dyk, once I made a chicken and white bean chili and it was good but I made WAY to much for just one person and I ended up throwing out the big pot I made it in?

dyk, I also almost threw away a big Pyrex bowl full of spaghetti that was nasty, a pan that I didn't feel like washing and a smaller pot I didn't want to wash?

dyk, the only reason they didn't see the trash can was because my mom happened to have been visiting and washed them herself?

dyk, and I wonder why my mom won't buy me the pots & pans I've been asking for....?

DYK...she loves that navy dress...she knew exactly what dress she wanted for prom, months ago~! You should see the 4 inch silver spikes that go with it! LOL She is actually taller than the grandmother's, but not by THAT much!

DYK she is going to university in September, studying geography and history, as she wants to be a teacher..

DYK I have discovered why I always have teeny tiny font!!!!

DYK it's because my browser is firefox, not explorer...

DYK if I use explorer, I have the option to change font size, colour etc...but if I use mozilla, I don't....

DYK I 've been on this board for 1.5 years and just figured that out now...

DYK...not the brightest bulb in the pack, apparently!!!

DYK that would be so cool if you could get it done! You HAVE to take before and after pics! I am so excited for you!


DYK I don't remember where you are, but I'm in Virginia and it is SO humid here! From the end of May through the end of September, I can't wear my hair down at all. It doesn't even last in my apartment, let alone outside.


DYK but I'm originally from Seattle, and my hair behaves much better there!

dyk, how do I keep grapes from going moldy?

dyk, I just threw out almost an entire bag?

dyk, if there's no way to "save" grapes, does anyone know if they sell them in bags smaller than huge? I bought my grapes at a "regular" grocery store if that helps.

dyk, I'm only one person and even if I ate 3 servings of grapes a day I still would have tossed about half the bag?

dyk, I really hate throwing out food?

dyk, I use Firefox and have "normal" font?

dyk, always have?

dyk, there's one journal I visit that suddenly became small and I got really worried since it was the first "new" page I had gone to that day? Turns out, she just made her font really small.

DYK I hate touching icky things too? ...but that's what husbands are for!


DYK like the time I used the juicer and asked Pete to wash it for me because I didn't feel like it. Well, it took him a few days to get to it. Bad idea! When he opened it up, there was these wispy mold strands covering EVERTHING. The whole thing was full of mold! It was so gross, I alsmost threw up just looking at it.


DYK so he put on rubber gloves, cleaned everything like 20 times, and then ran it through the dishwasher.


DYK if I wasn't married, I would have tossed it and bought a new one.

DYK I made bueberry chocolate chip scones for breakfast? (whole wheat, of course)


DYK they are sooo good! I only had one, but Pete had two.


DYK we're going to the gym soon, and I know if I have another one I'm not going to be able to run at all!

dyk, don't get to excited yet?!? According to the scale this morning I've still got about 37 pounds to go.

dyk, I'm right outside of Boston?

dyk, it gets humid here, but nothing like Virginia?

dyk, I grew up in Delaware and the humidity there is worse than here sometimes?

dyk, even in the summer if I skip a shower (I shower at night and I usually don't shower Friday nights if I'm going to the gym Saturday morning) my hair actually looks pretty nice? It's because the grease is weighing down the curls and frizz!
