    What did they do before ... ?

    Here's one... One handle is missing, you you get the idea. We actually found this between the walls of our old house. We had the fire Dpt. come out to use it as a practice house; when they were going through to get the layout they also checked the walls for electrical units and used a sledge...

    What did they do before ... ?

    Me three!! I was lucky enough to move to a place filled with old stuff out in the woods, etc. The house we first moved into on the property was about 100 years old, had a stone cellar, huge attic that got 120+ degrees in the summer... It tons of fun! While we're on about lawn tools.. When we...

    Lead in Rival crockpots? Maybe not as bad as I thought.

    Food Prices, Shortages & Inflation - The Trash Index

    CR, what are you feeding your rabbits? Alfalfa pellets? If you can find a source of quality alfalfa and grass you might want to look into that.. usually buying by the bale is a LOT cheaper and they are the same thing.

    Deadly Medicine

    Surprise surprise! http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2011/01/deadly-medicine-201101?currentPage=all Rather long... The gist of it is that American companies are moving clinical trials to poor areas in foreign countries where there are less health restrictions and where people, for...

    what is the difference (in kidspeak)between homeopathy and naturopathy

    CJW, I'm thinking that falls under the use of herbalism, but either way :thumbsup (I definitely believe in homeopathic works.. I guess i'm just not the type to need proof of everything.. I hope the day never comes when everything has a scientific overtone.)

    Alrighty Folks...POW Pics needed! **Big new call out in #124**

    I think it's great! Isn't that what most of us here want? A nice little cabin for ourselves and a huge barn for our animals? :lol:

    Making Liver/organ meats Palatable

    Thanks! I stopped with tooth paste about two years ago. If I use anything at all it's simply baking soda.

    Bubblingbrooks Journey - Salut!

    Oh, my mistake, I read Wifezilla's post and thought it was yours! Very cool! I've been there, and I have a brother who lives in Ely, a bit further north than Virginia, it's beautiful up there!! We take a trip up at least as far as Grand Rapids each year. Oh to live up in those trees!

    Making Liver/organ meats Palatable

    Sorry; I meant many of the people in the old photos on Google look like average folk today. Well, aside from all of the overweight people.. Lol. Grain free is something I would really need to work on, but I take FCLO daily and drink raw goat milk often (I wouldn't say every day, but quite a few...

    Bubblingbrooks Journey - Salut!

    BBrooks, how cold DOES it get up there?? I'm amazed you have anything growing up there even under your cold frames. The coldest I've experienced was a few years ago when we had -60. How are the goats? Have you fallen in love yet? :lol: Are you continuing to milk those two then? How are they...

    Making Liver/organ meats Palatable

    They all look like regular people to me? Teeth.. Yup, terrible! Overlapping, crooked, sometimes I feel like I need my entire lower jaw replaced. LOL. Dentists cry when I open my mouth. My teeth grow in WITH cavities (no enamel) I'll probably have to have them all torn out some day. :/

    Making Liver/organ meats Palatable

    Ok, aside from a small skull, what is considered poor facial conformation? Never had liver before.. But I'd be willing to try! Aside from liver and gizzards, what else can you eat?
