Great Idea from one of my clients

I received this idea from a client and thought it was a great idea worth sharing!

Put your car keys beside your bed each night when you are getting ready for bed. Why you ask? Well, if you hear someone outside your house in the middle of the night, grab your keys and set off the car alarm! What a great idea! You have an instant burglar alarm and pay no set up or maintenance fees. Tell your kids, your parents, your friends and co-workers, you never know when this will save someones life! It could even work for someone who has a heart attach or falls and can't get to a phone. Someone would surely become suspicious and call the police if it continued to go off.
Have any other suggestions for this, leave me a comment! Would love to hear what ideas you can come up with!

Gluten Free Cake

I just wanted to take the time to spotlight one of the many fabulous businesses in My Business Directory.

Cakes & Confections by Tena Heiskell 502-827-1066

Recently I find myself at restaurants asking if the French Fries are fried in a separate fryer, if I can get a hamburger with no bun, and ordering everything plain. My daughter has to avoid wheat, rye, and barley. Being Gluten free is keeping her feeling healthy. In case you didn’t know, gluten is in about everything. So we have been trying new food, experimenting with new ingredients and still most items don’t taste the greatest. October is birthday month in our family. Being new to all this we knew finding a birthday cake she could eat that everyone at the party would eat was going to be a difficult challenge. If you search “Gluten Free Birthday Cakes” you get very few website that you can order from. Most I found were plain round cakes priced $50 and higher. Tena has been making cakes for my family for years. I emailed her in hopes she had possibly heard of a gluten free cake. We were excited to find out she knew exactly what I was talking about. The birthday party was a success. Everyone loved the cake. My daughter ate seven pieces that week. It wasn’t a plain round cake, it exactly what my daughter wanted and very reasonably priced.

So for all your cake needs: birthday, weddings, special occasions or special dietary needs. Call Tena and tell her Marsha sent you.
