Dahlia

Always smiling @allknowing (153841) • India 27 Feb

The petal formation in a dahlia is perfect. There are many colours and sizes on finds in this flower. They are easy to grow given the right climate. The only defect if I might call it is the stem sometimes cannot carry the...

Stopped by an Asian supermarket yesterday with my mom. She asked me to look at eggs for her. The store was selling a dozen eggs for $11.99 and 18 eggs for $17.99. I don’t think they were cage free or organic....

It's like the end of an era for many of us with the closing of these stores.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (52861) 24 Feb

I just read that JoAnn Fabrics are closing over 500 of their fabric/craft stores. They have been opened since 1943 and always had a huge following from crafters and sewers. I always counted on them having what I needed to sew...

Zhang jing xuan Yes, with the development of The Times, fewer and fewer people buy wool, cloth and other things, and more and more people buy finished clothes. When I was a kid, my mom would go to a tailor's shop and make pants. That was more than 20 years ago, and our next...

Sun dried apricots

Always smiling @allknowing (153841) • India 24 Feb

Sun dried apricots may not taste good for eating but they can be used in several sweet dishes such as puddings and cakes. I got a few of these and notice they have been deseeded. They have retained their original fresh colour...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (52861) 24 Feb

Importance of goal setting

BANKIM @banksim (5347) 12 Sep 24

Ambitious goals like “doing your best” are typically far less successful than specific ones like signing up 10 new clients a month or logging 10,000 steps a day. Therefore, as a general rule, whatever goals you establish for...
