Mylot rules?

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 31 Jul 12

Are you allowed to add a link to a different website here on a mylot conversation? For example, I have an Etsy store can I share a link to that or is that not allowed. I don't want to have it deleted and waste time.

Turkey Burgers

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 31 Jul 12

My kids do not like hamburgers. I have to force them to eat them. So, I bought turkey burgers to try. They are less fat and all around healthier anyways. They loved them. My daughter ate the whole thing, bun and all. The only...

Blue Moon Painting

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 24 Jun 12

This one is one that I really love. I am thinking of doing it in different color schemes, though I think this one will always be my favorite. It is done in acrylics. What do you think?

What do you think of this painting?

I have been taking painting classes since last October, as a hobby and a class for my kids who I homeschool. Up until just recently I was mostly painting on glass, and such to learn and styrofoam plates are awesome to practice on...

Do You Believe In Sinless Perfection?

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 19 Jun 12

This is not an argument about religion, or ones personal beliefs. I am just curious how many people actually believe that being perfect from sin is attainable. I have a very close friend who has a very different outlook than me on...

The New Dallas

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 16 Jun 12

Who watched the new and updated version of Dallas, on Thursday night? My husband and I both watched it. He was a huge Dallas fan back in the day, as was I. I do have to say that without Larry Hagman, as JR Ewing, this would have...

Shrek Forever After

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 24 Jun 11

I watched this movie today with my kids. I loved it as I do all the Shrek movies. I laughed a lot and enjoyed every minute of it. My son seemed to enjoy it more than my daughter, but he is older and understood more the comedy of...

Halloween Pumpkin Ideas

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 16 Oct 10

I wanted to do something different this year, as no one seems to want to carve the pumpkin and dig out the guts. We made three. Two we painted, one was carved and fresh flowers added to it. The other painted one got googly eyes...

What Are Two Things You Have To Cook With Every Time?

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 15 Oct 10

I think we all have two staple things we add to every single dish we make. For me it is garlic and onions. I do not know of any meal that I don't use these two things in. What about you?

Do You Have A Craft Or Hobby?

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 15 Oct 10

I do. I collect gemstones and make jewelry. This year was so slow finance wise that I didn't buy any new supplies for jewelry making at all. This next year I want to focus on buying some new supplies for my Etsy store. If anyone...

Does This Really Make Sense?

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 8 Apr 10

There is a big push to remove fat from all foods, salt, and anything else that might taste good. McDonalds is practically being called evil for making everyone fat. We have a prejudice against fat people in this country. I...

The Dinner Garden

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 7 Apr 10

I do a lot of blog hopping to promote my own blogs. Last week I found a very cool website called the Dinner Garden. They give free seeds, enough for a whole family to feed itself, and maybe others, by growing your own garden. The...

Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Awesome

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 3 Apr 10

I was not optimistic about watching this movie, as I really disliked the first one. I thought this second one was 100 times better than the first one. The story line was awesome, and not just fighting, and special effects. I hope...

Have You Seen UP?

missliss08 @missliss08 (766) • United States 3 Apr 10

My kids wanted to see this movie, and I was like ugh it looks so dumb. Don't judge by previews, it was very good, and probably one of my favorite kids movies I have seen. I won't give it away, but it was about life, watch it you...
