my TV programs are loaded with ads for men regarding
erectile dysfunction, all the time. Irregardless of that, I knew for years that HRT was supposedly associated with breast cancer. In the 80s I was admonished by a physician because she thought I should take estrogen. I told her I was not going to as I had already heard them. This association is not something that has recently come on the scene. My choice and I chose not to. Have never been sorry about doing it, no hot flashes, never and as far as I know the ole bones still holding out. Information like this sneaks up on people who are not informed from the get go.

Grill
We make a prime rib every year for christmas and we always cook ours on the grill? I don't know if you have one or use one, but that's how we cook ours.
sink
My daughter was watering her plant from school in the bathroom so when I went to plunge the sink tons of bark from the planter mix came up. Don't forget to plug the overflow hole with a wet washcloth to get the pressure higher in the pipe.
I would probably do anything to avoid a workman coming into my house, but pipes can be tricky to break loose and it takes a lot of confidence and some pipe wrenches, so be brave if you are going to shut the water off and go for it, and don't panic in the middle of everything! It's the weekend and plumbers get OT!
It is true about the nut under the sink s/m
I had the same problem and my dad showed me where it was. He also recommended that maybe twice a year or so, put boiling water down the pipes to help get rid of soap scum buildup. I've been doing that for a couple of years now with no blockages. I do it to the tub, kitchen sink and bathroom sinks. Just run the tea kettle and pour down...
Steaks on indoor grill
like a George Foreman are not the best. Maybe because the pressure from the closed grill makes all the juices run out, I'm not sure. I was determined to learn how to make a great steak indoors and I tried everything including the indoor grill. Did some research and I found most sources suggested cooking on the stove in a thick bottomed nonstick pan (I use Calphalon)with no oil, no butter, just start with a very hot pan. Wow, were they right. It somehow keeps all the juices in and they sort of blacken almost on the outside and are the best! And you don't even really need much seasoning aside from maybe salt and pepper. My husband can't believe how great they are and swears that must be how the restaurants cook them. Just wanted to share that with you.
i don't think polite will sink in with an alcoholic.
First be a friend and tell her she really needs help. Encourage AA. Offer to take her there. Then set the boundaries, that she either gets help or needs to find another place to live by such-and-such a date.
clogged sink drain
My bathroom sink drain is clogged, probably with toothpaste, and I have tried TWO bottles of Drano, to no avail. I also tried a mixture of vinegar and baking soda, followed by hot water (got the recipe off a do-it-yourself non-toxic website). I know the Drano is highly toxic, but I'm getting desperate. I'm embarrassed when guests go in there. I'm renting. Should I just give up and ask my landlord to send a plumber?
to grill steaksand fish is in the
George Foreman griller!
Others may disagree with me, but since it is cooked
I think it would be fine.
Has anyone ever cooked radishes?
As in steam, sautee, etc.?
If so, how did you cook them & what were they like once cooked? Rachael Ray did some the other day on her show. First I've seen red-skinned radishes cooked. I figure if she can do it, someone here may have done it better.
I think the whole idea of the George Foreman grill
therefore the juices are supposed to come out to make it less fatty. Searing in the pan keeps the juice in but also the fat. I liked the taste from the George Foreman grill, but I didn't like the clean-up :(
I would prefer just to bake in the oven actually. Also in regards to marinading meat. 30 minutes is plenty of time. If you keep it in the marinade longer it tends to make the meat rubbery. Just a thought...
I occasionally put a pork loin on the grill. nm

Go to hgtv.com and see if they talk about this at all. If behind the sink & stove,
s
Gently hand wash it in the sink and let air dry outside. nm

