    favorite apple?

    I like Fuji's or Pink Lady. I had a chance to try some new varieties last fall at a local orchard (I live in the middle of apple country). Look for Autumn Glory - it's amazing! The other upcoming new variety is Cosmic Crisp. I don't know how long it will be before it hits the major markets...

    In 500 years.....

    I have not idea but just thinking what my Dad, who just turned 90 has been able to see in his lifetime is amazing. He grew up on a wheat farm with no electricity or indoor plumbing, his grandma lived on their farm in a sod house. He was in the navy, got a degree in industrial engineering and...

    If a Restaurant was dirty looking

    We have an acquaintance that owns a bar. It's run down and dirty and basically a "one man show". He's bar maid and cook. Food is great. I just block out the dirty tables with lunch remains on them at dinner time and I make it a point to never look in the kitchen when we go there...

    Any husky owners here?

    My son's husky is off his food this week. Was sick throwing up on Saturday was better Sunday but wouldn't eat his food. He'll eat canned chicken and other "people food" but will pick through it if you mix with his dog food and just spit his dog food out. I told DS to go buy some other type of...

    Do You Eat Organic?

    I don't eat organic unless there is nothing else available. I've financed organic farming operations (some of the largest in my state in fact). They only do it for the money, even the farmers don't believe it is better for them. I figure if they don't eat it themselves and don't believe it's...

    ROAD TRIP ~~ Miami to the Keys

    DH and I stayed for a week in a little 1 bedroom home off of Duval Street that I rented off VRBO. It was great as we had our own kitchen, it was walking distance to everything on Duval, and it was quiet. We did Truman's house and Hemmingways. Also did the tram/trolley tour - can't remember...

    What do you think of timeshares?

    Glad to see you are recinding. We just unloaded our Worldmark/Wyndham ownership. We had originally bought into Trendwest and had 6,000 points annually. You can save points for 3 years. Allowed us a full week - every other year with a 1 or 2 bedroom unit. When Wyndham bought out Worldmark...

    Parents--help me understand ADD/ADHD

    My younger DS has ADD with hyperfocus. He had issues in 2nd and 3rd grade and finally by 5th grade I figured out that he had 9 of 10 common traits of ADD. I went to his pediatrician and test were done and surveys filled out by his teachers. Doctor finally gave me a trial dose of Adderal for...

    Rain predicted for entire length of vacation

    So go to the store and buy several $0.99 rain ponchos and take them with you to the park. When it rains, parks clear out but many rides still operate. We had the best times during rain storms. No lines anywhere and walked on to every ride we wanted to do.

    Food Store - Shop Play & Win Monopoly tickets - Did you win anything ?

    Nope. I still have a little stack of them I haven't even opened. Probably should check them. At this point I literally have all but one in each category :sad2:

    Sister Wives

    This popped up on my facebook feed under a "Sister Wives Secrets" link...Meri has since moved out of the Las Vegas cul-de-sac she was living in, purchasing a bed-and-breakfast in Utah in late 2017. She rarely returns to Vegas, only coming for family events or when TLC needs her there for an...

    Sister Wives

    Just welcomed my first grandbaby a couple of weeks ago. Poor DIL was induced because her water broke and was in labor for 34 hours before they decided to do a c-section. I couldn't believe that Maddy would risk the home birth. So many things can go wrong. If she really was in labor for 72...

    Sister Wives

    When Kody and Meri were with the therapist it really felt like Meri wanted to fix their relationship but Kody had already moved on. He clearly isn't interested. Sad really because he has 3 other wives to go to but Meri is on her own. She's kind of stuck unless she takes the initiative and...

    When is a Business a Business?

    If she is selling her baked goods - it's a business and she should be having her kitchen inspected by the heath department.

    Sister Wives

    I agree that I'm not sure I'd go sign up to take health/weight loss advice from Janelle. I hate to say it but I've noticed that she looks like she's gained her weight back. I really like her though and she seems like the one that has her "stuff" together - much more than the other wives.

    Natalie Wood

    By all accounts she was terrified of water and not a good swimmer. I don't think she untied the dingy and tried to get in herself. I think they had a fight and either Robert intentionally or unintentionally got her into the water and she drowned. The story of her trying to leave or retying the...

    Super Bowl Predictions?

    I don't feel that I'm being "righteous" or "trendy". If the players that chose to kneel had a solid message and were actually using their platform to promote their cause and working toward a solution to what they feel their kneeling during the anthem is bring attention to - I would support them...

    Super Bowl Predictions?

    Chalk me up as another former football fan that won't be watching this year. It will be first time in a very long time that I haven't watched the Super Bowl.
