Slow Cooker Potato and Ham Soup Recipe

Saving Cents With Sense

Slow Cooker Potato and Ham Soup Recipe. This is one of my favorite soups – probably because it is just so simple, but everyone loves it and it is a perfect “fix it and forget it” recipe. I’ve been making it for years and it is a great meal, even in the summer, because you use the slow cooker, so it doesn’t heat up your kitchen. I usually make this with bacon, but after all the leftover ham from Easter , I wanted to try it with ham, and you know what?

Why Being Rich is Overrated

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

Wealth is portrayed in movies as being the ultimate prize. People buy lottery tickets, hoping to strike it rich. Others dream of attaining riches and exerting great influence. The main reason why being rich is overrated is that it has been shown that money can’t buy happiness. Many millionaires find that their pursuit of wealth has come at a price and that their money doesn’t give them the pleasure, peace of mind and influence that they expected.

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

Water is good for you, but let’s face it, water can get boring. As a result, nearly all of us drink something else as well. This may be tea, coffee, soda, beer, wine, and the list goes on. However, our quest to find interesting drink options, can lead us to spending more money than we realize. For example, let’s say you spend $6 a day on coffee for five days out of the week.

With rising gas prices at the pump, it can be down right painful to fill up at the gas station. And with the American Automobile Association (AAA) reported this week that the national average is $3.93 for a gallon of gas, we know that it will probably only get worse as the summer rolls on. Of course, driving less can help reduce the amount of gas you use, and therefore need to buy, but when carpooling, riding your bike, or using alternative transportation just isn’t feasible, then you can still

4 Good Reasons To Buy Travel Insurance

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

Insurance has always been something that most of us aren’t really sure about getting. Although life insurance sounds sensible, other types of insurance such as travel insurance may make us think twice. After all, going on a holiday trip or even a business trip can already cost us a lot in terms of fare, hotel stay, and food. Why should we spend more just to have insurance we might not even need?
