If you really want a side business, keep chickens or bees. People like to buy organic food.

Honey!
I am not sure why, but honey always helps when I get that really tight and irritated feeling in my throat. Even just taking a teaspoon full before I go to bed helps, especially for when you have the irritating postnasal drip. And its great for kids who get that tickly cough in the middle of the night. Give it a try!
Thank you both. I am going to get some honey (sm)
I have not been tested for mono but I have been around 2 children very recently who were diagnosed with mono. I told the doc this but I have had mono in the past so she said that probably wasn't the problem now. I definitely trying the honey and pepper. I would stick a bar of soap down my throat right now if I thought it would help...lol. thank you
You're not alone honey . . .
Being a wife and mom is a labor of love. Women give so much of themselves. The kids probably won't get it until they have children of their own and experience the same thing. It would be nice to feel appreciated now and then, a little thought behind the gift is all you're asking. Crawl back into bed if you want, or how about a hot bath and a glass of wine. Try to do something nice for yourself. I know it's not the same but what can we do? Chin up.
I have heard this too, but it has to be honey - sm
made in your local area, that way it has the pollen, etc. from your area to help your allergies. My neighbor just started doing this about 2 weeks ago and swears it is working. I am thinking about trying it too (cannot hurt) as my allergies (pollen, dust, mold) are a lot worse this year though the worst is over for me now.
Oh honey, I am a woman...
just can do things on my own...have a large home too and still manage to have lots of time, a clean house and work 10 hour days. I can easily afford a housekeeper too but why when I am perfectly capable myself. DH gets to come home to a home cooked meal every night, a very clean home and a happy wife who does not complain! Not all men want simpering, helpless women.
You could try mixing it with honey or
adding a bit of juice to it.
Honey, she is not MY daughter....
she is a child that I gave up for adoption who is someone else's true daughter. I have stated that I would be willing to meet her face to face, but just because I don't have the warm fuzzies you think I should have about meeting her doesn't make me hateful. Do you feel that all of us who gave children up for adoption are supposed to want a relationship with them? That is an irrational way of thinking, as far as I'm concerned. Am I curious, yes; am I regretful, no; do I harbor bitterness towards her, no. That being said, I am not so curious that it would haunt me to the end if I never met her.
Honey, you wish you had it as good as me!! :)
Thank goodness I'm not one of you who eeks out a liviing typing fingers to the bone, worrying about bills, etc. Have a good life and know it! Thanks though for your concern!
Merry Christmas to all!
Thanks honey! We would be fine without my job thanks
to living right and not beyond one's means. And BTW, bon bons are fattening, you won't catch this MT with seat spread! Well, this has been fun, but my work day is done and Christmas vacation has begun! So, toodles to you all. Very Merry Christmas!
Did you try the pure honey?

I think the honey is starting to help....at least (sm)
it is temporarily soothing. Thank you all for your suggestions
Honey, I feel your pain..
We have 5 friggin kids..THREE of which are teenagers and the oldest is almost 26 but going to college full-time so I have footing that bill along with all of his other bills he has acquired as an adult..Then, we have the almost 20-year-old daughter who is unable or just doesn't want to work..so we took her back out of the homeless spectrum and got her a home..which we are footing the bill for...Thus, is the reason mom has to work 2 FT jobs..So, my answer to our kids thinking they are EVER moving back home when we boot them out is this...We're buying a motor home when they're gone. On the back it will be named "Kid's Inheritance." Then, as we pull out of the driveway, and if we see them in the rearview mirror, we're hitting the gas!!! and it's like this.."kids, if you can catch us, you can move in, but we won't be doing the speed limit." How's that !!! As you know, as a parent, you have to spend your time laughing or you will just start bawling uncontrollably until they come haul you away.
I just read that someone mixes it with honey in a cup of s/m
hot water twice a day. She cannot believe the difference it has made overall, and NO hot flashes!! It seems too good to be true. I will try the tablets first and if that does not work I will try the "tea" mixture. Thanks!
Not judging honey, believe me, I speak...
my mind and you could tell if I was judging others. This place is teeming with unhappy, whining, complaining women (just look at some of the posts all over this site) and that is not a judgement, it is fact. As far as being in the same situation as others one day, if you read any of my posts you would see that I have been there, done that and changed my ways. Should something happen, we have learned to save money, have enough put away to last a year and not have to touch any retirement, etc. That took a lot of determination and hard work on our part and we are proud of it.
I am get a good chuckle out of some women who accuse other women of "living off their husbands" and "where would you be without his money". I can make my own money, but my husband doesn't tell me that i need to work and doesn't tell me how much I need to make. He is the provider in this family and has never once asked me to work harder, earn more or get a different job. Remember when men used to do that and our mother's stayed home and raised the family and didn't work? Are you jealous of your girl friends or family members that don't have to work or who live debt free or do you hold that judgement for those you do not know?
Enough of this for now. I'm sure someone will have something to bash me about later on...go ahead, it just shows how very immature some women can be.

