Off topic - I wish I knew why I am getting two identical posts lately. The 'submit' starts and stops. I just switched to a new provider for my...

This is why I am amazed that I am just reading about it now and sharing the info. It sounds like an awesome app to have on one's phone. That young...

As a neighbour, I hereby resolve to ignore the Simple Public Policy forum as the polarization of US politics is beyond my understanding. Mods, can...

Double post

Lucky you with the forests and trails so close to your home. Forest bathing in my back yard among the trees and flowers has been my saving grace...

That video is priceless and delightful to watch, TMS.

Bae, would you please advise what situations arose that triggered this support request; is it used as a 911 equivalent or just getting lost or scary...

Bae, that is good to know. It is such a different approach to navigation and needs to be shared more widely. I just heard about it on CBC news.

That is my preference as well as the tags are annoying, especially the sharp-edged fabric ones.

Rosa, that is a very substantial rant to share. Enjoy your wine!

Thinking very logically and without emotion, will you be selling this unit in the next few years? If yes, people will want more cupboards and the...

It would be easy to have simple bodum with a small kettle. That way you can make tea or coffee in it but not at the same time, of course. ;)

That is a really good frugal find, IL.

Define what you mean by a saint please. I see people who are working with challenging situations, others who hang in longterm under trying...

Tomorrow I am making a loaf of bread. Last spring I made bread so often and loved it so gained 'covid bulge'. I have been holding off making a loaf...

Finally looked up what crack slaw actually is. I am making this with 6 shrimp that need to be eaten up. I could not believe how many have posted...

The Handy Andy man is very special. You are fortunate to have one in your life.

I changed to an online local paper subscription after the paper was tossed onto my driveway and got wet too many times despite the plastic wrap....

Nice, Rosa! DD1 gave me the idea of a spice drawer. Any spot where that might be possible?...

Just a question sort of tied in with this. When people go on retreats to remote places which may or may not have guides, what is the underlying...

DD! sent me this link about our use of time which seems to fit in with the discussion and active simple living. ...

Interesting. When I read that question yesterday about just one day of life, I thought about it and honeslty couldn't imagine doing anything other...

TMS has it right according to this article. Twitter et al are private companies and when you and everyone else signs up you agree to abide by their...

How did you prepare them? I love them deepfried!

I have no relevant expertise but shared life experience. CL, this is a question that a lot of people are asking but from what I am reading, no one...

Lake Erie has quite a substantial ice fishing business through the private marina operators. In order to survive, they test the ice regularly and...

May I add a blog listing that was just sent me? It is an interesting blog in general but he discusses the limitations or challenges of making life...

You have such a clear way of expressing your point lol. I also agree with your point.

As I walk the dog around my neighbourhood, despite the ridiculous housing prices, houses come up for sale and often are sold in a week. Such is...

One judges according to what one learns, experiences or sees around them. That truth is eternal. Some reach beyond that very basic framework and...

When I got annoyed with too many posts that was my signal to take a break from the site. I, alone, am responsible for my reactions, not a...

300 or less count sheets do get pilly very quickly or did years ago before I chose polyester and cotton sheets of higher counts and they last...

I have donated 3 times my usual annual donations so no saving for me. I need so little in food, clothes, etc., and am so comfortable in my home and...

An Instant Pot is a pressure cooker, slow cooker, saute pot, steamer and so on. I bought both my daughters and their DH's an IP and they all ...

OK, folks. There are no absolutes in anything human. It is all shades of grey. I have read several articles where a Black voice is tired of being...

Having had a serving of mac and cheese with carrot sticks and apple for lunch, it will back to pea soup and salad for supper with clementines

Glad to hear that you are having fun with this and reading what you are trying. I will never buy so I can enjoy your efforts.

Made the first mac and cheese in a long time and it was so good. Added green peas and a side of pickled beets.

It is important to step back and recover from the deep disappointment at negative human behaviour. Gradually, you will find that there are more of...

This is really sad. Tammy, your posts are important.

Actually, it is about race but in a form of fear. The reporting of the November and the Georgia vote was about white vs those of colour?; the...

The world/US is more and bigger than St Louis, MO: just saying... Probably should delete this post but...

Sounds wonderful! Did they get to enjoy it for a good length of time. DH made me a dream sewing room when we had a young family but we moved with...

Chicken sandwich and a pear and a clementine

DH and I did that in our early-to-mid-60's, consolidating everything, diversifying investments where needed, all totally transparent, with our full...

A slice of pizza, some homemade coleslaw and grape tomatoes.

OK, I have to ask - what is cat storage? Whoever stores cats?

This whole discussion has been very interesting.

TT, you are smart and capable and know what you are doing. You have a number of supports to think out loud to to clear your thinking, including SLF....

No, I disagree. I do it because that is how I want to spend my life. If they don't, then I respond by removing myself or finding measures to...

I don't think you remember the shock of Trump personally contacting all the contacts for the office of President held by Twitter - both President...

IL, the world has watched how one individual has been able to control, manipulate with enormous help from enablers to bypass the newsmedia by using...

My pantry looks a little like yours but it actually is a 6' closet with folding doors just inside the door from the garage. I have shelves in it for...

Sad comment to read. I see old parts of some cities being restored by young families who have faith in themselves, need a home and slowly build up a...

Good!!!!
