a child, my family was one of the few ethnic ones in the neighborhood.  I remember that all the kids would come to my house and be amazed at the food available.  No matter what time of day you could find something warm to eat on the stove.  Ok...maybe not in the middle of the night. Well, one of my favorite treats were the Pizelle's.  Most of the time, my Mom would drag out the Pizelle maker when she was throwing a party or at a holiday event, but it was truly a special afternoon when she would just get it out for the heck of it.  These are simple "waffle" like cookies that can be eaten warm or at room temperature.  The best way I like it is warm with a nice layering of Nutella on it.  If you haven't tried these lovely treats, you should.  I have found that Amazon.com often has great bargains on the machines.  You can pick up a high quality machine like this Cuisinart for around $37.72.  Feel free to use the link to research them yourself and let me know how you like to eat your Pizelle.

Not so crazy hard after all...

Well, since I focused so much last time on how to make money and have fun doing it, I thought I would give you an update.  I had some really great people step in and help me. I have placed the links of these 3  fellow bloggers on my site. Please refer to them too, and thank you!  Most money making opportunities seem to be by using affiliates and monetizing.  I have started using Amazon as my 1st affiliate.  It truly is a simple process.  I have worked with them (as many of you have) for years.  I find that this is THE go to spot to find a deal on the items that give you what you want at a great deal.  They have a program that focuses items to place on my blog that fit the parameters that I make.  Of course, for all of you that know me, I am first focused on a good deal.  For it to be a good deal to me I need to fill the following fields:

• I must need it. 
• It must be an item that is an excellent quality
• It must be at least 75% off, but I truly prefer it to be around 60%

So, I put these parameters as well as others in the fields presented and they came up with the deals you see on this site.  I would encourage you to click on the link and buy it if they fit your needs as well.  I plan on posting the deal of the day to Twitter and FB so that you don't need to wonder what's going on.  Please post on FB or re-tweet so that the word spreads. This can only succeed with your help.  Thanks so much and it's off to the races now.  See???? It's not so crazy hard.  

Ciao!
