Someone else's cooking always tastes so good!<br />
<br />
Not that I can't cook, mind you. It's just that I work in the restaurant industry, currently as a cook, so the last thing I want to do after work is cook!<br />
<br />
My roommate Stephanie has been gardening and her zucchini plants are quite productive. Last week we feasted on her zucchini lasagna. It was fabulous!<br />
<br />
However, she still has plenty more zucchinis where those came from.<br />
<br />
The other day a friend shared a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/abitosunshine/posts/10224566550050469?__tn__=-R" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Zucchini Bites recipe on Facebook</a> and I had to share it with Stephanie. "Hmmm," she said. "I have everything I need to make this."<br />
<br />
Tonight when I came in from work I was greeted by Stephanie and Eric finishing up dinner, with leftovers for me, yippee! Stephanie had used her homegrown zucchinis to try out the recipe. Her Zucchini Bites were delicious! And healthy. And best of all ... <i>I didn't have to cook them</i>!<br />
<br />

This April you can earn large bonuses when you sign up as my referral on Swagbucks. And so can I!<br />
<br />
Swagbucks is a rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you're probably doing online already, like searching the web, watching videos, shopping, discovering deals, and taking surveys. Then you take those points and exchange them for gift cards to places like Amazon, Target, or my favorite -- PayPal cash.<br />
<br />
When you sign up through me this month, you can earn a 300 SB bonus! Here's how:<br />
<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Sign up <a href="https://www.swagbucks.com/?cmd=sb-trk&t0=blgTrk&t1=1910240&t2=853" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">USING THIS LINK</a>.</li>
<li>Earn 300 SB total before May 1st, 2019. You'll get a 300 SB bonus for it! </li>
<li>That's it. It's super easy, and Swagbucks is for real.</li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
I have used Swagbucks myself for years, and I spend my earnings on things I want for me or my dog or as additional income to help pay the bills.<br />
<br />
When you sign up with my referral link, do take a moment to add the SwagButton to your browser extension. When you do, I earn an extra bonus of 100 SB points. Thank you!<br />
<br />

Swagbucks is for real. I use it myself and as a member of Swagbucks for a few years, I've earned 204,956 SB so far! I redeem my SB reward points for PayPal Cash, so that's about $2,049! I have spent this extra income on dog food, dog toys, books, work shoes, and bills when times get tough.<br />

With part of my Swagbucks earnings last month I designed and bought myself a lumbar pillow with a picture of my dog Valentino upon it.<br />

Swago is just like bingo. You fill out squares as you earn points on the digital rewards site for doing things you already do online. If you're thinking of trying Swagbucks, this is a great chance to learn all about how the site works and earn bonus points while doing it, meaning you can get more gift cards faster.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Swagbucks Swago Board Tips </h3>
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Each square on your Swago Board will contain an action item to complete. They can be anything from getting a search win, completing a survey, or just visiting one of our popular stores! </li>
<li>Once you complete the action item in a particular square the square will change color signifying the action item is complete. </li>
<li>You have until 12pm PT/3pm ET on Monday, September 17th to mark off as many squares as possible so use your time wisely. </li>
<li>Be mindful of the patterns and their corresponding bonuses located on the right of your Swago Board. The patterns will vary in difficulty and bonus value. Once you’ve achieved a pattern, the corresponding “Submit” button will light up. You can have multiple patterns available for submission, however, you can only submit ONE pattern so choose wisely. </li>
<li>Each activity you successfully complete on your Swago Board will give you anywhere from 1-20 spins on the Spin & Win Wheel. PLUS, when you submit your board for a bonus you'll get additional spins. The number of spins will depend on the pattern you complete. The wheel has all sorts of great prizes that you can win, and each spin is a winner!</li>
<li>The Spin & Win Wheel will be available all throughout Swago and you have until 11:59pm PT on Monday, September 17th to use all your spins. </li>
<li>Fill up your board and then submit your pattern to get even more points - if you can fill in the whole board, you get a 500 SB bonus, which is enough for a $5 gift card from the retailer of your choice. </li>
</ul>

