Make Your Own Soda

The dangers of high fructose corn syrup as well as aspartame are well documented. Blue Sky soda is healthier but expensive. So if you still enjoy soda (like I do), what are your options?

Make your own. The equipment is very basic and the key is choosing your extract. While there are many sites to get the goods, I use Leeners. It's a one stop shop for making all sorts of stuff - beer, wine, mead, cheese, yogurt, ice cream, even mustard and hot sauce. 

Save Big Money When Buying A House

The U.S. title-insurance industry faces increasing pressure from regulators to justify the fees charged to consumers for ensuring they have clear ownership of their homes, Title insurance can range from several hundred to several thousand dollars!

So here is what you do. Early in the process of buying a home or refinancing, let your real-estate agent and lender know you will select your own title insurer. Research title-insurance costs online and check whether there are fees on top of the premium (in many states, consumers pay separate fees to the agents for that research, on top of the premiums).
