HERE ARE A FEW HILLBILLY SOLUTIONS IF YOU DON'T HAVE ALOT OF FUNDS: Don't change the HW tank, Drain it flush it and install new elements, check the rod in the top that collects the minerals if it has one. Put a insulation jacket on it, you can get a kit. Install a manual breaker just for the...

:clap :gig :lau :celebrate I can't get thru a day without watching an episode of Star Trek The original.... Or sometimes Sliders. I watch at least one ST movie on weekends......While crocheting. I have an unopened bottle of Romulan ale displayed in my knick knack shelf. The Star Trek action...

:pop Here's some interesting stuff about historical shelters. During the cold war the government installed a top secret bunker for the Senate and House in case of an attack by the U.S.S.R. Look up Greenbrier WV Resort Bunker. Lots of links and history. Cool!

This thread cracks me up! :pop :yuckyuck :ep :gig :lau :gig

Excuse me for reviving an old thread, but I am seeking information about pepperoni. Anyone have an Italian heritage? I know that pepperoni keeps well but does anyone know how to make it homemade? How long can you actually keep it without refrigeration? DH has stories and vague recollections...

I have discontinued my BP gas/credit card, I don't care now how much cash back they give. :rant :somad :tongue

Sorry about this, accidents can happen easily, don't blame yourself because, it is very hard to do on a moving target. U need lots of hands to keep the patient from moving and sometimes that doesn't work either. I have done this both ways, and did not have any problems w/ bleeding but kept...

I would go with Bee's suggestion. DH tried that on my bedrooms upstairs and all I get done sometimes is sweeping up the chunks of plaster stuff from these "fixes". We have (abandoned coal mine) subsidence and there is no level place in my entire house, and we have tried every means of...

P.S. I am drying fresh blueberries and peach slices.

Lemon Balm ? What are some uses for this? I have some, but I don't like the smell and tea is awful. I think it may have some medicinal use but I don't know how to use? Can you use this for viral colds flu or cough maybe mixed with something else or sweetened?

I live about one tank of gas from Wash.DC, in fact my area is a popular destination for and many have second homes,from Wash. DC and Baltimore, not to mention Pittsburg, PA. After 9-11 there were many community efforts to set up homeland security groups to learn how to cope with the people...

It's raining here too. :ya I hope it lasts a while. It might help the blackberries. They are tiny and need some rain to develop. You would be surprised how useful that a bolt of nylon netting is and how much is on the bolt. I bought one years ago and have used it for so many projects: cheese...

Hi Sis, It is bad here too. I only grow in pots and stuff and we are carrying water from the spring but the heat is taking a toll. We are just above 3,000 ft. here so we are about 10 degrees less than below, here it is now in the 90's for days, but this is highly abnormal for our area. I...

I would agree with this option. I have to put my 2 cents in here,( although I don't think I have seen any of the political stuff yet so I don't know what is being censored here, and I haven't been around here for very long.) The title of this thread made me go MMMM....???? I wondered if this...

Now I'm afraid and I don't even own a pressure canner. :hide

I re-did some black rasberry jelly that did not jell a couple of years ago. I was afraid to add any pectin or sugar, so decided to just cook it,couldn't get a good test to tell when it jelled so it went way past jelly. :th I'm not sure what it is but it will be good as a hot topping for ice...

I think that it is a possibility of food failure in the USA because of many reasons, factory farms, weather patterns, resistant plant diseases and blight,etc. i.e...... I like Fuji apples. Last week Wal- Mart raised the price by 20 cents on the lb. I hope the price goes back down when the...

Sorry to be MIA for a few days. :hu I had some things to do. I am not near any legal sources of raw or pasturized milk. I do know of an Amishman that would probably sell for animal feed use, but the penalty for getting raw milk, and transporting across state lines here is worse than if I was...

:pop :clap

P.S. The edit in dark letters on my first post was not done by me. sorry I would not make such a caustic comment about my own post. :hu I don't know how that happened?
