Next to Newsletter -Monday, July 19, 2010


What's new? Where do I start? We've gotten in teen fashions (Abercrombie, Hollister, Aeropostle...you get the drift), plus sizes, LOTS of shoes, back-to-school duds and much more! We're putting out fall items as fast as we can and there's still a great selection of summer stuff...we have it all!



WISH LIST


Swim wear (especially for boys and men)
Costume Jewelry

Let's do the Wild Card Sale this week...you remember how it works: we have cards labeled with different 30% off departments-ladies' tops, infantwear, dresses, menswear...you get the idea.
One card even wins you 30% off of your entire purchase.


Columns!


My husband, Arthur, and I each write twice-a-month columns for The Times here in Gainesville. His deal with computing and technology issues. Mine deal with whatever strikes my fancy.

His latest was published on July 10th. Click

I took a break from writing last week. My next column will run on July 23.
In the meantime, you can click here to see a piece I wrote in 2008 about asinine product warnings.



SCAM WARNING



The "truth" about a new Facebook campaign purporting to reveal the "truth" about Coca Cola is this: it's a scam designed to steal your personal information. The digital security firm Sophos exposed the scam- click here to see what they found out.

Recipe of the Week

This week's recipe comes from Joanne Phelps, always a source for inspired cooking ideas. Here's a great appetizer that's as tasty as it its easy:

Spinach Crescents


1 tbsp. slivered almonds
1- 10 oz. pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. finely chopped onion
2 tsp. olive oil
1 pkg. refrigerated crescent rolls
sesame seeds (optional)

In a food processor, blend almonds until finely ground. add spinach, cheese, onions and oil. Blend until a paste forms. Unroll and separate crescent rolls into triangles. Spread each triangle with spinach mix. Roll up. Place, point down, in an ungreased baking sheet. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 375 degrees for 13 minutes.
