Cricut Celebrates 100 cartridges!
Wow! Cricut is celebrating its 100th cartridge release "Winter Woodland" by giving away 100 cartridges. See the new cartridge at: http://www.cricut.com/shopping/ProductDetails.aspx?id=361&s=1&sc=2 . And just for the record, I don't have all 100 cartridges. I only have 32 :)

09-09-09
What were you doing at 9:09 pm on 09-09-09? I was enjoying some quiet time out in my gazebo and searching the web. The weather was breezy and cool - hinting at the coming of fall. I came across a great idea called "Chasing 99." It's a website and blog that challenges us to read the whole bible, just the New Testament, or just the gospels and Acts in 99 days. Day 1 is on 9-9. I am challenging myself to read the NT. It will take about 15 minutes a day. Certainly I can watch 15 minutes less of television, or 15 minutes less of Facebook or computer time. Maybe even 15 minutes of time with Mr. Cricut (gasp!). If you'd like to join me, go to www.chasing99.org to get the overview and schedule and then check out the daily blog at chasing99nt.blogspot.com. Be blessed!

Money Saving Websites
Here are some of my frequently visited websites/blogs where I find coupons, good deals, freebies, and encouragement.
http://www.5dollardinners.com/
You really can make a meal for 4 or more with less than $5. The web author, Erin, has great articles and recipe ideas. Click on the “Bargain Meal of the Week” box located at the right and then find your grocery store to find $5 meal recipes/ideas.
This one you have to register/log in for, but it’s free. It allows you to find your store and look at all the sales plus coupons for great deals.
print off your Target coupons here – Super Target lets you use their coupon PLUS manufacturer’s coupons for great deals – sometimes free or almost free
