Four new postings! Take a look!

Rosemary is an easy to grow perennial herb that everyone should have in his or her garden. Having a perennial and annual herb garden is a simple and tasty method of reducing your food costs. Just think if you are making a side dish of mashed potatoes with leaks and Rosemary, no longer would you have to buy that small container of old dried over priced rosemary herb. Instead you could simply walk out your front, (or back), door and pick a handful of rosemary leaves, chop them in your blender and add to your recipe. Fresh herbs will provide a much bigger kick in flavor to any dish so be careful when switching from dried herbs to fresh.....

The purpose of the tax was to help pay for the debts incurred during the Revolutionary War. ...

Known as the TEA Party, this “new” national party and all of its chapters have been a major player in the fight for lower taxes and even had a direct impact upon the 2010 Congressional elections. Despite the ground swell regarding spending and taxes, no lasting effect upon the levels of taxation or the methods of collection for these taxes has been implemented. Nor does it seem there will be any significant changes before the 2012 Congressional / Presidential elections. Yet in Georgia, Governor Deal Georgia’s newest Governor, has been floating trial balloons suggesting that the onerous Georgia State property tax and income taxes maybe going the way of the Dodo bird. ....

I hope you liked today's postings!
