Tovala is now letting its subscribers in on other vendors who sell products that cook via the Tovala scanner (you scan a code and the oven sets the correct temperature and time).

One pizza company offers two deep dish 9-inch pizzas. Price: $80.

Another company offers six scones: Price $40 (I've never had a scone worth $6+).

They also offer bagels, but I never have looked into what those cost.

If you bake and can market your foods to the Tovala standard, you can really make money.

So I went to Costco and ordered a sheet cake

I read somewhere that Costco no longer has sheet cakes. I am not surprised to find they still have them.

Actually it was a half sheet size, I don’t think they do full sheet cakes anymore

Thanks, not that I plan on buying one.

That's nice.

Every Fathers Day since the event there is a fundraiser fun run that shuts down my street from about 830am until 11

Who does the money go to?

I just heard on the news that Utah has a group looking to ban passages in The Bible that deal with sex and other vices.

The person being interviewed said there is a group of six who have been stirring the pot in the state and have identified 94 works of literature they want censored or banned.

I figure they are all folks who never read, who vote out of fear instead of intellect, and who likely didn't go to college/university. I could be wrong, of course. They could have degrees, but they probably don't read or cannot read.

We have a bake shop in beautiful downtown Edgefield. They don't actually bake their own goods...the get them from a bakery in Lexington SC, which is about 60 miles away.

A slice of cake is about $8.00. A sweet roll is about $4. And none are truly very good.

Happily they do sandwiches and things at much better pricing.

If you buy a cake from QVC or some of those online sites, the cost is $60 to $80 for a 9-inch cake.

I could bake a whole slew of those cakes for that much money.

Oh my goodness!

Scholarships for children of firefighters . I’m not sure if it’s all firefighters or those who were injured in the line of duty
