Are you an expert in cooking?

May2k8 @May2k8 (19096) • Indonesia 27 Oct

I'm not an expert but at least it still tastes good to eat. Today I was frying tempeh mixed with wheat flour but it was a little burnt because I left for a moment to look for a plate.

Marie Coyle Everyone has a cooking flop once in a great while, no matter what. Don't let it get you down. I was raised by several very good cooks. They instilled a love of cooking in me. Food...we have to have it, so we may as well make it taste good!!

Books: Will we ever stop using physical books?

Anne Perry @eli908640 (37) 29 Oct

I did a quick online search on stats about whether or not we will ever stop using physical books. I was astonished by the answers. To summarize, it turns out that by 2050, 90%+ of reading will be digital for efficiency. But...

Halloween ranks up there with the day before Christmas break and the last few days of school. We will have inappropriate costumes, students hopped up on sugar, and general just craziness. I'm not even going to attempt to lecture....

Done Raining

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (124321) • Marion, Ohio 20h

I think. I hope so for now. But we do still need more rain. It's just nice to let the dogs out without an argument about it. Even Patch border collie hates when it's windy. That wasn't bad today. Got the shopping done. Walmart...

Judy Story @jstory07 (146260) • Roseburg, Oregon 29 Oct

Did you know that candles have been around for 5000 years. They were used in Egypt and Rome. When America started making candles they used wax for the first time. Than in 1825 a candle making machine was invented. That...

10/29/25 - Meals

LindaOH @LindaOHio (204860) • United States 30 Oct

Terminix showed up yesterday afternoon and found 7 or 8 dead mice in the basement. Gross. He, too, mentioned that they are probably coming in through the back door since there is weather stripping missing on that door. He...

Marie Coyle Well, yes, steel wool is a good thing, mice hate it. But I do have to ask, will the Terminex dude put it in place, or do you have to pay someone to do it? If it's the latter, here's a test you can try....remember cousin #3's husband offered to help you if you...

Good morning 10/30

snowy @snowy22315 (198110) • United States 30 Oct

Another gloomy day out there. However, the rain is supposed to stop before noon and it will get sunny, and windy. I just took a "brain fun" quiz. It is part of a research project of sorts. It comes to my email, every morning, and...

Marie Coyle We are pretty much in the 50's in the daytime and the 30's at night now. No sun today. I have one errand, plus taking son for a blood draw. Not exciting, but it won't take long. I think the Halloween spooktacular sounds great!

Shopping Day

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (124321) • Marion, Ohio 30 Oct

I will get ready to go in about an hour. No big hurry. It's raining out which we need. So far the wind is mostly calm. I am thinking the worst of that might have come through overnight. Nothing major planned for when I get home....

Would you carry a cellphone in your bra?

snowy @snowy22315 (198110) • United States 30 Oct

One more Vet visit done and over with

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (66535) • Centralia, Washington 29 Oct

Marie Coyle I have had several rescue dogs over the years that guessing their ages, even by the vet, was close to impossible. I am of the opinion that rescue pets are the best pets ever! I am glad your BeauTeak Kitty is doing so well and he is lively.
