I got a great article in my inbox this morning. It is from Share Save Spend and it talks about summer jobs. Even if you don’t have teens yet, it is never too early to let them begin realizing the benefits of good hard work during the summer.

It is from one of my favorite websites and I have to say that on this topic, I couldn’t have said it better myself!
My daughter was going through the canned soups today trying to find one she liked to make for her school lunch. She was a little bit bully because I told her I wouldn’t buy more chicken noodle until she ate some of the others she had picked out. Apparently, none of them sounded as good now as they had at the store. From deep inside the pantry I hear…
“Like this one, I hate this one. Could you please not buy anymore Cream of Howard soup? Can you cook with it instead? I hate it!”
I said, “Tate, read it again. I’m pretty sure it isn’t Cream of Howard.”
“Yes it is. It says so right here. Cream–of–Howard!”
“Can I see? Okay, try reading it again. The whole label.”
“New. England. Cream of Howard.”
We sounded it out.
“C-l-aaam Chow-der. Clam Chowder? I LOVE Clam Chowder!”
