We will be closed on New Year's Day. This is the last day for the end of the year specials . The year 2008 has come and gone. I still remember when the 2000's were approaching and everyone was afraid of Y2K. Now, we're getting ready for our last year in the aughts. Before we get there, a look at my 2008: January: First hospital visit. I begin playing Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy which was a Christmas present from my in-laws. (The game rocks!) I put up my TBR li...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Marshmallow, Pumpkin, Candy Cane, and Egg Nog. Cone Day! All cones on sale for only $2.08 (regularly $2.77). There are only two more days left on the bonus specials that were posted on Sunday. Remember that our hours are 10 AM to 6 PM today and 10 AM to 4 PM tomorrow. I'm getting ready to finish the breakdown of Christmas over the next two days, so the store should be back to its normal setup by the weekend. We remain pretty well stocked on most items; however, there are a few items that we are running low on or are no longer in stock. Most of these items will be back in by the end of the second week in January. The crazy thing about the holidays is that they always play havoc with the shipping. One item of note is the Western Bagel shipment. We will not receive one this week. But, we should have enough for those of you who come in early. Next week, we will back to the regular Thursday deliveries. The year is coming to a clo...

All Sierra deLite (and Cran deLite) bars are on sale today for only $3.25 (regularly $4.50/limited to quantity on hand). I'm leaving the Red Kettle up for another three days. I'll take it down on January 1st. I've been a little surprised to see that the only action on it has come from my family. However, there is still a chance to contribute and have it count towards this years taxes. Speaking of this years taxes, the first batch of software bundles came out this week encouraging people to by either TurboTax or TaxCut. It never ceases to amaze me what you can get for free if you're willing to put up money for the 6 to 8 weeks that it takes to get the rebates. For the last few years, I've gotten all of my anti-virus software free by buying it in conjunction with my tax software. I've also gotten Quicken and Microsoft Money for free too, but ...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Marshmallow, Pumpkin, Candy Cane, and Egg Nog. Gnu Bar Special! Buy 3 cases of Gnu Flavor and Fiber bars and get a free 15 dollar yogurt card. After a relatively busy holiday season, we're into the new schedule at the store. This was one of the big changes that I mentioned in a blog entry at the beginning of November. The only thing not mentioned in that blog entry, because I requested that it wait until after the holidays, is that I will leave the Sugarless deLite after the start of the new year. We've been working on the transition for the last few months. There is never really a good time to leave a store that you've worked at for 10 1/2 years, but I figured the start of a new year was as good as any. It has been my pleasure and honor to work for Rick and Stacey over this last decade. Truly, you cannot find nicer people to work for and work with. It will be like leaving my family in a way. Although, I might pop in...

I figure that some people might have the day off today and therefore have a little extra time on their hands.

Thanks to Doctor PC who fixed it at a very reasonable price. If you ever need a computer fixed, I'd certainly recommend Doctor PC in Richardson vs. the big boys at a chain store. He fixed it for about a 1/3 of the cost that the others wanted to charge. If you need his services, his number is 972.235.DRPC (3772).

I'm about half way ...

In addition to the slight ice that we got on Monday/Tuesday, we also had our main computer go down. And, it went down hard. A hard drive failure made for a little more work than I planned. After a long evening, I realized that it might be beyond my level of expertise. While I'm going to give it another attempt, it looks like we might be upgrading our computer at the store. Thankfully, there is a backup laptop that we were able to get all of the necessary programs onto yesterday. So, it was a ...

Your Home Says That You Feel Unsettled and Free You come across as somewhat intellectual. You can be quite insightful at times. Your hygiene is passable, but you may be hiding some dirty secrets. You are a very domestic person. You enjoy decorating, cooking, and making things homey. You are not a nurturing person by nature, but you can easily take care of someone you truly love. You don't feel settled in your life yet. You are scrambling to figure things out. You are a very self sufficien...

The first two round of White Elephant went very well. We managed to get a gift at the office party on Saturday night for the Sunday School party on Sunday night. Since we already had a gift ready, it gave us two entr...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Pumpkin, Toffee Coffee, Peach, and Very Berry. Chocolite Bars: Buy 3 Cases (48 bars), get a free 15 dollar yogurt card. Two weekends left for your holiday shopping. One of our customers just asked us if it would be OK to pick the chocolates and other snacks up now or if she should wait. The answer is now if you want to make sure that we have it. Unless you are planning on giving bakery items for Christmas, the other gifts will all be fresh and good for Christmas. I looked last night at new speakers for our computer at home. Boy, does this get confusing. After three hours of research, I came to the conclusion that if you're not looking to spend a lot of money, you're going to end up on the short side of sound on either the high, mid, or low range depending on the set. The good news is that many of the middle priced speakers ($50 to $100) actually seem to get pretty good reviews despite their reported shortcomings. Since w...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Pumpkin, Toffee Coffee, Peach, and Very Berry.

