YIKES!! Just glancing at it, that food insurance stuff is pretty pricey. :th

Back when DD was little and drank a lot of juice, she never got it full strength; I always watered it down half and half. If I was reconstituting the frozen stuff, I'd add another can or two of water when mixing it. I do use fruit juice full strength, though when I make freezer pops, though.

I make sourdough bread every week or two. Good stuff. I have learned the hard way, though, that it's not a good idea for me to warm up the oven for the bread to rise. I kept forgetting to TURN OFF the oven (duh), and several times cooked the unrisen bread. :rolleyes: I've found that leaving the...

I have some chocolate mint in my garden. Do you think that would be good, or make them taste wierd?

Our Food Depot has peaches for 49 cents per pound. Guess what I'll be canning this weekend? :weee

I used to groom for a living. Not everybody tipped me, but believe me, those that did were GREATLY appreciated! At best, you have to give half of what is charged to the shop, you have to buy your own equipment and supplies, and there is no insurance or paid vacations. And, of course, the gummint...

What do you store the gasoline in?

ok, folks, I have irrefutable evidence that things are getting REALLY BAD. A bag of Dove dark chocolates went up ONE DOLLAR since last week. And it was already up about 60 cents from the week before that. Seriously, now.... :hit

Don't forget stuff like bandaids, neosporin, alcohol (the non-drinking kind, although that would be useful too!), and OTC as well as prescription meds. If you get your prescriptions through the mail, you can get the refills about 3 weeks early, and build up a little safety reserve there.

I make pepper relish every few years, and it gets better as it ages. I think the last time I made it was about 4 years ago, and it's still good.

I have a white gaura plant in my back yard. From my kitchen window, the flowers on the slender stalks look like they're just floating in air. The bumblebees must've been checking them out, because the flowers were bouncing around in the still air. It was really fun and peaceful to watch.

I've been told I remind people of a Golden Retriever. Does that count?

A CBC (complete blood count) is a good place to start - looks at red & white blood cells, platelets, etc.. From there the Dr. can tell if your body is fighting something (your immunity cells will be high), or if you have some kind of anemia (your red blood cells will be out of whack). And...

I will be praying for God's direction for you. South Carolina is a nice state; we lived in Columbia for a couple of years a while back, and loved it!

Awesome! We're not allowed to pick at our dump either. Bummer.

Our gas prices have been going down here in Georgia. They're around $3.58 today. Can't figure out why, but I won't complain.

Wow, y'all! Some pretty amazing pictures here!:thumbsup

Yowch! You know, our Maker can fix him up better than what the doctors predict. After all, He made him in the first place. I'm gonna ask Him to... never hurts to ask! I'm thankful that He's brought your brother this far, and that he's in good spirits.

I got my first migraine when I was in 6th grade. I get the aura like you (flashing lights that increase in size until about 2/3 of my vision is blocked); it lasts 20 minutes, then I have 20 minutes until the headache. It lasts 6 hours, then I'm wiped out for about a day. For me, it's almost...

Yeah, sorry to say, we've discovered the folks who flaunt their "Christianity" tend to be the ones on the take. It really burns me :somad. Like someone said earlier, you can tell who the real believers are by their actions and attitudes. (And I personally don't want to meet my maker and have to...