Swagbucks is a rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you're probably doing online already: searching the web, watching videos, shopping, discovering deals, and taking surveys. Then you take those points and exchange them for gift cards to places like Amazon, Target, or PayPal cash. <br />
<br />
When you sign up through me in August, you can earn a 300 SB bonus!<br />
<br />
<h3>
How To Earn Your 300 SB Bonus </h3>
<br />
<ol>
<li>1. Sign up to the Swagbucks rewards site <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/?cmd=sb-trk&t0=blgTrk&t1=1910240&t2=827" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">USING THIS LINK</a> </li>
<li>2. Earn 300 SB total before September 1st, 2018. You'll get a 300 SB bonus for it!</li>
<li>3. That's all folks! </li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
Yes! It's as easy as 1-2-3!<br />
<br />
Swagbucks is for real. I have used it myself for years now to earn PayPal cash which I use as mad money for myself and my dog Valentino. Read about my recent book purchases <a href="https://abitosunshine.blogspot.com/2018/07/sign-up-for-swagbucks-in-july.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>. (Made possible with my Swagbucks earnings, of course!)<br />
<br />
In July I redeemed my SB points twice, each time for $25! I plan to purchase Valentino a new dog harness. I just haven't figured out which one yet! As soon as I do, I'll share it with you!<br />

It's super easy, and Swagbucks is for real. I've used it myself for years, earning myself additional monthly income. This affords me the opportunity to buy a treat for myself or my dog every now and again.<br />
<br />
I redeemed enough SB points for $25 in PayPal Cash on June 29th. With that, I purchased two books for my reading pleasure:<br />

<br />
The digital rewards site Swagbucks is offering big payouts on their July Swago Board, which runs from July 9th at 9am PT through July 16th at 12pm PT!<br />

<br />
Swago is just like bingo, but in this case you fill out squares as you earn points on their site for doing things you already do online. If you're thinking of trying Swagbucks, this is a great chance to learn all about how the site works and earn bonus points while doing it, meaning you can get more gift cards faster.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h3>
SWAGO Tips </h3>
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Each square on your Swago Board will contain an action item to complete. They can be anything from getting a search win, completing a survey, or just visiting one of our popular stores! </li>
<li>Once you complete the action item in a particular square the square will change color signifying the action item is complete. </li>
<li>You have until 12pm PT/3pm ET on Monday, July 16th to mark off as many squares as possible so use your time wisely. </li>
<li>Be mindful of the patterns and their corresponding bonuses located on the right of your Swago Board. Patterns vary in difficulty and bonus value. Once you’ve achieved a pattern, the corresponding “Submit” button will light up. You can have multiple patterns available for submission, however, you can only submit ONE pattern so choose wisely.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<h3>
Spin & Win Wheel </h3>
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Each activity you successfully complete on your Swago Board will give you anywhere from 1-20 spins on the Spin & Win Wheel.</li>
<li>PLUS, when you submit your board for a bonus you'll get additional spins. The number of spins will depend on the pattern you complete. The wheel has all sorts of great prizes that you can win, and each spin is a winner!</li>
<li>The Spin & Win Wheel will be available all throughout Swago and you have until 11:59pm PT on Monday, July 16th to use all your spins. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
Fill up your board and then submit your pattern to get even more points - if you can fill in the whole board, you get a 500 SB bonus, which is enough for a $5 gift card from the retailer of your choice!<br />

I've used Swagbucks myself for years, generally earning anywhere from $25 to $100 per month in PayPal cash. Sometimes I use my earnings for treats and toys for <a href="https://www.dogpawsitivetidbits.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">my dog Valentino</a>. Other times I purchase things for me: clothes, books, electronics, and such. And there are times when my online earnings help pay the bills. This past month or so every extra dollar I earned, online and off, went towards vet bills for my dog's surgery.<br />

