I very much enjoy adding ginger root to my stir-fry however too often when I go to use the piece that I have previously purchased I find it unusable mostly due to mold. How much ginger root do you purchase? How do you store...

ycswid Thank you for explaining. I agree it doesn't sound very appealing.

ycswid Thanks for the input. I hadn't heard of brushing with oil prior to freezing. Any idea why that is needed? I certainly love the idea that you can freeze it and use as needed without thawing.

ycswid Sorry to disappoint but it appears to be part of the NASCAR mandate to get racing in other countries. Busch has been to Mexico and will be coming to Canada this year.

ycswid That is very interesting and I'll keep it in mind. I know that I've always enjoyed flat ginger ale when I have an upset stomach. The next time I'll look in the fridge for ginger root first. Thanks for taking the time to post.

I just saw this on the CBC homepage and wondered what mylotters thought of this outcome. http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2007/03/-6/libby-verdict.html Is it what you expected? What does a guilty verdict say about this...

ycswid Interesting perspective although I'm not sure I completely agree with your analogy. If the juror is saying guilty not based on the crime committed then I would say the Judge's charge was incomplete or incorrect as that is what the juror should be basing their...

With this week's qualifying in Atlanta there are only 3 Toyotas in the field. Two of them made it in on time and Jarrett took another (limited) past champions provisional. There were 3 Toyotas that went home including owner...

ycswid You are very welcome... only response, best response :) Nice to see the Toyotas doing better these days, more are making it in. It's also really nice to see Bill Elliot back now that DJ has used up his provisionals. Sorry for the tardy post but after...

I found a very interesting article today. It stated something that I had never heard. You are less likely to overeat if you eat the same thing at one meal. I know that I eat the same breakfast at least 5 days a week but didn't...

ycswid You are most welcome. I know what you mean about easier to clean up. I have found even more so since the original posting that not having variety available is a boost to my weight loss efforts. Thanks for taking the time to post.

As the subject states, do you or have you heard of anyone watching TV stations/movies on your PC? No, I don't mean purchasing software to install on your computer. I mean websites that allow you to watch TV stations by clicking...

ycswid I didn't see anything in that post that referred to IP addresses. Perhaps I missed something but I did read it over. I'm going to have my daughter sign up as my referral and see what happens.

ycswid That may work well for you but in this particular situation the boy is almost 18 so the cost would far outweigh any benefits. We've taken him into our home and are working very hard to try and help him learn new skills. Thanks for your input though.

ycswid That is exactly what we did. He's been with us for almost two weeks. We are trying to get him back on track to finish school and think about what he wants to do with his life. Then he can leave this nest. Thanks for your advice.

ycswid Now that you mention that I've often heard that the best part of a fruit/vegetable is right under the peel. Then that does make sense that they tell us to eat the peel with the fruit. I'm glad to hear your explanation to remind me what I already knew.