Christmas Order Form: (click to enlarge) After going to bed at a ridiculously early time last night, I awoke with my wife to cook her breakfast this morning. The only real problem with waking up at 6 AM is that I don't have to get ready for work until around 9:20. Erica left for work at 6:40 and, left with 2 hours to burn, I decided to play a video game. (This particular game is one of the main reasons that I'm so far behind on my TBR list.) I like playing video games. I love to play them in the evening after a day of wor...

If you're a member of the Yogurt Club, you can come in and get a small yogurt for $1.27 when you use your club card. If you don't have a club card, ask us how to join and start saving today. All geared up for trivia last night, I was a little disappointed upon my arrival at the Flying Saucer to see that the evening's games had been canceled. Thankfully, my friends managed to make it a worthwhile outing. One thing that I almost always enjoy about going out with my friends is the quick wit and banter that takes place. It's a relaxing way to spend a cold evening. Before the trip to the non-trivia evening, my wife and I watched the first episode of Doctor Who Season 4. It looks like this season is going to have a little more intrigue in it. If we time it right with Netflix, we should be able to get through the whole season by next weekend. I'm lookin...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Toffee Coffee, Caramel, Peach, and Very Berry. Cone Day! All cones are only $2.08 today (regularly $2.77).

If you've clicked on the kettle to the right and were daunted by the size amounts, pick the other option. Any amount helps us get to the goal. So pick other and chip in 10, 5, or even 1 to help get the kettle filled. Thanks! One of the things that bothers me the most about Dallas is the weather. Most of t...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Toffee Coffee, Caramel, Peach, and New York Cheesecake. Shake Day! All shakes are on sale today for $3.69 when you ask for the special (regularly priced at $4.62). If you need to send something to a loved one for the holidays, start thinking about it this week. We're calling our safe send-by-date December the 15th. This is the last date that you can send a package to any of the lower 48 and have it there on time with UPS Ground shipping. If you're sending to Texas or one of the neighboring states, then you can always ship later, but it is better to do it early. I should begin this rant by saying that, ultimately, this one is my fault. But, it won't stop me from voicing my opinion on the matter. At issue is the governments program to hand out $40 coupons to purchase converter boxes for analog TV sets. First, I think that it is ridiculous that the government is paying a portion of this; however, I'm not going to tu...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, French Vanilla, Butterscotch, Peach, and New York Cheesecake. Yogurt Special! Buy one, get one free from 6 PM to 8 PM (limit one per customer, excludes XL.) We decided a few weeks ago to go with a standard used television set. While this means that we'll have to pick up a converter box for the switch over next year, the price on a used set was just too good to pass up. We we're able to get a gently used 30 inch flat screen Panasonic that works really well in our apartment. Moreover, it will be a perfect fit in the new place. This one will hold us over for the next few years. By then we should see some new technology on the HDTV front. And, I'm hoping that the OLED technology will be cheaper. My first experience with shopping on Craigslist ended positive. However, there was a period of slight frustration with trying to contact several different sellers. I'm not quite sure why I wasn't contacted by the first tw...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, French Vanilla, Peanut Butter, Peach, and New York Cheesecake. Cake pieces at 50% off when you ask for the special. (Limit 2). I've got the kettle up for the Salvation Army on the blog. Unfortunately, the widget for the dynamic kettle is too large for the side of the blog. If you want to check the progress, you can see it down at the bottom of the blog. Right now, we're at 20% of the goal. I also added a widget to the side for a Carbon Offset. The first 24 people to go to the site from this link can get a free carbon offset for one day. As a bonus, you can then gift out 5 more offset to friends and family. A free and easy way to do something good for everyone. It feels more like the holidays up here at Sugarless deLite now that Morris the Moose is back in the store. If you've been in the store this time of year, you've probably seen the 2 1/2 foot moose dressed in his holiday best. He's been a holiday staple ...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, French Vanilla, Peanut Butter, Raspberry Cheesecake, and New York Cheesecake. Brownie Special: Buy any 2 brownies (items priced at $3.49) for only 5 dollars today. Mix and Match. Limit 4. There are only 20 more shopping days left until Christmas. I'm happy to say that my wife and I are almost done. We'll finish up by this weekend. We've just got to make a trip to Costco to get her grandfather's gift and a quick trip to the mall to get some gift cards for a basket. Soon we'll just have to sit back and wait to give. In the meantime, we'll just have to make due by doing some charitable donations. First on the list is the Network . This is Richardson based program that focuses on providing temporary assistance to families in crisis. The next one will involve a shopping trip this weekend to a shoe store for the Soles4Souls charity. Of course, there is also the continual dollar drops at the Salvation Army red...

This is the last sale rack day until next year, so come in and get some great savings. Well, it took about 4 and 1/2 hours yesterday, but I finally got the KIS program installed. Once I found the right program to remove the reminants of McAfee, it was a relatively simple process. Finding the right program was not. After I got the work computer up and going, I went on to the laptop computer and a home computer. I felt like I was working in IT yesterday. The good news is that it is all working well and the program, once installed, is easy to use. All told: 10 hours spent upgrading 3 computers. Quiz Day: Cupcake Test ! What Your Cupcake Says About You At parties, you stand out from the crowd. You're a fairly unusual person, and you can't hide it. You have lots of restraint in your life. You never are vic...

Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, French Vanilla, Peanut Butter, Raspberry Cheesecake, and Egg Nog. Cone Day! All cones are only $2.08 today (regularly $2.77). I didn't plan on starting my day like this, but I'm currently fight with the Kaspersky Internet Security installation program. Despite the fact that I can't find any remnants of McAfee after going through the removal program and then hunting done the hidden files, the new security suite is convinced that it is still on the computer. It looks like my 30 minute project has turned into an all day affair. Joy. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to them.

It's time to restock the shelves after a busy Thanksgiving rush and to finalize the Christmas preporations. It is a slower pace this week, so we'll have the time to get everything done. We've got orders in for Hallman...

Tomorrow: Coke floats for only $2.99 (regularly $4.62). New Calendar on Monday! As is our budding tradition on the day after Thanksgiving, Erica and I put up our Christmas tree and lights last night. This year we have a new pair of LED icicle lights that we've hung in front of our blue blinds. I think it adds a nice touch to the room with the tree lit and the icicles behind. Once we had finished dinner, we decided to give the stocking hunt one more try. We've had a very hard time finding stockings. Last year, we opted to go without. So far this year, we've had just as hard of a time finding one that we both liked. While it was originally supposed to only be a trip to one store, it turned into a trip to several with a mall journey thrown in for good measure. Finally, we found our ma...

All pumpkin, cherry, chocolate creme, and coconut creme pies are on sell for only $14.99. I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Erica and I had an excellent time in Arlington at a wonderful family linner. Thankfully, the Cowboys also managed a pretty good performance in their victory over the Seahawks, and the Longhorns dominated the Aggies in a rivalry that normally proves to be a little dangerous. Black Friday is here. If you didn't get up this morning before the crack of dawn, you're probably one of the smart ones. I'm not, so I did. A very successful shopping trip...

Green Tip: The tragic number of animals euthanized each year--9.6 million, according to the American Humane Association--is reason enough to help control pet population growth. But there's more. Feral animals kill mammals and songbirds and have been known to infect wild populations--and they're often the offspring of family pets. (It's believed...

Those orders that are not on the Thanksgiving form ...

Pies, Cheesecakes, and Pumpkin Breads? If you need them for Thanksgiving, we've got them. Call us at 972.644.2000 to place your order. One thing that I try not to do during this time of year is add extra things to the mix. I try to get my holiday shopping done early. (Christmas is taken care of with the exception of one gift.) I try to get bills paid out. I try to basically get things accomplished so that I can focus on work and then relaxing when I get home from work. This year, we've added a little kink. We're apartment shopping. After having a bad stretch with maintenance and management at our current apartment community, we've decided to move out and seek greener pastures. Hopefully, we'll get this nailed down in the next couple of days. Then we'll just have to figure out how to move duri...

The order form is below: In general, there is always an air of excitement in the store this time of year. The oven is going everyday. The workers are scurrying like elves with prep work since hardly anything actually comes pre-made to the store. All of this activity means that my work load is greatly amplified. As with most people around the main crush of the holiday season, I start to feel like there are not enough hours in the day for the work that needs to be done. The downside is that when I get home, I just have such a hard time shutting ...

Forgive me if I seem a little groggy today. I had one of those nights last night where sleep did not come easily. The type where you are either too hot or not warm enough. Where you wake up at 3 and aren't able to go back to sleep until 5. That type of night. The type that sets you back a weeks worth of sleep in one evening. I could say it was all because of the Cowboys exciting win in Washington, but that just wouldn't be true. Nevertheless, I was glad to see that t...

Eight days left to order for Thanksgiving. Stop on by or call us at 972.644.2000 to place your order. Well, the holiday time is certainly upon us at the store. A couple of days ago at dinner, Erica turned to me and said that I had the holiday look. I would guess that the look translates to a half crazed unable to shut down look. During this stretch of the year, I tend to revert back to my insomniac ways of old. Additionally, I develop a bizarre taste for fast-food. I'm sure that this has something to do with the ...

We're clearing out some stuff before the holidays, so you can find even more great specials. Nine days left until the ordering deadline for Thanksgiving. While we normally bake additional items, you can get what you want if you order early. 972.644.2000. Green Tip: Go to work on the season's falling leaves with your trusty yard rake, and your emissions are limited to a little sweat. If you use a gas-powered leaf blower instead, you can spew out as much combustion emissions in an hour's work as a car puts out while traveling 350 miles. What's more, the car spreads pollution over a wide area--but the leaf blower puts it right in your yard. [This tip brought to you by the Page-a-Day calendar.] Happy Birthday Wishes to Charles Philip Arthur George or The Prince Charles, Prince of Wales. Perhaps known better for his ...

You'll be glad to hear that we got a 93 out of 100. I finished up Olympos last night. The follow-up to Ilium was not on my TBR list, but my friend had loaned it to me along with Ilium, so I felt compelled to read it while the other was still fresh on my mind. Both books made for a very interesting read. I do feel that the fist was better than the second. If indeed the second is the last, it felt like it was undecided. It's not that it doesn't end. Rather, I fel...
