    Reducing expenses

    I haven't been able to find locally the washing soda, but based on an article I found online (posted about on here somewhere), baking soda is sodium BIcarbonate, whereas washing soda is sodium carbonate. All that's needed to make that simple chemical change is to bake your baking soda (on a...

    Reducing expenses

    Tortoise - :hugs SO glad your FB friend talked you down! I'd definitely miss your wit and wisdom around here! :hugs Something to think about - do cancel the cable after football, get internet through the phone company, and then pay $8/month to Netflix - I know they really advertise for the...

    Foodies - explain please?

    I will ALWAYS take any excuse for a long hot soak :D (Now to go remember to buy epsom salts when at the pharmacy tomorrow - assuming the roads clear up enough to go, which the better, cause my son needs a med refill. Ice storm :barnie )

    Recipes from our Grandparents

    Awwww, nuts! Thanks for sharing! Again, it's one of those things she did by feel. Soooo, look at how many cups is in the smallish bag of PF stuffing mix, and go for that much dried out stale bread....

    Who wants to experiment?

    Okay, so I was eating "lowfat frozen yogurt" instead of ice cream tonight (I know, I know, lowfat instead of full fat, but I didn't buy it), and was wondering if anybody has tried a homemade frozen yogurt, or even better - kefir - ice cream style dessert? Anybody tried it? Who wants to...

    Recipes from our Grandparents

    Oh goodie - somebody else's Grandma who taught 'em by feel! I'm going to give my slight modification, b/c Grandma always saved all bread scraps (ends of the loaf, stuff going stale, etc) and used little to none of the Pepperidge Farm stuffing mix ;) Grandma's Cornbread Stuffing (can easily be...

    Foodies - explain please?

    On the first link about the Top 12: They forgot to mention that red dyes can also cause massive misbehavior/aggravate ADD symptoms. I'll give my son caffeine before a drink w/ red dye in it - and b/c of the Asperger's, he wigs out on caffeine, it doesn't calm him down like stimulants do on most...

    BarredBuff's Homesteading Shenanigans

    canning bacon

    I did read the comments, and I understand Granny Miller's point ... but, I feel that we have to blend the old style and the new. Convenience food might not have been heard of a couple generations back, but it's something we've become accustomed to, and if we can combine the best of both worlds...
