NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (127037) • United States 9 May

The whole thing has been weird. My mother has been estranged from her sisters (and late brother) for many years. I have stayed in touch with my aunts and uncles because I don't believe in cutting off family members. Anyway my...

marguicha Mice can be terrible plagues. They reproduce with no control and I once saw on TV a plague so terrible that they ate everything alive. When they had nothing to eat they ate other mice and that was the only way it was controlled.

A new danger down under

Judy Evans @JudyEv (380201) • Rockingham, Australia 5 May

It’s been a while since people on myLot have made a big fuss about how dangerous Australia is. Spiders, snakes, crocodiles – they all get mentioned as reasons why some people don’t want to come to Australia. Many a time I’ve said...

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (51822) • Staten Island, New York 5 May

A photographer is coming tonight to take the pictures of the house (inside and outside) and then the house will be put on the market. I have a feeling that the house will not take a long time to sell. But at the same time, I...

marguicha Where I live it is quite expensive to live in a nice apartment and in a nice neighborhood. I think that when I sell my house I won´t buy another one but rent something.

marguicha I have been very much worried lately at some of the things kids do now. I don´t remember ever hearing such a thing when I wa young. The most I remember was about young couples running away or eloping.

Am I going crazy?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (51822) • Staten Island, New York 2 May

Sometimes we do things that make us question our sanity. I was sitting in the car after my mom’s friend dropped me off at my house. I turned on the light and went into my handbag in search of the house keys. Instead of the keys,...

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (51822) • Staten Island, New York 4 May

marguicha I have discovered that I have to undersalt any dish that I will freeze later. Salt seems to turn into pure salt in the freezer. As for the quails, maybe you could either wash them with lukewarm water before thawing and then boil them for a small while in...

marguicha I love any posible way. I suppose I prefer them scrambled in the morning. But I´m used to make omelettes with whatever leftover I have in the fridge. And when I´m lazy, I cook hard boiled eggs to eat standing at the sink as a snack.