<h3>
Happy Birthday Swagbucks</h3>
<br />
In celebration of Swagbucks's 10th Birthday, they're going to broadcast 4 shows throughout the day and give away at least $10,000! It will likely be more since the more people who sign-up via SwagIQ prior to each game, the bigger the grand prize!<br />
<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>1st Game Show: 1:00 PM Eastern Time/10:00 AM Pacific Time. Grand Prize: at least $1500. </li>
<li>2nd Game Show: 4:00 PM Eastern Time/1:00 PM Pacific Time. Grand Prize: at least $2000. </li>
<li>3rd Game Show: 7:00 PM Eastern Time/4:00 PM Pacific Time. Grand Prize: at least $2500 </li>
<li>4th Game Show: 10:00 PM Eastern Time/7:00 PM Pacific Time. Grand Prize: at least $4000 </li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
To play SwagIQ, <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/?cmd=sb-trk&t0=blgTrk&t1=1910240&t2=812&t3=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.swagbucks.com%2Foffer%3Foid%3D9289%26placementname%3DInfluencers" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">download the app to your iPhone and Android today</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
It's really easy to play, too:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>The game show host will ask a series of multiple-choice trivia questions. You’ll have 10 seconds to answer each one. Get it right; you get SB and move on. Answer them all correctly and you can win a grand prize! If more than one player wins, the winners split the grand prize. </li>
<li>Get it wrong; still play along. Some questions have a bonus SB award attached to them. If you answer those questions correctly, you get those SB, even if you’re out of the running for the big money. And, if you’re in a groove but miss a question, you’ll have the option to rejoin a game by redeeming a few SB. When you get to the end of the game, you can claim all of the SB that you've earned. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
You can use all the SB points you earn playing SwagIQ to get PayPal cash or gift cards to places like Amazon, Target, Starbucks, and more!<br />
<br />
SwagIQ is the newest way to earn through the Swagbucks rewards program. There are, of course, numerous ways for members to earn. <a href="https://abitosunshine.blogspot.com/2018/02/boost-your-budget-with-swagbucks.html" target="_blank">See how I spent my February SB points right here</a>!<br />

<br />
February is the month of love so I am here to share my love of earning with Swagbucks. If you haven't tried Swagbucks before, you can get a bonus $3 for signing up as my referral this month.<br />
<br />
Swagbucks is a rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you're probably doing online already: like searching, watching videos, discovering deals, and taking surveys. Then you take those points and exchange them for gift cards to places like Amazon, Starbucks, Walmart, Target, or PayPal cash (my personal choice).<br />
<br />
When you sign up through me this month, you can earn a $3 bonus! Here's how:<br />
<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/?cmd=sb-trk&t0=blgTrk&t1=1910240&t2=808" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sign up using this link</a>! </li>
<li>Earn 300 SB total before 3/1/18. You'll get a $3 (300 SB) bonus for it! </li>
<li>If you want even more bonuses, you'll get a $10 (1000 SB rebate) bonus for making your first shop purchase! That's in addition to the SB you earn for every dollar you spend. </li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
That's it. It's super easy and Swagbucks is for real. I use it myself and I've earned my fair share of SB points over the years.<br />
<br />
I redeemed 5,000 SB for $50 in PayPal cash on February 10th. That money comes in mighty handy since I missed a lot of work in January due to a winter virus that is still hanging on. I also still have my eye on a HP all-in-one printer-scanner-copier.<br />

Swagbucks, the online rewards site, is hosting another round of Shopping Swago! What is SWAGO you ask? It's a bingo-inspired promotion run by Swagbucks, a website that rewards you with points (called SB) for completing everyday online activities. You can redeem those SB for free gift cards. If you've never used Swagbucks, participating in SWAGO is a great introduction to the site and an easy way to earn a good amount of points quickly. <br />
<br />

Here’s what you need to know to get your 300 SB ($3) Bonus (<i>and don’t worry, you don’t have to make a purchase to complete a pattern</i>):<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Shop Swago will begin on Monday, December 18th at 9am PT/12pm ET, make sure you hit “Join” otherwise you won’t get credit for completing the action items. Each square on your Swago Board will contain an action item to complete.</li>
<li>Once you complete the action item in a particular square the square will change color signifying the action item is complete.</li>
<li>You have a limited amount of time to mark off as many squares as possible so use your time wisely.</li>
<li>Be mindful of the patterns and their corresponding bonuses located on the right of your Swago Board. The patterns will vary in difficulty and bonus value - up to 300 SB - enough for your first $3 gift card.</li>
<li>Once you’ve achieved a pattern the corresponding “Submit” button will light up. You can have multiple patterns available for submission, however, you can only submit ONE pattern so choose wisely.</li>
<li>The game ends Friday, December 22nd at 12pm PDT/3pm EDT. So make sure to hit “Submit” on the pattern you wish to submit. If you don’t hit “Submit” before the game ends you won’t receive your SB bonus. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />

