Poisonous Fruits....

Many of the fruits we might be eating are poisonous... well the seeds and pits are...

Cherries, plums, peaches, and apricots pits, chirimoya and apple seeds contain cyanogenic glycosides which create cyanide (a toxic chemical compound)... This when eaten in small amounts will not harm but in larger quantities can cause harm, especially when chewed or crushed.

SO watch out for this next time your enjoying these fruits!

Provecho!!!

COUPONS!!!

I am a big fan of coupons, I actually see them as currency. Im not a Crazy coupon girl, or an Extreme Couponer, But I do use them here and there. Why not? why not use coupons on items you are going to purchase? Why no save .25 cents or Even $1 or two? Why not save?

Every sunday I purchase the LA TIMES. Every sunday the newspapare is full of hundrends of dollars in savings. Sometimes, depending on what coupons are futured in the paper, I might purchased more than one newspaper. (I actually find out before hand - Preview )

Many times you can score free item coupons!

Depending on the store you might be able to combine a Manufacture coupon with a Store coupon, meaning MORE SAVINGS! TARGET is the best place for coupon stacking. Their website offers many store coupons.

There are coupons everywhere. Newspaper, online, mobile coupons, and there are even Coupon Clippers around.
So why not give it a try and start couponing, but beware .. it might be addicting. :)

happy couponing everyone
