countrygal57 Have you tried green smoothies or almond milk smoothies? The green smoothies are quite popular right now with raw foodists. No they don't eat raw meat. I love green smoothies! You make them by adding 1 cup of water to your blender, then add a handful of...

countrygal57 Reminds me of my husbands favorite saying, take it: "One Day at a Time." He even has a sign above his desk with this saying on it. I do use sea salt, so maybe I am doing something right.

countrygal57 Pumpkin pie is one of my favorites. I also love Apple pie with maple nut ice cream on top. The pie has to be warm of course!

I have tried several ways to make extra money with somewhat good results. I sold on EBay for many years until the fees sky rocketed. Now I'm lucky if I get $1.00 for a $27.00 book. I did and still do sell craft items on Etsy, but...

countrygal57 I know I wouldn't last a day on only fruit. I love fruit, but it wouldn't satisfy me for long. I have tried a raw foods diet before and only lasted for one week. They eat fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and some grains. (Not raw meat). I also love cooked...

I have a question. Does anyone know what the average age is for a pomeranian. I have heard quite a few things from the ridiculous, 3 years to 7 years to 10 years. I have two poms, one is 8 and the other is 5. The one that is 8 is...

countrygal57 I heard that Poms live to be 15 years old. Don't allow your Pom to gain too much weight. We made that mistake and our little Pom passed away from a heart attack at 8 years old. We still miss her and that was more than a year ago.
