How to make (sm) It is easy

In Reply to: How do you make these? - fisherlady
I bought a throw blanket, about 5' x 4' or so, then bought same size blanket fabric (had to trim it some so they are both same size. You put them one on top of the other and make cuts in about 2" or so, and about 1 inch apart so that you have fringe on three sides, but leave the top alone. They you just start tying both blankets together. It is kind of trial and error depending on how thick your blanket material is so you need to tye one and see if you need to cut in deeper or not. That's it! You just tie knots in the fringe on the three sides and you are done. If I can find a pic of one I'll try to post it for you.

LOL!! Let me make this easy for you...sm
Lose the attitude, B! And I don't mean blondie. ;) The word I was referring to ends in an H, it also has an I in it too. Then throw in a T and a C and well, I think you are a smart girl. It will come to you. :)
Ham rollups are always a hit and easy to make.
Ham Rollups
Packaged boiled ham sliced
Cream cheese
Green onions
Lay a slice of ham on a cutting board, spread cream cheese on the ham slice but not all the way to the edge, place a prepared green onion on one end (short end) of the ham slice, roll it up and then slice it up and place the pieces on a serving tray.
I'd give them all IAMS......make it easy on yourself
.
Sure thing! I make them every year. Easy, fun, and yummy!

Easy to make, cant find recipe. Google. It has

At that rate, I could make in a week what I make

Not easy....
I have been there and it's not an easy decision to make. I did get a second opinion and that really helped me make my final decision. In my case it was possible cancer of the uterus. When I thought about being a single mom and how much I wanted to see my daughter grow up and after getting the second opinion I had the surgery. Although it was difficult to go through at the time it was really freeing. No more times of the month, no more Kotex supplies, etc. I have never regretted the decision since! Get a second opinion, it's worth the time and effort!
I think it would be easy, too, IF I had someone to do all the
chopping and measuring for me!!! LOL!!!
Does anyone have an easy way to keep a
dog's teeth clean if they resist brushing? I am concerned about her. I tried to brush them a few times and only was successful for part of the lower teeth. I know that if bacteria gets into the blood stream they can really become dangerously sick and even die from this. How about some items that can be bought at pet chain stores? We should have started her out early to get used to it. Any advice would be so appreciated. 
easy way
First of all, there IS no easy way!!
My ex-SIL had gastric bypass right at about the time I started WW.
Just a little background: I was always thin until I started working at home. Then I blew up. Ex-SIL and BIL had not seen me until the weight gain, so it was somewhat of a shock.
Anyhow, we were in the process of embarking on our respective means of weight loss, and ex-BIL said to me, "At least you're doing it the hard way." I told him, without hesitation, that his wife was doing it the hard way. Dang!! She's the one getting cut open!!
I know it was his way of encouraging me because he's nice that way, but it bothers me that people think surgery and accepting the risks involved is easy in any way, shape, or form.
Man, I'm glad you can do the Tobasco. I don't think I would live without it LOL ;-)
Wish you the best!
very easy -
all I do when I cook salmon is add an egg and some flour and fry it up - don't add too much flour or it will be dry and taste flour, just enough so that it will stick together.
Here's an easy one
I find hor'dourves are always nice. Have them before and then if anyone stays after dinner you can pull them back out later or the next day for snacks.
Little smokie sausages, wrap each in 1/2 piece of bacon secured with a toothpick, and roll in brown sugar. Then bake in the oven until the bacon is done. They are really yummy and easy. line the cookie sheet with foil for easy cleanup cause the sugar can be messy.
My mom also used to take cream cheese and spread it on a platter, top with a layer of cocktail sauce, and then crab meat (real or imitation). Serve with crackers.
Rye bread is fantastic with dill dip. If you can find a round loaf of rye bread and hallow out the center and put the dip in the middle. Then the center part can be chopped up and placed around the outside for dipping. Later people can pull apart from the round "bowl" of bread to dip. Little to no clean up here.
My mom used to do hor'dourves instead of dinner and then just make a ham and rolls in case anyone didn't have dinner yet. I'll keep thinking. I'm sure I can remember a few more easy ones that everyone always seemed to love.
An easy gift would be
to just get her a gift card to the mall in your area at the service desk, and she could use it at any of the stores there in the mall.
If you want to get a gift, gift, do you know any of her interests?
I know this will not be easy to read but I believe
we are responsible for how others 'treat' us because we have allowed it.... not easy to accept - I know - because have been through this myself and it is hard to swallow but if you think about it - it does make sense. When others disrespect us, either by not treating us the same as we treat them or by doing other unacceptable things and we continue to allow them to do this w/o confronting - they will continue to do so and in order to stop you need to stop allowing it and stop accepting it - and realize you are worthy of more. It's a hard step to take and a long road to haul but it can be done. So sorry! Trust me - have been there myself and slip back every so often but it is worth it to change!
Very easy for me- I have an account
with 1 of the major shopping channels, have my television in my work room, sometimes watching a particular show and get the number, call up the site and order. It really does not take that long and I still get 2000-3000 or over a day, no sweat.
Just take it slow and easy
Don't rush into anything, and don't let him pressure you into moving faster than you are comfortable with. After all, if you do get together, hopefully you will have a lot of happy years ahead of you. There's no need to rush things in the beginning.
I have been married for a long time to the same man (never divorced) but if we had taken more time in the beginning, we probably never would have gotten married. Outside circumstances kind of put us in a "do or die" position.
We had a lot of unhappy years, especially in the beginning. So the one thing I always advise anyone who is contemplating marriage and/or a serious relationship is take your time.
And good luck!
easy button sm
I gave a gift to a home for troubled kids, attached a gift card to an easy button. Still getting thank you's. Just added a simple touch to money card which I don't like to give, but in this case it worked well, as kids are older, teenage troubled kids.
Sure it's easy to get addicted
to food when you eat junk food, candy, cakes, McDonalds, ice cream, etc. I've never seen an obese person who eats healthy. If you are obese, you too are taking advantage of the healthcare system. What does it matter to you about my health...I don't worry or ridicule obese people. Comes down to it's none of your business. I do not smoke on the streets, in front of children, or people who have health problems. When I see an obese person stuff their face with crap and they weight 300 pounds, I find that disgusting. They too are hurting themselves. All addictions are the same no matter what even though you are too opinionated to see that!!
What I do a lot and is super easy
Is just take a bag of frozen vegetables, usually whatever I have. Broccoli/caul/carrots, broc/caul... or those new steam in the bag veggies. I just cook up some kind of whole wheat pasta, whatever I have, and then throw it together with the veggies. Sometimes I add some kind of pasta sauce or even just sprinkle with parmesan. If it's one of those packages of veggies that's already seasoned, that's really good too. I don't feel like pasta, I'll use rice instead. Quick and easy and you don't feel deprived because of all those veggies.
Easy but good
In a blender: 1 lg can whole tomatoes, 1-3 serrano peppers (sometimes even 1 is very hot, just depends on peppers at the time), Black pepper, Garlic Salt, Salt, and just a little Comino or Cumin (I have been told they are the same and I have tried them side by side and can't tell the difference.) Blend and season to taste. It will take more salt than you might think and just add a little by little of ingredients until you get it just like you like it. My friends have always had to make a couple before getting it seasoned just right. My bunco group requires this every month.
Or this Pico Salsa: 4-6 tomatoes diced, 1 onion diced, 3-6 serrano peppers diced very small, cilantro chopped added to your taste, and 1 fresh lime squeezed for juice. Season with Black Pepper, Salt, Garlic Salt all to taste and about 4 shakes of Worchestershire sauce. This is great pico for eating with chips or added with many dishes. My family prefers this at every gathering.
This is all with Texas preferred heat, so you may want to cut down on the peppers and it all depends on how hot the peppers are that day. The sauce and pico will get hotter over night, so be careful. If your pico gets too hot, try adding tomatoes to cool it off. Hot sauce requires adding more whole tomatoes to cool off but then you have to adjust your seasonings all over again.
It would be easy in my house. He would tell me to never cut

