If you had your own website, what would the focus be?

Amber @AmbiePam (108085) • United States 31 Oct

Tendz I’ve never started one, but it’s fun to imagine. I think I’d go for something cozy and community based, maybe a place for people to share personal stories or everyday reflections.

Tomorrow will be wild at work

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125592) • United States 30 Oct

Halloween ranks up there with the day before Christmas break and the last few days of school. We will have inappropriate costumes, students hopped up on sugar, and general just craziness. I'm not even going to attempt to lecture....

I keep cutting the price.

Amber @AmbiePam (108085) • United States 27 Oct

I had no idea how selfish I was. I keep selling things, but my friend will say things like, this person is struggling, and I’ll cut the price of what I’m selling. And then I’ll kind of be like, darn, I wish I didn’t feel compelled...

Tendz You’re not being selfish. It just shows you care, even when you wish you didn’t have to take a loss.

Money

Money can be a hard thing to figure out. Either you never have enough money. Or you just have enough but no emergency money. Sometimes you never have enough money to get everything that you need. Some people have strict budgets...

Tendz I haven’t seen the movie, but it sounds like a touching one. Sometimes those older films hit different once you give them a chance, maybe I’ll add it to my watch list.

Are you an expert in cooking?

May2k8 @May2k8 (19443) • Indonesia 27 Oct

I'm not an expert but at least it still tastes good to eat. Today I was frying tempeh mixed with wheat flour but it was a little burnt because I left for a moment to look for a plate.

Sweet chestnut bonanza!

Fleur @Fleura (33158) • United Kingdom 6 Oct

Tendz Parboiling in beer is a fantastic technique that many people do for keeping them juicy and perfectly cooked. I also enjoy trying different methods, grilling and pan-frying can bring out wonderful flavors.
