Special Message to Our Awesome Advertisers!

'It matters not how you get them here, just that you get them."


Recently you may have noticed a change over at Link Bug in some of the posts being displayed on our wall. I wanted to take a minute to explain. 

As most of  you are aware, the Work at Home Entrepreneur Community on Facebook is a tight-knit one. You see the same fans on page after page. We need to bring in NEW fans too! People that are not normally part of this community. By introducing your company to as many people as possible you have the potential to grow more recognition!  More sales!  More revenue! 



I have always been a firm believer in laughter.  Laughing each day is healthy for everyone!
By posting silly, funny, and educational pictures and ideas I have seen a huge spurt in my fan count. I try to keep them in good taste. I see many that are not appropriate for my page and will not post them. In the past two weeks we have gained an additional 2500 fans just from sharing these types of things. Your advertising shout-outs have gone from being seen by 500 people to over 3000 a day! We have over 141,000 talking about this page! I hope by your companies being viewed by all these people that your fan counts and sales will also increase. I would appreciate any feedback you have on this. 

I will continue to make posts that bring the fans to Link Bug and will do my best to get them to your page. Once I get them there it is very helpful if you make at least one post a day to promote yourself too! 

Please remember too that we also offer Advertising on our Web page http://www.linkbug.net/ should you wish to expand your advertising with us to an even larger audience. I will be utilizing the web page even more in the future.  You can find more information regarding the web page ads here; https://www.facebook.com/notes/link-bug/link-bugnet-store-directory/286026244755101

Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie---Updated!

First let me explain, I am NOT a baker!  While I love to eat sweets I have never been one that can bake very well.  Lots of disasters have come out of my kitchen!  It's funny the ideas you see on the internet that prompt you to do things you don't normally do!  For instance this Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie.  It started with a picture of a pie crust!


  Believe me if I can make this anyone can do it!

The only ingredients you need are:
(2) rolls of pre-made cinnamon rolls
(2) 20oz cans of  pre-made pie filling
dash of cinnamon to taste

Pre-heat oven to 350
Spray pie pan with non-stick spray

First I took the pre made cinnamon rolls and put them (two at a time) in between two sheets of wax paper and rolled them about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. (You can choose to slice the rolls in half if you are looking to make a more cinnamon tasting pie)I then arranged them in the pie pan "pinching" the edges together so as to not leave holes. 

Bake in oven for about 10 mins 

Remove pie crust from oven let cool for a few minutes.
Add your two cans of pre made pie filling and sprinkle with a dash or two of cinnamon


In this case for the top of the pie I took the other roll of pre made cinnamon rolls and rolled them out to make a top crust. (roll them in between two sheets of was paper as before abut 1/8 to 1/14 thick)
Remove one of the sheets of wax paper then turn over on top of your already filled pie. Remove the other sheet of was paper and cut the top crust to fit. 
You could also just make a lattice top or a "dutch apple" type topping. 


I cut four small "slices" in the top of the pie to allow it to get air.
(I am not sure why you are supposed to do this but i remember seeing my Mother do it all the time lol )

Bake in the oven at 350 for 38-35mins
Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Use the icing that came with your pre made rolls to decorate the top of your pie.

Serve with ice-cream, whip cream or just like it came out from the oven. 

Easy and and quick to make!

But most of all it is very good!! 


When I was shopping in the store for the items for this I noticed that the pre made cinnamon rolls also now come in caramel and orange flavors. They also have them in "flaky" style if you prefer a flakier crust. It appears that there are many variations you can use for this simple recipe! 
Enjoy!

Update:  I made one with Cherry Pie Filling!  It was just as good as the Apple!  I really think there is no end to the possibilities with this "crust". If you try a different one let us know!

Many things change



It has been a long time since I have had the time to use this blog. Many things have changes in my life the most important being that my Mom lost her battle with liver disease on May 22, 2012. It has been extremely hard on me coming to grips with losing her. I have good days when I remember the laughs and smiles we shared. But then the "other" days come when I just want to hear her voice. Those are the days filled with tears.


During the course of her illness there were days when I did was complain how she was driving me nuts, but now....now I am grateful for the time she and I spent together.  We did have a lot of great times. She was a very special woman that was liked and loved wherever she went. Many miss her. Me most of all. 


I have closed my business. I find that I no longer want to do this line of work anymore. I have been in the medical billing business for over 20 years now. I can do it with my eyes closed. But it no longer provides a challenge for me. The changes within the government make it almost impossible for the healthcare industry to continue as it has in the past. 


Since my mother's passing, I have found myself turning to food for comfort. Not a good idea. I have put on over 20lbs in two months!  I am uncomfortable in my own skin with this added weight. I have however started to do something about it. The first thing being cutting out all the diet coke and drinking more water. I don't know if I am the only one that feels this way but I don't like to drink plain water! So it has been quite a chore but I am making a concentrated effort to add a bottle a day.  And I have started taking ACE (a natural Appetite Control & Energy Supplement)

I don't know where my life is headed at this moment but it is changing. My new journey has begun.....

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.
Live the life you have imagined.

A Well Being Every BODY's Shake Review


63.1% of adults in the U.S. are becoming overweight or obese, exercising less, and eating unhealthy foods. 

I unfortunately have fallen in this category for most of my life. With today's busy lifestyle I find it hard to maintain a sensible eating pattern and more often than not I hardly pay attention to what I am eating. And yes it puts on the pounds quickly and easily.


I recently was offered the chance to try out and do a review on 
A Well Being's New Meal Replacement  


Not being a very big fan of anything chocolate (yes I know I am strange) I chose to review the Vanilla flavor. I mixed it up with several different fruits (fresh strawberries,mango, bananas) and my favorite coffee!  there really is no end to the possibilities that you can choose to add to these shakes to make them perfect for you.  Keep in mind that added the fresh fruits adds a bit to your calorie intake for the day. But I must admit my favorite mix of all was making it with coffee and ice. Like a smoothie. I was very surprised that at only 120 calories per shake the Every BODY's Protein Shake is a great way to lose some weight and still feel full.  Not making any other changes to my normal daily routine, I replaced my lunch with these everyday for a week and lost a total of 7lbs! I continued the next week using them as a breakfast replacement and lost another 5lbs!  That's a total of 12lbs just by using the Every BODY's Protein Shake for one of my meals each day!

Over at A Well Being you will find great customer service, fast shipping and a variety of products to help YOU make yourself a better YOU!  I have used several of their products and have yet to be disappointed!

 I highly recommend that you give them a try!