How old do they have to be to peel easy?
Another thing I've learned is to cool them down as fast as possible makes them easier to peel. If you just let them cool down on their own, without running cold water over them, they're harder to peel.
Easy Fudge
Ingredients
3 cups (18 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips (or milk-chocolate chips)
1 (14-ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT evaporated milk)
Dash salt
1/2 to 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
In heavy saucepan, over low heat, melt chocolate chips with EAGLE BRAND® and salt. Remove from heat; stir in nuts (optional) and vanilla. Spread evenly into wax paper lined 8- or 9-inch square pan.
Chill 2 hours or until firm. Turn fudge onto cutting board, peel off paper and cut into squares. Store leftovers covered in refrigerator.
Notes: OTHER GREAT FUDGE FLAVORS: Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Glazed Fudge: Proceed as above but stir in 3/4 cup peanut butter chips in place of nuts. Glaze: Melt 1/2 cup peanut butter chips with 1/2 cup whipping cream; stir until thick and smooth. Spread over chilled fudge.
Marshmallow Fudge: Proceed as above but omit nuts and add 2 tablespoons butter to mixture; fold in 2 cups miniature marshmallows.
Easy for men to decide
Some guys are good dads - willing to pitch in and help take care of the child's needs, and give it plenty of time and attention.
There are quite a few guys out there that like the IDEA of a child - as long as it doesn't cramp their style. This means it all devolves upon the mother - care of the child 24/7, criticism from him and his family if you aren't doing it their way, but of course any bragging rights are all theirs.
Then there are the demands of academia - when your child gets sent home with a backpack full of paperwork to review on a nightly basis, whose job will that be?
Another thought is the possibility of divorce down the road - what happens then? Quite a few dads who let mom do all the work suddenly become superdad when the thought of child support comes along, and they will do anything to win custody so that YOU have to pay THEM. Even if you win custody, the head games with visitation schedules, daddy's new girlfriend pushing her way into the picture, etc. never end.
Be careful. Having a baby to stroke a man's ego can get very messy very fast. Its a huge responsibility and too often the mother does all the work and the father takes all the credit. Take the worst case scenarios into consideration before you decide.
We made it easy.
Decided that we did not need to buy gifts. We had a wonderful dinner together and enjoyed the day.
So, to answer your question -- did not use credit cards .. or cash for that matter!
Is godaddy.com. It's so easy to use...sm
I had absolutely NO clue how to create a web site and used this. It is very user friendly, their IT staff is always on call 7 days a week/24 hours a day and give great advice on how to do things when you get stuck, and their prices are very good, too. Good luck!
It's so easy to judge...
people when you think you have all the answers. Isn't it? What happens when one hits rock bottom? I'm too old to stroll out and "just get another job". I feel totally worthless and alone. I am at the point of considering suicide.
They're easy to use!
My mom is hopeless when it comes to technology, but she is able to use her Jitterbug phone!
Easy to get jaded
I suppose if the kids grow up with it, it doesn't seem like a big deal to them and if they are taught right from wrong, they may still experiment with stuff but will hopefully make the right choice. Seeing all these school shooting, etc., it's something I can't imagine going thru when I went to school. The biggest thing we had was "speed" and Marijuana. No cocaine, no guns, no AIDS.
It's nice to know there are kids like my niece and nephew. My 19 YO nephew got a full scholarship to Ohio State and he's going for engineering. My 11 year old niece gets straight A's.
Easy picture frame
A picture frame would be an easy craft for them to make. If you could take a picture of each student.
Let them make a frame out of popsicle sticks, 4 or 8, stacking them logcabin style, then they can glue the candy hearts on it, the ones that say "I love you" and such. Glue the picture to a piece of posterboard and then the frame to the posterboard. You can put a magnetic strip on the back and they can give it to thier parents...or thier valentine. Just an idea.
The quick and easy way to find out is to do it - sm
Go get one and fill it up, count them and then give away all the chocolate. Or you could be cheap about it, go into Wal-Mart or wherever with the PM box, fill it up with the bags of Kisses and see how many bags fit, and figure it out using the servings per bag, adding a little extra of course since your test run was in bags. Good luck.
