Chocolate and chili combination

Always smiling @allknowing (143901) • India 17 Apr

There was a programme on TV this morning about the exotic taste of combining chocolate with chili. That is a new trend these days - combining uncommon tastes. I have mixed sweet and spicy tastes and the outcome is that it tastes...

A popping noise, then a big mess.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (42813) 18 Apr

Last night, dinner was in the oven. Just a casserole, but by some stroke of luck, it was a casserole that required a foil covering, which did help a little to contain the disaster, thank goodness. I was standing by the counter...

Amber @AmbiePam (97268) • United States 18 Apr

1960 Songs: True Love Ways

Four Walls @FourWalls (73665) • United States 18 Apr

Yes, we all know this wasn’t actually recorded in 1960. However, it was released in 1960, so that qualifies it for this countdown of songs that are celebrating their 65th birthday this year. Hey, just like me! Wonder if...

Kandase Seeing the movie and reading about the deaths of those rock and roll greats always make me sad. They were so young, so talented - The Big Bopper, Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens - if only they did not take that plane ride.....

Survival Shows do you enjoy these?

snowy @snowy22315 (187898) • United States 18 Apr

I have to admit I am a big fan of these shows, but sometimes you really have to question their horrible decision making. One guy was hiking by himself in the Sierra"s, although some people knew what trail he had started off on...

Kandase I suppose that's why they are called survival shows. I watch them too and l also wonder about the mistakes people make - but if they didn't we won't see how they managed to survive. One mistake l would never make is going into a wildérness alone. At least...

Choosing Misery.

Kandase @Kandae11 (56207) 9 Apr

Can someone find happiness in being miserable? Strange as that might sound - some people actually choose to be miserable. My late mother often spoke of a lady she knew whose husband died in a car crash ( he was 45 and his wife...

Opposites attract, but similars stay

snowy @snowy22315 (187898) • United States 14 Apr

Have you known couples who were totally different in personality? I used to have a boss who was a very talkative, loquacious fellow. He liked to talk to everyone and about everything. He was the type of person that if you saw him...

Kandase I think opposites might have longer marriages than those couples with the same personalities. Imagine both husband and wife with stubborn personalities.
