I teach my Tupperware team a simple rule: Help enough people get what THEY want and you will get what YOU want. We share how to set goals, break them down and then create a plan of action to make that goal happen.

Add training, how to use the tools we are given to work with and it all adds up to people creating a bunch of success stories.

It's a few small steps on the path of a lifestyle of service to others.

Add in helping your local food pantry, donating your time, passing things to others via Freecycle and another 1,000 ways to give to others...it makes a significant ripple effect in our world for the positive.

Occasionally, all that goodness comes back to you.

Sunday, after church, we were going to the pancake breakfast, sponsored by the local Optimist Club. It's pretty inexpensive: kids under 5 eat free, and only $5 for adults.

What is included? All you can eat pancakes, sausage links, apple sauce and beverages like juice, milk and coffee.

As we were walking in, a couple was walking out and asked if we had bought our tickets yet. We said we hadn't, and they handed us two that they had extra...for free.

Yup. The three of us had a nice breakfast for nothing! I DID buy a bag of cookies from the bake sale for $1 - it was for the school's marketing club.

I am not saying you should do things so you get free stuff in return, simply that the more positive energy you put out there, the more that finds it's way back to you.

Karma baby - how are you going to share some today?

Cookie Exchange Parties are SO MUCH FUN - for a few simple reasons:You get together with your friends You make only ONE kind of cookie and finish your holiday baking, after swapping out You get new recipes You often have snacks or games! That being said, I do one every year - in December, about 2 weeks before Christmas. (You can read about it HERE or see a TV segment I did on it http://youtu.be/-iUR7GlAiQw ). I thought it would be fun to have a collection of 30 fun recipes to try - one a day in November - so you can be prepared for that holiday baking!

I know this sounds strange -- and yummy at the same time, LOL You need to know the family history to "get it". We are part German, part English, part Irish and part Tennessee Hillbilly. Seriously. Did you ever see that black and white movie of Gary Cooper's called Sergeant York? Yes, my family comes from the Dyer/Yorks -- same family. Some of the "family recipes" are too far out there for even me to try... But this is a pot luck favorite. SUPER Easy and SUPER Easy to make healthier. We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs
