Do you ever put cheese in your mashed potatoes?

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12587) • United States 22 Jun 09

I love fresh mashed potatoes. But most of the time I do not have the time to fix them. So it is instant from the box we use. We had them with dinner last night. And I put shredded cheese in them to doctor them up. Ever do that?...

1grnthmb Oh Poor Sweet Gissi. I have been so out of the loop by not coming here for months. I am sorry you were not feeling well but so happy that you are back. You and Mum need to take care of each other and keep each other healthy.

What Kind Of Greens Do You Like In A Salad?

danishcanadian @danishcanadian (28954) • Canada 17 Jun 09

Growing up, we just used to put Iceburg lettuce in salads because it was inexpensive. When I got older, Mom started buying Romaine or Boston lettuce. That was even better!! Occasionally we'd have spinich, and in Arizona, I had a...

1grnthmb I am like you that I grew up with the Iceburg lettuce and stayed with it until just recently. I really like the butter head and bib lettuce the best. But I also like the Romain and Red Leaf over the iceburg letuce.

Do you call to make sure the person is awake?

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12587) • United States 21 Jun 09

My hubby is on a 6 hour drive to Chicago for his job. He had called here. But I was wondering if anyone was in the habit of calling to make sure a person was awake. DO you appreciate someone making sure you have arrived safely or...

1grnthmb My wife does this when I am on a long trip like when I go to see my parents. She calls me every two hours to make sure I am ok and that I am doing fine. I do appreciate it because when we are talking it breaks the monotony of the long drive.

How dry does your skin get?

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12587) • United States 27 Jan 09

Do you get dry skin in the winter. I think more than a few of us do. Some of us get dry patches on our face. Some deal with feet issues(me) some with dry skin on our hands (me again) What do you use to combat the problem? I use...

Does your last name sound good hyphonated?

katsmeow1213 @katsmeow1213 (28716) • United States 27 Jan 09

A lot of my married friends on Facebook have listed their name as hyphonated, so that their old high school friends can find them. I've thought about doing this. I've used Facebook to contact some of my old school friends and...

1grnthmb I have a couple of friends, that instead of hyphenation their names, they put their maiden name in parenthesis. As you said some names just clash.

Trolls

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85137) • Shingle Springs, California 27 Jan 09

Do you wipe your dog/pet

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12587) • United States 28 Jan 09

off when they come in from being in the rain or snow? We have almost 8 inches of snow on the ground this morning. I don't normally dry my dog off. But I did wipe her paws off this morning.

1grnthmb When it is raining and we let the dogs out to do their business we always dry them off when they come back in. Especially their paws because they will track in mud otherwise.

1grnthmb It might be a little dark for a five year old. Jenny, who is now sixteen, read the book and if the movie is anything like the book it is going to be graphic and disturbing to a five year old. The previews even make it look really creepy.
