Today is TERRIFIC 2's Tuesday and I've got 2 Tips for you again today.

Mexican Turkey Scramble
Heat 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 thinly sliced scallions and cook for 1 minute. Add 1 cup finely diced skinless white turkey meat and 3 tablespoons fresh spicy salsa; cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Add 3 beaten eggs and, stirring constantly, cook until eggs are set. Top each serving with 2 avocado slices and serve with extra salsa, if desired.

On Christmas morning a woman told her husband, I just dreamed that you gave me a beautiful diamond necklace.
What do you think it means?
You’ll know tonight, he said.
That evening just before opening presents, the husband came home with a small package and gave it to his wife.
Delighted, she opened it only to find a book entitled
