Experience Traditional Americana At Johnny Rockets’

On our upcoming Vegas trip, we are excited to get the opportunity to eat at Johnny Rockets at the Venetian Food Court.

The first Johnny Rockets opened in 1986 in Los Angeles with a belief that everyone deserves a place where they can escape from today’s complicated world and to experience Americana’s uncomplicated goodness-in fact name originated from the timeless Johnny Appleseed story. Each year, Johnny Rockets serves 17 million hamburgers, 11.3 million soda pops, 8.3 million shakes and malts, 8 million pounds of fries, 2.1 million orders of onion rings and 815,000 gallons of ice cream. This is truly the place for classic “American Cuisine” with a huge selection of their 1/3 pound hamburgers, rocket-melts, sandwiches, and starters. To complete the Johnny Rockets’ Americana experience make sure to grab some mouth watering shakes, malts and floats available in dozens of different flavours.

We love the general atmosphere as well as the delicious and fun food.We don't have Johnny Rockets where we live, so take full advantage of them when we travel! Click here to find a Johnny Rockets location nearest you.

Saturday-January 28th-A Cave In

Wasn't what Gerry wanted to see this morning when he headed outside to shovel snow off the roof of our trailer, but he noticed the car port that we use for storage, had a caved in roof!

Snow had weighed it down and buckled it inwards.

No rips or tears but piping on the inside was bent. Gerry had to run to the hardware store and now has to construct beams inside the car port to keep everything up.Temperatures were -28 with the wind this morning, so not something you really want to be doing when it's cold out, but had to be fixed nonetheless.

***Sunday brought us a leaky hot water tank- setting us back another $340!

5 Ways To Say “I Love You” For Less

Valentine's Day is only days away, and many of us are probably still scrambling around trying to find the right way to say “I love you” to those who mean so much to us. However, roses, fine candies, and fine jewelry can all come with a steep price tag – ones so steep that they aren't always feasible. So instead of looking at the latest in men's rings or purchasing $100 worth of red roses, consider doing some of the following for an inexpensive Valentine's Day treat:

Homemade Cards

You may think that homemade cards are for kiddos, but they can mean a lot to your significant other as well. The time that you put in to creating a card will not only be a nice throwback which will be sure to give your partner warm and fuzzies, but the card will also be more personal which is sure to please your partner. Not only that, but you won't have to deal with hunting through vast rows of cards or waiting in lines at retail stores, and you can make it with items already within your home.

Make Your Own Delectables

Instead of spending an arm and a leg on chocolate covered strawberries or a decadent candy of choice, consider making it yourself. Most candies and confectioner delights are easy and relatively inexpensive to make, and allow you to add your own personal touch. They also prevent you from having to order weeks in advance, and allow you to create fresher treats.

Dine In

Going out is often a tradition on Valetine's Day, and while it is nice to go out, it can lead to an incredibly high bill – with many fine restaurants clearing tabs as high as $100. To stay within budget, cook your partner's favorite meal at home. If you have kids, send them to a willing relative's house and cook a romantic meal with your partner. It will be a great, inexpensive way for you two to get quality time together, and you won't have to worry about getting all dressed up.

Do a Few Chores

Are there a few things that your partner always does even though they hate it – such as laundry, cleaning the bathroom, or scrubbing floors? Instead of letting them do it, yet again, consider doing a few household chores for them as an extra sign of your appreciation for them being in your life. Sure, it might require a little more effort on your part, but your partner will be surprised and delighted to come home with nothing to do but put up their feet.

Give a Sensual Massage

There is nothing more personal and romantic than treating your partner to something similar to a spa night. If you really want to have a great Valentine's day night, simply run a warm bath for your partner and then follow it up with a massage. Aside from the cost of bubble bath and massage oil, it is virtually free and will provide you with a bit of intimacy.

Valentine's Day truly is a great time to tell someone you love them, but that doesn't mean that it should leave you in the red or charging credit cards. If you don't have a big budget for the upcoming holiday, don't sweat it. Simply use some imagination, and you should be able to come up with several great ways to have an enjoyable Valentine's Day without the high bills.

Review: Sandy Feet Cards

Sandy Feet Cards  is a division of Sandmade Photos and is located on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.The husband and wife team take messages written in the sand and turn them into one of a kind note cards.They  have a large selection of cards that can work for a variety of occasions and if you do not see a sandwritten message that works for you, they will be happy to write something custom for you.

 A great deal of patience is required to make sure each image comes out just right. When you work with something that is constantly moving like the barrier islands of the Outer Banks…the result is unique and beautiful, and you can truly see this in their unique cards. I had a variety of the cards to review and they were all quite nice . I would think that these would also have been nice to see in color, although that is not an option with these cards.

Be sure to check out their great selection of one of a kind Valentine's Day cards and get yours ordered today.( Please note: these cards come blank inside.)

Start your fashion with a sense of true beauty, Giovanni style.

Their hair care line has a huge range of shampoos, conditioners, repair treatments and styling/finishing aids. Select from rich pomades, sleeking gels, bodybuilding mousses and more.

I had the opportunity to try their TEA TREE TRIPLE TREAT SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER and loved it. At first I wasn't too sure if the shampoo was really cleaning my hair as it didn't suds up as much as my regular shampoo,but once I shampooed and after applying conditioner and rinsing, I knew it DID do something! My hair and scalp felt amazing. There was a cooling feeling on my scalp for at least half hour after I did my hair.My scalp tingled and my hair truly felt clean.The conditioner was quite nice to use as well. Thick ,tea tree oil scented, and really worked to make my hair more manageable to comb after my shower.

Each Giovanni Eco Chic Hair Care formula contains a blend of exotic organic oils, ripe harvested from renewable plants at the peak of their freshness. The oils are cold pressed and refrigerated immediately to ensure maximum purity. For strong, vibrant, beautiful hair.

Giovanni products are FREE of phthalates, sulfates, parabens and propylene glycol.

Never tested on animals and  with eco-friendly packaging. I loved the thin design of my bottles- they both stood up and molded themselves against my tub surround wall.I thought they were chic.Giovanni believes that fashion starts, not the in closet, but in the shower.

Available at: Loblaws, Whole Foods, Walmart (haircare line) , Shopper’s Drug Mart (haircare line), and specialty Health Food Stores.
