Thank you, Emma. If you have any suggestions on what you would like to see more blogs on, I would love to hear them. I'm running out of ideas. Thanks again.
Healthy Snacking - Part II
I had written a blog some time ago about healthy snacking at work. My newest dilemma is snacking while at school. Working an 8-5 job and then rushing to school afterwards (and being there until after 8 pm) makes for a long day, and a very loud, growling stomach. My school campus is filled with...

Rubbermaid Home Products does not currently offer an angle wall bracket. I do apologize for any inconvenience.
It is suggested to contact Rubbermaid Builder for a possible part that they may manufacture. They can be reached by calling toll free 877-533-1197.

Thank you for the tips with the plastic knife. I have never heard of this before, but I am always willing to give any new idea a try. I always move my veggies to a different shelf if I am storing raw meat, but that's not often. It is a great and safe reminder though, so thank you.
The Bottom Shelf Salad Bar
I have learned, the hard way, that veggies never last as long as I would like them to. I also found that if I don't have them ready-to-eat they go untouched. Actually, they go untouched until I clean my fridge and I end up having to throw away my hard-earned dollar disguised as limp, lifeless ...

Thank you Connie. I

try. The Chicken Gnocchi Soup recipe I got from www.ehow.com was amazing! I would
definitely suggest trying this, if youre a soup lover.
Heres the link to the recipe:

My First Slow Cooker Meal
I have always been a fan of a good pot roast, but have never had the courage to make one myself. While it's simple enough, I was always fearful that I could mess up a good thing. Well, I threw caution to the wind and finally decided the cool, almost fall weather was ideal for a pot roast. I co...
This is great news for me. I have started a new work out plan, and completely made over my eating habits. I am so happy to hear, especially with winter coming, that I can keep my crock pot meals in my diet. Thank you.

Lauren,
Thanks so much for the recipes. I will have to try these out, especially since it's getting cooler here. I found a new recipe for Chicken Gnocchi soup - if it's a "go", I will have to add the recipe.

I love the idea of keeping chips in smaller containers, and have even found that the 100 calorie packs keep my grazing at a minimum. I try not to keep such items in my cupboard, but when I crave my junk food, ignoring these cravings has resulted in overindulgent distasters. Smaller snacks and eating slowly has helped me to really enjoy, and appreciate, my junk food. Thank you Jill!
A New Way of Eating
I had decided that 2010 was the year I wanted to get healthy, and stay healthy. I joined my local YMCA and started the grueling process of working out, eating right, and getting more rest. Find your local YMCA at www.ymca.net. Nearly three months later, I found that my initial regimen just wasn...

Greg,
The anchors are attached to the bracket to allow for an
all-in-one piece of hardware. With the above instructions, you should only
need to measure once: starting at the back clip height (which should be level),
measure out the depth of your shelf on the side wall and then the second hole
below your first(distance will depend on the style of shelf).
The stems can be cut from the back of the wall end
bracket and replaced with drywall anchors. Please note that the drive pin
provided with the bracket may also need to be replaced with the appropriate
hardware suggested for use with the drywall anchor.
If you need further assistance, please contact our
Consumer Service Department at 1-888-895-2110 (M-F, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm
ET).
Thank you,

Julie,
Thanks for the great idea with the s-hooks, I will definitely have to look into these the next time I'm out and about. Good luck with your laundry room! The Over-the-Door Organizer may not hold large items like laundry detergent, but it would be great for organizing my stain removers, fabric softeners, and using one basket for the "lost" socks I can't find a match to.
Thanks again,
Jamie
Small Place = Little Storage Space
While I love having my own apartment, I struggle to find places for all of my stuff. And, to be quite honest, I didn't realize just how much stuff I had until I tried to find storage space in a one bedroom apartment. What genius do I thank for creating closet doors (how else do I hide the clu...
Car accidents are never fun - but to throw in cold weather, snow, and/or ice on top of it? No thank you. Glad you're okay, Lauren!
You don't have to shovel sunshine!
Well, I was hoping that the Ohio weather would hold off until Christmas, give a slight dusting, and then melt away to nothing. A girl can dream, right? With going to class at night, I have found that I really need to make sure I have a Winter Survival Kit in my car. There have been a few scary...

Tis' the Season... for HEALTHY snacking!

The Salad Spinner I use does keep my lettuce fresh for about 5 days, which I found at a discount store for only a few dollars. Before I purchased it, I had a few others tricks I
used; however,I would avoid the Produce Keeper as this container is ideal for uncut veggies.
I used to keep my ready-to-eat lettuce in a large Rubbermaid Easy Find Lidscontainer lined with damp paper towels. It worked well at keeping the lettuce from getting
brown.
Also, if you are a fan of wedge salads, you can wrap your lettuce in aluminum foil to keep it fresh. I love wedge salads because you have to use a knife to eat it, so it tends to
feel like I am eating something heartier than just a salad. The foil kept it really crisp!

Lauren, I am a lover of dried cranberries, feta cheese,
and almond slivers on salads, so now Im going to have to stock my cupboards. Thanks for the great idea!
Janis, I am so glad I could inspire you. With Thanksgiving around the corner, I cant wait to add left over turkey to my
spread. Enjoy!