cheap and easy meals?
What are your favorite quick and cheap family meals? I have to bring my grocery budget down. I need some ideas for meals that can be made for about $10. My family is getting tired of spaghetti, chili, pork barbecue sandwiches and sloppy joes. What do YOU whip together on the cheap? I'm all ears.
casserole - easy and cheap
Chicken casserole
3-4 boneless chicken breasts
8 oz sliced mushrooms
1 C shredded swiss cheese or mozzarella
1 1/2 C stuffing (Stove Top in can)
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 can of white wine or chicken broth
1 stick butter
Cut up boneless chicken in bites. layer in 9 x 13 pan. top with sliced mushrooms, then shredded swiss cheese. mix together soup and wine/broth and pour over top.
sprinkle stuffing over everything. pour melted butter over and bake at 350 for about 45 minutes
Easy to say but in reality husbands do not
understand everytime a baby comes in, some can feel threatened by the new one, some can be jealous. You should never ignore your hubby just to give attention to your child. Make sure both have what each needs. One day the child will be grown and out and you might (just minght)be stuck with the same man - although now days not a sure thing!
Yes, it is soft and scratches easy because...sm
bamboo is not really a wood, it is a grass turned into a *wood* - it scratches easily (kitty litter can scratch it) and so it's *shoes off* in my house. *laughs* I studied woods for 5 years before I made my choice, knowing all about it scratching easy but since my kids are ALL GROWN UP....no problem here. *S*
Yes, the ending of life is never easy but....
those animals are getting the best of care during their time here on earth and to me, that says a lot about the character of these people who are proud to show off their animals. The small farmer really does care for their animals and they treat them incredibly well...usually the best feed, veterinary care, and really the best quality of life--they are allowed to graze and get sunlight on their faces. It's the large-scale farming (aka factory farms) where the animals are suffering and living in horrible conditions. That's nasty stuff right there.
I'm with you though. If I had to eat my animals, I'd be a vegetarian...which is why I have a 4-year-old pet "bacon" pig and get laughed at by the locals on a daily basis. ;-)
It's easy, just have to create a profile...
And, imagine seeing the pagan posts replying to the christian posts and vice versa; well, that would just be priceless. lol
Are they easy to talk to about such things? If not,...
you and your husband may need to have a sit down with them about this. You are entitled to your privacy and they should realize this. I live in a rural area so always have the doors locked since I am alone all day. Good luck!
Anyone know of any easy Christmas stocking..
patterns or ornaments to make? I am VERY craft challenged and would like to make my grandkids something for Christmas (so one day they can say Grandma made me this!). TIA
I liked how easy it was but it always made my wrinkles
it's too drying
Yes, holding it at a young age is really easy-
but as you age the problem of incontinence rears its ugly head. As a young woman, no problem but now, well lets just say I have an appt with the urologist for this Friday.
EASY beef casserole
Use 2 pkg. of Jiffy cornbread mix and mix according to directions. If you don't have that in your area, it is a 'sweet' cornbread mix. Brown 1-1/2 pounds of g. beef and mix in bowl with some mild salsa or 14 oz. can tomatoes, chopped, and a can of pinto beans. Pour that in your casserole dish and then cover with the cornbread mix. My 3 year old twins love it. If you just use the tomatoes you could add some chopped onion to the beef when you brown it. Just bake it for about 20 minutes or until the cornbread turns golden brown. this is great with a salad or green beans
I have an eye roast recipe that's easy
Eye Round Roast (average size)
Sauce:
1 tbl crushed garlic (or a few cloves if you use fresh)
1/4 c veg oil
1/4 c of soy sauce
2 tbl of vinegar
1/4 c of honey (i've also used brown sugar, but that burns easy)
1 tsp of ginger
Mix the sauce and pour it over the roast. I've also seared the roast before adding the sauce and then cook in oven around 350 or you can do this in a slow cooker.
The sauce is tasty and I think the vinegar tenderizes the meat. I'll slice it down when it's down and add the slices back to the sauce.
and Christianity is an easy life? sm
And no, I would never disown a child of mine, any more than my Father in heaven would never disown me.
Change your own oil. This is so easy whether your a guy or a girl
It’ll typically cost you $10 to change it, and you won’t have to wait at the mechanic for a few hours.

