I have to say an apology to the Salvation Army. I Know many would think what could I Have against such a good group. Well I really have issue with them making money off of clothes and Items donated to them. I still do not like...

KizzyCatfish I am glad to hear that the Salvation Army helped you out! I don't know why you have a problem with them selling the donations, that's what allows them to help you and others. Without the sales, then they wouldn't have had the $50 per person to donate to you. I...

conquer2012 @conquer2012 (324) • China 27 Sep 11

KizzyCatfish Over the years, I have not been a "breakfast person", although I've tried to do better lately. I am also not a morning person, even though I have to get up and tackle every day. As a child, my parents were dedicated to giving us three square meals a day, and...

Dog Call, about your dog.

ladygator @ladygator (3465) • United States 27 Sep 11

Hi everyone! I am checking in with other my-lotters. I would like to know if you like dogs. Why or why not. If you do, what is your favorite breed? What does you dog mean to you. Do you take your dog to doggie daycare? What...

Tonight I made a crust less pumpkin pie for my kids. My son does not like the crust, so this makes it easier for me with out the waste from him. The pie was baking and smelling good. I took it out when it seemed to be done and let...

KizzyCatfish Sure and more than once, I have no doubt! The most recent one that I remember is a Mexican Bean and Chicken Casserole that I made for my daughter and son-in-law-to-be. (They are married now). I purchased the ingredients without my usual list as I make this...

KizzyCatfish One of my cats came to me as an adoption. Her existing name was Sophie, and we let her keep it, but I thought that it was a little boring, so I gave her a big kitty name and if she had a birth certificate it would have read "Sophistikitty" Then we had...

KizzyCatfish I always love a good back rub - as a kid from my dad, and as an adult from my husband. The problem there was they were always ready to quit before I was. As to a professional massage, I've only had one in my whole life. In the end, I went away with mixed...

My Menu is in a Rutt!

clrumfelt @clrumfelt (5490) • United States 26 Sep 11

I love to cook, but I still find myself using the same old recipes over and over. It's hard to find new recipes I think my family would like. Do you ever have this problem?

KizzyCatfish Hi! I know what you mean, as I have to cook for a 90 year old man every night. It does get hard to be creative. Sometimes it's easiest to keep with what one knows, but then there are times when I really want to make a change. A lot of times I'll take the meat...

How necessary do you think the gore is on Halloween?

KizzyCatfish I think the gore on Halloween is terribly overdone. As a matter of fact we have plenty of it year-round in our movie theaters and on television every day. I think that it molds peoples' minds and has created a lot of the problems we have today. I would much...

Fish

lctravenisk @lctravenisk (483) • Brazil 19 Sep 11

I really like to eat fish, and yesterday I bought a lot of it in the form of fillet, because it was on sale. But now I realize that I don't know that much of recipes with fish fillet. I know that I can fry breaded fish, do a...

KizzyCatfish Every time I have a "recipe dilemma" such as you're describing, I go straight to google.com then I type in fish recipe or whatever I'm searching for. I don't know what kind of fillet you purchased, but I would definitely narrow it down to the type of fish you...

KizzyCatfish I'm kinda with you on that - although I quit caffeine so I'll take hot chocolate. Sweats in the winter, yes, although in a Fresno hot summer, loose shorts and a t-shirt in front of the air conditioner would be better. Also knowing that when I go to bed, in the...

What should you be doing right now that you are not doing?

asyria51 @asyria51 (2861) • United States 19 Sep 11

I should be sitting at the table grading the pile of papers that did not get done over the weekend, especially since progress reports go home this week. I just needed a minute or two to myself to get motivated to go and grade the...

KizzyCatfish I should be calling potential advertisers to set appointments for sales. After so many phone calls, one gets weary and has to take a break. Every phone call is one call closer to that big sale! I guess I'd better get back on the phone!

KizzyCatfish I love to cruise on a cruise ship. I don't have a plan yet, but a cruise is definitely at the top of my list. Jamaica, the Caribbean, anywhere that the temperature is warm and the water a clear blue. A cruise is number one!
