Wish I Could

echoforever @echoforever (5180) • United States 16 Jul 12

I think this would be a nice hobby of mine if I ever could get into it. Cooking is a type of expression. And I think its one of the best because I love to eat. If I weren't lucky I would be more overweight but I think I have a...

leafygreens08 If I could, I would cook mostly stir fry dishes. I like Chinese food and Italian. I love noodles! I cook spaghetti at least once a week. I cook other dishes like steaks, hamburgers, turkey, and chicken, but my favorite is Chinese. =)

A very difficult read!

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 14 Jul 12

Right now I'm slowly working my way through Fox's Book of Martyrs, which is a pretty ancient account of Christians who suffered and were murdered in the time of the early church and up through the Renaissance. I want to finish it,...

leafygreens08 I would find such a book very disturbing. I doubt I could read it. I have seen some documentaries on TV that were pretty graphic and I could barely watch those, so I can imagine that I would not be able to get those this book. The other kind of books I find...

The Second Story Of Creation

keshlois143 @keshlois143 (713) • Philippines 6 Jul 12

I have encountered some students who were seeking for a book about the Second Story of Creation. I do not know what is it all about for all I know is the creation that God had made in the beginning at the book of Genesis in the...

leafygreens08 They are referring to the second chapter of Genesis. There are two stories in Genesis. The first differs from the second. If you want to read what they are talking about then read chapters one and two. If you study them carefully you will see they are a bit...

Sherriff Taylor is gone now.

celticeagle @celticeagle (168126) • Boise, Idaho 3 Jul 12

I just woke up from a nap and heard the news about Andy Griffith passing. He had quite a career. I remember him as the sherriff with Ron Howard and DOn Knotts. We were getting re-runs for awhile until just recently. He had a long...

leafygreens08 I grew up watching his show and even watched the spin-off "Mayberry RFD" and enjoyed all the humor and characters. I never watched him in Matlock though as I don't care for courtroom dramas. He did some fine work and I am so glad to hear he passed away in his...

leafygreens08 Whatever color, size or gender, I HATE SPIDERS! =D A LOT! They creep me out and it's all I can do to run and get a tennis shoe to quickly bash them dead. As a matter of fact, in the MMORPG game I play, Everquest2, there are nasty HUGE spiders in it and I show...

It's too hot to be outside so I am going to do some crafting!

jillhill @jillhill (37354) • United States 2 Jul 12

The heat wave here has been going on for a few days. It's way too hot to be outside so finding something indoors is the best thing a person can do. I am very happy though to spend my time up in my craft room, in fact if the...

midnightmom44 @midnightmom44 (117) • United States 2 Jul 12

I am a Christian. I believe in the holy Trinity family of God. I love Jesus. But I do not actually belong to a church. Depending on what is going on n when I can go worship I go to several different Christian churches. I think...

leafygreens08 I don't always go to church as I find I learn more and enjoy the intimacy and fellowship of Bible Study. Bible Study/Small Groups are a good way to fellowship and worship our Lord. Churches are also good if you like the one you are attending. Whatever you do,...

Writing - How did you begin?

Jennib1 @Jennib1 (62) • South Africa 24 Jun 12

leafygreens08 Yes, I was a little. I did some research to some writing sites like Triond.com and saw what people were writing there. After I saw the they were quite nice and supportive I took a chance. I also looked for a writers group here in town. If you really want to...

leafygreens08 I agree. I was gifted a Kindle and didn't use it for months because I love REAL BOOKS. But now that my husband and I are traveling more, I never go on a trip without my Kindle. I use it for games, dictionary and thesaurus, glossaries, and personal file access...

Dreaming that your teeth are falling out.

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 23 Apr 12

I read in one of my books on dreams that one of the most common dreams (right up there with being naked in public) is one where your teeth are falling out. At the time I thought, "Well, I've never had a dream like that!" and then...

leafygreens08 Yes, I have had such dreams, Ally, but normally it has me losing one tooth. I don't think it such a mystery for me though. I have been getting some work done on my teeth and so that could be my anxiety appearing in my dreams.

Mid-College Crisis

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 24 Mar 12

leafygreens08 I can truly relate, Ally. When I was in college I was really unhappy. I was doing poorly in my classes and it was expensive. My heart was going into the navy. Yes, the navy! I was a navy groupie back then and I wanted nothing more than to enlist and be navy. I...

Would a "Smart" woman or man writer fall for this?

leafygreens08 Is that a misprint? $1,047??? Well, even if it's only $10.47, one would have to be very careful where their money is going. Lots of quacks out there trying to scam people every single day. Thanks for sharing though. As a writer, I am always looking for idea...

The Clear Skin Diet (book I read)

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 1 Dec 11

I recently read "The Clear Skin Diet" by Alan C. Logan and Valori Treloar. The connection between diet and acne has been a subject of extensive debate in the dermatologist community for decades, and those of us who have are...

leafygreens08 Sounds a lot like the same advise many other diets recommend. So are you recommending this book as having been good for your skin and weight? Why do you think it helped you so. And by the way, did you finish your film project?
