I'm looking for a (super) inexpensive homer extractor 2 to 6 frame capacity. My brother in law is hoping to find one for under 100 dollars, but can go a bit higher if necessary. Thank you!! Sandra Mort

For hoarding a stash, do you guys do cash, metal or a mix? What form is the metal?

My daughter wets the bed and we use Good Nites brand diapers for her, since she doesn't fit the smaller brands and the no name versions we've tried were uncomfortable. The cloth diaper seamstresses we've spoken to said that by her age, the bladder capacity was too large for her to be able to...

I'm completely at a loss for how to figure this out. I'm supposed to pay 300 or so a month to the oil company based on a budget plan, but I don't think we're using nearly as much as the predicted amount since we keep the heat ridiculously low and are using wood. Can I call them and ask them...

I'm about to sit down and create a budget as the first step in getting our finances out of the condition they are in. We have a fairly stable income, but are having trouble making ends meet from poor money management skills. When I lived in New York City, I had a grocery budget that I broke...

I just got 50 lbs of fresh, locally grown, organic corn for making into cornbread, cornmeal mush and... well... I don't know what else to do with it. I have a grain mill and can do coarse through fine. All suggestions welcome!!! I think this weekend, I'm going to try making Indian Pudding!

I want to make fire starters for dh for the woodstove to give him for Chanukah. I was thinking of making them and wrapping them in giftwrap and just tossing them whole, wrap and all, into the wood stove. I think the kids would have a lot of fun making them. Then I looked for recipes online...

I've got access to patty pan squash, about 5" across, for 10 cents a pound. What can I do with 'em?

I've spent so long defending my choice to homeschool that I feel guilty for considering outschooling my kids. I finally found a school that I think we're all going to be happy with and picked up my family and moved it two hours in order to be there (though that's not the only reason). It's...

I've noticed that a lot of the cookbooks for canning use huge amounts of sugar. I'm not anti sugar, I just don't like stuff so sweet, which leaves me ruling out most of the low sugar recipes, too, since they're often full of artificial sweeteners. I also am aware that you don't just change the...

My goal is less packaged, more homemade. But of course, with four kids, and my new hobby (140 chickens!), time still won't be unimportant. I'm moving to the country on Saturday and will be close to a farmer's market and some pick your own farms and I'm joining a buying club in September and...

I don't know which folder this belongs in, I'm sorry! I need to go through ideas on where I am now, what needs to change and what I'm not willing to change, and how to do it without getting overwhelmed or putting myself into debt in the name of getting myself self sufficient. Suggestions...
