Don't make any of these mistakes the next time you go shopping for a watermelon at the store or market. It is watermelon season in many parts of the country. That means you should have access to locally grown watermelon. But don't assume that. Always make sure to check the sticker on the watermelon. Where are the watermelons coming from? This time of year you shouldn't be buying a watermelon that was picked in Mexico, when local options are available.

I Tried Different Cheeses for Grilled Cheese - This One Was the Best

Not all cheeses melt the same! Find out which cheese I use to make grilled cheese for my 4 kids and they all love it. When you are a father of 4, you make a lot of grilled cheese sandwiches. I have experimented with different cheeses over the years but I find that I keep going back to a certain type of cheese over and over again - Muenster cheese.

The Cleaner I Add to Every Mop Bucket

For years, I thought the mop was the most important part of cleaning my floors. What made the biggest difference was what I added to the mop bucket. Instead of buying a different floor cleaner every few months, I started making my own with ingredients I already had at home. It's simple, inexpensive, and leaves my floors looking clean without a sticky residue.

7 Supper Dishes 1970s Families Stretched to Last the Week

Through most of the 1970s, grocery prices climbed faster than they had in a generation. The sharpest jump came in 1973 and 1974, when food at home rose about 16 percent in one year and nearly 15 percent again in the next. A chuck roast went from being a Sunday treat to something you braised on Monday and ate cold in sandwiches through Wednesday. Canned tuna, dry beans, hot dogs, and whatever cut of meat was on sale became the backbone of the week's suppers, stretched with egg noodles, cornbread, or a can of cream soup.
