Martha Stewart
Another favorite of mine but I never get to watch or record her anymore because she is on the same time as my Y&R and...well...that out ranks Martha. I used to watch Martha so much my mom started calling me Martha and my hubs Stewart. LOL
Today I would like to see Martha Stewart
wtih cleaning supplies in hand. After that, John Cusack. Still crazy for him after all these years. Most romatic scene ever in a movie....Holding the boombox over his head in "Say Anything"
Martha Stewart's recipe
I'm sure you can look it up on her website. I have her cookbook and have been using her recipe for years! It's not fool proof, as I have found that fresh eggs don't peel as well but do peel a little better if I use her method and I NEVER get that green ring or the dot of slimy uncooked egg when I use her recipe. It's very simple too. I wish I knew it exactly from memory but I don't - the closest that I can come is this (though if you want to try it I would pull her recipe and not use mine from memory lol)
Start eggs in cold water. Put on the stove. Bring to a boil. Heavily salt the water (1-2 tablespoons for a normal sized 1 quart sauce pan). Cook 7 minutes. Turn heat off and let stand for 5 minutes. Place into ice water. Peel under running water. Then you can store them peeled with wet paper towel in a zip top baggie or platic tightly covered dish for a few days if needed.
I'm 30 and have the nickname of Martha Stewart
if that tells you anything. Yes, I am a minority among people my age but I am also more mature and at a different place in life than most of the people I know at my age. Married, kids, etc. I love to sew, when I have time. I cook from scratch. I make my child's halloween costume. Now expecting a baby and making my own burp clothes, fitted sheets, receiving blankets, and cloth wipes. It's a small part of society but there are still some of us out there! :) I learned these skills mainly from other women in my life during childhood but also in girl scouts. home ec was a very small piece of it for me.
Epicurious.com, Rachel Ray, Martha Stewart, etc. sm
Google away, I will look up some recipes but sometimes the latest are good also and "tested," I have tried some oldies which did not turn out well, be sure they are "tested" first. Get back to you if I can find some I pre-tested. Good idea, love home baked or home made items, shows you care!
I saw this on Martha Stewart....you pour salt into a paper bag
put the flower head first into the bag upside down, twist the top sorta so salt doesnt fall out and shake it around like shake-n-bake. it breaks up the dust and knocks it off..never have tried it myself though..but sounds like it might work..martha stewart style.
Martha Stewart did it on her show a couple years ago.
I wrote the directions down and never got to them. I remember you soak them and dry them and then sand them lots - I think acrylic paint and glaze. There are lots of local craft shows where I live and there are a couple gals that do them - bird houses, bowls, one does the neatest bright red apple ones. Just looks so neat and think it would be fun. SO - you might try doing a Google on Martha Stewart/gourds or something like that. Good luck.
I love having a Mary Spirit in a Martha World
I am reading the second book it is called having a Mary Spirit, love it!!!!
I'll check it out
Thanks Nana
Thanks, I'll mention it on my next check...
It's not really bothering me, per se, other than worrying a little about the ice wearing on my teeth, but I was curious to see what others thought. (Feeling gabby today!) :)
Thanks!
you'll get a paper check
if you didn't get and refund and sent them money, the rebate won't be direct deposited, a paper check will be sent.
My 'stimulus' check (which I'll believe I'm
is going not to buy gas or anything else, but to pay down credit-card debt. I'm glad I work at home because I don't need new clothes (haha... or ANY clothes, for that matter!), and only use the car for a once-a-week trip to the market. I don't use the heat except on the coldest of winter days, and forego air-conditioning in summer. I use only one lamp at a time, and don't turn on the porch or sidewalk light at night. I wonder how 'Dubya' thinks a one-time payment is by any stretch of the imagination a 'stimulus'. That would only be true if we got one every month - for life.
Not sure about that. I'll have to check. I just know the gum in the front is very
bad and you can see on my teeth where it should be. It is about 1/4 inch below that, honestly. My nephew last night ordered Ultra soft toothbrushes on Amazon.com. Like they told me at the dentist, this is a hereditary condition as well, and my dad had it and lost all his teeth when he was a young man.
you'll love it!
Let me know how much fun you had!
You'll love it
I just finished watching the season finale. Good scary stuff.
LOL! Love it! Thanks. I'll be using this on my 3 sons! nm

I love Craiglist... also check out Freecycle
freecycle.org
You can search there to see if there is a freecyle mailing list for your area. They are all over the place. I live near Madison, WI, and we have a very large freecyle list. You can post things you want to give away and also post for something you may be looking for. It's great. It keeps things out of the landfills, and it really does show that what is one person's trash is another person's treasure.
I'll join you!! I agree.made me cry too, love this stuff!

