Antique furniture fascinates me; I inherited a few pieces recently. They look a bit shabby, and I do not know if I ought to refinish them or just give them a minimum of cleaning. I have read that refinishing antique furniture can drastically reduce its value as an antique. What would you...

Does this concept amaze you? Can you think of some great recipes? Right now, I can think of certain fruit juices and salads. Some sweets can also be prepared without lighting your stove. I will be glad if you share some great recipes you know.

We all have our pet methods that work best for us. What works for one need not necessarily work for everyone. I drink plenty of water, keep myself busy with household chores and gardening, take two walks per day with the dog, and keep away from fried foods, sweets, meat, and alcohol. This keeps...

Doctors are usually skeptical about alternative medicine because it poses a stiff competition to them, and they don't want to lose their business. Actually, I feel we must strike a balance between modern and alternative medicine. We can cure a lot of small aches, pains, and ills with alternative...

You have got a point there. Rushing off to the venue to watch something that you can watch on TV, in the comfort of your own home, sounds a bit foolish. I guess people want to watch something live just for the thrill of it. After all, it is more fun watching a football match at a stadium...you...

I am a bit too busy right now for shows, but I do remember enjoying Buffy. I sure will check out the new thing. Thanks for letting me know.

I think a lot of fuss is being made about "plagiarism." Actually, there is nothing "original" in this world.

Lucky you! Wish I could get a free rental too! Regarding movies, I love anything that can make me laugh. I suggest you go in for Pink Panther, unless you prefer some other movie, of course.

I don't take any vitamin tablets on a daily basis. But I do take a Vitamin B Plex Forte whenever I feel tired, which isn't often. I don't think we need that many vitamins. The body always discards the excess, and it is a waste even if we have them if the body doesn't really need them. I get my...

Oh dear, this is absolutely too much. She is simply adding a lot of stress into the kids' lives. Life is stressful enough as adults. But should kids share adult stress? They should be permitted to enjoy life as much as possible. A balance must be struck between work and play.

I don't think we will be having serious money problems in future. There is lots of money around; why else would be banks literally beg me to take a loan when I don't need one? One the other hand, with the scarcity of jobs around, I wonder if it is possible to make both ends meet as easily as we...

Right now, gold is extremely expensive. Moreover, I feel that the quality of gold is no good these days. I got a bangle a few months back, and it is already bent. Perhaps purchasing gold when it is cheap is a great idea, provided you want to sell it when the price goes up. Personally, I prefer...

I have a lot of great furniture around as well as a couple of cats. I haven't declawed them; so naturally they feel that it is a good idea to sharpen their claws on the furniture. Now, I can shoo them off if they try this in front of me. But I can't stand near the furniture and protect it all...

Do you know any good ones? I am interested in getting hold of one. I would love to learn to make furniture the professional way. Do you think online woodworking tutorials are worth it?
