Yesterday turned out to be another great day. Later on, we decided to take a ride to Sikeston, MO, about 40 minutes south of Cape Girardeau where we are staying. To give you an idea of where that is, it's home to the famous...

snowy @snowy22315 (210084) • United States 17h

Lets talk boxes. What do you do with yours? It is a constant challenge to keep on top of the boxes here due to online ordering. Everytime one gets cleared out, it seems like two replace it. I just got another one yesterday. I know...

What's the oldest food in your freezer right now?

JB_girl @sol_cee (39026) • Philippines 3 Jul

I think my freezer deserves an archaeological dig. Every time I move something, I uncover another "ancient artifact" hiding in the back. Today I found something I don't even remember buying. I guess it's a reminder...

Amber @AmbiePam (122240) • United States 3 Jul

Whats a Healthy Breakfast?

MG SINGH @madan02 (683) 3 Jul

I think breakfast is the most important meal of the day. When you get up in the morning, your blood sugar level is low, and you need good, nutritious food to pep you up. Yesterday it was raining, but I still wanted to take a drive...

Traceyjayne My Nan used to make the best rabbit stew, but that was years ago. I have never tried to make it as I’m sure I won’t get it anywhere as good as Nans. I always looked forward to it when I knew she had made rabbit stew ….
