I am always looking for easy time saving recipes. This one is fun for kids and adults, a great finish to your backyard barbeque!

You can prepare this ahead and store in your freezer up to one hour.  The tortilla absorbs the moisture from the caramel sauce and ice cream and makes for a fun dessert presentation. Roll into a cone shape.

¼ cup caramel sauce

2 cups vanilla Swiss almond ice cream

½ cup chopped toffee

Four 8-inch flour tortillas

Divide the sauce among the tortillas and spread evenly over each tortilla, leaving at least a 1-inch border around the edge. Sprinkle with the toffee. Divide the ice cream among the tortillas and wrap.  Serves 4

Walking through the grocery store in today’s world can be difficult for seniors.  Grocery stores are super size, pushing a grocery cart or carrying a shopping basket takes strength some seniors don’t have. Another issue many seniors confront is some only get paid once a month, meaning meal planning has to be well thought out. 

It’s About Time is here to help, we will work with the individual to plan the weekly food/household supply needs, do the shopping and put away items.  It’s About Time offers weekly or bi-weekly grocery delivery service at a discounted rate for seniors.

If you know of a senior neighbor in need of assistance or have a long distance family member that could use a helping hand, give us a call for more information.  We make life a little easier.

Shopping at a farmer's market means that you will get the best, freshest produce available, while at the same time you are supporting small local farmers.

Locally grown food is generally more nutritious. It tends to be less expensive because there are fewer shipping costs involved.  Buying food locally supports your local economy.  Buying food locally promotes eating seasonally, which makes food shopping less expensive.

To Do List

• Leave lights on a timer in various locations in your home.
• Have your lawn mowed if you will be away for an extended period.
• Don’t leave keys in hiding places outdoors.
• Don’t leave information on your answering machine that you are not home.
• Shut off your water to prevent water damage. 
• Unplug all major appliances, DVD players, televisions, computers, printers the coffee pot and microwave.  Why not save a little on your energy bill when you’re away? 
• Make a circuit of your home to check that all windows and doors are secure and locked. This may sound obvious but quite often in the rush to get out the door this can be overlooked.

Some debate as to leaving curtains open or closed.  Some say that if you close all curtains it sends a message you at not at home.  Others say that leaving them open makes it looks like you are at home.  The compromise is to leave upstairs curtains open and shut the first floor curtains.  Removing expensive items from view is a smart idea as well.

Next to making your home difficult to break in, your best burglary defense is to hire a house sitter.  Consider hiring a house sitter if you will be away for more than a week.  They can water your plants, bring in your mail and do an overall check on your home to give you peace of mind.  House sitters can stock your refrigerator with your favorite foods upon your return saving you a trip to the grocery store. In case of problems, leave a contact phone number for a nearby family member, a close neighbor or your house sitter. 

Have a safe trip!
