why do we have wants? most of the things that I truly want, it seems like i'll never have. i just can't make sense out of it.. wants are added things that we don't NEED. or it's a specific type of thing that we do...

mareem I think wants, in general, stem from the longing to be happy, or content, or fulfilled, or whatever along that line. Those wants stem from what we either see or what someone else tells us will fulfill that longing. You see how happy someone seems when they...

I have always believed in signs, but sometimes when I think things are signs, it turns out to just be coincidence, so how can you know the difference? Okay, here is my situation. Most of you know about my crush on the FedEx...

Last night after dinner I decided I had a sweet tooth so I baked something from scratch. Not a really sweet treat but sweet enough for me. This is/was my 1st attempt making it from scratch. It was a loaf of Banana Bread. Photo...

mareem I bake everything from scratch... from bread to cakes to whatever. The last time I baked was yesterday. I baked multi-grain rolls to go with homemade soup and chocolate cake for dessert. I've never been much for cooking/baking from boxes or cans, or popping...

certain foods? Like chicken for instance. Which do you like better baked chicken or fried? I think fried chicken tastes better, even if it is bad for us. My grandmother used to bake hamburgers on a cookie sheet to cut down on...

fried chicken

mareem Personally, I think fried foods get a bad rap because they all get lumped together. Of course, if you eat nothing but fried foods, it isn't going to be healthy for you. But having some fried chicken or a fried burger now and then isn't going to harm you. The...

most of the time we can see very ood obedient girls become attracted to bad boys what is the reason for this psychlogy?

6 responses

mareem I can't tell you why all "good girls" that go for bad boys do, but, as one who did myself, I can tell you about me. Of course, in my day, "bad" wasn't usually nearly as bad as it is today, so there is a big distinction there! Back in the 1960's, when I was in...

A friend of mine once brought me back a small jar of jelly when she went out of state, back to her home in Oregon. The jelly was "marionberry". I'd never ever heard of it before and was a little reluctant to try it but, oh man.......

mareem You're quite welcome, koalatbs. I'm glad I could be of some help in at least clearing up what they are. Before moving to Washington, one of my cousins lived near Salem, so I have had the great pleasure of eating Marionberries straight off the vine. Fresh, they...

mareem I know what you mean about getting older. It is getting hard to move in the morning after sleeping on the ground! *LOL* I guess it's one of those little drawbacks to passing the half-century mark, but, hey, we made it, didn't we? *BG*
