Anna @snowy22315 - I make mine from scratch, it does not take a lot of time. Once you boil and mash the potatoes, it's just the time needed to make the dough and shape the gnocchi. Let's say 40 minutes to make two portions.

Sushi Bridge

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (128848) • Gainesville, Florida 29 Oct

For my daughter's birthday this past week, we went to Epcot, one of the four theme parks at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Out of the four theme parks at Disney World, this is probably the one with the least amount of...

They Are Already Started

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (141993) • Marion, Ohio 20h

And already getting ignored. I am now just declining any that I don't know since I am not expecting any phone calls. I set different ring tones for different things so now I don't even have to look. Today is the last regular...

Anna Very good smoothie. We also had an incredibly warm day. For lunch I cooked the leftover gnocchi that I prepared for my friends, with cherry tomatoes and black olives. An apple for dinner, I am not hungry.

I’m trying to get that protein boost.

Amber @AmbiePam (132131) • United States 16h

We all noticed in Canada our allergies were better, and we loved it. Boy, do I miss Prince Edward Island right now (for many reasons). I seem to be coming down from a vacation high, and the allergies have set in again. I’m relying...

32 bucks for that little pot

snowy @snowy22315 (214366) • United States 29 Oct

Everything is so crazy expensive. The new pot is less than half the size of the old pot. It looks like something you could put in an RV, but it works and that is the main thing. It had features I wanted on it like guaranteed no...

Do you get the laughing gas?

Amber @AmbiePam (132131) • United States 29 Oct

rebelann1949 @rebelann (118969) • El Paso, Texas 29 Oct

Has a technician ever told you which components are damaged?

May2k8 @May2k8 (20213) • Indonesia 12 Oct

I'm sure most technicians never tell you, but there are some who are very honest and they always check every important point to avoid further damage because usually if one component is damaged automatically the ones near it can...

Healthy brunch

I just had my brunch. It is rice with noodle, chicken meat and eggs. The eggs are little bit spicy. This brunch is not big enough for so I think I will have another meal for my lunch in the afternoon.
