Healthier Coffee: If you want a quick and easy way to less guilty coffee, consider switching from half and half to evaporated milk. It contains about the same number of calories, but is much lower in fat. You will be surprised at how creamy it is, and it is more nutritious. Plus, for those on a budget, it costs less than half as much.

October 27: Free Printables!
October 28, 2008 at 2:02 am | Posted in Printables | Leave a commentI love free printables. They save me from having to reinvent the wheel, or purchase things I could easily print at home.
Donna Young has fabulous printables!
I wanted to print out some number lines for Middle Sister, who is studying integers. This site allows you to make your own number lines and other graph paper–easy to customize, and you can save the resulting PDF to your computer for future use.
Here’s a cool site to make your own staff paper and guitar tablature templates.
DIY Planner has planner pages of all formats and sizes.
PocketMod is a tiny foldable organizer. It has 8 “pages” and is disposable when you’re done with it. Great to keep in your pocket or purse.
Houseworks Planner has tons of forms for a household binder.
A big THANK YOU to the people who have shared their hard work on these sites!
