Do you give you dog bones?

mjcookie @mjcookie (2271) • Philippines 8 Jan 10

KissThis I think it would depend on how long the mother would be in prison. If the mother is serving a short sentence then I don't see why there should be a problem because they would need to bond. However, if the mother were serving a longer or life sentence then I...

KissThis I have helped on field trips several times since my children began going to school. One of the first things I always do with a new teacher is ask how she would like for me to help her or if there is a certain way that she would like to have things done. I...

momathome @momathome (474) • Canada 9 Apr 09

I have tried many times to cook rice. Not the instant rice but the other rice. It's very hard to cook for me and it never comes out right. It's either to mushy or to hard. How do you get it so it's just right? I have no problem...

KissThis I bought one last weekend actually. To be honest with you I was disappointed with the product. I didn't like the fact that it tells you to go to its website to watch the video on how to use the product. Two of my dogs totally hated the machine and normally my...

KissThis Yes, I believe it is possible to love an adopted child as much as you would love your own biological child. I am the mother of two adopted sons and the biological mother of a daughter. I love all of my children the same. Its all just a matter of bonding with...

Why do they do it, sugar in diabetic recipes

suspenseful @suspenseful (40193) • Canada 22 Nov 08

KissThis Well actually diabetics can have sugar as long as they have it in moderation. Depending on how much sugar a recipe calls for as well as how many servings a recipe is the amount of sugar won't necessarily raise the sugar level. Even products that say they are...

KissThis I am glad that you didn't have to wait too long in line. I will be going to vote this afternoon when my husband gets home. It shouldn't take too long because we live in a small town so I am not worried about there being a long line.
