Who wants a refreshing dessert recipe? This is a simple, delicious pie recipe. No cooking involved. Originally titled Blueberry-Banana Pie. My friend renamed it Banerry Pie. We are cute like that. Plus the recipe makes two pies, so you can serve one, and give one to a neighbor.

Banerry Pie

• 2 single ready made graham cracker pie crusts or ready made shortbread pie crusts
• 1 8 oz. package of cream cheese
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 container cool whip
• 1 can blueberry pie filling
• 2 bananas

Fill bottom of each pie crust with banana slices. Mix cream cheese, sugar, and cool whip and spread over bananas. Top with pie filling. Chill before serving.

One little tip: usually the pie filling has more filling and less blueberries on the top. I actually spoon mine out of the can into a bowl before splitting between the two pies.

Love teeth whiteners. Love this one even more because it is so quick and easy to use.

Plus White 5 Minute Whitening System comes with a pre-whitener rinse, mouthpiece and whitening gel.

The mouthpiece has a section for the top and bottom teeth. You put the gel on both areas, and stick in your mouth for five minutes. Badda-bing, whiter teeth. Not only does it work but it is only $10. I have tried a lot of teeth whiteners. I have a custom made mouthpiece from my dentist with the whitener you can only buy from a dentist. It works great but it’s expensive. I have tried the strips and they never stick. Well they stick, but to my fingers. I really like this system because you only have to use it for five minutes. The one downside to this is that you really start foaming at the mouth when the five minutes are up. But five minutes goes by very fast!

I know the best whitener is when you have your teeth professionally whitened at the dentist. I have seen those teeth. They are beautifully white. I have just never been able to justify spending that amount of money.I’m saving for plastic surgery. That I can justify. So, save your pennies for the big stuff and give this a try for your pearly whites.

It’s been hotter’n a goat’s butt in a pepper patch. It’s so dry the trees are bribing the dogs. It’s hotter’n hades.  It’s so hot you could fry an egg on the sidewalk. It’s HOT, okay?

Here’s a great product to immediately cool you down.  Citrus Ice Cool Off Towelettes. These towelettes come individually packaged so you can keep some in your car, in your gym bag, suitcase, golf bag, backpack, purse, or pocket. Just don’t leave your cool air-conditioned house without these. We have had over 20 days of 100 degree temperatures in a row in Texas. And it’s not even August yet. These towelettes immediately cool you down.

Get these quick.  You’ll be as happy as a tick on a fat dog.

One of my favorite stores is Z Gallerie.  I could wander around that place for hours, go back the next day and see stuff I missed the day before. Their website is just as enchanting as the store.

I love this beverage dispenser. If I had big gatherings I would definitely own this because of the ability to have three different beverages in one container. I don’t have big gatherings, so I need you to buy this and have me over. I think a great combo would be sangria, margarita, and mint julep. But it’s your party. . .

Here’s another unique beverage dispenser that has a separate section for ice. You can add fruit and make it look all decorative and fancy.  It would be great for a smaller gathering. Which of course, I don’t have. So again, buy it and invite me over.

Z Gallerie has beautiful frames that are works of art. I have some of them, and have given them as gifts.

Listen, they have everything. Furniture, bedding, accessories, lamps, mirrors, art, and rugs.  If you are looking for it, they’ve got it. If you have a store in your area, definitely check it out. If not, on-line shopping is always fun. It is for me anyway.
