That's what I have for dinner

Lerochka @Lertka (370) • Ukraine 17 Oct 17

I really enjoy cooking. I like to experiment with food. Today I am preparing the stuffed cabbage for Yuzhin. They are very tasty and we love them. Who is cooking what for dinner?

earthpanther Last night I made pork steak and roasted Brussels sprouts for dinner. My husband and I really enjoyed the meal, our 5 year old daughter not so much. I'm thinking about salmon for dinner tonight maybe. Not sure yet.

My 'Miss Petunia Dingle' business

percyboots @percyboots (116) • Canada 20 Sep 17

I am currently in the process of slowly starting my own small business called Miss Petunia Dingles; I named a doll this and couldn't find another name, so I decided to use it. I sold some of my stuff last year just before...

earthpanther Congratulations! From what I gather on other forums making $900 starting out selling crafts is amazing. What do you consider expensive for a craft fair table? I've seen them in my area range from $35 to $450 dollars. Online sales have a huge potential, but...

Why do strangers think they can come up and rub your pregnant belly??

SophiesMommy @SophiesMommy (1288) • United States 22 Oct 06

Why do they think they can do that? When you're pregnant does the personal space bubble disappear or something? It's also rediculous when strangers think they can come up and touch your baby! What's wrong with people?

earthpanther I am pregnant right now. I haven't had any complete strangers come up and touch my belly yet. I have had friends touch my belly both with and mostly without asking first. Apparently I am strange because I really don't mind it. It is nice that they are so...

Deborah L. Alten @gtargirl (5376) • United States 10 Aug 11

earthpanther I am going to guess they get paid a salary and not by the hour. Salaried employees often get abused in this way. If they were paid hourly this situation would be less likely to occur because most companies do not want to pay overtime unless they really have...

Why do people break rules?

vikas121 @vikas121 (296) 11 Aug 11

When looking around we find people breaking rules. We also do that ourself. Driving two wheeler without helmet, driving four-wheeler without seat-belt, smoking at no smoking zone and many more rules according to various...

earthpanther I will start out with a positive view on humanity; people break rules because they are ignorant of them. From a lot of experience I can tell you most people do not read signs. So if the law is posted on a sign the person breaking it probably never read the...

earthpanther I've looked at the discussions that have no responses. Usually the reason for lack of responses is 1)it is a new discussion or 2)there is nothing in the discussion to respond to. If you just tell me a fact about something there is no discussion to be had so I...

earthpanther Happiness is more important than money. But not having to struggle every month to pay the bills increases my happiness. I think you should try to find out more about the work conditions at the place that just offered you a job. Double your pay is a very big...

I heard that Rottweilers are very unpredictable breed. is it true. can anyone share his/ her experience with me?

unpredictable

earthpanther I think everything depends on how the dog was bred and raised. My aunt and uncle used to have 2 rottweilers. They also have a bunch of young children. Their dogs were total sweethearts. Not a violent bone in their bodies.

why do people in Brazil speak Portuguese?

warrior007 @warrior007 (570) • India 8 Aug 11

i read a book in past days .there is a question why people in Brazil speak Portuguese i dont know the answer but might i get my answer here from my Brazil and Portuguese friends.

amazing

4 responses

earthpanther This question has a very simple historical answer to it. The people of Brazil speak Portuguese because the Portuguese colonized Brazil beginning in 1500. Much like the Spainairds colonized Mexico, thus Mexicans speak Spanish.

Robben2009 @Robben2009 (146) • China 7 Aug 11
