Ginger Quince here...

Salmon with Makoto ginger dressing
This was our dinner tonight. DH made the salmon on the grill. Put it on foil with salt and pepper on low heat on the gas grill, he says. Total time on the grill was around 25 minutes (big, thick pieces), and about the last 7-10 minutes he put the dressing on with a brush. The thick part of the dressing stayed on top and the thinner part ran down onto the foil and carmelized the bottom (skin) side. We had fancy bread and sweet potatoes (microwaved with skins on) with it.
Salmon is so good for us, but the flavor is too strong for me unless it is doctored up to smooth the flavor down. This was fabulous. If you like ginger, try it.
It was called Hawiian White Ginger..sm
and I wore it too! It's not available any longer, darn it. perhaps we should petition avon to bring it back.  Cat
Hawaiian Ginger Calgon Shower &
Moisturizing lotion, my grandson Cameron gave me the last time he was here, for my B-Day before he went back to Hawaii....Very nice! I just used some of that old time favorite White ginger, I think, over at my sista's house the other day....
All veggie sushi w/the pickled ginger. My #2 fave! nm

I meant ginger ALE--my expander escaped my control!

I do not even have to have a ring but
when my hubby and I married in Las Vegas in 2000 (I had been married before, he hadn't), I had to let him know the minister would ask for a ring and therefore on the way to get married he and I stop in a shop and got a simple gold band for me (I didn't want him to feel embarrased at not having anything when asked) and you know what, I would not take anything for the marriage I have. We have been married 7 years now and I adore him. If you love him enough to marry him, you could care less really about a ring to impress. That is what your post sounds like to me. So many important things about a marriage and a ring is not high up there.
Wedding Ring ?
Do you have more than one? I have a wedding and engagment ring that DH gave me that I used to wear all the time, along with a diamond band my mom gave me years ago. Last summer my mom gave me her engagment ring that she really never wears anymore. Since then, I haven't been wearing the engagment ring DH gave me, I wear the plain gold band I got married in, along with my mom's two rings that she gave me.
DH says he doesn't mind as long as I wear the wedding band that we got married in. I guess it's a superstition thing with him. He understands that I miss my parents (especially my mom), since they live in Florida and we are in New York.
How do your SO's feel about stuff like this? Do they even have an opinion about what rings you wear or don't wear?
Yes he is - and he deserves a ring!
I am a New Englander and now very well liked right now as I was rooting for Peyton (hate greedy people - LOL)!
anyway - what a great game - glad I'm still alive after cheering for Peyton!
what do you think about choosing your own ring
My boyfriend who wants to eventually get married hates the fact that I want to choose my own ring. I also don't want a proposal like finding it in my baked potato or something. I'd like to be able to say this is the ring I want, buy it and when ready give it to me at a dinner with our parents or something like that. he is having a fit. and trying to make me feel like I'm nuts. Anything wrong with being able to choose your ring?
ring advice
My hubbie to be took me to a nice jeweler locally to have me sized (my finger that is) and I took the opportunity to talk to him about the rings that were displayed and why I like or disliked them. I like very simple (but elegant) jewelry. My hubbie listened and when my ring was presented to me I was shocked and elated as well as surprised. He had taken the info I had given him and had designed a ring for me that was practical yet gorgeous and I LOVED it.
So given him a litte guidance and let him do it his way you may be pleasantly surprised.
Note: I became pregnant with my first child and took my beautiful ring off and put it in my wallet and it somehow got lost. I still to this day weep whenever I think of my ring and he is working on replacing my ring and as much as I look forward to having a ring on my finger again however no ring will ever replace that ring in my heart or on my hand.
Give your hubbie a chance if you cann't trust him with picking out a ring can you trust him with your heart?????
Maybe get the ring stretched and
then coat the inside with clear nail polish.
Definitely Ring My Bell.....
it just goes on and on and on
Does this story ring true for you?
