I took my son in to the doctor for a hurt toe and the doctor was asking about his medical history. He's 12, never been to the doctor before (except for his well baby visits), rarely sick, so not much...

Then use the yolks in French Toast :) Cook's Illustrated recommends using just the yolks in French Toast so it cooks up less "eggy." I tried that and loved the result.

Can you work 10 hours each on those 2 days?

How long is your little one nursing at a time. My daughter always wanted to take little sips, then go to sleep, then another sip...which stretched into all day long. My midwife told me to stretch out...

I think that too, grocery prices are thru the roof these days!

Yeah, in the winter, we probably keep the inside of our place around 60, maybe 55. And go outside, where it's 10-30 and not so bad. But then we go shopping, where inside the stores it's 70-75, maybe...

We had a fire in August, actually. Then we got lots of sun in September, so got a little spoiled. This week, I've been freezing, just can't get warm. I have a roaring fire right now, even tho it's...

I actually put a new dryer sheet in the pan, then add some water, then let sit a couple hours. The chemicals in the dryer sheet loosen the burnt on gunk. I do sometimes have some (very little) carbon...

We live in the Seattle area and always find lots of rain & winter gear at the Goodwills: REI, Lands End, HH, and others. If you are close to the Goodwill Outlet (where everything is sold in bins and...

We still use mail for bills. I guess I don't feel comfortable paying online for some things, and our utilities don't have online payment yet.

I use media mail a lot. I get most of my books from...

I've read 2 of the volumes. Just ones I was interested in, I'd never make it thru the whole set. But the ones I read were fascinating, I learned so much.

We have the Corelle but also the kids to go with it. I like that I can stack so many of them in a small space.

If I didn't have Corelle, I'd get Fiesta ware. Or restaurant supply white, we have...

Those car carts are so hard to steer, ugh.

I don't get out much, so I actually enjoy my time in the grocery store, even when I have the kids with me. I seem to have conversations with different...

I do all 3. The side way is faster when there are kids in the cart. My daughter is always hanging on the end, the big heavy carts won't tip. I also have to keep the cart from being too close to the...

I wouldn't take a cold sales calling job for all the money on earth but a help line would be interesting. Actually, I had a short stint on a newspaper complain line and most people were courteous,...

My neighbor pulls the wood slats off and then uses the slats to build this, that, and everything.

Yeah, the washer itself has really simplified things. Mine is a Whirlpool Cabrio, top loader, but it works much like a front loader. It can fit between 2-3 loads of my old top loader. And uses less...

I don't mind laundry, my mom bought me a HUUUUGE capacity washer and a super nice dryer. The washer spins the clothes very dry, so the dryer only takes about 20 minutes to dry a load. I have 5 kids...

Congratulations!!!

A handful of chocolate chips is my quick and easy desert. When I need something extra fancy, I dip them into a scoop of peanut butter. :)

These days, I think even the high-end ones are low quality. Something is going to break. Actually, the simpler the model, the less will break. It's usually the fancy circuit boards that go out,...

Oh binders! Once in awhile I need a binder for this or that. I got spoiled when I lived near Boeing Surplus, where you could find nice white binders with the plastic pocket (in any size) for 10 cents...

Awesome!

This year, here in the PNW, about 4 days.

The protractor & compass set always baffled me too. By the time you get to the math pages that actually may use it, they are long- gone-missing or broken. I bought a set for my son last year to play...
