petulantM Not only do I reuse gift bags but also the tissue paper. I too do not write on the tags attached to the bags, so that the recipients can reuse the bags. I have given gift bags in assorted sizes as gifts to people, so that they reduce their use of wrapping...

I have to have a kohl pencil with me every moment of my life. This is one make up tool I just can't live without. I can go without any other make up to any function. But I'll have to have my eyes lined with a kohl pencil. Do you...

The best movie I've seen in a long time!

Bella75 @nixxi76 (3191) • Canada 23 Dec 08

I watched "Wanted" the other night and I must say this movie was really good! Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman were the main actors that I recognized. They both played their roles really good. Basically in the movie there's this...

petulantM I too was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed "Wanted"--did it get a lot of good press when it was released in theaters? James Macavoy The only thing I would add to the original review is that I really enjoyed the music/score. Danny Elfman, former...

Amythyst @Amythyst (59) • United States 23 Dec 08

You can get paid by view if you write for E-How.com. I have written there frequently and usually get around $50.00 a month there. Most of this is residual income as I don't write quite as often as I used to. However, it takes a...

petulantM I'm on eHow as well, but it's my understanding that compensation is based more on ad-clicks than views. Writing high quality articles is key, but it's also important to choose your keywords correctly. Those help determine what ads are placed on your article's...

My Cookies are Flat

Shar19 @Shar19 (8234) • United States 21 Dec 08

I just made my chocolate chip cookies today for Christmas. Once again, they are flat as pancakes. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I make the same Nestle Tollhouse recipe every year. Most of the times they turn out flat. Does...

petulantM Are you dropping the dough ball-shaped onto the cookie sheet? Are you making the balls in the recommended size? Either of those two might be contributing to the flat shape.

Do you grind your teeth?

regal_aeros @regal_aeros (2605) • Singapore 21 Dec 08

My dad grinds his teeth when he is asleep. It's quite bad & very loud. I can hear him LOUD and CLEAR from my room which is across my parent's room. Do you grind your teeth? Why do people grind their teeth anyway?

petulantM I grind my teeth and have for years. While you can purchase over-the-counter night guards (that look like the mouthguards that athletes use), they are big, bulky, and uncomfortable. I would recommend that as a temporary solution until your father goes to the...
