We make cheesy potatos with ham;

Layer thinly sliced potatos, thinly sliced onions, swiss cheese, and cheddar cheese in a baking dish.  Bake on 400 til potatos are soft and cheese is melted.  Very simple but delicious! Goes wonderfuly with ham...

I was just stiring instant potatos and then somehow it jumped on my belly and now I have this 2-3 inch mass of skin that has blisters, some of which have popped, and this one 2 inch round lesion that just looks gross.  I probably should have gone to the hospital, but since I have no money I just treated it over the counter with antibiotic ointment.  Has anyone done this before?  If so what did you use?  It is painful!!!!  I bought this lidocaine stuff, but it hurts worse.  At least it is healing!!!  I am a dum dum!!!  Those potatos were out to get me darnit!!!

Preheat oven to 400

Place baby carrots on a cookie sheet (one with sides), drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper

Roast in hot oven until fork tender...about 30-40 minutes...yummy and easy!

Hi,

Quite a few years back, I had a recipe I can no longer find at home or on the internet, which is where I believe I first found it.

It's for Cuban slow roasted pork with mojo sauce. The recipe's instructions called for putting the roast in the oven on very low heat for at least 24 hours. (I've found a similar one on Epicurious, but would prefer to re-find the one I originally used).

Sound familiar? If so, can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks. 

I had a hankerin for a coconut a few weeks ago so I bought one.  Hadn't had one since I was a kid.  I drilled the holes in the 'eyes' and drank the coconut juice inside.  Then I pryed out the meat, meticulously peeled the brown junk off it with a knife, and ate a whole bunch.  Okay, my husband and I both at the whole thing in one sitting it was sooooo yummy!  The next day...well, all I'm gonna say is that I am thankful we have 2 bathrooms and were fully stocked on TP.  We weren't sick mind you, just incredibly cleaned out.  The coconut juice, which only I drank, acted like a diuretic and I think I peed every hour on the hour--and incredible amount each time at that. 

I have chronic constipation too because I hate to drink water.  I tend to stay borderline dehydrated myself.  The chemical laxatives just plain wreak havoc and are very painful and inconvenient to put it nicely.  I'd go with better diet, water, and fruits before I'd go with pills if at all possible.  Hope she feels better soon!

He had such loving parents these last months of his life and you did everything you could for him. 

At the cremation place they gave me this card.

The Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called the Rainbow Bridge.  When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to the Rainbow Bridge.

There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.  There is plenty of food, water, and sunshine and our friends are warm and comfortable.  All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor.  Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in or dreams of days and times gone by.  The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing, they each miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind.  They all run and play together but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance.  Their bright eyes are intent.  Their eager body quivers.  Suddenly they begin to run from the group, flying over the green grass, their legs carrying them faster and faster.  You have been spotted and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.  The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together...

All suggestions posted area great.  Don't forget to add in fresh stuff.  A head of iceberg lettuce is pretty inexpensive most days, especially with summer coming.  How about getting seeds and planting a garden?  You can start the seeds indoors right about now and they'll be ready to go outside in a month or so.

This is a great site, too.

Lots of really good frugal ideas.

I just bought a bunch of stuff to make breakfast burritos with - which is one of my favorite food groups.  24 eggs, a large package of Jimmy Dean sausage, 2 bags of cheese, 1 large tub of red chile, 30 tortillas and 5 pounds of potatoes only cost $22 and change.  I figure I'll get at least 25, possibly 30 burritos out of it.  I'm assembling them and sticking them in the freezer as one of my projects today.

parsley.  Sometimes I will add just a touch of mustard.  Any way I make them they seem to turn out good.  I usually just make them with egg white instead of the whole egg, but sometimes will add the egg yolk as well.  I love salmon and make it frequently for myself as well. 

Drizzled over the fruit that browns will keep it from browning...or at least I think anyway.  Never take cooking advice someone who messes up hard boiled eggs.
