kristys_red_barn I love to cook. I cook almost every night, we try to eat left overs once a week or so, just depends on what we have. When we got married I told my husband I wasn't cooking on Sundays. We either go out for lunch that day or have left overs. Sunday night is...

Finding a House to Buy

myfanwy65 @myfanwy65 (1030) • United States 8 Aug 07

I've looked at realtor.com. Is there any better website to use to try to find a house?

kristys_red_barn You can look around your area and take note of the different real estate companies and then look at their personal websites. A lot of companies don't list houses on realtor.com. You might also check out the real estate section on ebay.

Breakfast

emma412 @emma412 (1156) • United States 6 Aug 07

What's your favorite breakfast food to cook? I've been on an egg sandwich kick here lately. I make it with a whole wheat bagel, two fried eggs and a slice of pepper jack cheese. Yum! So good. What is your favorite breakfast?

kristys_red_barn My favorite breakfast food is blueberry pancakes made from scratch, but I only make them for supper. We eat breakfast food for supper a lot at our house. My husband leaves way early in the morning so I don't make breakfast, we each just grab something and go,...

How do you "express" your love?

miamilady @miamilady (4910) • United States 6 Aug 07

How do you show your loved ones that you love them? Besides telling them...How do you "show" them that you love them? How would you want someone to show their love for you? I think it's important to tell people you love...

kristys_red_barn I think saying I love you is important, but really actions are way more important to me than words. I show my husband I love him by helping him, listening to him, asking how his day was, putting something special in his lunch box sometimes, baking his favorite...

Does your spouse start arguments and then walk out of the room?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 6 Aug 07

One of the most frustrating things about my spouse when we first got married was that he would start arguments and then walk out of the room before I had a chance to defend myself against his comments. It was a little more than...

kristys_red_barn Frequently I'm the one to leave in an argument. In the last couple of years I have gotten better though. I will tell him I'm leaving because I think we both need time and space to think things through and then later we finish the discussion when we are both...

I just need to vent about this: family drama!

guss2000 @guss2000 (2232) • United States 4 Aug 07

My family has so much family drama in it, I swear we could be a daytime soap opera, or perhaps worse maybe even on the Jerry Springer show! I am so sick of hearing about the problems. You run out of advice to give, and noone...

kristys_red_barn Wow, that is an awful situation. One of the best things he can do is get a lawyer, and hopefully he can find one for free, if you talk to an organization such as SRS, they should be able to help. Another problem here is that he doesn't own the house, so...

kristys_red_barn I know you posted this awhile ago, but thought I would respons anyway. I saw Trent almost a year ago in concert and he was awsome, one of the best I have seen. His version of Purple Rain is almost beyond description. I would love to see him again.

Does absence really makes the heart grow fonder?

Storm @jcj_111776 (3216) • Philippines 3 Aug 07

In my relationship with my husband, I sometimes tell him that being away from each other for a little time can be helpful. Why? In our situation, the more that we're together basically from sun up to sundown, the more that we get...

kristys_red_barn It's that way for my husband and I also. By the end of the weekend I'm so ready for both of us to go back to work and get a little space. We've learned though and we each try to give the other some space, if we don't we end up bickering over petty things. I...

kristys_red_barn So it's not just my husband that does this? It drives me crazy. I know there are things going on with him right now, but he doesn't want to talk about it. I try to ask only once so I'm not pushy, but I feel that if I don't ask at all then it says I don't care....

kristys_red_barn I make a soup mix that is very similar to Campbell's Mushroom soup and I use it all the time to substitute in recipes. It's very quick and easy and so much cheaper. Here is the recipe: Cream Soup Mix 2 cups dry milk 3/4 C corn starch (argo) 1/4 C chicken...
