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"
In this case I think Martha is wrong -
and it drives me crazy!!
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.
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!!!!
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'll have to check that out. I love the Martha Stewart
crafts. Thanks for all the help.
No. I believe she should die in that prison bed.
We gave as much tolerance as possible by letting her live, which - in my opinion - would have solved this whole situation years ago.

She is free to execute herself if she wishes.

I don't care if she is different, saved, rehabilitated. It does not excuse her hideous crime. She is there because she put herself there.

JMHO
do you think that is what happens in prison?
uh...
if that was the real case, that would be worse, but that's NOT the case
Well when I worked at a prison...

The first week I worked there (in 1990) we had a lockdown because the prisoners were rioting and throwing their TVs off the catwalks onto the guards below.  The riot was because the warden had temporarily taken away their cable programming.  The whole block had to be tear gassed before they calmed down.


You really need to educate yourself on prisoner's conditions and rights - you don't have a realistic idea of what incarceration is like.


Jail/Prison

My BIL has been in and out of jail many, many times. He always says it's much better on the INSIDE than on the outside.


Let's see...they don't have to work, yet they get fed, a bed, clothing. They don't do their own laundry, yet they have clean clothes and linens. They get cable TV, take college classes, eat 3 squares a day, work out and get buffed up...so they can riot and overpower the guards, play cards, basketball, make phone calls...all at our expense!


Yeah, poor prisoners...they sure do have it tuff...


First castration without anesthetic...then prison.
But that's just me.
Joey, have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

You know how you can tell a GREAT movie?  When, even if you have the video with no commercial interruptions, if you're flickin' on regular 'ol TV and it's playing, you will stop and watch it...complete with editing for time and commercials.  Airplane is one of those movies I will stop my flick-fest and actually sit down to watch and laugh every single time.


Same goes for all the Leslie Nillson Naked Gun flicks and pretty much any parody.  Oh my gosh, LOVED Hot Shots with that older Bridges guy!  


....I'm feeling a liquored-up comedy movie marathon coming up real soon!


 


 


Hope he becomes someone's wife in prison. nm.

This is why I despised working in a prison
That ridiculous non-fraternization rule.  It also applied to non-guards (I was a clerk in the business office).  I was supposed to report to the warden if an ex-con even said hello passing by in a grocery store, I was supposed to be psychic and know who every ex-con in the state was, and if they happened to be an old friend I hadn't seen in 20 years I was supposed to snub them and run away, even if neither of us knew the other's situation until halfway through the conversation.  If I didn't fill out paperwork and send it to the warden to report every single innocuous contact, my job was in jeopardy.  IMO, there's a difference between becoming best friends with a con with friends still inside, and just living your freaking life in a community where there are bound to be cons here and there, and they happen to speak politely to you when you bump elbows!
Didnt want to say name because (sm)
Did not want it to come up in a search engine. Just think enough is enough for her family.
Anyone had a relationship with a person in jailr or prison?
Is it someone you knew or have you gotten to know them since they went to prison? Do you write them or visit?
no problem-prison inmates will kill him....
       
Does life in prison sound good to you? I would

Help. I have made my own prison. Please make suggestions sm
I will try to make this brief. I have marital problems, husband is gone all the time. I came to work at home again because I have no help with our children.  I need to be here if they are sick and be here when they get home from school.  But I have become once again socially isolated (I did this type of work for years and had a job outside of the home and enjoyed it, except for the fact that my children did not get enough attention, so I quit).  I do have friends but I don't see them or talk to them often enough anymore.  I used to walk several miles a day but never do that anymore, have gained weight, eat junk food, stay on the computer too long.  I am constantly busy.  I still do volunteer work with my children - Scouts, church, etc., but I am so overwhelmed.  My husband is almost never here.  It almost feels more like he comes to visit us sometimes than actually lives here, but I need his help financially and my son is very afraid for me to get a divorce (long story, but he is afraid he would have to live part-time with his dad, and they are not close).  I have debt that my husband doesn't know about and would be extremely angry over. I can't sleep because of this.  But he won't give me money for things we need, so I have often ended up charging things.  When I tell him I need more money he tells me things like, "turn off the cable TV" or don't go out to eat.  The thing is he spends lots and lots of money on entertaining himself. He makes 3 x as much as I do (or maybe 4 by now).  I have not been allowed to open his mail for years and we pretty much never talk.  I have started to allow things to pile up, mail around my desk, weight around my middle, clutter here and there.  I just feel like a big slug.  I am tired much of the time.  In reading this I sound depressed but I am already taking an antidepressant which I started a few years ago because of my marriage. I love my children so dearly but I am afraid of leaving and disrupting their lives.  If I left I would at least get my part of the equity in our home, etc., and maybe have a chance at having a life again.  Anyway, I know this is long and rambling and jumbled, but I just woke up, from another night of poor sleep.  Please suggest what you would do.  Thanks 
OJ SIMPSON GOT 15-16 YEARS IN STATE PRISON
for the Nevada crimes. I bet the Goldman's are jumping for joy.
You got me!! Even with the comments below, I didnt get it.

i didnt mean to come off harsh
i just dont understand and that is simply because i have never been a smoker
I dont think anyone should ever start because it is addictive and I am aware of that, but there are also other ways to quit. i just was saying it doesn't sound like you really care.... which is completely your choice.
As a civilized society, life in prison without parole

sorry, didnt mean to misspell Sasha!

