I'm just curious as to how many people have a secret cash stash. Money that you have tucked away that your significant other doesn't know about just incase, for whatever reason. If you do, what are your reasons for doing...

cavywench The subject was brought up not too long about regarding people in live-in relationships or married couples having secret stashes of money just incase they need to leave. I thought it interesting of how many people I know personally that have what they call an...

I have been working with my family history for almost twenty years. I can trace one line into counties Cavan and Antrim circa 1750. Anyone else with traceable Irish roots? Where and how far back?

cavywench Unfortunately there is only a handful of "Logans" around here, and I know not where they live. I guess I will have to pick my mom's brain as I'm sure she'd like to connect with them too. I've done some poking around for the Yoder half of my maternal...

I've just run across this stuff and was wondering if anyone has any tips/tricks for working with it. Do I need special tools? For those that don't know what it is, it's a waterbased clay that has been impregnated with silver...

cavywench Thank you! I get so nervous when I post my stuff. No, those hearts weren't from online. I have a beautiful, yet a bit spendy bead shop in the town I live in. They were in a "grab bin" of different Czech glass beads. I feel in love with them because they so...

I love making jewelry. I use gauge wire to make hoops, and also to make rings. The only tools I use are needle nose pliers, wire cutters and my hands. I get the most joy out of making the rings, it's fun to shape the wire and then...

cavywench Yep, those are my handiwork. Thank you! When I first saw chain maille I thought I'd never understand how all that stuff was put together, but it's kind of like a jigsaw puzzle, once you get going the pieces fall together.

To me it seems like morning sickness would be detrimental to a pregnant woman. She's trying to get all the nutrients she can, so it seems odd that pregnant women can't keep food down. It seems like that would be something that...

cavywench I had morning sickness, but later in the day - I worked 2nd shift. I worked at a hotel and I was fine until I got to work. Then the smell of food cooking got to me bad. I could NOT handle the smell of cooking meat. Ugh. Then I'd go home and one of my room...

cavywench It sounds like you have a very young pig. Do you having any idea of the pigs approximate age? Young pigs are usually pretty spunky, popcorning and wild racing. Pigglies knows her stuff! :-) I strongly recommend a bigger cage. Those cages off...

cavywench I do, I do! A coworker got me started on chain mailling and I love it! Pigglies, I can't help with castings other than make your own. I have done so much research on precious metal clay that I WANT to give it a try. It seems to me that it would be the...

One of our guinea pigs has a bad cut on her side and she keeps scratching and biting it. Everytime it starts to heal, she makes it bleed again because she keeps scratching and biting it. What can we do about this? Can anyone...

cavywench Good suggestion with the sock. I have seen that before and the users have had good results. Just make sure it's not too tight.

cavywench I love Nora Roberts. I've seen the adverts for the movies but I'm a little skeptical of watching them. I guess when I read her books I get this nice little picture in my head, one that I enjoy and I don't want it ruined! I might take a peek though.
