I have an android tracfone. Perfect for my needs.

Thanks for the website, KayLR. Bookmarking it!!

Thanks, thinkgreen. I just got a can of diced tomatoes. I don't have a pressure cooker, but may actually try this in the crockpot.

LOL. Oh, that my waistline could survive this option!

So is this organization for needy pets also helping the needy humans? Is the woman still living on the porch? Is the man still homeless? Are other...

Found a gallon jar of lentil and soy beans each. Guess I need to hop over to the food/recipes thread and find some recipes. :)

That is so sad. I guess there might be something to the fact that they died doing something they wanted to do.

LOL - that is funny! Loved that miniseries as well.

Love the devotion and all the tree pictures. My dd got a little oak sapling from graduation and planted it in the front yard (where we had a rotting...

My Christmas decorations peaked about 5 big plastic bins. I'm now down to two and one of those is mostly filled with the kids' stuff. I hope to...

Amusing and true!! I like to think I'm a want-to-be combination of all of the above. Thanks for sharing.

All I know is that right now I am in too much house. Have "things" going on for at least the next 3-4 years, but my hope is to dramatically downsize...

That is fabulous!!!!

I hate wasting food as well. When our fridge broke a couple months ago, I made a point of getting a smaller model (originally bought too big by...

Four large black garbage bags! Most of it is 31 skeins of black chunky yarn - lol. I've already started an afghan for my child. College furniture...

Glad it all worked out for you!

There is an annual pow-wow across the state line from where I live. It was actually last weekend but I could not attend this year. They always have...

Thanks, razz! I'll check this out.

So true.

That is a beautiful old building! I think it will make a nice home! Congrats for the sale and also to the buyers.

I had been doing this over the summer... trying to get through stuff in the pantry. I used to stock up really well and then hardly use what I had. ...

$22 including tip. I usually get my hair cut once a year... really short! Then spend the rest of the year letting it grow out and my dd giving me...

Sounds like the kind of challenge I would enjoy but the timing is not good right now. There are 4 in the household and my average weekly grocery...

1968 - I was 10 years old, a kid. I was enjoying all the things kids did - played outside with friends, road bikes way further from home than my...

A friend had something similar to this in Korea. It was very helpful when reading the directions on the washing machine - lol.

I love the idea of making the list and having things wait their turn! Sounds like things are progressing well. Continued good luck with everything.
