Welcome to delicious
Restaurants are a way of life for the Culver family: Craig Culver, his wife, Lea, and Craig’s parents, George and Ruth, who owned and ran several supper clubs, including the Farm Kitchen Resort in Baraboo, Wisconsin.
From the start, Craig was drawn to the restaurant business. During college, he worked summers at the Farm Kitchen, where he met his future wife, Lea Weiss. After graduating from UW-Oshkosh in 1973, Craig worked for four years at McDonald’s, gaining many insights that he yearned to apply to his own business.

Do You Need to Start Paying Back Your Homebuyer Credit?
Taxpayers who bought a home in 2008 and claimed the First Time Homebuyer Credit are required to start paying the credit back beginning with their 2010 tax return. The terms of the 2008 credit require that it be paid back over a 15-year period starting with 2010’s tax returns.
That means that any taxpayer who claimed the maximum $7,500 credit in 2008 will have to add $500 to their income tax liability for the next 15 years. If the house gets sold before the 15 years are up, the remaining repayment balance is due the year the house is sold.
What’s a cheese nugget and why do I want one?
When the owner of Pizza Now went out of business, Artie Alberts had a choice to make. Go to work for someone else and possibly be in the same situation again, or start his own business. He decided to start his own business.
On September 4, 1991 he opened Pizza Pro’s at 110 East Hillcrest in DeKalb, providing carry-out and delivery service to the local area. Although the name tells you that you will get a great pizza, it didn’t prepare customers for the variety of sandwiches, pasta and their special “Cheese Nuggets.”

Vehicle care tips for safety and to extend the life of your car or truck
According to recent studies, five percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect. Here are some safety points and tips to remember about your car or truck:
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect precision-crafted components of the transmission and transaxle.
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle’s tires.
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition and concentration of coolant should be checked. A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended (refer to your owner’s manual).

Spring is just around the corner. Can you feel it?
I was driving to a clients home last week and had to put on my sunglasses — it was so bright outside and the sun felt so good (OK, maybe I had my heat on high so it felt extra warm but it did the job — I felt great!). After parking outside her house for the FREE in-home estimate we offer all our new clients, I couldn’t help but noticing a robin sitting on her front stoop. Spring, I thought to myself, is almost here!
When the weather begins to warm up it is common for people to want to clean out the winter blues, to start fresh with the promise of new beginnings. Merry Maids can help!

Don’t ever go out to eat again….
…Unless you go to Flippin Eggs. It’s not just a place to eat, it is truly a DINING EXPERIENCE!! From the time you enter, being greeted with a perky “Hello!” by one of the owners or seeing the special greater, “Manny” the mannequin.
Our specials change every month from chicken and waffles to Chicken Cordon Bleu to deep fried bacon and many other unique dishes. Flippin Eggs specializes in breakfast, but they do it all, and while we’re are only open until 3 pm everyday, during Lent we’re open for dinner and do an all-you-can-eat fish fry.

Scan me, baby!
It’s called a QR code and you’ll see it all over New Values Magazine, both on the cover and throughout the magazine — especially in some advertiser’s ads.
Although initially used for tracking parts in vehicle manufacturing, QR codes are now used in a much broader context, including both commercial tracking and convenience-oriented applications aimed at mobile phone users. They come to us from Japan, where they are very common.