December Swago with Spin & Win on the digital rewards site runs now through Monday, December 11th! Swago is just like bingo, but in this case you're filling out squares as you earn points on their site for doing things you already do online.<br />
<br />
If you're ready to try Swagbucks, this is a great chance to learn how the site works and earn bonus points while doing it, meaning you can get your gift cards faster.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
Tips for Playing Swagbucks Swago </h2>
<br />
Each square on your Swago Board contains an action to complete. This might be a search win, completing a survey, or just visiting one of our popular stores!<br />
<br />
Once you complete the action item in a particular square the square will change color signifying the action item is complete.<br />
<br />
You have until 12pm PT/3pm ET on Monday, December 11th to mark off as many squares as possible so use your time wisely.<br />
<br />
Be mindful of the patterns and their corresponding bonuses located on the right of your Swago Board. The patterns will vary in difficulty and bonus value. Once you’ve achieved a pattern, the corresponding “Submit” button will light up.<br />
<br />
You can have multiple patterns available for submission, however, you can only submit ONE pattern so choose wisely.<br />
<br />
<h2>
<br />Spin & Win Wheel</h2>
<br />
Each activity you successfully complete on your Swago Board will give you anywhere from 1-20 spins on the Spin & Win Wheel. PLUS, when you submit your board for a bonus you'll get additional spins. The number of spins will depend on the pattern you complete. The wheel has all sorts of great prizes that you can win, and each spin is a winner!<br />
<br />
The Spin & Win Wheel will be available all throughout Swago and you have until 11:59pm PT on Monday, December 11th to use all your spins.<br />
<br />
Fill up your board and then submit your pattern to get even more points - if you can fill in the whole board, you get a 500 SB bonus, which is enough for a $5 gift card from the retailer of your choice!<br />

<br />
Now on a not-so-Wordless Wednesday I share a few images captured for you ... <b><i><span style="font-size: large;">BOO!</span></i></b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We three <a href="http://amzn.to/2zYPuPR" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">kitchen witches</a> were having a wee bit of fun making devilishly delicious pizzas and subs for our guests.<br />
<br />
But of course, there was a friendly fellow in our midst too. I guess it would be unkind of me not to share a picture including him too, though I must say he is undeserving of the inclusion as he did not even bother to dress for the occasion. <i>Oh, look, he's rather ghoulish naturally!</i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I was scheduled out the work door first and was happy to get home in time to enjoy some of the youngsters begging trick-or-treat. But first, I had to get into my own costume and walk my dog Valentino.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMjW0EfURQABhPcUwt-YkxmvXKTU-0FNJeOmgO0hkLW9g8LKUhkKZZe55ZCrwkP6-zQjPRiLUW3AgKp-FbMhbqvo1R4sYTYbMsFknGCvLXue9wiDwjmJk9WENeeZFjuCw7yrYzo42Dw7k/s1600/ruthi-valentino-halloween-2017.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="797" data-original-width="600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMjW0EfURQABhPcUwt-YkxmvXKTU-0FNJeOmgO0hkLW9g8LKUhkKZZe55ZCrwkP6-zQjPRiLUW3AgKp-FbMhbqvo1R4sYTYbMsFknGCvLXue9wiDwjmJk9WENeeZFjuCw7yrYzo42Dw7k/s640/ruthi-valentino-halloween-2017.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
While Valentino would have nothing to do with dressing up for the night, I love my costume. I designed it as part of my own fall wardrobe. And you can bet I will wear my <a href="https://www.zazzle.com/z/y3m8k?rf=238878349653501874" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Witchy Woman Sweatshirt</a> and <a href="https://www.zazzle.com/z/yg1wt?rf=238878349653501874" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">purple leggings</a> throughout fall and winter.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
My dog Valentino had the bejabbers scared out of him on Halloween night! When this hairy spider jumped up in the air so did Valentino! <i>I cannot tell a lie ... So did I!</i><br />

