Now that I am counting calories, I am more determined to get a broiler. Roasted chicken will be my best friend these days, minus the skin. The broiler is actually cheap, if you think about it, but something more important always comes up that I end up not buying it.

We are going to be serious in saving up again. I need a better idea for saving money. It needs to multiply rapidly! We were advised to try and buy gold coins as an investment, it is as good as cash and has never depreciated. I would need to discuss this with the husband. It might be an idea worth pursuing. Gold traditionally moves adversely to the dollar: when the dollar declines, gold goes up and vice versa. Gold is still holding up nicely to other commodities such as oil and also other metals such as palladium.
