    How are you cooking your turkey?

    I cooked mine in a bag last year. It was good, but I wanted something a little more challenging this year. I got a 19.5lb free range bird from a local farmer. I'm following this recipe, and it's been soaking in the brine since yesterday! I hope it turns out ok. Brined and Roasted Turkey Recipe ...

    why do my dogs have fleas when they're on frontline?

    They've never had this problem before. It must be a really bad year for fleas or something. A few weeks ago, I was 6 days late with the frontline, and I found a few fleas on Caesar, and then I found one crawling on me! (I pinched its ugly little head off of course.) At that point, we did a few...

    hair dryer attachments

    Do any of you guys use hair dryer attachments? I had to get a new hair dryer because my old one (which lasted me like 10 years!!) stopped working right in the middle of drying my hair 20 minutes before i had to be at work... that was the worst. My hair was ginormous that day. So I got a new...

    what kind of comforter do you use?

    People whose dogs sleep in their bed with them... do you have a special kind of comforter on your bed that doesn't get totally ruined with dog? We've had our comforter for about a year and a half and it doesn't look good anymore at all. Of course we made the mistake of getting a cream colored...

    Caesar has a bump

    I don't know what it is. It's on his left thigh, it sticks out, and it's about the size of a grape. It's not tender, although it seemed like it was when we first noticed it a couple days ago - or at least he didn't really want it to be touched. Now I can mess with it a bunch and he just lays...

    what should I read next?

    don't ask questions, just tell me what I should read next. I just finished a bunch of Robin Hobb's books, including the farseer trilogy, the liveship traders, and the tawny man series. Before that I read the name of the wind. I think I'm done with fantasy for a little bit though, or maybe I'm...

    ugh... need vibes, advice welcome

    So as I've mentioned before, I'm switching jobs. My contract at my current job states that I have to give 3 months notice, so I did, even though it's an outragous amount of time lol, but I'm also working part time at my new job in the process. Old job is now giving me some scheduling issues that...

    bathing cats

    lizzybeth's kitten thread got me thinkin'... Do people actually bathe their cat? What about indoor cats? I mean, my white cat keeps himself pretty clean, and any attempts we've ever made at bathing him resulted in a very unhappy cat who hid who-knows-where for days. We do brush him a couple...

    news

    I turned in my letter of resignation today! I've been planning this for a while now and have a new job lined up, and a lot of people at work already know I've been planning to leave, but I'm still nervous what everyone's reaction will be. I haven't burned any bridges or anything. My letter was...

    is this not fair?

    Ok, we're still trying to find a new tenant for our apartment. I posted in the ad that dogs were allowed as long as they're fixed, trained, not left in the yard all day, have references from previous landlord and vet, etc. The only person so far that has been interested in the apartment was...

    sooo... awesome.

    I think I found my new job. I had the interview today. I was there for 4 hours!! I have the potential to make quite a bit more than I'm making now if I'm motivated and productive, which is awesome. I'm really excited. I hope it works out. I'm afraid to quit my current job, but I really think...

    3 runaway dogs

    3. That's how many runaway dogs I caught this weekend. The first was yesterday, a puppy, he was wearing a collar but no tags. He was weaving in and out of traffic, almost asking to be hit. Luckily he was friendly and small, because I didn't have a leash with me. We pulled over and I said hello...

    renting with pets

    We own an apartment that will be empty after June for the first time since we've had it, so now we have to find a new renter. Our current tenant has an a-hole of a german shepherd that has done a lot of damage to the yard and our new fence. I WANT to allow dogs in the rental, but it was sort of...

    what should I plant?

    I want to plant some stuff along the side of my house. I want something that will look nice, but that I won't have to mess with a whole lot. I would prefer some things that flower, and that look nice throughout the summer. But I am open to any idea. Should be something that does ok in shade...

    bad day

    I was in a car accident today. Apparently. So I started this new job where I go to people's houses for their health insurance company and do these health assessments. I just got out of one, was driving down her tiny little road thinking "Man this should be a one way street" but there...

    You know you facebook too much when....

    You try to find the "like" button for threads that you like instead of actually posting a comment. Or worse, you try to "like" something that someone said in real life, and you only just catch yourself from saying "Like!" or "I like this." :rofl1: oh man. I think I have a problem.

    do you clip coupons?

    Do you guys clip coupons? Are you a hardcore coupon clipper that matches coupons to store deals and uses all the store rewards available (extra care bucks, register rewards, etc.)? Or do you just clip randomly whenever you see something you buy often? If you do clip coupons, HOW do you organize...

    photoshop people...

    Can anyone crop the background out of this picture and make it into a neutral background? I can't figure out how to do it. I'm not very good with editing photos though. Your help would be really appreciated. The more professional it looks, the better.

    my best friend told me I shouldn't have kids

    I think she was joking. But she said it about 4 times the other day so I think she was part serious. I watched her 17 month old for her. Btw, I have NO experience with kids.. especially babies. I did a good job I think - at least the kid was alive and well when she was returned and I don't think...
