my hubs and i are obsessed with pirates (after watching a few too many episodes of happy tree friends), so here's 2 stories... a few years back we went to our local old time pottery to get a fire pit for my brother's birthday gift. they called up a stock guy to show us where the boxed ones were and when he arrived, he had…

I was in the same boat for a long time. But then I started shopping around and REALLY looking at labels. Most of my veg is fresh, but when I do buy canned I look for and buy only those that say No Added Salt. Lunch meat is a killer. I have found one kind of turkey breast at Costco called Dietz and Watson (under 200 for 2…

you could do what my mom did when she got sick of it. i was in 2nd grade, happily tearing into my gifts when i noticed a price tag from toys r us on a yatzee game. i asked why it had a price tag when santa had all the elves to make everything. she calmly asked me what i thought it meant. after a minute of staring at it i…

I have a strawberry-colored country-shaped (don't ask me which one cuz I don't know) birthmark on my right elbow. I also have a multitude of beauty marks (some people call them moles, but not me) including one just below my left nostril. Funny story... my mom's mom had a wine-colored raised birthmark that took up one whole…

Freshman in high school ('89)... Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville, IN... Poison with my boyfriend. I didn't even like Poison, but wanted to go cuz his dad had gotten us seats in "Celebrity Circle" and I wanted to brag about it to friends who actually liked Poison. Later that year I saw Duran Duran at same venue with my…

underwires that do not punch their way out of their channels. i'm naturally small-busted and actually like non-padded underwire bras. i'm constantly pushing the wires back in on all of my bras.

is it a night wedding? if so, i'd go with #1 all the way! if it's an afternoon wedding, i'd do #2 (a little classier). #3 are nice, but a little boring and expected. edited to say i've changed my vote after seeing everyone's comments about your legs with #2. i went back and looked at the pics. they're right; those shoes…

for those who like bacon and maple syrup, try both with some vanilla ice cream (a la denny's baconalia sundae). it's awesome! i make my own at home with no added sugar ice cream, 1 T of crumbled bacon & 1 T of syrup. yum! something i used to eat as a kid was ultra-thin cut beef patties on buttered raisin bread. i haven't…

I love the show and I love him! (Seriously, he's on my list.)

I surprised my then fiance with a Vegas wedding after repeatedly telling him that we were not going to get married there! Got a dress (and made my veil to match), got him a tux, got rings, flowers, the whole nine yards. A friend flew in to witness for us. What sucked is that both of our families knew about it, but no one…

BUMP :tongue:

LOVE THIS ONE!!

fooducate finally came out for android (previously iphone only). scan an item's barcode at the grocery. it gives you a grade rating for nutrition and suggests alternatives with better grades.

My hubs shaves his legs and his pits and waxes the little bit of chest and lower back hair that he has. Before everyone starts in... he was a swimmer thru high school and college. He got so used to the feeling that anything else just feels weird to him. His family and friends all make fun of him, but it doesn't change his…

Hubs and I rented a house in Colorado for 2 weeks and road-tripped it there. He tried snowboarding, we both snowmobiled, spent a lot of time in the hot tub (outside in February) and just spent a lot of time alone together. Went to an awesome zoo where we got to go inside the penguin habitat (he also fed hippos and we both…

I have a pair of the Reebox (that I had customized with my nickname and my color choices for an Xmas gift). I definitely notice the difference between them and my "normal" athletic shoes. However, I recently began seeing a chiropractor who has banned me from wearing them, especially while exercising. She also doesn't want…

I have never taken illegal drugs, not even pot.

For those concerned with the olive oil... 1) It's a good fat. 2) If it's strictly the calories you're worried about, get a Misto ($9.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond, plus you can use a 20% Off coupon on it). When I bought mine, I pumped it up and measured the first spray into a measuring spoon. A full spray (from the time you…

Sons of Anarchy, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, The Walking Dead... all among my favorites!!

Since I started on the weight loss/healthy eating kick, all I ever seem to want are Dunkin' Donuts glazed yeast doughnuts. One day I commented to Hubs that I could easily eat a dozen at one time. He didn't believe me (cuz I've never been one to overeat like that), so I promised him that when I hit my goal weight, I would…

oatmeal and brown rice!

I bought the Misto from Bed Bath & Beyond. $10 - 20% coupon = $8 before tax. To really know how much I was using with it, the first spray out of the bottle went into a measuring spoon. From the time the spray starts to when just air comes out is 1/2 of a teaspoon. I normally use 2 full sprays for a large frying pan. I love…

Although I've never seen anything I am a believer. Kinda strange since I'm also atheist, but who knows? Anyways... my great-grandmother was an immigrant from Yugoslavia and brought lots of her beliefs over with her. Every door and window in her house had garlic hanging over it to ward off vampires. And when my grandfather…

And any good Italian cook will take some of that starchy pasta water and incorporate it into their sauce.

You absolutely did the right thing. Just imagine if she had worn it out of the house and someone else commented on how it was too tight... you would've been in even more trouble for not having told her yourself. I was a retail *kitten* for many, many years and always told customers the brutal truth about the clothes they…

i'm way into zombies, so mine is my zombie avatar from the game plants vs. zombies. my hair was that color at the time! and i change my ticker with every 10 pounds lost to represent something that weighs that much!
