30 Rock

The Author of this post is Freddy Savage

30 Rock is one of my favorite sitcoms that I miss right now! It didn’t come on with the usual new seasons when September sweeps started. I just saw a commercial though and it is starting again in January! Woohoo! I need more Liz Lemon in my life. I really enjoy the characters that Tiny Fey and crew have created. My favorite character on the show is Jack played by Alec Baldwin. He is great in this role and has such great chemistry with Tina Fey. Their comedic timing is perfect and they really steal the show from the rest of the actors. The show is based around another show that is produced by Liz Lemon. Alec Baldwin’s character is the president of the network. The rest of the crew are either writers on LL’s show or actors. The things they have to go through dealing with the talent on the show and the disgruntled writers is hilarious. Check it out on NBC coming this winter on direct tv. You won’t regret setting aside this 30 minutes of your day for 30 Rock.

Coming Up With Some St. Patty's Perfect Drink Recipes

Guest post written by Charlie Whitley

One of the best parts about throwing parties is coming up with all of the stuff that you're going to serve. Or at least it is for me, I was a bartender through college to pay my way so I love coming up with all kinds of new drinks. My friends all know my past job and are always asking me to mix up new drinks for them. Well, I'm going to try and come up with a custom drink for the party to serve.

I'm a little rusty on my drink making skills though because I don't go to as nearly as many parties or things like that as I used to. I decided to do some resea! rch to find some St. Patty's related drinks and while I was doing that online research, I came across the site ShopElectricityRatesTexas.com. I read through it a little bit and decided to switch over my home energy service to a new plan that I found on the site.

I did find a few different drinks, but all of them just sounded like standard fruity mixed drinks with a green colored mixer. I want to do something different than that. So I'm going to try to come up with some good mixed drink with Guinness.

My Children Know the Importance of Dressing to be Safe During Winter

Thanks for the article from Laura Ryan

During the winter, I am very strict about my children's dress code. I make them dress in layers, and I even purchase them two pairs of non skid boots each. We do not have a car, so my children and I walk a lot of places together. When nighttime approaches, i dress them in bright colored scarves and hats, so that drivers can see us when we are crossing the street.

We always walk on the sidewalks unless there is ice or snow buildup on them. In this case, we walk in the street but close to the curb. I make sure I keep them close and in front of me, so that I can see them at all time. I've even taught my babies how they should never cross the street, unless they can see clearly that the vehicle or vehicles have come to a complete stop. My children are so winter safety conscious now, that they often remind me when I'm not. My children are smart and they really pay attention to my concerns for them.

My oldest son takes all the reflective gear on their bikes and puts it on the back of all the children winter hats. How smart is that? We do a lot of walking, but I always remember to set the home security alarm( CLICK HERE ). Our things are too valuable to put at risk.