Easy for you to say if you can have children naturally..sm
My hubs and I tried for 2 years and found out I have blocked tubes and scar tissue so bad that surgery would not help it. After trying to adopt 2 children and burning through 12k, our hearts were broken when the children were sent back to their biological mothers. We then tried in vitro and it worked. It is easy for you to say IVF is selfish because you can probably conceive children the "normal" way. Until you experience this, you can't say that it is selfish to want to have a child.
Take it easy! How many languages do you speak? ..sm
Give some respect to people who are bilingual and even trilingual.
MTing is probabaly the only thing you can do!
The OP complained only about the position of the month and day in the date, geez!
Easy Chicken and Dumplings
Cut up chicken into bitesize pieces, brown in 2 T butter. Add in 4-6 cups of water. Add salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Turn down to simmer. At this stage I also add about 1/2 c. shredded carrots. Take 2-3 cans of biscuits, cut each one into thirds, drop each piece into simmering water. Take either a package of chicken gravy or make your own with a little bit of flour, chicken bouillon and water or chicken broth, make a paste and pour into simmering water. Let simmer for about 30-40 minutes until biscuits are cooked. This is delicious and makes for great leftovers!!
How easy would it be for you to give up meat?
All forms of meat - beef, pork, chicken, venison....and anything else I'm missing.
It wouldn't be too hard for me.
Very easy. It is all a habit. My daughter
becamew a vegetarian and I followed.
Meat is good for its protein and its vitamin B12, etc...
But you can get these also from other food sources.
Plant protein is much healthier than animal protein.
Actually, all animal products are not good. They are all high in cholesterol and fat, the bad one, saturated fat. Even lean meat contains saturated fat, bad, bad.
On top of it, meat makes the blood and body acidic, that's also not good.
Furthermore, nowadays HORMONES are added to the animal fooder, especially estrogen, this makes the animals fatter and it makes also us fat.
After considering all this, I believed my daughter and converted to a vegetarian.
Amen.
