HAHA!! When I think my nails are "done" it's because I've boogered them up out in the garden! Thanks for the hugs, Zenbirder!

You wanna hear what daughter said to me? Now - the history is that when she and her brother were growing up I lived in a semi-suburban town (there were cows across the street!) in a townhouse development. It's only very recently that I have the land to be able to do any of the self-sufficient...

I'll post pictures when I pick them up!

Someplace I have a "recipe" for preparing terra cota flowerpots to bake in...and a recipe for bread to bake in them. I'll look for that, if you like. You could "prepare" the pots (I think it's oiling it and then seasoning like a cast iron skillet) and then bag up the ingredients and recipe to...

A lady just came to my office and I issued her a key to use this weekend. My daughter and granddaughter happened to be here for a visit - just leaving. Little Adrianna and I had been talking about a rabbit for her birthday. Okay, okay - she's only gonna be two in March but YA know. So I...

Okay - here's my very best "single" story.... When I was single after the kids' dad left out...I met a guy named Hal on-line. We exchanged e-mails and agreed to meet at a local restaurant this one particular evening for dinner. We had made a game out of NOT exchanging pictures, however...

Wildsky, You CRACK me up! :lau

Oh wow...just today somebody sent me an e-mail with a powerpoint in it called "Lies." And it's supposedly funny because it's all these women and you see what they look like fresh-scrubbed, then applying their make-up and then the photo-shoot version. Unfreakin'believable the...

Those numbers come from an average model nation-wide. They take the expected amount of nutrients needed and price them out according to a Minimum Standard of Need function. It's a guideline used to prepare foodstamps allocations and those types of things.

Today's economy is so NOT geared so that the independent person can make a living. Everything in our society seems to be standardized for having a "job." Get the JOB, climb the career ladder, have a good retirement. You need to really analyze your local area - and they are vastly and widely...

Try your local office of Economic Development. Someone mentioned the Extension office - could be, could be not. The one I work in is uber-focused on large-scale producers so if someone called in here with that request 1) we wouldn't give out information so as to be endorsing any one...

A friend recommended this web site: http://www.50plusfriends.com/cookbook/crockpot/index-5b.HTML Looks to be some interesting crock pot dishes.

Neat topic, Beekissed. I think for me the following phrase mostly sums it up: Living simply so others can simply live. I don't remember how old I was when I read the stat about 6% of the world's population using 90+% of the resources, but that just totally floored me. I still have my...

In my job today I was asked to type of a chart of a various sauces. The chart has 20 different sauces, ingredients and how to make them. I'd be willing to e-mail that to anyone who wants it. It's in a 11x17 format and in MSPublisher (03). You wouldn't necessarily have to print it to use it...

I watched it. I thought the tone and message of the speech was pretty much spot-on. Aretha...very nice. John Roberts....oof! Rev What'sHisName...okay. Rev Dr. Joseph Lowery - that benediction made the day! I was wondering what was in the To #44 From #43 note that Bush left for Obama - are...

I wish it were just a stage...but his levels have been checked and re-checked. The doc said he's never seen a hormone level so low for a guy. And he sleeps in another room now and there's never been any offer of "help" - even when the subject has been discussed - which is the part that really...

Thanks, MorelCabin, for your take on it and it's a good comment with a lot of truth to it. When we were first married and my kids were 10 and 12...I did want someone to lead our home and all. We went to his church (which really emphasizes that sort of thing) and I tried to let him take the...

Wintertime temps in Reykjavik, Iceland, are often higher than New York City. Of course, when I was there Memorial Day weekend several years back it was snowing - but we went swimming at an outdoor pool anyway. Those geo-thermal swimming pools at 89 degrees F are the BEST!

No, my daughter is mine. He hasn't any children. He spent our first marriage trying to make me choose him over my kids.

Not all food pathogens give off odors. Even for milk. Expirations dates depend on a lot of variable and, for canned stuff, only means a deterioration in texture, taste or nutritive value.