I lightly grill my fruit kabobs...
Simple combinations like strawberry-kiwi, strawberry-banana or strawberry-pineapple are outstanding grilled desserts. Also, mango is really good with any of these combos. Grill the kabobs over medium hot coals for 6 to 8 minutes, turning a few times. They're great as is, right off the grill, with nothing else added. But I find them best with added sweetness, like a very light sprinkling of a sugar-cinnamon mixture or brush on some white grape juice or a very light sugar or honey syrup. Hope this helps..
I live in condo and go to park to grill out. SM
I use an automatic lighter, but the thing stinks. It's just a cheapie thing, maybe they all are. Are there any better lighters out there? I'm not taking Sharper Image, but just something better you might use to light candles, start a fire or what not?
I'm sure I sound stupid. I'm not exactly Miss Handyperson. If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it. Or should I just go to Home Depot and try to find someone (which is the problem with that place) to help.
This has to be the dumbest question asked all day on this board, I know.
My last MIL cooked everything on wood stove
and things were delicious. She never had electric nor gas and probably would have never wanted one. How she did it, I will never know. She cooked everything from collard greens to breads such as biscuits and cornbread. Yum, yum.
It should be fine as long as it is cooked.

1. Stuffing cooked in turkey!
2. Sweet potato casserole.
3. Fruit salad.
we usually also have homemade rolls, another vegetable and cranberry sauce, sometimes mashed potatoes with the gravy too...
i love the homemade chunky cranberry sauce, but no one else does...
It says the bacon is cooked and drained.
I almost missed that part, too - reading too fast.
Oooooh, I forgot about Spitfire Grill. It WAS great.

Did anyone ever make small flounder fillets on the grill. I know they need to be done quickly
because they are so small and thin. How long should they stay on there. I tried them one time in a pan and they turned to mush.
I also cooked mine for a short time and then put them in the oven and
from time to time would baste with sauce. I had the oven low and cooked them slowly and they were wonderful. My family just loved them when I invited them over for dinner. You made me hungry for them. It has been a long time since I made them. Mine were not fancy, just good!!! Good luck!
I've ended the cazillion dirty glasses in the sink every day problem...
My husband and I got tired of the kids coming to the kitchen a bunch of times during the day and each time grabbing a new glass to drink from - even after we asked them to pick a spot on the counter to keep their glass at and rinse it out/wash it after every use. Previously we'd end up with the dishwasher filled on the top level with glasses every day.
I went to Target and found different colored plastic tumblers. I bought a tumbler for everyone in the household. At supper time tonight I put all tumblers on the table and told everyone to pick their favorite color. After this was done they were all told this is now their color to use, and they're solely responsible for their tumbler each day, and are to rinse/wash it as needed throughout the day. I then went to the cabinets and proceeded to pack up all but 4 glasses we have in the cabinet - and those 4 I've moved to the very top shelf. They know that if their tumbler is found outside of the kitchen the problem is solved of "who left the glass on the living room table?" None will be allowed to wonder to bedrooms or they'll lose their tumbler and have nothing to drink from but a small juice glass. If we have company they can use the 4 glasses on the top shelf.
This should work and we'll no longer have dishpan hands!
I put the egg and cheese in a whole wheat or veggie wrap with some cooked spinach

Give 'em a swish in the sink. If concerned about color running, try with 1 stem or leaf first. Or

No. Bacon is loaded with carbs and saturatated fat. It would be fine without the bacon.

Get weaning food at PetStore, use a syringe, feed the formula, cooked veggies SM
I looked on Google and got totally carried away reading about the lovebirds. One thing, if your birds are hand-fed they will be much better pets, will allow you to handle them when they are grown. If you have no dogs or cats, you might even let them have a birdie playground on top of the cage, but that's for somebody who has really worked with the little guys since Day One of life. Have Fun!

