You might consider yourself set if you’ve managed to pay down all of your outstanding debts, or maybe you won’t feel you have financial independence until you hit the lottery.

So it’s probably no surprise that I like to make i-spy pages for all of the holidays....

K came with me and helped me pick out some of his favorite treats – Dasani Water, Wheat Thins, and Halloween Oreos. And I saw the Orange Fanta and knew it would be perfect with its bright orange color and Halloween decorated cans. Luckily the Wheat Thins and Oreos are both in the snack aisle and the Fanta and Dasani are both in the beverage aisle, so it was a short shopping trip....
Native to Southeast Asia, galangal root looks so similar in appearance to ginger that it’s sometimes referred to as “Thai ginger”’ or “Siamese ginger.” While ginger is used more universally, galangal is specifically utilized in Southeast Asian cuisines, such as Thai, Indonesian, and Vietnamese cooking.
