Do You Like Birdwatching?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (45) • United States 8 May

I always pictured bird watchers as men and women dressed in khaki outfits with matching khaki wide brim hats with binoculars. But maybe that's just the movies. I enjoy watching the birds in my yard. We have a bird feeder and...

Bensen32 I'm not what I would call a bird watcher, but when I go camping, I like sitting back and watching all the animals that come around camp including the birds.

Fleur @Fleura (31623) • United Kingdom 8 May

I often browse on Ebay when I’m looking for something, just in case someone happens to be selling the thing I want, especially if it’s nearby. Today I thought I would have a look in case anyone is selling an office chair. Our...

Sayings about the seasons

Judy Evans @JudyEv (352781) • Rockingham, Australia 8 May

I came across these sayings about the seasons and thought I’d share them. I certainly don’t believe all of them but some I’ve heard before. Summer If it rains on a full moon, it’s going to be a wet month. Spider webs in the...

Bensen32 Most of these I have never heard of so not sure it is something here in the USA. I have heard one...Red sky at night, Sailor Delight....Red sky in Morn, Sailor be warned. I guess that mean storms may or may not come. Not sure I believe in any of those.

Preserving Eggs

celticeagle @celticeagle (174084) • Boise, Idaho 10 Mar

With the average price of eggs at $4.99 a dozen I think a lot of people will want to find some ways of preserving them. If I find a good deal on some I will buy several dozen. It is easy to just freeze them in muffin tins. I get a...

pahak627 @pahak627 (5067) • Philippines 2 Mar

It has been several days already and still I could not think of any discussion to post. Maybe it's just that I'm always at home and idle. Not literally idle since I do the house chores only I feel too lazy to go out. I only...

Have you considered the possibility that the 2024 presidential election was stolen?

The Horse @TheHorse (226262) • Walnut Creek, California 26 Feb

I have watched a couple of interviews with this fella. He is convinced that the 2024 election was stolen by our current "president." He is a statistician, and I have taught statistics for years, so I get what he is saying. But I...

Pizza pizza! Do you ever make pizza at home?

The Horse @TheHorse (226262) • Walnut Creek, California 18 Feb

I like pizza, especially "everything" pizza, but I rarely buy frozen pizza at the grocery store. No particular reason. It just never became a part of my "routine." Over the past month or so, I have added pizza to "things in my...

Bensen32 I have made pizza from scratch but that was what 30 some years ago. I do get frozen pizzas now and then and if you get the right brand, they are pretty good, fairly cheap and oh so easy to make.
