Okay for all of those Filipinos out there or people who enjoy Filipino food. Which do you think is better the delicious lumpia or pansit? To be honest I rather have pansit because it fills me up and is easier to make than lumpia....

casarivasplata That depends on what kind. I like both, equally, depending on what is on the table. If it's pancit palabok, that is my favorite but it can't have squid in it. As for lumpia, I like the bigger size, about 1 inch in diameter, with more vegies than meat. Even...

casarivasplata I love beading, in particular, bead weaving. But the problem is that I don't have time to do it. I feel like I'm lacking something when I dont get a chance to be creative. People have told me I should sell some of my jewelry but I believe I don't have enough...

casarivasplata No. I do not feel fear of lonliness. Being alone does not mean being lonely. I still feel that others care and love me whether or not I am with them. I have a personality that seems to attract attention, but attention does not always mean fulfillment also....

I went to the library yesterday and picked up three books on wilderness and disaster survival. I showed my Mom my impressive stack of books when I got home, she read the titles her eyes bulged out of their sockets. "What are...

casarivasplata Kudos to you for writing a book. I have many ideas for books, the ability and desire to write, but not the time. Seems the research I do is to help with my kids' school work or for my home business. Maybe when the kids are out on their own, I'll have the time...

Yesterday I went looking for a Macrame Plant Hanger. Do you think I could find one? I used to make my own years ago (like 30?) but it's been so long since I've done one that I've forgotten how. Anyway, I figured it would be easier...

casarivasplata Believe it or not, I saw them in Home Depot. I don't know if they all stock them, but I saw them in a Northern California store. They were located in the indoor plant section, near the indoor decorative pots; not outside with the big pots & outdoor landscaping...

In my case, weaving fibers. I look at the sari silks, angora rabbit fur, velvet remnants, merino wool, even the recycled t-shirt yarns, just so many beautiful and wonderful things out there to try to weave. The textures, the...

casarivasplata Beading supplies, including beads & cording (silk, satin, leather, threads, fibers, wire, etc.) I like bead weaving, cord weaving or a combination of the two. It takes a lot of time and patience but I love seeing the end result and thinking, "Wow, I made...

casarivasplata Depends on what kind of noise and what time of night. If they are just speaking loudly and the walls are paper thin, you might want to let them know that you can hear them through the walls. It might be embarrassing enough for them to tone it down. If it's...

casarivasplata I don't know what country you're in, and every country probably has their own foundations for different wildlife protection. There is one that you can check on to see how you can participate in saving wild animals: WWF or the World Wildlife Fund. If you go to...

2 responses

casarivasplata I don't exactly know how long the effectiveness is but what is does is it permeates the dogs coat giving out an odor that the fleas don't like. It should work if you add it to your dog's food a few times a week, maybe every other day. Like I said, bring it...

casarivasplata Hey BlueGhost - I read your response where you said you give your golden 5 cloves and your pom 1 clove. That concerns me. It sounds like a lot. Be careful - too much could be toxic. I know dogs react differently and your dogs sound like they can tolerate it...

casarivasplata The place wrote about was more than just a "soup kitchen" or place that serves meals to the down-and-out. It's actually a homeless shelter that helps with meals, beds, clothes, etc. My parents always referred to it as a "soup kitchen" when I was little. They...

casarivasplata That's cute. I might have to borrow that idea for the kids' stocking stuffers. You could also use cotton or felt for the fur. I like to use whatever I have around the house for my craft projects.