Honey, if you are the one posting about all the problems sm
with your father, you need more than jut a phone block. I can't say exactly what needs to be done, but you are here every week (and you need a place to vent and ask for help, so keep coming here), but there is so much more to your problems than "dad always calling, always at the house, always asking about mom". You need a legal analyst to come into this situation and get some formal help and training. I sincerely hate that you are going through this, but your life sounds like a soap opera and I honestly think you need more help then we can give. Good luck and prayers to you.
Eggs
I would assume you can freeze fried eggs. I saw a box of eggs (like you would get on a frozen breakfast sandwich) at Wal-Mart in the freezer, so I guess they freeze and microwave fairly well. Those frozen bfast sandwiches have eggs on them don't they?
Shoulda walked over and said,"Here, honey. Let me

Oh honey...go take a pill and have a stiff drink too...
some kids are just plain bratty and mean, bios and steps, no matter what the age. Many kids know how to manipulate the situation to their advantage, especially kids from divorce. Some of us are adult enough to see through it and make others aware. Nothing wrong with kids coming first, however, parents need to know when to reign little Tommy or Susie in and stop catering to them all the time.
I did that yesterday with the Honey Nut Cheerios snack mix
.
Baby Cakes, I LOVE it...thanks honey!
BTW, you are hardly starting a revolution. It is a little piece of skin...get over it (or maybe GET some of it!)
Could be Brooke's eggs - (sm)
I was thinking that, but when would she have given them? Also Bridget involved?? -h-m-m-m food for thought. Yes, watch Y&R (don't think Nick is dead either - I read he just signed a new 5-year contract). I agree, nothing wrong with having a little daytime fantasy in our lives - LOL
do you care where your eggs come from?
Does it matter to you whether your eggs came from a cage-free environment, or a caged one?
finches and eggs
You are having a time of it, aren't you!
This is not an uncommon problem. Many birds lay eggs anywhere and everywhere and don't sit until the 2nd, 3rd, 4th or more clutch has been laid. Breeders use those birds just to get the eggs and then put the eggs under another female who is sitting and she becomes the surrogate mother. What they do is put a hole in the bottom of the nest so that when the eggs are laid they fall down the hole to the pan where the breeder can get them before they are consumed and/or broken by the parents. Cool, huh? I had a pair of Quakers who were fantastic layers but ate every darn egg before I could get to them. I know that's not what you want to do, but this is how the pros handle bad sitters. Or they use an incubator which automatically turns the eggs every couple of hours if the hen won't sit.
Some birds eat the eggs out of boredom. Some eat them because they are craving calcium. Do you have cuttlebone in the cage? Is it within easy reach? Make sure it is. If they are not using it, you may need to add a calcium supplementation to the female's food or she could become egg-bound trying to lay (egg gets stuck in the vent and bird dies.) Consult your vet if she is not using the cuttlebone, as too much calcium is a really bad thing. Watch the male for the culprit as well. He may be low on calcium but since she is the layer you have to be especially careful of this when she is laying. You have to know the proper dosage to add to her food and don't let the male eat the extra calcium if he doesn't need it because you don't want to overload his system. If they are both eating the cuttlebone well, that is a good sign.
If she starts to sit and you don't want the babies, remember to substitute another WARM (in your hands warm) item such as a small marble or a bead that resembles the egg so that she will sit for her 28 or so days while her body recovers from laying or else she will continue to lay and lay until she is dead. They all need a period of rest between laying. Check out bird supply sites on the Internet for fake eggs.
If it gets to be too chronic, remove the male from the female to keep her from laying, at least while she builds her strength back up.
My bet is a calcium deficiency perhaps in both birds because either one or both are not just playing with them/breaking them but eating them as well. Don't add a calcium supplement without checking with your vet first. You have to get the correct diagnosis and then the correct dosage. He/she can feel the birds bones and do an assessment, etc. Find someone who really knows exotics.
Be sure their diet consists of more than seeds. Get them to eat some pelleted food. The best is Harrison's I was once told but do whatever works. Seed alone leads to malnutrition. This goes for all birds of whatever type. Also green veggies like Romaine which has calcium and they can drag a small piece around and play with it as they munch on it. Small as in thumbnail size at a time. My finches got carrot strips, broccoli florets, celery leaves, peas, etc. as toys to play with. They had a ball and it was all natural.
Best of luck!
Oh, never! Not when we have EGGS to read about.

