This past few days my boyfriend and I had been watching old movies such as Serendipity, Harry Potter series, A walk to remember, Taken, and a lot more. We just find old movies to be more appealing and sentimental. Do you love...

Hello all! We all need coffee in the morning and with Spring (finally!) here, how do you clean the inside; where you put the water? Vinegar and if so, how often? Thanks!

Cricket127 Hi and thanks for the suggestion as that part needs to be cleaned too. What I meant was where you put in the water before it brews the coffee...how do you clean that? Thanks and I'm sorry if I wasn't too clear before. :-)

We just heard of a girl we knew that died from trying to abort a fetus. It cost too much for her to go to a Dr. so she tired doing it by pills. She went into a coma and never came out. It was too bad that someone couldn't have...

Cricket127 Hi! Yes it is sad to see it happen, especially when it doesn't have to. I'm not so sure it would have been a mess but would have been on hold for a few years at best. That's why I suggested that people get the knowledge so they can regain control and...

Cricket127 Hi! I did see that there was a baking contest in the latest issue of Taste of Home; $500. You can use published recipes but change a few ingredients so it would really be yours or use a family unpublished recipe. There's also a bake sale for...

Cricket127 Hi! We too wondered if there was something wrong so we did have some bloodwork done on him and nothing was ever found. I wonder if it is psycological; that he may feel overwhelmed by others talking that he shies away. I know I do sometimes so that may be part...

Cricket127 I too have noticed that it's been changing over the years and wish that it hasn't become the way it has. I think a lot of it has to do with some reaching for the extremes and sadly, that has become tolerated in society until people stand up and say "ENOUGH!"...
