Christmas Cheer

Don't stress the holidays - If the tree doesn't get trimmed or extra cookies don't get baked, does it really matter?

Take time to enjoy what's important and the rest will take care of itself.

Question of the Week - College Football

If lower football divisions can have playoffs, why can't the BCS?

And the argument about them not making as much money is insane. It could add games to the current system and they could still bowls for the teams that didn't make it into the play-off.

So what's the really reason for them not having a playoff?

Just wondering,

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 heaping tablespoon dried dill

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Place the crackers in a large sealable freezer container. In a bowl, mix the oil, salad dressing mix, dill, garlic powder, and celery salt. Pour this mixture over the crackers. Cover the container and invert to coat all the crackers with the seasoning.



Refrigerate for at least 24 hours, turning the container every so often to keep the crackers coated. Let the mixture come to room temperature before serving. Store in the covered container in the refrigerator.