Talked to the mom of one of my daughter's friends on the way home from work yesterday. She told me her husband is going to federal prison for 8 years because he recieved some child porn via e-mail (didn't say who/where from) and reported the e-mails to his ISP. She says the ISP reported it to the FBI, and the FBI never tried to trace the e-mails back to the originator but arrested and prosecuted her husband for them being in his possession.
I've decided not to let my daughter go to their house again. The little girl is welcome at my house, but even if the story above is mostly true, what prompted him to be getting those type of e-mails and why is he even opening them? Would like to know if other moms agree or I am going overboard?
No, But I Only Wear an Engagement Ring....
It's not the biggest diamond in the world so it doesn't bother me. The whole "bare wrists" is another story, however.
The ring is symbolic of a union.
If you can't even agree on who should pick out the ring, you may want to rethink your union with this gent. There are going to be so many issues that will arise in your marriage that will need you to come together and make a decision. It starts now though. Some food for thought. I would rethink the whole reason for wanting to "get the ring". I would not focus too much on who picks it out. You may want to see a marriage counselor beforehand to see if you two are the "right fit". It doesn't sound too good starting out a union in this manner. JMO. Good luck.
Some questions for you--it may ring a bell
Do you get headaches when this happens? How long do these sweats last for and how often do you get them? What's your BP normally?
I have a reason for asking, I promise.
Another possibility is ring worm. (nm)
.
And didn't propose but gave a ring...nm
nm
I picked out my ring and absolutely regret it!
I really wish I would have had him do it all and we would have just slowed down. I love my husband to pieces, but it would have been nice to have a proposal and a surprise to see my ring for the first time. We kind of just agreed to get married and then went ring shopping together, but now I wish there had been more romance involved. Just let the boy pick it out - If he knows you well enough like he should if you plan on marrying him, then he'll surely pick out something you like.
It shouldn't be about wearing a ring, but more...see message
the way he acted toward you. My husband doesn't wear his wedding ring, just cos he doesn't feel like it, and I don't wear mine either. No big deal, but sounds like this guy was flirting with you and that's what I think was wrong.
A wedding ring doesn't matter. Either
the guy is true to his wife and family or not, wearing a ring does not make a difference.
I wear only my wedding band and engagement ring...sm
No other jewelry is on my fingers or wrists when I type.
A mother ring with my 3 children's birth stones:-)..nm
 - My husband is good to me!
I agree with that along with loud obnoxious ring tones.
Does "thou shalt not kill" ring any bells?
God created marriage for sex to be a blessing that would bring people together and create families, not sex outside of marriage so that babies could be optional.
My husband doesn't wear his wedding ring
or any jewelry for that matter. He's allergic to gold and can't even wear a watch. I suppose he could wear silver, but to me it's no big deal. He will wear it on special occasions but his hands swell up. I also know some men who don't wear it when they're at work if they run machinery, ect where it could get caught and get their fingers ripped off.
I don't wear my wedding band or my engagement ring. I took them off six years ago because...SM
My DH and I were having marital difficulties and he never and I mean NEVER wore his wedding from day one of marriage. He works on cars and stuff and claimed it got in his way, WHATEVER! Back then he was going out his buddies every once and while and still didn't put his ring on.
So we had a huge fight and I took my rings off and said until you put yours on, I'm not wearing mine. Well, we got marriage counseling and saved our marriage and now everything is fab, but he still doesn't wear his ring because in all the years he didn't wear it, he lost it! I wanted to buy him a new one, but cheapo that he is, he doesn't want us to spend the money. So I haven't put mine rings back on and I won't. It drives him nuts. He makes comments every now and then about men flirting with me cause I'm not wearing my rings. I just shrug and say "it's just a ring, you know I love only you," which is the line he used to give me.
I'm going to break him down one of these days and we'll go ring shopping! We have a great marriage now, but there's just this one little battle. He knows I'll win eventually. We're both just really stubborn.
Long story short, men act like things like wearing our wedding rings and engagement rings aren't a big deal to them, but really it is.