Hel*s Kitchen
Chef Ramsey is a hoot!! I have to agree with you..I doubt I would ever eat anything they made either.
The other night they made them put all the wasted food into plastic containers so they could see what they did. It was sooo gross. LOL.
What I have always wondered...Are the people that you see eating there paid to do that? and do they hear all the commotion in the kitchen?? Especially Ramsey's language.
No matter what...I think the show is great entertainment.
kitchen
I am in the corner of my kitchen - it works out okay as long as everybody is out of the house.
we are redoing our kitchen
We are doing this the cheap way and painting the cabinets. They are in good shape just need perked up.
I HAVE TO TELL YOU...I beleve ol' Nick has seen better days! OH MY GOSH. THAT PIC IS A HOOT!!!!!
kitchen cabinets
Has anyone ever re-did old veneer kitchen cabinets? If so, what did you use to "spruce" them up? My cabinets themselves are in decent shape, but some of the veneer is starting to peel off. My husband and I are putting our house up for sale and I want something inexpensive that looks good. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Anyone watching He*l's kitchen
Anyone watching the new season of Hel*'s kitchen with Chef Gordon Ramsey. I missed last week but caught it last night. DH and I love that show. Ramsey tells em like it is. I hope some of them get better because I would not ever eat anything any one of those contestants ever made. They are supposed to have some experience but they waste so much food. Just wondered if I'm the only sicko out here who laughs when those people get yelled at.
Kitchen Nightmares
That show made me almost not want to go out and eat anymore. Some of those places, yuck. That was another one of my favorite shows. I wonder if that'll come back.
Hardwood in the kitchen......
Friends of our had hardwood in their kitchen. While out of town, there was a leakage from their fridge and it ruined the floor. Even if they had been there, the water got in the grooves of the wood and the only way to make it look right would be to replace all the wood. They now have ceramic tile which holds up to everything.
What type of kitchen mop do you use?
I am really frustrated with my kitchen mop right now. I have a cermanic tile floor that has to be mopped at least once or twice a week (when I feel like it). I can't find a mop that I like and gets the floor clean. Just curious what type of floor you have and what kind of mop do you use?
We have ceramic in the kitchen
and I use a Swiffer. I also use it on my wood floors in the family room and the dining room.
Love Hell's Kitchen
used to watch 90210, I'm finally sick of watching re-runs. My new guilty pleasure is One Tree Hill on Soap Net. Love Survivor.
Eeek. Now there is a katydid in the kitchen.
The critters just never stop. This one must have suicidal ideation. Wait till the cat gets a hold of him.
refacing kitchen cabinets
I am buying a home with a kitchen that needs re-doing but can't afford to have all new cabinets installed. Has anyone had their cabinets re-faced and if so, how did it come out? Is the cost really a lot less than buying new cabinets? My kitchen isn't really all that big either.
I got one to the local kitchen shop.
My mom knew I needed new pots and pans, but as I am so picky, she just got me a gift card so I could go pick my own. 
Carry the hardwood into the kitchen!
It is just as easy to care for as linoleum and it will look wonderful carried through continuously. It will make your house look more spacious.
3 in the kitchen near the back door, and
I've seen videos where some people cut a side-entry hole in a big storage bin like you get at Walmart, and fill it with litter. (Can be covered, or not, though many cats don't like covered boxes because it intensifies the odor for them.) The high walls, with the only low spot being the entry, keep most of the litter in if they're real diggers & flingers!
sounds delicious -- my little boy is in the kitchen
i set him up with the mixer in the sink so he doesn't make too huge of a mess. he loves baking cakes cuz it's like a science project (he's 8)... loves baking...
We have a dimmer switch in our kitchen -
and on the box it said not to use them in a light with a dimmer - When we put them in anyway, they buzzed the whole time they were on. So we only use them in regular lights.
California Pizza Kitchen
makes a very good frozen pizza; for a while I was hooked on the 5-cheese and tomato. You can just see the calories dripping off of it.
Definitely modern, kitchen has dark blue
walls and cabinets, all built in white. Have dark brown slate on floor, so those are the colors and just drawing a blank about the counters.
Lysol Kitchen Bacterial Spray
and then wipe. Works great. I love the stuff!
The girl in the kitchen telling her dad how awful it all is...
and then her mom gives her money in the other room. That one always cracks me up.
