Actually what I am getting at, do you shop thrift stores consistently to find clothing? Not just because of deals but why not buy something already made? It is like the dog pound for stuff. Post your finds here! I will have some purchases posted later. I went on a Salvation Army binge. But I lose buying clothing that I like but someone else no longer wanted. I donate perfectly good clothing I am tired of, doesn't fit me right, no longer current style, etc. I am reconsidering my never...

I thought it would be great to have a thread specifically for sharing things about our children that make us laugh, and the things they do that make us proud. Of course they don't have to do any thing to make us love them or proud of them in general, but sometimes they just add the icing on the cake. (If you want to, add a picture of them too. :teeth:)

Howdy! I like to eat fruitcake except for one thing. I'm not crazy about the weird peels and embalmed cherries. I like my fruit to resemble....well, fruit. My granddad used to make a delicious alternative to fruitcake. Unfortunately, I never wrote the recipe down--not that there really was one. He put in "enough" of everything, and cooked it "long enough." Anyways, I sort of remembered some of the stuff he put in, dug around the web 'till I found a similar recipe, then played with it...

Check out Pattern Rescue. You can donate to them patterns you no longer want, and get from them patterns that others have donated. I have been doing exchanges with them for about a year and have found a great home for some unwanted patterns and received some great patterns in return. If you don't have anything to donate in patterns, you can still get free patterns from them if you just at least pay the postage. Best deal in town.

Hey all. I'm busy "detoxing" from a botched "define the relationship" conversation with a girl I had a bit of a summer fling with just a few days ago. Here's the relevant background information, which I must sputter in utmost vulnerability. First, attracting girls is not a problem for me. Girls have been interested in me most of my life. I know how to get their attention. I can read body language. I can flirt back and forth. Sometimes, I've done all this without meaning to do so. Which...

Well, I'm just curious how everyone on here likes their steak* cooked (and what they put on said steak and serve it with)? Personally, I love my steaks coated with hot sauce (This habanero stuff I've got works pretty good for that. Heck, if I'm crazy enough next time I might mix in a drop of Dave's Insanity next time) then grilled Blue Rare and served with fries. Seriously, just sear the outside for a couple minutes on high heat and it's ready to go for me. :yummy: *Assuming you like...

Just trolling for some insight and objective opinions. I am very unhappily married to a non-Christian. He is a drunkard, a compulsive gambler and is verbally, emotionally and financially abusive. His only positive attribute is that he is employed, so he mooches less than if he didn't have a job. Yes I am aware of the prohibitions against unequally yoked marriages. The sad part of this is that I married him at a time in which I was very cynical about God and quite frankly was living in...

I know from ThinkGeek that you can get caffeine in pretty much anything these days. I'm assuming that extends to . . . pie. At least I hope so! Does anyone here know how I'd infuse a pie with caffeinated goodness -- in a way that wouldn't adversely affect its flavor, and in a way that I can control the amount of caffeine so that I can keep it at a safe level(like no more than a cup of coffee worth in a slice)?

SOURCE. No idea about what this website is about, but found this article on Digg and read it and some of the comments. Just would like some opinions from all sides of the issue. I tend to disagree with much of the feminist movement. My blunt opinion is that this lady and her book are garbage. She claims teaching to stay pure is bad for kids to learn, I think her book is likely bad for kids to learn. And yes I haven't read it, but let's be opinionated here shall we?

I have enjoyed knitting for quite a few years now. But having spent a week or so with my sister, who is a very experienced lace knitter, and even a spinner of fine wool, I am enamoured with knitting lace. It really is no different than regular knitting. You just use very fine wool and small needles to make beautiful shawls and scarves and even tablecloths. I have finished 2 scarfs, one I knit a few years ago from a pattern that my sister invented, and another that I just finished a week or...

I've observed this phenomenon for some time, now, and it seems as though one of the "tests" women have of whether their men love them is whether they'll lie to them to make them feel good. Case in point: "Does this dress make me look fat?" Yes, I know many women who say, "I don't ask that", but it seems that most women have some question they ask that they already know the answer to, but either want someone to tell them otherwise (so they feel better about themselves), or want their man to...

I was recently speaking to a friend of mine who next month is going to celebrate 54 years of marriage and asked him for his advice to a single guy. I was told three C's. The first is communication. Be sure to talk regularly to your spouse about issues. The next is conviction. Divorce is not an option. Whatever problem comes along, you work it out. Finally, compassion. Don't try to change her. Just accept her as she is. Of course, he gave me a lot more detail, but I'm simply giving the...

Of course, I could write a whole essay on the philosophy of collecting and collectables and the ultimate value of such things, and I do think some people take the value of some things too seriously.