Yes, having him is kinda like having a
bright side. But, like he said tonight, he's leery of the car even though everything looks great. We're the kind of people who buy something after thinking it over for a long time, and even when we do that, it turns out to be a dud. This time, he bought it after crawling underneath, checking the engine, taking it for a ride, and even checking the trunk out, yet he's afraid, as I am, it will turn out to be a dud again.
We just have no luck. For instance, he plays a daily number every day. It's always off 1 digit, yet if he doesn't play, that very number he might have played would come up straight. See what I mean?
I've been with him since 1965 with a break of 2 years in between, so I know about being alone and single. You will find your Prince Charming (if there is such a thing anymore) someday. Just have to keep looking in the right places. I wish you luck and happiness.
I guess I'm just asking everyone to keep your fingers crossed for us that something will turn out right for a change.
You're being kinda mean
Funny because I am close to getting a divorce and was just thinking about this type of thing all day myself.
My son is 9-1/2 and he got an Easter basket from me and from his grandma today. My daughter is 7 - she turned 7 yesterday - had a big party and still got an Easter basket from me and her grandma today. They both had toys and candy in them - and muscial toothbrushes and new toothpaste ;-) from me. It doesn't matter at all if her birthday is near Easter - has nothing to do with it. And she is not too old!!!
Eating candy around holidays will not cause cavities - they come from poor dental hygiene and eating bad foods regularly. So, can't blame that on the Easter basket.
You are creating a feeling of competition that doesn't have to be there. If you love her, be glad for her that so many people love her. When I finally go through with my divorce, I want as many loving relationships as possible in my children's lives, whether I am comfortable with it or not, because I love them and I want them to be happy. Shouldn't you feel the same for your granddaughter?
Kinda reminds me of...
Dog the Bounty Hunter, with less cursing and more humor! No joke, first few times I watched Dog I was going "oh my gosh, Stephanie Plum!!" Books are getting so expensive these days I hesitate to buy anything new anymore, but by golly, I'll buy ANYTHING by Janet Evanovich, especially the Stephanie Plum series. I recommend them to anyone I meet who likes to read.
So...who is pulling for Ranger and who is pulling for Morelli? Joe's cool and all but I tell ya - Ranger has it going on! I really, really, really wanna see Stephanie hook up with him. I just have the feeling that Morelli is gonna cheat on her...just a matter of time. What do you all think?
my kinda desserts too...
yum!
Have to add...kinda funny to me (sm)
She also frequently calls and asks ME to come spend the weekend there too. They live an hour away. Whenever my husband(her son) is out of town she will call and say "I know you will be all alone over there and I thought you might like to come spend the weekend while he's gone." When I go, she wants to dictate everything we do, and a good portion of the time I end up sitting on the couch reading magazines. What I have recently started doing was saying, "No but you are welcome to come stay here." and she always says no, she has way too much to do!! Well,I do too! LOL!
that's kinda crazy.
she has been gone for a long time. I wonder if she's going to come back to help Jack with this mess he has created. She really is good for his character when he goes into bad things. Wonder how old Abby will be.
I'm kinda in the same boat
My 30+ year old stepson is supposed to be moving out today. Believe me, it won't last. He is the filthist person I have ever met and for his age is VERY naive and gullable. Won't be long before others see what I have been trying to tell them for years. He's lazy, selfish and totally irresponsible. It's just a matter of time before he gets a DUI. He totally disregards any advice or help my husband gives him and listens to his loser friends. If my husband lets him move back in.........that's the day I move out! I've got news for my husband....HE WILL BE PAYING MY RENT --- since he has the money to keep supporting his ADULT (and I say that loosely) children! Good riddins' to him! 
I need help --- kinda long ---
I am seriously in need of some help and I know it. I am so depressed that I cannot function anymore. My income is down so much that I am getting ready to be evicted from my rental (after losing my home earlier in the year), I am by myself all the time because I have to stay chained to this computer to try to get work as it comes in. I took an inhouse job, but figured out tonight that after gas money and buying clothes to wear to work that I am only making about $60 in 6 hours and I can do that in 2 if I am at home in front of this darn computer. However, my expenses are based on $200 a day!
