Charles That looks really good. I love grits, although I don’t have them very often. My go-to breakfast when I dine in is eggs Benedict. However, if they have grits wherever I go next, you have inspired me to change it up.

Jim Bauer @porwest (64890) • United States 20 Nov

I guess it is one of the joys of having money and at the same time being quite a bit money hungry. But, it is also a part of having a very well defined and systematic approach to everything money related. From budgeting to...

Charles This month has flown by. This time of the year is always a whirlwind. We invested in a nice fake tree a couple years back. We love it. It’s not the same as a real one, but the convenience of it is nice. But I agree. Let’s go summer!