I use Mrs. Stewart's bluing. . sm
It is the same stuff that some older women put on their gray hair and sometimes if they use too much, it comes out blue. I have a well also with a lot of sulfur and iron, so I use bleach. (I also use about a tablespoon of bleach with my towels because nothing else will get the odor out. I even tried vinegar.) I think when you use bleach on whites, it takes something out of the fabric and causes it to become gray or yellow. The bluing puts it back into the fabric. I buy it by the fabric softener at my grocery store. I think I paid $3 for it and it will last a long time. Hope that helps!
In this case I think Martha is wrong -
and it drives me crazy!!
Tom Hanks, and we'd watch Jimmy Stewart movies together.

Martha didnt know how to stay out of prison. Why

Good advice was given here. Suggest vet check-up for kitty needs vet check. sm
I've had 2 females over the years who developed stones/crystals in urine or UTIs. Both of them started spraying inappropriately. Never had a female spray inappropriately other than in these instances. They go into spasm and can't help themselves. If it is a urinary problem, eventually you may see slight pink-tinged spray if it gets that far untreated due to the irritation from constantly trying to pee. One more thought is if the kitty is not sick, maybe the other cat won't let her use the litter box for some reason. Maybe set up another box for her.
thanks! :) I'll see if he'll ask some female friends SM
Thank you everyone! It has been great reading all of your responses! Goodnight!! "See" you all tomorrow!
Hugs,
Chickadee
I LOVE love love shallots! I use them in everything that calls for an onion and/or garlic. Mmmmmm. n

American Idol - Love, love, love Adam!!!

She's sweet. I think she's gorgeous. Love her hair. Love her sm
smile. I wish I looked that great! I don't even come close, so who am I do judge? I admire beauty greatly in other women...I envy them!
sweet....love the heart charm, he's got love.

God bless you on your path, all love begins with self-love, so you are really on your way.....sm
We should have less time putting needless labels on things, paying attention to dividing lines, and pratice more love, understanding, and humiility....we will all have things to answer for, no one is perfect, but I believe we are all precious and loved by the Lord, who knows all hearts, and has infinitely more compassion and mercy than ANY of us can comprehend. Be happy and take care of yourself, sexuality is such a small part of who we are in this world, but you have to be happy and at peace.
I love the animal channel, really love it and
my sweetie and I both watch but I absolutely, even if I know nature and the balance of, want to see small animals being killed and eaten and so forth. I know it happens but I either change the station or pick up the paper and read or find another way so I don’t watch. Also watch Discovery, love animals and love those shows!
I love you! hahaha I love your response! You can come over here sm
and kick my butt the next time I "allow" my husband to make me feel crap for whatever reason - which there seems to be many - he wouldn't complain if I made more money than him because his lazy behind wants to stay home and do nothing all day except to play golf. He tells me all the time, "when are you going to own your MT business so I can golf all day."
But, he is very mean, also. He hurts my feelings constantly and doesn't even care. He makes me drive around in his truck with bald tires and I don't like doing that for fear of a blow out and he'll just tell me, "well, don't go anywhere then." We have the money in the bank to get new tires, but he won't get them.
I love your comment, though!
And for all of you who will say, "well, leave the jerk!" It isn't that easy. We have 3 boys and I would be homeless. I only make 300 every 2 weeks MTing. We have a lovely home with a lot of space and besides him living here, the kids and I LOVE it and love each other so much.
Well, I LOVE a challenge too, Would love to debate this one day with you! sm
haha
Seriously, I was a staunch atheist for 20+ years. It's funny, though. I, too, believe that we are all electrical energies and that energy doesn't "die" and so, theoretically, where does your "electricity" go when you die, i.e., your spirit? I believe that "energy" within us is our spirit life - and that must go somewhere, right? It doesn't just go into the groun - which is what I thought for so long.
Anyways, when I learned about our "energy" and how it must go somewhere, I was really testing the waters of Christianity up to that point. After hearing about that, I was convinced that there must be an afterlife. I believe we go either of 2 places.
Anyways, I love ALL people of all religions, regardless of what I "think" or "believe." I don't think any less of you because of your beliefs! If I were to believe in a God who forgave me and loved me in my mut and mire, who am I to judge and criticize those who think differently of me?
I've always liked you no matter what your philosophy on life was....
Love people who love dogs.

