Currently Reading

For the longest time I have had a infatuation with how life was in the 40's. Years ago I watched a documentary about how life was when WWII started. It made me think just what did my Grandmother and Grandfather go through? At that time she would have had 4 or 5 children she was raising, how she had to save scraps and how to make sure there was a meal for the next day. I distinctively remember how she would save her pasta water and let it cool only to add it to her plants later. When your young you don't think little memories like that mean much but when your Grandparents are gone and you remember those little tid bits, it kinda makes sense why she would re purpose that water.

Alliance for Period Supplies

What most don't realize is the need for period supplies. I can distinctly remember being in school and not having the supplies needed for a unexpected period.

Even after May 31, I will still honor my pledge and continue to spread this information. What can you do to help?

You will need to enter your EBT card number, which they will validate.  This includes ordering from Amazon Pantry - but if your order is under $35 you will have a $5.99 shipping charge. Once your place the order in the cart, make sure your EBT card is charged and not your debit card. When you place the order with your EBT card, you will be taken to another page to enter your PIN number.  Convenient for those hard to find items local stores do not carry but most importantly, you do not have to leave the house! Let's not forget Walmart, however, you have to order from them online and then go pick the groceries up. Honestly, my preferred choice is Amazon because if I am paying for Prime, they b...

For all the clearance shoppers, penny shoppers, consider donating the diapers not just to your local shelter or food bank but to this organization.  Help #EndDiaperNeed