I am crying all the time about everything. I can't help it. I have cried my way through 2 hours of typing tonight.. I am short tempered, the littlest things set me off.
I don't want to kill myself, but I don't think it would be a big loss "waking up dead".
I have no insurance so I cannot go to the doctor...
I have no relationship with my parents or my sisters anymore (have not spoken to any of them since Thanksgiving day). My children are driving me crazy. My son is irresponsible and out in the streets (he's 19) and I worry about what is going to happen to him and feel responsible for providing him a place to live even though he is not working.
My daughter works and has 2 kids and I feel bad because right now I cannot mentally, physically, or financially be a good "nana" to my grandbabies. Then, my daughter just called me tonight and told me that she is having a LEAP emergently and that the doctor said he is going to have to take so much it would be dangerous for her to ever have children so he is going to do a tubal while he is there... this just serves to remind me that I was supposed to be having paps every 3 months for precancer and so far it has been over 3 years because I lost my insurance and cannot afford to go to the doctor - or pay for the treatments required if I do go - and now if I got insurance, it would all be preexisting anyway...
My checking account is overdrawn by $600 because Dish network put a hold on $500 while waiting on their equipment to be returned and I did not know they were going to do that, so now the stuff that was already outstanding is bouncing and I will be probably be $1000 in the hole before it is all over...
I don't know if too much else can go wrong, but I can't handle too much more and I need some calgon or something -
sorry to unload, but ya'll are all I have right now...
What is going on with me? kinda long - sm
I feel anxious all the time about the most mundane things. This started about 8 months ago in earnest, but I have never been an easgoing person. I feel as though I am off the charts now, however. Example: Car renewal tags normally arrive in about 2 days from the time I send the check in. Four days have now passed. I am worried sick something is wrong and I will not get them back and the tags will expire. Hubby just rolled his eyes when I told him about this, and I do know that nothing is probably wrong and they are just behind this year, but I am dwelling on it and about another hundred totally mundane things right now and imaging the worst possible outcomes. It is like somebody turned on a switch 8 months ago and I cannot turn it off. Not been able to sleep without taking Ambien CR since this all began 8 months ago because I will wake up every 2 hours, be awake for 2 hours, etc., and I do not do well without my sleep. Started back on BCPs after 20 years because I thought it was perhaps hormone issues, but they have not helped much at all after 5 months. I have also had a complete physical with all kinds of biophysical testing and blood work and am in excellent health in every way. Not sure what else to do here and am really frustrated by the constant anxious state that is making me (and my poor husband!) miserable. Should I go see my PCP , a shrink, what? 
You're kinda mean.
Maybe she has a speech impediment or something. Maybe she's just not as intelligent as you are. Either way, correcting people and treating others like they're stupid isn't a good way to jack yourself up. Nice superiority complex you've got there, sweetie.
This one's kinda long
My cousin is a retired nurse. When she was old enough looking to be considered mature (ahem), there was a particular male patient on the floor who kept yanking IT out every time a female nurse came into his room. Nothing the nurses said to him seemed to matter - he just wouldn't stop. Finally they sent my cousin in to straight him out.
Nurse: You know, Mr. Overexposed, I hear you've been exposing yourself to the nurses. Just between me and you, you really ought not to do that. You know they're feeling so sorry for you.
Mr. Overexposed: They feel sorry for me? Why?
Nurse: Well, Mr. Overexposed, I wasn't going to say anything, but apparently they think it's so sad that you're so small down there...
Mr. Overexposed turned over a new fig-leaf instantaneously!
Kinda funny, I used to be...sm
I used to be horrible at spelling. I mean it was BAD! My mom actually considered getting me some special help becuase I couldn't spell quite simple words up through middle school. After that it started to get a little bit better (becuase we had Word with spellcheck lol). However, after I became an MT...that all went away. I'm still not the BEST speller in the world (use my spellcheck frequently, but that might just be from typing too fast), but I'm about 1000 times better!!! Well thats one good thing that came out of this job.
