I'm going to be run run running the next three to six months, and won't be able to cook meals that will take long to make. Can you guys help me out with some FAST recipes? Something healthy and filling, that my whole family will...

new_waver Portobello mushroom burgers are one my favorite quick meals--- they take about 20 minutes to make, are really filling and tasty. Plus, it makes a nice healthy change from ground beef. Here's a link to a good recipe:...

How honest are you with opinions? Are you honest when asked - or do you offer it up yourself? Do you tell friends that clothes or hairstyle isn't flattering or about the spinach stuck in their teeth?

new_waver Friends don't let friends walk around with spinach in their teeth! ;) As for giving my opinion on how they're dressed, I'll give an honest answer if I'm asked for my opinion. Or if it's something monumentally hideous, I suppose I'd volunteer my opinion...

Years ago I had a women's cologne called Intimate by Revlon, I got so many compliments whenever I wore it, but I can't find it anymore. I also loved to wear Rapture by Victoria's Secret and Heavenly by Victoria's Secret. Another...

new_waver I use Very Irresistible by Givenchy almost every day. I'm not normally fond of rose-based scents, but this one is very nice, with a hint of spiciness. It's flirty and sexy without being too heavy. I also really like Happy Heart by Clinique---clean and bright,...

new_waver You're in luck then, because Newcastle is very close to the Scottish border. The only thing that's between us and Scotland is Northumberland county, the most rural (and castle-filled) county in the UK.

When it comes to memories of my youth, music inevitably comes to mind. Music from the 80's, specifically those 'new-wave' music often characterized by its use of synthesizers, was often overlook by music critics and the so-called...

new_waver I agree with you about new wave being overlooked by most 'serious' music critics, although they paid a lot of attention to some bands in the second British invasion---mostly punks like the Pistols, Elvis Costello, etc. I've just written a dissertation on new...

new_waver Studying is the main thing you do in university, since that's why you're there. However, the social aspect of uni is very important, too---it's really easy to get depressed and overly stressed if the only thing you do is study all the time (trust me, I learned...

When I was in school we had a good orchestra and a good band and a good choir. So I thought we should have gotten together and played Beeethoven's 9th.

new_waver I always wanted to sing 'O Mio Babbino Caro' and 'Un Bel Di', but I never got a chance to. I also always wanted to sing 'Der Holle Rache' (The Queen of the Night Aria), but it's so far out of my range it's not even funny!

new_waver Well, Maria Callas was Greek, so she doesn't count. I guess the most famous Italian singers I know of would be Luciano Pavarotti and Celia Bartoli. Oh, and Andrea Bocelli, of course! Yes, I know they're all opera singers. ;)

new_waver I love cream soups. Sure, they're fattening and not all that great for you but they're so comforting and filling...and they taste wonderful! Potato and leek is a favorite, along with butternut squash, or cream of mushroom. Nice with a slice of toast and a hot...

new_waver Henna might be a good alternative to chemical dyes, although you are limited to red-brown or dark brown, since those are the most common henna dye colors. It might be worth a shot though!

new_waver Garlic? No. As much as I love garlic, it's not meant to be an ice cream flavor. That said, I have eaten wasabi flavored ice cream, so I don't know that I could make fun of someone that likes garlic ice cream.

new_waver My love for ice cream is year-round! Once a group of friends and I walked along a busy road in the cold weather to go to go get ice cream from an outdoor stand. Sure, it was freezing, but it was so tasty I couldn't resist.
