I've always loved Betsey Johnson swimwear, but it is expensive. Her pieces are always so fun and flirty! I finally bought one for myself this year (the Primrose style) as a reward for getting fit, but then I got pregnant! (VERY HAPPY about that btw!) Oh well, at least I got to wear it in Hawaii for Spring Break! And…

Beauty and the Beat The charming story of a poor girl who just wanted to dance...But would anyone give her the chance to show off her moves?

College/High school nicknames: Rotini, Rock Mom's nickname for me: Chelle Husband's nickname for me: Chellian, or we both call each other 'Nello' I really can't explain how that came about, but it is a term of endearment at in our house!

I always put my shoes on my coffee table when I get home! I don't feel like taking them to the closet yet, and if I put them on the floor, my dog will chew them!

Yikes! Sorry those are huge!

Helga Hufflepuff, the fat little Weegle: Glen Coco (RIP) and my husky, Chim Chim: Jadzia, my giant Maine Coon princess (but we call her Bitties): and last but not least, Chelsea (who you can tell I did not name because it sounds normal):

I have that fear about enclosed water slides! I mean seriously, I am not a big person so the chances of that are very slim, but I cannot help but think, "What if I get stuck?!" Also, I cannot sit or stand under anything hanging from the ceiling or wall, like signs at stores or televisions at bars and restaurants. I am…

Was wondering if this would be on anyone's list! It will definitely be on mine, but I have to think what all my faves are!

If the chance is great enough that I can save one of my pets, I would do whatever it took as long as I was able. One of my cats had Feline Lipidosis, but the doctor said with the correct care she could pull through. I had to feed her through a tube every three to four hours (I would wake up in the middle of the night) for…

Love their names! I have a weenie dog named Helga Hufflepuff!

Sorry, didn't see this reply! I am mostly pain-free, though when the air pressure changes (for changes in temp or rain) I can feel some soreness. It is not bad, and it doesn't impede me in the slightest. The weirdest thing is that I don't have full feeling in my knee, at least not on the surface. Doc says this is common,…

MIne was a new Betsey Johnson bikini for my trip to Hawaii! That was in March, and I was happy to wear it on the beach! :)

To you, these women look: [x ] Just right [ ] Too slim/skinny [ ] Too big/ not slim enough Do you think that these women have a better figure than you? [ ] Yes, and it makes me feel bad about myself and how I look [x ] Just a little [ ] No, I’m happy with the way I look and don’t feel the need to look like the women in…

I was telling my husband about this yesterday! It started at 11:30 at the theatre here, but I had to work so I couldn't go. We are going the see the Avengers tomorrow though, and getting some of the cool Avengers 3D glasses!

College - LSU (don't really follow college ball that much, but when I do I cheer for LSU) NFL - Saints (we will make it through this season!!!) MLB - Rangers NBA - Mavericks NHL - Uh, Stars I guess? MLS - FC Dallas :)

I had ACL surgery back in 2009 (end of June, maybe the 25th?). I had torn my ACL playing soccer when I took a kick to the knee in March. They used a tendon from my thigh (though some surgeons use cadaver) and I was walking without crutches, but with a brace in less than a month. The hardest part was the week immediately…

As long as we stay above the Vicky Mendoza Diagonal, it's all good!

Asparagus - which I actually happened to like!, Erythromycin and Amoxicillin - 2 of the most commonly prescribed antibiotics, and The Sun - I get a mild skin reaction on my hands the first time I am in the sun for an extended time starting in the spring. It is weird, but it goes away in a couple of days.

You are right, this does happen, but I don't think it is necessarily the norm. I do think there are people out there who put more stock into the type of person they are going to marry, as far as values, ethics, beliefs, etc. go. With the exception of one gold-digging woman I have the displeasure of being acquainted with, I…

I get what you are saying, but the question was not whether or not looks matter and whether or not a woman wants a man who can provide for her. Those things can affect who you date and ultimately marry, but the question was weather or not a woman would go after the WEALTHIEST man she could attract or whether a man would go…

I'd say not true, at least in my case. My husband was doing ok when we met, but he was not making the 'big bucks'. I was not attracted to him because of wealth. Now however, he could definitely afford someone much hotter than me (or could pay to make that hot :laugh: ) but he is still very happy with me! I don't think a…

^^^This You should first decide whether or not you would like to dry a hot sake or a cold sake, and then go from there! Also, sake is usually served in a ceramic container into small ceramic cups, so don't expect a large bottle with traditional wine glasses (though sometimes it IS served into small white wine glasses!)

Buffalo Wing Hummus: Ingredients 1 1/2 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed (reserve 1/4 cup of the liquid) 2 cloves garlic 1/8 cup (2 tbsp) tahini 1/8 cup (2 tbsp) fresh lemon juice 3/4 tsp paprika 1 tbsp barbecue sauce 1 1/2 tbsp Frank’s Red Hot (or similar cayenne pepper sauce) 1 1/2 tsp white vinegar 3/4 tsp salt…

I never thought that I would get married because I didn't think there would be anyone that I could stand (or could stand me and my strangeness!) for that long! I didn't meet my husband until I was about 25, and I pretty much knew I was going to marry him. I even told my mom after one of our first dates and she was very…

Will look out for that one! I do watch a few series as well: How I Met Your Mother and Archer. I'd like to start Dr. Who this summer!

I tried a few years ago and I didn't like it, but recently I have started eating it again and I like it! I think it had a lot to do with the large curd and what I was mixing it with. I have been mixing the 2% small curd with diced peaches and pineapples and I eat it almost daily now!

I keep Netflix because of the foreign horror movie selection!

If you don't already have them, get some good quality cookware. As a set, it is often very expensive, but when bought in single pieces (as gifts) it is a very affordable gift! I second the Kitchenaid mixer, especially now that I have learned you can shred cooked chicken with it!

I love your Dax costume! One of our cats is named Jadzia :) Halloween is my absolute favorite thing ever, and there are a few of us that go in a theme. I used to make all of our costumes, but that was really time consuming, so now I only make a few and we buy the rest! Not Halloween, but a showgirl costume for a ball I was…
