The Tip is 'Watch What You Eat' While in the grocery store recently I noticed that the apples were from South America. Next to South American apples were a bin of apples labeled Made in USA. I decided to go with the Made in America apples since they were US grown. Always remember the Big Secret- buying more American made products helps put Americans back to work. It will guide you to food you will want to eat that is grown with US labor. If you just take a moment to look and think before you buy, it is likely you will find what you are looking for. Also, be careful because sometimes labels are not what they seem. Some companies use the letters USA to fool you into thinking they are American products. Trust only those products that literally claim their country of origin. Look for labeling like: Product of USA, Made in USA, Grown in USA, or other definitive markings. And last, when you begin the journey of purposely identifying American products keep in mind that it may take a little time but the more you look the easier it becomes. You will start to remember which brands are made in the USA and which aren't. This knowledge makes it easy and will accumulate over time. Some food items are not grown in the USA and you will learn that too. The Big Secret tells us we don't need to purchase everything from USA manufacturers just a little more than we are accustom to. If you can average $200 a month more on domestic purchases than you otherwise would it adds up fast. $2,400 a year is equivalent to 7 MILLION new American jobs. We believe that is a good thing. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Little Kites Welcome to Littlekites.com, featuring miniature kites, mini kites, a miniature kite train, a miniature butterfly kite, dragonfly kites, a fairy kite, a tiny housefly kite and bigger kites. For kids, teachers, educators, moms, dads and kite clubs, I've also included a page about a kids kite that's quick and easy to make. Or, if you're in the mood to make some miniature kites yourself, I give some tips on my how to page and throughout the site, by way of describing some of the materials and techniques I used for making the kites. I'll be adding old and new kites to the pages listed above, as the weather cooperates and the time becomes available to get out and actually fly the kites in my kite bag. I didn't make all the kites you'll find on this website, nor did I design all the kites I DID make. I try to give credit where it's due, because we all know how vengeful kite fliers are. Thinking about it, I probably didn't make or even pay for most of the really great kites you'll find here. Unless I have to count buying a raffle ticket, or being lucky enough to have people just give me kites because I'm such a swell guy. What I hope to do with this site, is to provide some information and promote flying and making kites. If I happen to get filthy rich and have to retire to Tahiti in the process, I'll just try to make the best of it. The only kites I have for sale here, are the miniature kites I make. I deal mostly with retailers and people that want custom graphic applications on the sails of the diamond Eddy kites, but if you want a few of the kites I make, please check the Buy Online button. Enjoy the site and drop me a line, if you're so inclined. (Please include the word KITES in the subject line, so it's easier for me to distinguish your REAL EMAIL from the SPAM I get). Thanks for stopping by and taking a look! Tom Tinney |
