Among different vegetables potatoes are the most useful of the lot

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (19703) 16 Dec

Potatoes are the most useful vegetables. Bengal is the highest producer of potatoes in India. Diabetic patients avoid eating them. India has designated them as essential commodities. In winter they grow very well.

Does adding an image to discussion encourage more mylotters to respond?

Anish Asokan @RevivedWarrior (2476) • India 17 Dec

I added an image for the first time to one of my previous discussions and it generate good responses. And that got me thinking about adding images to discussions and the responses it generates. I do agree visual content quickly...

B It can grab attention. In a way, it can make your discussion stand out. But like you said, it’s not just about the image—it’s how well it connects to the topic or the topic of your discussion itself that really encourages people to respond.

Pitstop @pitstop (14099) • Australia 15 Oct

This is the second waterfall I've been to India the last month. This one was much smaller, but hidden away and we were the only ones here. There's something very calming and therapeutic about the sounds of the waterfall. This was...

Waiting for my husband...

Arunima Singh @arunima25 (87854) • Bangalore, India 15 Oct

It's 11 AM here and I am done with my work at school. It's gloomy and pouring outside. It's been pouring since the last night. My colleague picked me in her car in the morning. I don't like to drive in such rainy weather, as such...

B Good you caught the drainage issue before things got worse—always a hassle when water sneaks in like that. Hope your daughter gets home safely with all this rain. Over here, the weather's quite the opposite—sunny.

Giving our plant stand a coat of paint

Judy Evans @JudyEv (342179) • Rockingham, Australia 15 Oct

Between us, we’ve given this plant stand a coat of a product which inhibits rusting. My brother made it. Although he was totally blind so couldn’t do the welding or painting, he measured and cut all the pieces. He passed away in...

B That’s a special plant stand! It’s great that you’re keeping it in good shape and preserving those memories of your brother. Hope you enjoy the movie later! I don't think I've watched The Pursuit of Happyness either. Do tell us if you like it.

Our gardener returns after a 5 month break

Always smiling @allknowing (137822) • India 1 Oct

Our gardener said he would be back in 45 days but has just returned after 5 months. Luckily his absence was not missed as heavy rains meant no work in the garden. He is a good worker and work in the garden is now in full swing...

B Sounds like a productive day at rehab! Glad everything went well, but I totally get that soreness after some physical work. At least you had a good meal waiting—sausage gravy and biscuits sounds like comfort food to me!

A new-to-me sculpture on Fremante's wharf

Judy Evans @JudyEv (342179) • Rockingham, Australia 1 Oct

While we were in Fremantle on the wharf, I saw this cute dog made out of dozens of circles of iron. I guess it’s iron or metal of some sort. Perhaps it will be an inspiration to @Fleura who is going to have welding lessons soon....

Do you still post to Facebook?

The Horse @TheHorse (220296) • Walnut Creek, California 22 Sep

When Facebook first came around, I posted there often, as did many of my friends. Over time, I grew less interested. There were lots of "Look how cute/successful my kids are" posts, as well as posts by musicians about "crowd...

Can We Over Hydrate?

celticeagle @celticeagle (168334) • Boise, Idaho 20 Sep

Natural Hair for McDonald's Employees: What?!?

Shavkat @Shavkat (140129) • Philippines 20 Sep

Can you believe it or not, McDonald's employees in Japan are not allowed to dye their hair. It should be natural black hair. In my view, it should not be the basis of hiring an employee to a certain establishment. It is so...