Yes, it is just like playing Bingo. Just perform the activity in each square on your Swago Board and watch the squares change colors just like Autumn leaves on trees!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUUxohgsmDOI435hgugiTgK6OkSSIQm57ht5yjI7ntuLJg7NL79eSwp7WH7uHBSNsBgEgYxqUi0oWSaxIwDPQE14cBhYVnV-WckCze__XhAOIe2gDivRRbYVjRRigovKTvRh4HibkxjVU/s1600/swagooctobercard759.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Play and Earn with Swagbucks Swago " border="0" data-original-height="240" data-original-width="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUUxohgsmDOI435hgugiTgK6OkSSIQm57ht5yjI7ntuLJg7NL79eSwp7WH7uHBSNsBgEgYxqUi0oWSaxIwDPQE14cBhYVnV-WckCze__XhAOIe2gDivRRbYVjRRigovKTvRh4HibkxjVU/s1600/swagooctobercard759.jpg" title="Play and Earn with Swagbucks Swago " /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
You have from Monday, October 9th at 9am PDT until 12pm PT/3pm ET on Monday, October 16th to mark off as many squares as possible so use your time wisely.<br />
<br />
Be mindful of the patterns and their corresponding bonuses located on the right of your Swago Board. The patterns will vary in difficulty and bonus value. Once you’ve achieved a pattern, the corresponding “Submit” button will light up. You can have multiple patterns available for submission, however, you can only submit ONE pattern so choose wisely.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Don't forget to yell <i>Swago Bingo!</i> when you submit your pattern for Swagbucks bonus reward points!</span><br />
<br />
Each activity you successfully complete on your Swago Board will give you anywhere from one to twenty spins on the Spin & Win Wheel. PLUS, when you submit your board for a bonus you get additional spins. The number of spins will depend on the pattern you complete. The wheel has all sorts of great prizes that you can win, and each spin is a winner!<br />
<br />
The Spin & Win Wheel will be available throughout this October Swago and you have until 11:59pm PT on Monday, October 16th to use all your spins.<br />
<br />
Complete the entire board of activities for the 500 SB, which is enough for a $5 gift card from the retailer of your choice. Or save your Swago bonus points towards a larger denomination of PayPal cash or gift card redemption.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A cat went running across the porch, down the front steps, and on down the street. Yes, that cat went scat when he heard my dog Valentino. My dog has little tolerance for the many stray cats in the neighborhood.<br />
<br />
I leashed my boy up, opened the front door, and what did I see? In the corner crouched a small squirrel, apparently hiding behind the broom on the porch. Thankfully, my dog has little interest in squirrels, this one included. Actually, he was too busy trying to find that cat!<br />
<br />
Nonetheless, I took the dog for a walk and upon our return the squirrel was gone. No more squirrel, no more cat, dog has taken care of business... Now I can return to my computer work and play for the day!<br />
<br />
When it comes to "his front porch" my dog Valentino is the best intruder alert system around. However, it does not hurt to have a security camera system in place too, for when my dog and I are out and about.<br />

Valentino found another pumpkin in a patch!</i></span><br />
<br />
My dog Valentino has a nose for the scent of pumpkin fruit on a vine. As we wander around the neighborhood on our dog walks he is quick to show me his nose knows where the good stuff grows.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Along an alleyway the dog dragged me to a patch of grass with a motley looking vine I recognized as what I thought was a dying pumpkin patch. Sure enough, there was a wee pumpkin growing in its midst.<br />
<br />
The owner of the house where Valentino discovered the pumpkin patch was in her yard. I commented to her how much my dog enjoys her pumpkins. She was rather tickled by his vegetarian-like hunting ability.<br />
<br />
The woman told me these are volunteer pumpkins. She had not planted the seeds! But she is enjoying these pumpkins too.<br />
<br />
The woman also asked me this question: "<i>Did you know that when a vine produces a pumpkin all of the plant nutrients go straight to the fruit growing on the vine and oftentimes its flowers and leaves pretty much die away</i>?"<br />
<br />
I had no idea. I learned my something new on this day!<br />
<br />
<br />
Come walk the dog with me and see a few more pumpkins we found along our way!<br />
