explorations I used to talk to her one or two times per day, but I haven't talked to her since mid-December because we had a terrible falling out. It'll work itself out eventually, but now is not the right time. This happens between us every five or six years for some odd...

explorations I was around nine or ten, and my sister and I wanted to bake some bread because we just saw how to do it on some PBS kid's show. We had all the ingrediants except yeast, so we decided to use salt as a substitution. It came out "looking" like real bread, but...

explorations Nope, beating my children has never been an option in this house. I try to figure out what's going on, and then if I can't I try to research the problem online or in books. I figure, the more I know the better I'll be able to help my child through whatever it...

explorations I'm a left-handed writer, but I tend to work on art projects with both hands. If my left hand becomes too tired or sore, I can paint or work with other mediums using my right hand. It's interesting considering I can't write with my right hand at all. :-)

explorations It all depends. If I'm working hard and perspiring a lot, then I'll head for the deoderant bar soap. If it's a usual day where there's not a lot of physcial or strenuous activity, then I'll go for the shower cream or shower gel. :-)
