For the last few months, my family has been getting strange phone calls. They all start the same; "Hello, I am from [business name], we're calling to talk about some problems with your computer." They tell you that you need to...

Courtney Thomas I could see how some people could fall for it. No one wants to believe there's something wrong with their computer, and some people will do anything to fix it. But still, your best bet is to take it to a professional you can see in person.

Courtney Thomas I'm knitting some hats for my three little cousins, since it's Christmas. I was hit with the crafting bug pretty hard this year, I even opened up a shop on Etsy to sell my crafts. For as long as I can remember I've loved crafts, it probably started while I...

So tonight I've decided to make a new tradition for myself of watching bad Christmas movies in December. I've always loved watching bad movies, but usually I've stuck to the horror realm. Today I decided to expand my bad movie...

I presume this latest fad is alive and well in all countries. I know they have in England at least. I'm talking about colouring-in books for adults. I don't want to knock anyone's idea of what they enjoy but frankly I can't think...

Courtney Thomas @boiboing you can also use them to make pasta and even desserts. I've had slow cooker mac and cheese that was amazing. But yeah, I see what you mean about the meat thing as that's what I usually use mine for.

Courtney Thomas I love the coloring books for adults, they really help me with my anxiety. If I'm feeling overwhelmed, I just whip out one of the books. I have one that has blank pages for making your own illustrations, and there are even pages that encourage you to add...

Courtney Thomas My brother did something similar when they called him. He kept them on the phone for at least 20 minutes. The whole time he was looking up the scam. After he told them (in a very concerned voice) that he read online that the call was a scam, they hung up on...

This will be a very random discussion. So you know, pretty much the usual from me. I've been craving some Potato Candy. I am almost certain that it is an Irish recipe. I've talked about it before a long long time ago on the old...

Courtney Thomas @ScribbledAdNauseum The brand you're looking for is called idahoan. They're actually my favorite instant potatoes. We use them for shepard's pie at home.

I was just wondering who else loves baking around Christmas time. I love putting on some holiday jingles and baking banana nut bread. What is your favorite thing to bake?

Courtney Thomas Its become a bit of a Thanksgiving tradition for me to make lemon squares. I love the tart and sweet combination, to me that is a signature fall taste. I also like to do the classics sugar cookies and apple pie.

Has anyone ever said this or something else sadistic from looking at a baby or an animal that was just adorable? I read something years ago about these sorts of people. They see something so cute they just can't handle it so...

Courtney Thomas I say it to my little nephew all the time. Usually I say I want to pinch his cheeks off his face. Sometimes it is like I want to hug him to death.
