  1. I loved the letters of Winston and Clementine Churchill. It is called Speaking for Themselves: The Personal Letters of Winston and Clementine Churchill. I actually listened to this on audio and was just so taken with how romantic they were with each other and how sweet and tender it was at times...however, they were such equals and that made it sexy. I really loved this one.

  2. Just yesterday for my in-laws anniversary dinner I made a truly flourless chocolate cake. It uses a whopping 9 full eggs in the recipe. They have chickens as well and can totally relate. In fact it is the egg overflow that caused me to use that particular recipe.

    As for other things...scrambled in breakfast burritos, quiches, bread pudding (which could be made sweet or savory), custard pies, the eggs mixture for french toast.

     

    I hope that helps!:)

  3. You may want to run it past your ENT doc, but New Chapter Organics makes a great sinus supplement. It aids in sinus care and helps to reduce/eliminate sinus infections for those who are prone to them. The New Chapter line is excellent. My entire family takes one or more of their products (fantastic multivitamins, supplements, etc). Something to check out at least. Take care.:)

  4. I didn't even finish reading your thread beyond the tag line...if that shows you anything!!!! Life is too short to continue reading something that isn't giving you pleasure! Just start reading something new...there is SO much! I give every book 50 pages, if I'm not hooked, it's someone else's favorite book. I donate it right away to our library book sale. Books will find you...I truly believe that!

  5. I love the Beat writers. Kerouac infected me when I was 14 and I have been trying to recover ever since. I love Thompson, The Rum Diaries is insanely beautiful (fairly new release.) I also think that Tom Perrotta is very talented (Little Children is a one of kind experience). I like Kate Christensen, The Great Man blew my mind. I also can't forget Nick Hornby! I love David Foster Wallace, he will be missed. Mary Roach, Stiff is fascinating. Mary Karr, Lit was terribly emotionally and worth the agony! Wow, I could go on and on! I love authors and all the gifts they give me!:001_smile:

  6. Hey ladies,

     

    A couple years ago a friend of mine was moving and gave me an entire set of very gently used cloth diapers. At least 3 stages of sizes and the corresponding liners as well as the covers. I think she had really good intentions, but then had two more children in quick succession and could not follow through with cloth. Anyone know what these would be worth if I were to post them? I would like to sell the lot. Any advice would be so helpful. Thanks in advance! :bigear:

  7. Mine is a photo of the Endurance, Ernest Shackleton's ship. When I am feeling whiny and ungrateful for my pretty amazing life...I look at that photo and appreciate one of the most fantastic and inspiring tales of navigation, adventure, and the true strength of the human spirit. It keeps my perspective in check!:) Great post!

  8. I am sure it has been said a million times by the looks of this thread, but what on earth does being a Christian have to do with hair extensions???:001_huh: And what about long hair looks trampy? I have long hair and to top it off it is black...what does that make me???? I don't particularly care for the Gosselin saga, but how could anyone glace at a picture, make a snap judgement based on personal appearance and then drop the christain stuff! :confused:.

  9. Where the Wild Things Are....before the tomatoes start flying...I felt like it completely missed the mark. What I loved about that book was the complete lack of parents. As a kid I liked that Max didn't need his mom for adventure...he needed her for security and love. I hated that in the movie the parents were empathized with. What's the fun it that...and as a kid (think back now!) there is no empathy for the parents...they are the enemy. I guess I just wanted a real romp of childhood...mischievousness and fun, but in the end...none of us really have anywhere to run away to. That to me is childhood....wanting to run, but knowing even then that you are lucky. However, I loved the look of the movie and the sounds!
