How to make an amazing air cooler for summer - YouTube

 How to make an amazing air cooler for summer - YouTube

 

You never know when your AC could go out or you might not have one where you are at. This could help you to keep cool during the hot summer.  It would have to be better than nothing.

 

 

Cool Off & Have Fun

 

A Blow Up Pool is a must in this heat if you don't have a in ground pool or pond! We would never leave the house if we didn't have one. LOL The humidity was 100% yesterday here, so our pool was a great way to cool down and have fun. To make it to where I did not have to clean and refill every single day, I got these to help - HydroTools by Swimline Floating Mini Tablet Spa Chemical Dispenser and Clorox Pool&Spa Small Pool 1" Chlorinating Tablets 1.5 lb. They really help, a lot.  A Pool Cover is what I am going to get soon. 

Keeping cool should be fun , not a lot of work.

Drain water from potatoes and cut them into 3/4” cubes.

 Spray each piece of foil with non-stick cooking spray.

 Place a chicken breast in the center of each section of foil. 

Add 1/4 of each of the rest of the ingredients on top of the chicken.

Just heat up the chicken and make the taco meat as it says to on the pack of seasoning. Create your tacos! Refried beans, sour cream, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, and whatever else.

They Are Growing...





The herbs are growing a bit! They are hanging on my fence in this Over The Door Hanging Shoe Organizer. Easy to do - more info here - DIY & Frugal Hanging Herb Garden PART 2 . We have not had any rain in a while so I have been watering it every day. They seem to be growing pretty good. Kind of a fun thing to watch.
