Red or White

casablynn @casablynn (149) • United States 30 Sep 07

Which wine do you prefer, red or white? Do you drink both or just one type? Do you like to be adventurous and try something new or do you like to stick with what you know you like already?

saraho My tip would be to make your display as interesting as possible with multiple levels. I use boxes that paper comes in and then place a piece of wood on top and cover everything with a table cloth. Also make sure to cover all your tables with a cloth. Greet...

saraho I think that society is slowly changing its views on parenting in that it is more acceptable to not have children than it used to be. In the past, you were very much an outcast if you did not wish to procreate. I suspect that there were many individuals in the...

Do you like macaroni and cheese? Do you like to make your own or buy boxed macaroni and cheese? What brand do you like? I like Annie's organic shells and cheese

saraho I love mac and cheese made from scratch. If I do buy the boxed kind it has to be kraft and I always add extra slices of american cheese. It's a heart attack in a box really. :)

Crafts in the Thrift Store

suscan @suscan (1955) • United States 26 Sep 07

Several times when I have been to the Thrift store, I have seen hand made items there for sale. Doesn't it seem a shame that someone's hard work ends up in the Thrift store? It could be that the person passed on and their stuff...

saraho I don't know if donating crafts to a thrift store is such a sbad thing. By donating art and craft items to a thrift store, you are givining those less fortunate a chance to purchase art that they can afford and enjoy. Also, many thrift stores use the money...

Sarah1977 @Sarah1977 (495) • United States 28 Sep 07

Okay...this might be long, so bear with me please. My sister is married to a man named "Daniel" who basically believes that he is NEVER wrong. He has a very close friend named "Bob". Bob lives a few states away from my sister and...

saraho It sounds to me that your sister needs to be very up front with Bob. The next time he tries anything she needs to stop and say, "this is not okay with me. Touch me one more time and I will call the police". This is your sisters home as well and she can kick...

saraho A 4 year old does not have the mental capacity yet to "try to get out of school" so that is not an issue here. Trying to understand what the cause of a tummy ache is (constipation, virus, etc) from a 4 year old can be very challenging. The school was most...

saraho I do agree that surounding yourself with positive and supporting people will help, but depression (in many cases) and ADHD are the result of a chemical imbalance in the brain and the medications are meant to help regulate these chemicals. The medications can...

saraho I can only imagine how difficult it must be for you. I would encourage you to see a counselor and or psychiatrist. Many counselors offer services on a sliding scale and even for free. Contact your local health department for referrals. Also, it is true that...

saraho You should really only use images that are your own or considered "in the public domain" (usually 1930's or earlier). With that said, if you clip a photo from a magazine and then alter it enough so that it becomes unrecognizable as the original image, no one...