frozen eggs
You can buy frozen egg/biscuit sandwiches in the frozen section of the grocery store (think Jimmy Dean brand)which you can then microwave, so I would assume you could make your own. The worst that could happen is do a trial run of 1 and see how it turns out. Great idea for the kids, not to mention cheaper if you make them yourself. Never thought of it, but may try it for myself! I make my own mini-TV dinners out of leftovers and freeze them and then microwave them which is another good idea in my mind.
frozen eggs
You can freeze eggs but they tend to get a little rubbery. Scambled eggs are better to freeze than fried eggs though, don't get rubbery. And eggs you cook yourself and freeze are different than the eggs you get on breakfast sandiwches you buy at the store in the freezer section. Good luck. Just thought I would share this with you. My husband is a chef, went to culinary school and all.
Umm... what's that got to do with the price of eggs?
That was a pretty off-subject, incoherent rant.
boiled eggs
Once I mentioned I liked boiled eggs. Everyone was so mad at me, there were 36 sitting in the middle of the table at dinner! Eat up!
deviled eggs
My eggs peel easily when I take them from the stovetop, pour off the hot water and then cover immediately with cold water and ice to cool. This works for me.
Honey, you're not here by accident, the world did not just "happen"!...
Will pray for you!
Hand him a lonog honey-do list one day after work,

Finches laying eggs
I posted about this about a week or two ago and got some wonderful advice. We put a nest and nesting material in the cage but they never used the material. Roxie layed her third egg (I disposed of the first 2 when we first saw them) last night on the bottom of the cage. She wouldn't sit on it. We thought we would wait to see what happened and within a few hours the egg was gone with no sign of any eggshell or anything. This afternoon found another egg, this time in the nest all by itself. Mother still not interested in sitting it seems. Okay, I typed about 10 charts and when I checked again the egg was completely gone. Should I take the eggs out or leave them to be devoured? I really don't want babies but am not sure how to proceed. Would really appreciate any advice. Thanks. BTW, I am leaving early tomorrow morning and won't be back until late late Tuesday night so if anyone responds tomorrow I won't see it until Wednesday.

Can you freeze fried eggs? - sm
I thought I might freeze breakfast sandwiches for my son so he can have a quick breakfast before work - you know, bagel, egg, bacon and cheese. Anybody know if eggs freeze and the microwave well? Thanks!
Not real eggs, just a design.

omelettes. eggs are economical protein
We like to have an omelette buffet about twice per month. We prepare all the family's favorite add-ins (diced ham, cooked potato, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, etc) and everyone chooses their own. Put 2 eggs in a quart-sized ziploc bag, seal the bag and simply squish the eggs by hand, then add your favorite ingredients. Remove as much of the air as you can, seal, and place all the bags in a large pot of boiling water for about 10 minutes (so as to not get each person's confused, you can write names on the bags with permanent marker). We add cheese after they're done, which the omelettes will slide right out of the bag. We just serve hot fresh biscuits and sliced navel oranges at the table to complete the meal. Everyone enjoys having their omelette their way and they're all done at the same time so no one's omelette gets cold. It only costs about $1 per person.
You guys must be as bored as I am to be reading about eggs! nm

I do miss the hiding and hunting for eggs
since my children are a little old for that. We hid eggs in neighbors yards (the ones will small children) when we knew they weren't home. We put candy and coins in all the eggs. One of the houses has a big sign on their front door that says "Thanks Easter Bunny". We were only able to watch one little boy look for eggs, but it was so worth it. Happy Easter to all!
i get eggs in the carton, Egg Beaters or egg whites

Find a local beekeeper who sells honey. I know, sounds crazy. but sm
here in our town of 200,000, a local beekeeper sells honey from the local bees where people with severe allergies will go and buy a bottle, eat 2 tablespoons a day for a few days and SWEARS by this method.
This is the only natural cure I have seen that actually works. The bees pollinate the stuff you are allergic to and then you eat their honey....and then you become immunue to the allergens in the air and it works.
What do you make of the lab tech questioning the donated eggs? (sm)
There seemed to be something weird there, but can't figure out whose eggs they might be, if that is what was even implied.
Please allow me this vice. Implanting Brook's eggs - CRAZY!!

Our Christmas b'fast tradiation is scrapple and eggs
but I know that's no help! You have to be brought up on it to like. :)
Honey, I grew up on the south shore of Long Island, NY in hurricane territory...
ya know how to duck and cover. I've never been through a major earthquake or a real tsunami yet though. Hey, there's always time for that. Cat
Emeril Legasse taught me about hard-boiled eggs
Emeril says to put the eggs in the pot with the cold water, and wait for it to boil, when it's a rolling boil, shut off the stove, and cover the pot for 13 minutes - and voila!! Perfect hard-boiled eggs!!
*S*
Scrapple and eggs, hashbrowns, muffins, bagels and toast.
Yum!
