What's a Tortilla Warmer?

Sometime ago, I saw an advertisement for tortilla warmers and loved the idea. They looked fun and useful but the cost was $8.00 - $12.00 each, depending on the size, plus shipping. "What a great way to use up scraps!" I thought. So, I tore out the ad and saved it. I came across it the other...

A Quick Gift for Father's Day

At our house we always seem to be slightly behind and end up cramming to get our father's day gifts done the night before that special day. Sometimes they don't go as planned and we spend a frustrating time figuring out what to do. This year we decided to change this (maybe the rain, rain and...
