My sincerest apologies…

Posted by Crystal on May 12, 2010 View Comments

My sincerest apologies if you visited my site over the weekend and noticed the weird virus that attacked my blog. Unfortunately, this is one of the downsides of the internet. Random attacking viruses just meant to get in people’s way. It’s too bad that bad programmers are working just as hard as good programmers just to annoy people.

Be rest assured that I’ve been working for the past 24 hours with little sleep to get rid of the virus and I’m happy to report it is gone! (All I had to do was delete my files and rebuild my site…aren’t you jealous?) I also now have my website being monitored 24/7 for suspicious activity by a website security company to help guard this from happening again. If you are worried that your computer may have been negatively effected by this, please make sure you have your security/anti-virus software (you’ll also want to make sure you’re running the most up-to-date version of that software) run a scan of your computer. If you don’t have any security/anti-virus software on your computer, you can download AVAST for free (simply follow the directions for downloading and running on your computer, I would suggest a full computer scan). This is what I use on our PC.

Posted by Crystal on April 28, 2010 View Comments

Okay, I hope you’re loving all the videos so far because today we’re getting into the really fun stuff and there are THREE more videos! (If you missed the first day of this class, make sure you click HERE so you don’t miss a thing!) You’ll be able to see for yourself how EASY it is to start cooking basic items in your pressure cooker to save you time in the kitchen! Check out the videos below to see just how easy it is to cook beans, rice, and wheat berries in a pressure cooker. Make sure if you have a different pressure cooker than I do that you reference YOUR owner’s manual for specific times and measurements for these items. I’ve also added some homework items for you (yes, I said homework! I want you to actually TRY these concepts for yourself!) they are fun recipes you can try that I like to use OR you can try your own recipe. Make sure to leave a comment with successes and questions so we all can learn from each other!
