HDMI switches. What are they you ask? The HDMI Switcher allows access to multiple HDMI devices, such as DVD players and Satellite set-top boxes to one HDMI display.

No more hassles of manually plugging in different HDMI connectors to view different HDMI sources. – Easy switching of multiple HDMI sources(e.g. DVD, cable/satellite receiver) using remote control or the switch button on the switcher. – Individual LED Display of video source channels. – Supports 480i, 480p, 720i, 720p, 1080i and 1080p resolution. – Maintains highest HDMI single link video resolution. – Supports DDWG standard for HDMI compliant monitors. – HDCP Compliant. – Low cost solution for home theater integration. – Plug-and-play. No software installation. Installs in seconds.

I love watching Rachel Ray, whether it be her 30 minute meals or her hour long talk show. I love learning new recipes from her. I have been admiring some of her designer jewelry she has been wearing lately. So now when ever I am out and about, I look to see if I can find similar pieces that I can afford.

I totally "stole" this from Tina's blog and will be making these this weekend.

Confectioners sugar and or Cinnamon sugar mixture
Mix 1st 5 ingredients, drop spoonfuls in deep fryer, turn over as they brown. Scoop out and dab with paper towel, coat well in sugar. ENJOY!
*I personally added a bit of cinnamon in the batter and a bit more flour, these were a big hit!*

Most Medicare Advantage Plans are either HMOs, PPOs, or Private-Fee-for-Service (PFFS), which are all good, as I am familiar with HMO's. I like that the premiums are low. I know my inlaws talk about their health insurance all the time. When the Medicare Part D came out, it was all so confusing. I think we got everything all figured out for them so they could get their prescriptions
