Songs to Dance To: Potential New Boyfriend

Four Walls @FourWalls (79709) • United States 14 Oct

Wow, this is weird…a song by a country music legend that I do not have to warn the people allergic to country music to avoid! It’s not a hoedown dance, it’s an indication of why they put her in the Rock and...

Max Crisp Yeah, that was a worry when her sister asked for prayers. Of course we all thought she was dying. Thankfully she wasn’t, but she is definitely going through tough times. I’ve seen her in concert and she did as much talking as she did singing....

the cucumber and bittergourd farms are awesome

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (21733) 12 Oct

Cucumber in bengal is eaten both as a vegetable curry and also as a salad. Bittergourd is eaten either in boiled form or a curry is made. Both these farms are awesome. The vegetables bulge down from the top of the plants in the...

Max Crisp I love cucumber as a salad vegetable, but I’ve never tried it in a curry. I’ve never heard of a bittergourd. I don’t think it’s something that is available in the UK?

No sanitation pickup

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (48048) • Staten Island, New York 12 Oct

Today is Sunday and for me that means taking out the trash, the compost, and recycling for Monday pickup. I was getting ready to do that when I realized that tomorrow is Columbus Day, which means no sanitation tomorrow. I will...

Max Crisp I think they are starting to separate the food stuff for recycling here next year. We already have too many different bins to put out, and this will be one more!

Stacey @xstitcher (36186) • Petaluma, California 13 Oct

It was still raining, but I went to the gym and did my half hour. Now I'm back home and thinking about what to have for dinner. I never did get the mail, but I can do that tomorrow. (Though I may have to go out in the rain...

Max Crisp I’ve not been to the gym in many a year. It was having a negative impact on my health, so I stopped. Now I just walk a lot. I don’t like walking in the rain, so that would put me off. I hardly get any mail these days. Even the junk mail has dried up. I am as...

More Bloodwork?

Courtney Dutton @MommyOfEli2013 (85773) • Rupert, Idaho 9 Oct

Hey everyone, how are you all doing? I got a call from my doctor's office yesterday evening saying the doctor ordered some blood work. Some of my numbers were off, so he wanted to check some more specific blood tests. My...

Max Crisp From what I’ve learned about you, it’s probably your diet. You don’t seem to eat a lot of the things that keep you healthy. You can get iron from lots of food. Spinach and lentils come to mind, and meats. I eat cereal that is fortified with lots of essential...

Favorite Dishes to Cook

Hilariously Hannah @hilariouslyhannah99 (9) 13 Oct

I have never really been an individual who enjoys cooking. I cook so I don't go hungry and for survival. I wouldn't say I'm a bad cook per se but I am not the best. I have recently started trying to find ways to make cooking more...

Max Crisp Chicken forms the protein basis of many of my meals: from roast dinners to pastas and curries. Still reasonably cheap here in the UK. Especially compared to beef. P.S. I love the name “Hannah”! Not only is it a palindrome, but it uses 3 double letters. How...

Max Crisp I think that’s the first “modern day’ scary movie I watched. Before that it was the old B&W Dracula and Frankenstein movies. I was still a young teenager when this came out, so I don’t recall when I first watched it? Can’t believe it was released in 1973!...

The creep neighbor is hiding from me

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125069) • United States 12 Oct

I haven't seen him in a couple of weeks. I know that he is still here because I can smell the stench of cigarettes and pot. He knows what time I leave for work and when I typically get back. I used to see him out there all the...

Songs to Dance To: Oh, Boy!

Four Walls @FourWalls (79709) • United States 13 Oct

I remember when there were 12 Jaffa cakes in a packet …….

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (6097) • United Kingdom 13 Oct

Jaffa cakes are one of my most favourite things. Lovely sponge topped with zesty orange then chocolate. The big debate is whether it’s a cake or a biscuit …. The answer is in the name …..JAFFA CAKE A cake is soft then goes...

Max Crisp Not only is there less in a packet, but they are also smaller in size. I used to eat them in two bites, now I just shove them into my mouth in one. Still tasty, but less satisfying. P.S. I’m pleased you gave the answer first to what is soft...

I thought "annual" meant only once a year?

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125069) • United States 10 Oct

The lying Blonde Barbie behind the podium during press updates said a couple of days ago that Trump would be going to Walter Reed Hospital today for his "annual physical exam". That wouldn't be strange but it was already announced...

Max Crisp Maybe he thought the word bi-annual was associated with being gay, and he wouldn’t want that? I read that his doctor says he’s in ‘exceptional health’ and has the heart of a 65 year old. I never knew he’d had a transplant! I also...

Max Crisp I’ve seen you mention “gravel man” a few times. How disappointing to read that he is toying with your affections just to extort money from you. As others have mentioned, you should cut all communication with him. He is nothing but a dishonourable scumbag,...

Max Crisp Great movie. Jodie Foster is excellent as “Clarice”, said in a Hannibal way, but Anthony Hopkins was brilliant as Hannibal. So very menacing. I love the movie, but I think the sequel, Hannibal, was even better.

Max Crisp Yeah, it’s a blow to women of a certain age to have to wait another 5, 6, or 7 years to get the state pension. I myself had to wait another year (66 instead of 65) and I was miffed about that! If I’d had the choice of anywhere to retire to, it...

Max Crisp We don’t have “barmen” in the UK, only “bartenders”, since we went woke. Every trade has to be gender neutral. Saying that, only men have beards. Or do they? In my past experience, many barmen appeared to be wax dummies, as they seemed to be deaf...

Max Crisp Oh yes, this is a great movie. I love the ending! I can see it’s got one of your favourites, Jeff Goldblum, in it. I didn’t remember this. Donald Sutherland was excellent in his role. I must watch it again sometime soon.
