Playing Movies on My TV from My iPod!

Not long ago I downloaded a movie onto my husband's iPod (2012) so he could watch it on a long plane ride for a business trip. Recently, we began to long for a future where you could just dock your iPod and watch a movie on the big screen. As you know, kids can easily destroy DVDs and VCR tapes. So in our Saturday slothfulness, I said "Hey honey, you know that docking station in the kitchen that I bought last year? I think it allows you to hook up to a TV and play your movies." I did actually read the description when I purchased it, kind of.

So my sweet husband gets it and messes with the TV and speakers a bit... and TADA we can now watch our iPod movies on a large flat screen (2012 was awesome). The picture is great and the sound, which he hooked up to the speakers, is perfect. Now I am probably behind on the whole technology TV viewing thing, but just in case you have not tried this, it is totally cool. Imagine the space you can save in your house without all the DVDs and VCR tapes floating around.

Bargain Meal of the Week 4/16/10

It's time for another week of Bargain Meals! Erin over at $5 Dinners (a great read!) is hosting a gathering of bloggers all over the Internet, creating frugal meals straight from the sales circulars of their favorite stores. Check it out for even more inspiration. I contribute every week for the current sales at Publix, which run from Wednesday to the following Tuesday. Keep in mind that you do not need to purchase two of a product to get the buy one get one price. Publix marks down their products to half price for the BOGO deals.

Items on sale that can be used in this meal:

Whole Chicken, 99¢ lb

Honey Baked Chicken

Ingredients:

• 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup prepared mustard
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon curry powder

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Place chicken pieces in a shallow baking pan, skin side up. Combine the melted butter or margarine, honey, mustard, salt and curry powder and pour the mixture over the chicken. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/4 hours (75 minutes), basting every 15 minutes with pan drippings, until the chicken is nicely browned and tender and the juices run clear.

Serve with rice and steamed carrots.

Just Paid Tax at Publix!

I have not done much shopping lately. It's not that I haven't wanted to shop, buy I would have had to take my kids with me. My oldest sons (9 and 6) go to a public balanced calendar school. This means that spring break lasts three weeks. The first week you can sign up for additional classes at school which we did. They get to learn new and unusual things like guitar or clay making. The next two weeks they have been coming to the city with me so that they can go to my employer's childcare center. That means that my first stop after work is to pick them up before the 20-30 minute commute home. So if I shopped, it would mean taking them. It is torture. Not only do I spend too much, but I get home frustrated and in a bad mood from saying things like "Come here, NOW!" and "You can not ride under the cart!" and "You have fifteen pounds of candy from Easter, you do not need any more!"

So now that they are back in school, and I have a few minutes between work and pick-up, I was very excited to shop. And, better yet, there are some great deals at Publix this week (prices good through next Tuesday)!
