I stumbled across my ex's porn site fetish - he had a user ID and password and website name written on a scrap of paper, and I came home from work a little early and it was left out by the computer keyboard. This then prompted me to actually type in the website, and then look at the history on our computer's browser. I…

I too have read the Dave Ramsey book - the Total Money Makeover. he's got it on sale on his website for $10 right now. http://www.daveramsey.com/store/prod326.html?ictid=hpg.pubtmm.c12

I'm the FFF (Fat Funny Friend). I don't really get bothered by it for the most part- unless we want to go shopping for clothes- THAT's where I see the major difference - and considering I'm broke and have 2 kids, I never have time to do that anymore- but anyway.... I think the one time it really hurt my feelings was when I…

the reason for the 2 dimes: if you were just given the $53.00 you would have given back in change $4.83 if you were given $54.00 then you would have given back in change $5.83 - so this does make sense to give them the 2 dimes to get back a bill and "less" change. I do this all the time, and get the same blank look, but I…

Actually got this recipe from someone else on MFP over a year ago, but have tweaked some of it for my family. Hope you enjoy as much as we do! Spaghetti Squash Lasagna 1 Spaghetti Squash 1 jar Marinara (or your favorite spaghetti sauce) 1/2 pkg cottage cheese (16 oz) 4 cups mozzarella (this depends on how much cheese you…

Taco Soup in the slow cooker (AKA: Crockpot) You can make this with ground beef instead of turkey, and if you would like you can use less water to make it thicker- it's like a chili with corn- the Rotel and the taco seasoning give it the bite, but I just add a little lite sour cream- it's not overly spicy - I just have…

I think one of my worst experiences was at a Tony Roma's in town (which has since closed) went there with my boyfriend at the time, and tried to order our food- I hate all cabbage products- and the menu stated the meal came with a side and cole slaw. I asked the waitress if I could please substitute the cole slaw for…

I have sold my kids' clothes, toys, and baby accessories at a JBF sale - Just Between Friends- they have them twice a year in our area, and I usually sell about what I spend at the sale for my kids to have new clothes, etc. I also yard-sale when I can for more items to put in the sale, and make a little extra with it that…

Roasted chicken in a slow cooker 1 chicken, rinsed and patted dry seasoning- use whatever you like - I usually use lemon pepper and garlic salt, and sometimes get more creative. Today I used a little pepper, onion powder, garlic salt, and paprika. season your chicken- in the cavity, and on the outside, place in the slow…

not sure if all of you that love the Walking Dead are aware, but there is a Walking Dead Fans group on MFP - if you haven't already, you should join! :happy:

one of our family favorites: ham slices with a little cream cheese spread on it (use the reduced fat ones) and wrap it around a pickled asparagus. I usually cut them in half, and put a toothpick through them- but our whole family loves them. I usually make them the day before and just keep them refridgerated. it also helps…

well, as an update, my sister did find a boy Cabbage Patch baby- and has purchased it and is sending it to him for Christmas. I'm sure my husband will get over it - he usually doesn't care about what the boys play with too much- the toy kitchen I bought from a yard sale to re-sell in the local baby sale is in our basement…

<This is my son - he's not even 2 years old yet. thanks for all the comments and suggestions. :)
-
thanks- I might try this approach. I'm pretty sure this was more about hubs following how he was raised with his dad, and not about our son - but think this is a great approach- since there's only my sister and myself, and I took Welding in High School - my dad supported all the "guy" stuff I wanted to do- and I just liked…

He has an older brother, who at daycare was the love of all the little girls, and often had to be the dad and play house. They have no sisters, all the toys we have are cars and trucks, etc. They have a work bench, and "tools" and every BOY toy you could imagine- remember I have 4 - yes, 4 brothers, and guess what?! They…

The Walking Dead Grimm Mike & Molly I do like the Talking Dead too. Chris Hardwick is hilarious.

I just saw this yesterday - and I did enjoy the movie, glad it was a rental from the library tho. I'm not a huge fan of Kristen Stewart, I hope I'm not torched for that- but as Bella, she's great, but her voice, I don't know, and there's just something about her- she's great for certain roles, I just don't know if she has…

we came from the East side of the state, so didn't see the bigfoot statue. :cry: We did eat at the Beren Haus (I think) on the 8th - had a schnitzel there- the schnitzel was good, but the spaetzle at home is better- there's a restaurant in Spokane called Das Stein Haus that makes homemade spaetzle that is AWESOME!! our…

not sure where you'll be in AZ, but we went to this with the nephews - had fun for a day there. http://www.goldfieldghosttown.com/ If you go to CA, be sure to check out this if you're near it: http://www.nps.gov/redw/index.htm the Redwoods are neat!!! if you go to Oregon, and are near the coast by Newport, OR - check out…

on Talking Dead they said that the season would begin again on Feb 10th. Andrea is crazy for not leaving with Michonne this time. that dude is crazy!! So freaked out that they got Daryl- and seriously - the perimeter of the prison has a HUGE hole in it- no one saw that as an "issue?" Loved how Carl is taking charge so…

I'm going to put in a few suggestions- places we've been - bear in mind I haven't been South much, or Back East a whole lot, but a few places in the PNW... FYI - we like cheesy and cheap- so we'll go to lots of stuff if it looks interesting, fun, or free....lol One of our trips we went from Chicago- (def visit the Field…

hmmm.. 3 random facts about me: 1. My husband and I were penpals when he was in the Army - he just picked out my letter to "any service member" and we began writing letters to each other. 2. I lived in 3 different states within a 12 month period- Washington, Oregon, Montana. 3. I took welding in High School -2 years of it-…

maybe they don't wait and bury their dead- Andrea and Michonne apparently didn't know they turn after dying from "natural" causes either- only if you were bitten or scratched - and they don't typically stay around someone long enough for them to turn after dying from something non-Walker related.

My husband was also in Kuwait- things I sent him - snack mixes- he likes the spicy ones- home made treats - mostly cookies without any chocolate in them- (melt factor) - baby wipes- Hot Tamales (the candy- but put the box in gallon ziploc bags) sometimes a card assortment- so they can send other people cards- b-days, thank…

a lot of the survivors are half mental it seems- they all have issues.... is anyone else creeped out by the town? I mean the whole bike riding, and strolling around like it's Wysteria lane?? it just seems really vulnerable to me... I dunno.
