Mama's Little Loves

Today is another backwards Works-For-Me-Wednesday. I missed the last one so here is the question I wanted to ask. I have over 1000 pics...at least...and would like to know where the best (and also frugal, if possible?) place would be to get them printed. I have tried both online and in store and like how they both turn out. I have just slacked off and not had them printed in...well, a really long time. Also, if there is a place that has a really good upload tool that doesn't take a day and a half to upload all of the pics, that would be even better. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My tip for today is a recipe for Taco Soup. My sister-in-law Esther made this for me when I had my first baby and it was the (and I still think is) the best soup ever. You can either cook it on the stove or in a crockpot on warm.

Ingredients:
1. 1 lb. of hamburger or turkey burger
2. 1 can of corn, undrained (15 oz)
3. 1 can of stewed tomatoes, undrained (15 oz)
4. 1 can diced tomatoes, undrained (I use two because I love these kind of tomatoes) (15 oz)
5. 1 can tomato sauce (15 oz)
6. 1 can of kidney beans, drained and rinsed (15 oz)
7. 1 pkg taco seasoning
8. 2 cups water (You can add more if you don't like it too thick)
9. Shredded Cheese
10. Frito chips
11. sour cream

Brown your hamburger and drain. Throw everything into a pan and bring to a boil or into your crock pot and turn on low. This soup is sooo good. You can add or subtract from the ingredients above and it will still be delicious. Pour some into a bowl and put a little shredded cheese, then Frito chips, then sour cream on top. My mouth is seriously watering just thinking about it. I think I will have to make this tonight for dinner. :) I probably make this once a week and it never gets old.

This is what works for me. For more great tips go to Rocks in My Dryer.

FREE STUFF!! Gotta love free stuff right? Here are some links to free stuff. Just fill out the forms and you will be getting your stuff in the mail shortly after--generally 3-6 weeks, although sometimes it is sooner. All of these I have already gotten, so they are tried and true.

http://www.startsampling.com/sm/22707/captureAddress.iphtml?item=22707&source= Pantene shampoo and conditioner. This one is from Walmart. If you ever find one from Walmart, they are awesome about sending free samples. I have got every one that I signed up from them for.

http://walmart.triaddigital.com/Free-Samples.aspx Walmart's free samples home page. Check if out and see if there is anything else you need.

This is what works for me. Yes, it is a little bit tedious trying to find the samples you want, but I figure whatever I sign up for and don't want, I can always try to sell it at my garage sales that I have every year. That is a very nice 100% profit. Anyway, hope there is at least one thing you like in these links. Go to Rocks in My Dryer for more great tips.
