I've heard a lot about different ways of detoxing your body? Has anyone tried it? I want to hear success stories or failed attempts. Also, tell me how you did it? There are so many systems out there, I am curious what works. I'm...

karishirley Thanks for the response! I definitely need to drink more water every day...and I've been trying to eat healthier also. I work at an organic market, so I have that going for me...but I don't eat the proper variety of foods. I tend to eat too much starch and...

karishirley Thank you so much for your ideas! That sounds like a great idea. I'm going to have a look tomorrow and see what the meat department holds, but I know that he likes prime rib. I'll definitely keep that in mind,and thanks for the tips on cooking meat. I am not...

karishirley There are so many options. Steak is a good idea...I think he'd definitely like red meat. :) Thanks for the ideas!

I have been having an incredibly hard time falling asleep lately. Last night I slept from 1am til 3:45am and I just couldn't fall back asleep. I had to get ready for work at 7am and today all day I just felt terrible. Have you...

karishirley I'll try the milk thing. Another problem too is probably my work schedule. I work 2 jobs and the hours are varied all over the place but a typical day is 9-1pm, then a break and 4-10:30pm. It's pretty hard to fall right asleep when you get home at 11pm and get...

karishirley At the grocery store you can get little jars of pesto, which is just olive oil, basil and oregano and minced garlic. It is DELICIOUS, very heavy taste of garlic. That may have been the ingredient, garlic pesto. Even if that isn't how your sauce was made, try...

Tell us about some things you've gotten for free. How did you hear about them? What's the story behind it if there is one? I think our best freebie was a riding lawn mower. It worked fine and we used it for a couple years until we...

karishirley Hahaha. Me too, but then again you can always thin it out and take some donations to the next free market. I often take things that seem neat at the time, but maybe fit a little awkward, or it turns out i have no use for...then I'll donate 'em back! Hehe.

karishirley Well, I am not a meat eater, so I get hormel canned chili with no meat...but any kind will do! Actually, when I had it the first time at a restaurant it was a meat variety of chili (not a veg at that point) and it was still good. When I make homemade chili it...

Lately, all I can afford are the bare essentials. It is so disheartening to go to the grocery store these days! I have found a few ways to help with my budget. One of them is shortcuts.com. I don't know if anyone has heard of that...

I managed to burn myself. I was reaching into the cupboard to do something and did not realise how close the just boiled kettle was until my bare tummy touched it. Ouch!!! I put ice on it to try and stop the burn from going to...

karishirley Aww, glad you're doing well with the burn! I also forgot to mention, I have this constant struggle with gravity. If I go 3 months without spraining something I feel lucky! I've been good for awhile--knock on wood--so maybe I've somehow kicked my curse. Haha....

karishirley Oooh! Thank you so much! That alfredo sauce idea seems delicious! I just get so tired of canned marinara sauce. In the summer I want to remember to make pesto and freeze it, because I love pesto and it is so very expensive at the stores. I'm doing a little...

karishirley Well frankly I am not into that drone stuff either. Last year I got him a Boris album I knew that he didn't own and it turned out being some sort of fluke recording that was not very much like their other stuff. I actually kind of liked it! Ha...but overall I...
