  1. I complain because my short hair is now long enough for a decent-sized ponytail, but I really feel bad for men, because it’s obviously much harder for the majority. Personally, I’d go for the “give husband scissors” option because I abhor man buns, and I have no idea what an Alice band is. I mean, Mike is very trustworthy, right? I’m sure he could do a respectable job to keep the hair out of your eyes and off your shoulders.
  2. We get them too, and sometimes they’ve gotten inside.
  3. I started thinking after reading this as to what kind of cheese my mom uses when she makes lasagna. As I couldn’t remember, I asked her. She alternates layers of cottage cheese - two - with a layer of mozzarella along with the meat and noodle layers. No ricotta in sight. I have to say her lasagna is very creamy and very delicious.
  4. Florida heat and now Texas heat... 🤔
  5. @kbois Sorry to hear your watermelon was no good. It’s frustrating when fruit looks good but is flavourless after going to the trouble of preparing it. At least you had the cantaloupe, so that’s a victory for you. PS: I hope your wrist feels better soon.
  6. Speaking of giant bugs, there was a huge one buzzing around the window last night. Thank goodness the screen didn’t have any holes in it, because I’m sure it was looking for a way in... *shudders*
  7. Yes, but only in Florida, because it’s warmer than here in Canada.
  8. Gee, K, I didn’t have a problem dealing with chia seeds. I think it may be just you....
  9. If it works, there’s no reason not to use it.
  10. Never thought of using cottage cheese in eggs, it’s always been cheddar cheese for me. May need to experiment...
  11. Cottage cheese has a very different taste when it’s puréed vs. when it’s lumpy. It’s been a while, but I was curious, so I tried it to see what it tastes like. This is me when it’s in its lumpy state:
  12. That’s what got me thinking about this again. I’m going grocery shopping tomorrow, so I’m putting cottage cheese on my list.
  13. One of the things I like as part of my lunch which I learned from a health conscious doctor I worked with years ago is this: Mix equal parts any flavour yogurt and puréed cottage together. I usually used a single serve yogurt with the same amount of cottage cheese. Why puréed cottage cheese you ask? Well, that’s how he did it, and besides I can’t abide cottage cheese in its normal lumpy state. I puréed the cottage cheese in my mini food processor and then put it all back in its original container. It kept well like that in the fridge for the days - probably used within a week - I needed it to. Not only is it nutritious, it’s delicious, refreshing, and filling. That’s my two cents for today.
  14. Found and ordered. Someday, I may try making the bread, but for now I’ll try it on my granola cereal and/or refrigerator oatmeal. Thanks, tim. Reading the label, it looks to be a good source for a lot of good things.
  15. Thanks, I didn’t know what they were, either. If one was to buy this in a grocery store, I’m thinking they would be found in the organic food section, yes?
  16. Don’t laugh, my mom had an 8 track player in her car. Those were the days...
  17. I’m reading these comments about playlists, and for some reason this one - which I loved when I was a kid - popped into my head. Anyone else remember this one?
  18. Read an article about Paul Hogan today and one of the comments was about this line he uttered in Crocodile Dundee. Seeing this scene in my mind’s eye had me chuckling. For those of us old enough to remember, here it is. PS: Paul Hogan is 81 now. https://youtu.be/dSnosk4tWrg
  19. Am I weird that I read this and had a vision of bell peppers dancing on your grave? Albeit, far, far, far in the future. You know when veggies are sentient beings...
  20. I read this word and it’s definition and the word confidante came to mind. Who knew? They can be used interchangeably. I learned more than planned today. Excellent word choice @Myr.
  21. Yep, that’s on my wish list. You’ve made me hungry, now. Good thing it’s almost dinner time.
  22. I don’t know when, but someday, I’m getting a cast iron frying pan, because well, I just want one. I think it would be a very useful item in the kitchen.
  23. The one we had was quite large, so that’s probably the reason my parents didn’t keep it.