Hurley said he DIDNT remember her
Your DH was right...he wanted to know why he didn't see her on the dock.  I totally have the same theory about Juliets sister's cancer.  I bet it never did come back and I cought the heart monitor strip thing and wondered about that as well!! 
Your credit is ruined because you didnt do anything about it

I didnt see last night's show but SM
I did see her the night before and thought she had that awful stretch-faced look of having too many surgeries. I don't understand how these celebrities think that looks good??!!!??! I like her too but jeez, enough is enough - at some point it's time to grow old gracefully and look normal!
Sorry, I didnt mean to offend you, but i'm tired of sm
being "punched in the gut" by the Christian majority in this country. Just please accept that not everyone thinks that the Bible is, well, the literal word of God.

Yes, I believe in Karma and I live a moral life; I just don't have that "personal relationship" with your savior.

Again, sorry to offend; I just see the world differently.
Didnt say that! I said if she's uneasy with travel to
the US? Mexico will still be thre (unfortunately), so just wait and go when the the crime rate drops a little bit. We Americans have had great big TARGETS on our backs for a long time now, or havent you noticed? So the statistics might not be on an American tourist's side there right now. And if I'm going to be the victim of a crime, I'd rather it were here than in
Mexico. Sure wouldn't want to end up in one of their jails, or even in one of their hospitals.

I think, though, that the main thing that was meant by the gov't. announcement was that college kids shouldn't be going down there at this particular time, especially the girls. Not a very good place to be naiive and inebriated, even in the best of times.
I don't know about that - guys like that usually suffer in prison - even most criminals hate chil
He would probably get what he deserves better in prison - from the other prisoners, as long as they don't let him out!!
I didnt really want parenting advice. You dont know
wanted to see if someone knew of a formula, like a percentage of income for xtras. Say what you want, but I will not be replying to any more of these posts attacking me and my family. Im sorry I even came here.

Well I got a notice from the IRS that I could expect my stimulus check by May 30 and I didnt
get it today.  I will get mine by mail.  I wonder how far off it comes from when they say it will come.
Yes I had a lipoma removed from my thigh and it came back because they didnt get all the roots out.
I still have it and dont plan on bothering this time.  It might be the size of 2 grapes or something. 
you didnt write that conversation. shame shame

Normally, this would be something I would try to stay out of, but (sm)
I would think if you called CPS and explained things just the way you did here, they might be able to do something to keep the aunt away, and parenting classes for the parents wouldn't hurt either.  I agree with the other poster who said if parents (or you) act first, anything the aunt did at a later time would be considered retaliation.  Handicapped parents many times can be the best parents, but it sounds like they do need some help with setting boundaries.
I think I would stay put if I were you. He knows where the
door is and can use it if he chooses.  Your first concern has to be your children and you should not have to find a place to live if he is the one who has the problem with you.  If there is no adultery involved here, don't rush into divorce.  Divorce is painful and can get nasty.  Sometimes just being away from each other can "calm the waters" and allow you to make a more objective decision. I speak from experience.  My husband and I divorced very hastily when we were very young after less than 2 years of marriage and then remarried, had 2 children, divorced very hastily again and then remarried again.  Had I just been a little less in a hurry I could have saved myself a hiney-load of money and a lot of heartache by just being away for a while and then making an objective decision.  Instead, I rushed into divorce and paid dearly. 
Stay away from CC....
If you have been having problems meeting the minimum payment on any CC, by all means don't go opening another credit card. Your credit report will be an absolute mess. I know it's 0% interest for one year, but read the fine print - there is usually a fee of some type, plus, can you pay it off in one year before the interest starts up? You never know what will happen in life and you may not be able to make the payments, the rate goes up, and you are in deep doo-doo.

Sallie Mae is high interest, your 401K is better. With 401K you are paying yourself back with interest. It's a no-brainer. No one gets your money but you. Is it possible to borrow again from a 401K if you already have a loan out? Having the money deducted automatically from your paycheck and put back into your 401K is the safest and smartest bet...as long as you have a job.

If you ABSOLUTELY have to have this other loan for $7,000 then the 401K should be your only choice. Can you do without the $7,000 and get back on track before getting deeper into debt - or at least until you pay off the existing credit card?

Why would you want to stay...
with someone who is, as you say, mean? If you are not happy, LEAVE! When you stay you are condoning his behavior. Some women want to be martyrs, others want to live a great life. There are great men out there; wallowing in self-pity does not get you one though.
