Juliaacv How very awful. To target our youth, our future, and those that teach and care for them, that is beyond comprehension for my mind.

You and Your Dad

Amber @AmbiePam (95721) • United States 17h

I was wondering if this was something that’s just been the last decade or so, or if I just wasn’t aware of these events years ago. Annelyn (pictured), my 5 year old niece, is dressed for the Kings and Princesses Luau at their...

Juliaacv We had sunshine here today, which is so nice, since we rarely get that unless it is super cold out. It hovers around the freezing mark here, and that is better than so far below like it was. I hope that you have fun at the game night if you go.

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (83605) • United States 22h

Happy Tuesday Everyone! the sun is shining and I always feel better when it's shining. It's those dark, dreary days that seem to suck the energy out of me. Yesterday I had a case of the blahs and it was probably more related to...

I needed a little color

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (62556) • Centralia, Washington 3 Feb

My world has been chilly and gray all day. I made it to the blissfully hot gym pool this morning- scraped ice from the car first. Like I said, I needed some color. I put some oh so red beets on to boil for supper then sliced...

What's in your spice cabinet?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (40230) 3 Feb

When all the kids were still at home, my life was so wildly busy, I never really gave a thought to my spice cabinet, except to note when a spice was getting low, and I would need a replacement soon. Then, I had a big move 11 years...

Juliaacv I do label my spices. I began replacing them in smaller quantities that I can buy from the Bulk Barn. There you only take what you need/want and that helps with the shelf life.

Juliaacv I am not a huge fan of ham so much as a cold meat. I do like to snack on slices of Swiss cheese, that is my very favorite. I usually have 1 slice over the course of 1 working day on my last break.

Juliaacv I had an outdoor line when I lived in the country. I loved loved loved to hang the laundry, that was relaxing to me. Here I will hang some pieces out, but we don't have as much space here. I fold everything, underwear, scarves, just everything.
