    Tipping the Mailman

    I actually listened to a radio interview with a "tipping expert" on just this topic last week. The woman interviewed mentioned the law about accepting cash, and the $20 limit. According to her a gift card was "the way to go" with your mail carrier.

    Here is a way to try plain yogurt, to make it tasty and delicious: mix with museli, let sit 10 min., then add a chopped tart apple and a sprinkle of dried cranberries. Mmmmm. It's my favorite breakfast.