Sweet for me... but then again I'm a "sweet kinda gal" nm
nm
Feeling kinda blue . . .
I want to rent some funny movies to have a good laugh and try to cheer myself up - any recommendations greatly appreciated. TIA.
Kinda looks like my brain on Friday.

I need your opinion. Kinda gross.
Okay, we have had a problem with mice. H set some traps and we caught some but everytime I cooked something in the oven it stunk. So, I have not used the oven. H finally had time to remove the top part of the stove and found the problem. On top of the oven, underneath where the burners are, (that part) there were dead mice. He said babies. The insulation on top of the oven is gone. He doesn't know really what to do. He tried to get insulation from the hardware store, but was told that insulation that you use in houses won't do. He went to a place where they fix stoves and sell used ones and they say that if it smells like mice, they chunk them. I asked H if they were just saying that to sell us one of theirs. He said he did not know and he did not want think he can eat another meal cooked on that stove. We cannot really afford payments on a new one and he said not one of theirs is below $200 used. I told him well, maybe we should just rely on the crock pot and the microwave for a while. I can also can fry eggs on my waffle iron. Man, I have got cakes, bread, cookies that I so wanted to bake. H wanted to make a pizza but when I reminded him we did not have an oven, his face fell. It is missed terribly.
He did find some holes in the wall behind the stove where they (Mice) gnawed through the wall and is getting some foam as we speak, write...
What would you do? Right now, I am trying to think of things I can sell.
Kinda like asking if OJ killed Nicole or not NM

Snow Robin (LOL - i kinda like that name)

Yeah I kinda agree
At the last in-house job I had, there were only 2 of us (the lead MT and me) who could transcribe one particularly difficult ESL (Indian) physician. Not only did he have a thick accent, he also cleared his throat about every 3 words and had a low gravelly voice on top of it all. He was a transcriptionist's worst nightmare.
I really began to resent having 6 or 8 hours of him on a daily basis because it took a great deal of brain cells to decipher what he was saying and turn it into a clean report. It's not like the lead MT or I had some magical ability to translate him; it took work, and LOTS of it.
I often sat there with my burgeoning migraine from listening to him if the other MTs had even really TRIED to understand this guy at all, or if they gave it a half-hearted attempt and bailed. I found myself starting to really resent being stuck with this guy while the other MTs breezed through with the easy-to-understand dictators.
We were paid hourly as it was in-house, not on production, but seriously...If I could batter my brain with him for 6 to 8 hours a day, surely anyone else could have figured him out if they'd have put some effort into it.
If you can't handle the ESLs, many times I feel it's just better to find another field because they aren't going away anytime soon and those of us who can pretty much figure them out really don't want to do them for an entire shift. We like our share of brain relief, too.
need help with puppy - Kinda gross post
I just got a 4 month old min-pin about 2 or 3 weeks ago. She was eating Iams puppy food from the person I got her from. I don't like Iams foods, so I switched her over to Royal Canin puppy (dry stuff). Well somewhere along the lines she got the runs and at first I thought it was from switching food, but it has continued and started to have blood and mucus in it. So I called the vet thinking it may be worms or something wrong. Well I took in a "specimen" and they said there was nothing wrong. They told me to do the hamburger and rice and give pepto. Well I tried that, and it cleared up at first, but now it is back even on the hamburger and rice. I don't know what to do now. Any suggestions? 
A peck on the cheek is kinda intimate.
Unless he's family, European, or flaming gay (can I say that or is that not PC?) it's a total no-no. Especially for coworkers. A handshake or a wave should have sufficed. If not any of the above reasons, you can be rest assured it was his goal to leave you with a certain feeling. Be wary.
Yeah! Kinda like I was "fixin to slap Lil Ole Me" the other day?
GUFFAW!
