E N E R GY E F F I CI E N C Y TIP OF THE MONTH September kicks off the fall season, when cooler mornings and milder evenings often mean you can give your heating/cooling system a break. Open windows, use ceiling fans and enjoy the fresh air whenever temperatures allow. It’s also a great time to schedule annual HVAC maintenance, as professionals are often more available before colder weather arrives. Source: Dept. of Energy

1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, drained 1 (20 oz) package frozen corn
Directions: Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir to release some of the juices, then add the onion and okra. Fry until tender and browned, stirring constantly. Be careful, as this tends to brown quickly. Pour in the tomatoes, and simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes. Mix in the corn, and simmer for another 10 minutes.
