The name defines the site. Tidbits and Stuff contains a mix of information ranging from making pancakes from scratch to obtaining a license to sell insurance. As a homemaker and former insurance broker (among many other careers), this site contains information and tips about things that have touched my life. The site has evolved from [...]

Entrepreneurship
With today’s economy, it behooves us all to become entrepreneurs. Whether we dabble with an at-home money making venture or go whole hog and create a new company, we have to become more resourceful when it comes to our financial future. Think for a moment. How many unemployed or underemployed people do you know? Job [...]

Family
I started to use a photo of a bag of mixed nuts and fruit to depict the average family but I thought better of it. We all can identify a few fruits and nuts in our own families, that’s what makes families so great. If we were all the same and sane, it would be [...]

Food
What a wonderful thing to experience. There is nothing like sitting down and thoroughly enjoying a good meal from start to finish. A good meal can brighten your day and/or set the mood for an evening. It’s unfortunate in our microwave society that food seems to have transformed itself into an on-the-run item on the [...]

Health & Beauty
I’m not an expert on beauty, but there are a few simple routines we can practice every day to enhance what we’ve got. No, we may not look like beauty queens or kings, but we can strut what we’ve got proudly. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and we’re beholding something great! In [...]

Kids Korner
This section is truly a mixed bag of nuts. When I first created the site, my kids were a lot younger and it was important for me to have a section where they could visit and play games. They’ve since grown up and technology has changed so drastically that the games here seem soothing akin [...]

My 2 Cents
When I first started this site back in 2006, it was a place where I got to share my two cents. I was new to the Internet and I enjoyed sharing my take on things. Over the years, the Internet has changed quite a bit and I’ve been busy on other projects. This section isn’t [...]

Pets
In a prior life, this section held a ton of articles about cats, dogs, birds, rats and more. Having removed most of the articles (frankly, they just weren’t so good), the site is a bit bare. I just didn’t have the heart to do away with this section entirely. As a dog owner, I figured [...]

Technology
Technology moves so fast that it’s impossible to keep up with it. Back in the old days I would’ve considered myself a wannabe techno-geek. Now a days, things have moved so fast that I think I was left in the dust. Still having a fascination with some aspects of technology, this site would not be [...]

Seasonal
As a habit I don’t write seasonal articles, but every once in a while I do. This section was created for the off chance the mood strikes to write seasonal copy.
Welcome to Tidbits & Stuff. Here you will find a bit of useful and sometimes useless information.
