I made it back from jamming with my friends. It was fun, though one of the guys was in story-telling mode, and I wanted to play more music.
OK, I know this is odd, but in several recent photos of Donald Trump, I've noticed that...

coolimrose Since I have rejoined my lot this has been the funniest discussion.
And for trump, why can't he retire gracefully?

I am not a morning person so I try to have some quick and easy breakfast foods for the morning.
The 2 I usually have are overnight oats that I prepare ahead the night before and store in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning...

coolimrose Even I'm trying to avoid wheat and trying newer grains. I'm dabbling a lot into millets nowadays. I love eggs, that is always a choice. I haven't tried overnight oats yet but I'm sure they are tasty. For now, I cook oats on the stove.
I hope you find some new...

I just came to my home town this morning. My mom and my sister asked me to buy some snacks as a treat.
I went to the local bakery shop and bought some sweets & snacks item. Added four snack items on the...

Unfortunately you didn't qualify. The good news is we gathered a whole bunch of information in those 45 minutes and we don't have to compensate you for it. I mean, yeah, the survey was worth 12 cents, but money is money. We are...

coolimrose I have been through this couple of times and it's the most annoying thing ever. People should complain more as I find this is not wrong. Getting our hopes high and getting involved only to be kicked out. I have observed some do pay for our effort. I guess...

Hello friends! Happy start of the week, I've been 15 days as a graphic designer, working from home.
It's something that suits me at the moment. I'm in college, and a conventional job takes me quite a long time.
I was working last...

One thing I have learned is that if we have a lot of some sort of produce (generally from the garden, although sometimes perhaps we might buy a big bag of something that seemed like a bargain!), I simply have to learn to like it....

coolimrose Never tried rhubarb though it's so freely available. Apple and rhubarb pie is something too popular but I haven't indulged in one yet.
I have stayed clear of Brussels sprouts though I have heard they taste delicious stir-fried with bacon bits.
Kale, I have...

I have worked with littlies, either as a researcher or as a teacher/psychologist, for most of my life.
When I'm playing with my young charges, it might look to the casual observer that we're all just a having a good 'ol...

coolimrose I think most, not all educators just don't care. It is more like a stable source of income. Most aren't passionate about the job. I feel they disregard the fact that teaching kids at that level are the biggest responsibility one can take. There is absolutely...

I have always said English is a funny language. Take for example the word 'beef' that has a different meaning under different circumstances
When you say 'beef up' it is to add weight, strength, or power to something
And then...

coolimrose Indeed, that's what makes it so charming. This is a good example that explains the unique character of beef in various ways. People have often found ingenious ways to use words due to a lack of extensive vocabulary. Often people spoke about what was expected...

coolimrose I did a bit of sprucing up my medicine cabinet. Loads of expired tabs, capsules, and tubes with no caps. That place was messy. I'm glad it's clear of any rubbish. May I know what is troubling your knees? Like an injury or bone degeneration. I suffer from knee...

Didn't do so well on the posting today. I guess I'll just have to accept that my life's gotten busy. I'll keep trying to do what I can.
Right now what I need to do is shut down the computer and get to bed....

I love millet bread. This is Pearl millet bread. Beautiful for digestion, high in iron, very good for diabetes and it is so filling. It will keep you away from hunger pangs for hours. Above all, Pearl millet is eaten during...

coolimrose Bajre ki roti is such an unsung hero of our country. I was surprised to earn that India is the biggest exporter of Bajra. This year budget millet's importance was highlighted as people living in India are still unaware of its medicinal properties. I have never...

I didn't like the door handles that came with the...

coolimrose I would love to engage in such activities but my limited mobility won't allow it. Also to revamp one needs paints nuts bolts and whatnot. I also don't have any company as a friend to share the work with. I just appreciate it when someone put their creativity...