I love the dressing and I love lemon pie..sm
My mom's lemon pie that is. I also love this dessert called Texas Delight or some people call it different things but is is layers of chocolate pudding and cream cheese and whipped cream. The food is my favorite part besides the watching my son open presents on x-mas.
Young love/older love
I think it has a lot to do with your age and his. I married hubby at age 59 and he was 49. Best thing I ever did but say if you are 30 and he is 20, hmmm in that case might not be so workable. What are the ages here?
Give her love, love, love and if she...
doesn't want medicine - don't force it. Does she like to be stroked or does she like her belly rubbed? You better than anyone else know how to make her feel loved. Give her that. If her times comes before Monday, all the better for you and her. She'll die peacefully in her loving home. But, if not, be prepared to give her the last loving gesture you can - if it's time to, than let her go.
I had to put my 13 year old Lab down two months ago. It is one of the hardest things to do. But, you'll know when it's time. My dog, Shadow, told me he was done, tired, beat. He sent me the message quite clearly. But, still I waited, not for him but for me! Finally I "heard: him and did what needed to be done. I sobbed for hours and then just suddenly stopped, I realized I was crying for me - not for him! He had had a wonderful loving home with "mom and dad and brother". He was old and tired and wanted to rest. He deserved that rest! So, it's done. Yeah, I'm still sad. But I know that it was the right thing to do. And, yeah, call me nuts if you want - I know that when it's my time that Shadow will come running, knock me over, sit down on my chest and lick me silly!
Now, I'll go and give my cat lots of love and remember the fun I had with Shadow. My thoughts are with you - make the best of the time you have with your loved one's, be them human or furry! My thoughts are with you.
You might want to check out the
New MT/Student board. There are lots of posts there that would probably interest you like which schools are good and those sorts of things. It is tough to get started unless you work on-site or are willing to take a cut in pay at first. Good luck to you and congrats on the new baby.
Well, what do you know?? Check this out
Maybe this would work with candles too!?!?

Hmm...may have to check into that
is it very expensive (if you don't mind me asking) I'll have to go check out their website. Thanks for the info!
Check-N-Go
Be very careful with those things. I'm in Florida and have used Check-n-Go here locally. Not sure if they have an online site, but they are very reputable.
You should check with....sm
the manufacturer of your laminate to see what they recommend.
Good luck with the dog on the rug. My sister just put in hardwood floors and their also 10-year-old Pomeranian is having a horrible time trying to walk on it.
I need to check that out
I've heard of them, actually on this board, I think. I checked them out at the time but didn't do any more than that. Maybe it's time to get one and do a pre-emptive cleansing the moment I feel symptoms coming on again.
Thanks!
Um, yes but would check that out thoroughly
a couple of neighborhoods in NJ were named this year, including where I grew up, and what a joke!
One is a town they were recently calling the *cancer cluster* and investigating due to the chemical plants and extremely high cancer rates.
It is also where they built million dollar homes smack in the middle of normal moderate priced homes and then also not too far away from the bunch of low income housing/projects they added over the years.
Well when a couple of these million dollar couples went to the public schools for the first time, they cried! Actually cried. Guess they didn't do their *homework* (no pun intended) before buying. It's been said they can't afford private school because the big deals strapped themselves just to live there. Oh well.
As for me, I'd never buy a house there and I moved away!
My family and friends are convinced the magazine was paid off or maybe somebody knows somebody, like everything else. Wouldn't doubt it. : )
Thank you...I will check it out!! nm

I had to check the
board to hear about Misha's dog. As far as the troll, ignore it and maybe it will go away LOL.

My friend's husband is in the hospital. He went into the ER at 7:00 Sunday night with a blood sugar of 600! At midnight, the ER clerk gave my friend a bill for $9000. I have never heard of them giving you a bill so fast! At 4:30 a.m., he went into the ICU. P.S. He is doing better, and as far as I know, no more bills yet...

It does cost. I think I paid $40 for 1 year, but it covers every subject and has all kinds of worksheets to print out.
