  1. I have that one also, and I have used it for corn and flour tortillas. I like it!
  2. Thanks! I didn't know that. Now I've got some change to turn into an Amazon gift card!
  3. I'd go with option 3. We left RS after C and started using Math Mammoth. I bought Beast Academy to supplement Math Mammoth for this year, and my daughter loves it! We've only been using Beast Academy for the first week and a half of school. Now I'm slowly adding Math Mammoth back into the schedule.
  4. I bought a JanSport on Amazon for my daughter, too. I liked that it has a lifetime warranty. I'm sick of replacing them when they rip or the zippers break! http://www.amazon.com/JanSport-Superbreak-Backpack-Black-Doodle/dp/B006ML7LKS/ref=sr_1_4?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1345503100&sr=1-4&keywords=jansport+backpack
  5. I had a different menstrual cup years ago (not Diva and I can't think of the name right now), but I could always feel it. I ordered a Lunette after doing some research because it was smaller, and I do have a tilted cervix (can't remember the correct name for that either!). It works great and I don't feel it at all.
  6. I've used more expensive systems in the past, but I really like "Easy Lunchboxes". They're easy to wash, and I don't have to mess with a bunch of little pieces like the Laptop Lunches. http://http://www.amazon.com/EasyLunchboxes-3-compartment-Containers-insulated-non-vinyl/dp/B00547YYWO/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1345010811&sr=8-11&keywords=Easy+Lunch+boxes
  7. I'd love to see them too! kim.4dogs@yahoo.com
  8. I've been using You Need a Budget for the last 4 or 5 months. One thing I really like about it (among many things) is that you work towards having a buffer, so that the money you earn in June is used for July expenses, and the money you earn in July is used towards August expenses. Then you budget bases on what you actually earned. Obviously, most of us can't do this right away, but once you reach that point it is nice, and solves the problem of which amount to use for your budget.
  9. I use YNAB. When you say it shows -$300 do you mean for your money for the month? Or for your net worth? I had a credit card balance for the first few months I used the program, and there was a way to categorize your credit card debt as "pre-YNAB debt". That way it was just another bill, and you could decide how much to budget towards it each month. Definitely check out the forums! People are very knowledgeable and super helpful!
  10. I used this recipe: http://www.lexieskitchen.com/lexies_kitchen/2011/9/14/almond-milk-yogurt-dairy-free.html For the starter, I used a couple tablespoons of soy yogurt.
  11. Sounds good! I have been making almond milk lately, and also almond milk yogurt. I would like to try the "cheesecake".
  12. At apple.com, a refurbished 8 GB is $169 and the 32GB is $249. Those are both the current generation with the camera. I have an 8 GB and the memory has not been a problem. I don't have movies on it, though. I currently have 359 songs, 342 photos, and 64 apps on it. Hope that helps!
  13. I'm planning to use it this year for 1st and 4th grade science. The science looks great to me!
  14. I print them double-sided and have them coil bound at Offic Depot. It costs about $3.50 for each half of the book (A or B).
  15. I seem to collect them lately, and this is one of my recent favorites: http://www.amazon.com/Supermarket-Vegan-Meat-Free-Egg-Free-Dairy-Free/dp/0399535616/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1337628459&sr=1-1 Lots of simple recipes using regular ingredients I can find at my small local grocery store.
  16. I had one without the hormones for a few years and it worked fine. It did make my periods worse, but when I removed it after my dh had a vasectomy, the nurse practioner warned me that my periods may have been worse just because they change after childbirth. She seems to have been right, because they didn't really get any better once it was removed.
  17. I am doing it with WWW 3 and WWE 3. It works well because they are very different. The only problem is getting them both done! Some days we just do one or the other. (OK, *most* days we just do one or the other.)
  18. I print mine at home (on an inkjet color printer, set to "fast draft" to save ink). Then I take them to a copy shop and have them spiral bound. It was under $5 to just have one bound. I make separate books for A and B and print them double-sided, so the books aren't too big.
  19. I'm using them together and I think they work great! They definitely complement each other well.
  20. I read "The China Study" and watched "Forks over Knives" last September, and changed my diet drastically. I second the recommendation for the Happy Herbivore cookbook. Her recipes are pretty simple and don't take long to prepare!
  21. I prefer a canister vacuum for hard floors. I've had this one (but it might have been a cheaper model, because I don't think I paid this much): http://www.amazon.com/Hoover-WindTunnel-Canister-Electronic-S3765-040/dp/B00008UI0R/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330651790&sr=8-1 It was good, but didn't last too long. Now I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/Miele-S2120-Canister-FiberteQ-SBD350-3/dp/B002YPUO5U/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1330651835&sr=1-1 I love it!
  22. I agree with you! I got it last week and I haven't done anything with it yet. I'm glad I'm not the only one! :001_unsure: I do have AAS for my ds6, but I didn't want to go all the way back to level 1 of AAS with my dd8. HTTS seemed like a good option, but now I'm not so sure.
  23. Congratulations! I hope the process goes quickly for all of you!
