Vintage Knox Gelatine Recipes that Helps you Stetch Butter and More







I was going through some old cookbooks that I am listing on eBay and came across this recipe on how to take Knox Gelatine and mix it with butter to make a spread. It takes a quarter pound of butter and makes a half pound of spread. I thought it was interesting and thought I would post it for others. Enjoy!


As I said I came across a Knox Gelatine recipe book from way back. I found it interesting that since I knew that gelatin was good for nails and hair that there were many other thing it was good for also.



I am listing some of the items discussed in the cookbook and I will give you a new recipe that will help stretch the family budget in a healthy way. As a child I remember helping my mother make gelatin recipes and always had fun doing it. They are great make ahead meals for scheduling in busy days.



_from the cookbook________________________________________



Infant Feeding: Studies show that when Knox Gelatine is added to cow's mil, there is a marked reduction of the curd tension as compared with the same milk before adding gelatin - thus making milk more easily digestible.



Peptic Ulcer: Scientific research s shown that Knox Gelatine is particularly effective for the frequent feedings in the management of peptic ulcer.



Diabetes: Knox Gelatine, because it is free from carbohydrate, is a real boon in the diet of diabetics. It can be used in a wide variety of wholesome, tempting dishes.



As a Protein Drink: Hundreds of men and women engaged in strenuous occupations volunteered to drink Knox Gelatine regularly to see if it would help keep up their endurance. After 28 days, 2 out of 3 said they noticed that they felt better at the end of their day's work. Try it -- and see if you don't notice a difference. You'll find directions for drinking Knox Gelatine in every package.

How to Stop Harassing Phone Calls from Bill Collectors


I have a good friend that has been going through a hard time right now, like so many other people out there. She has been under so much stress after losing her job, maybe losing her house and not being able to pay her credit card bills and still buy food and clothes for her two children.

She has tried to work things out with the credit card companies but they do not seem to want to help or work with her to make lower payments. All they were doing was calling everyday and harassing her, making her feel worse than she already did and the stress was starting to make her ill, physically ill.

She found an article on the Internet and said it helped her a lot.

I thought of all the other people out there that possible could use the information in the article to get the Harassing calls (I'm not talking about the nice calls but the people that call, threatening, are rude, the ones that keep calling after you tell them to quit, etc) to cease.

If this sounds like you or you know someone who is in the same situation, read it now.

Stimulus Program has Money to Weatherize your House


States are getting a boost in federal money to weatherize drafty homes, an increase so large it has set off a scramble to find workers and houses for them to repair.

An obscure program that installs insulation in homes and makes them more energy efficient is distributing $4.7 billion in stimulus funds.

That is enough to weatherize 1 million homes each year.

President Obama said pouring money into the program would lower utility bills for cash strapped families, provide jobs for construction workers idled by the housing slump and make the nation more energy efficient.

The program helps low-income families take steps to reduce their home energy expenses, from caulking leaky windows to replacing heating and cooling systems. The Energy Department says 6.2 million households have benefited since it began in 1976, saving the average household about $350 a year in energy bills.

In many states, qualified homeowners are already on waiting list. But some states do not have enough recipients signed up.

To help find them, states are updating Web sites about the expanded program and working with non-profit groups, churches and the news media to get the word out.

Coupons, Grocery Store and Online, a Must in this Economy.





When I was first married my new husband thought it was funny that I clipped coupons and checked the paper and magazines for deals. This was until he went to the store with me and I saved $15.25 on my grocery bill. I also sent in for a $10.00 rebate for one of the items I purchased. He never laughed again.


Pinching pennies, coupon clipping, website searching and coupon printing, in today's economy all are a must do. People use to say that coupons are not necessary but back then there were only about 23 million coupons offered, now there are around 300 billion coupons available.


Besides the newspaper there are full magazines available full of coupons, Refundle Bundle is one by the Coupon Queen Susan Samtur. Web sites such as couponmom.com, coupons.smartsource.com and couponwinner.com are just a few that have coupons available. Some web sites allow you to download and print many coupons at once.


Codes are available to enter when buying online. Promotionalcodes.com is just one website for these.

Go online and do a search for coupon sources, I am not as good as some of my friends that can save over 50% on their grogeries. I consider myself small time but I do enjoy looking for that bargain purchase.

Get Going and Save Money NOW!!

Tiger Wood's First Swing at The US Open




I was watching the today show this morning and they were showing the first tee off for Tiger Woods and 2 of the other Champions at the US Open this morning.

Cabrera's tee shot went into the rough on the fairway and Harrington's tee shot stayed on the fairway. Tiger Woods came to the tee and hit his tee shot. What happened!

The look on Tiger's face said it all. What Happened!!! He hooked the shot to the left. About 50 feet into the rough near the front of a merchandise tent. It was said that he even considered playing a second ball from the tee.

He salvaged par on that first hole before rain caused the 1st Round to be Suspended.

I felt so bad when I saw the look of amazement on his face. The look said "What Happened!"

The weekend weather is predicted to be wet; very, very wet!
