    Indiana Anyone?

    I know I am a little late on posting here, but I am from Indiana...actually pretty close to Evansville. I live in a little town called English....if you blink, you miss it! We are about 1 hour east of Evansville, 20 miles south of Paoli, and 45 miles west of Louisville, Ky. Sara

    O.k...I've turned into a Witch with a "B"!

    RE: O.k...I've turned into a Witch with a Girl....go eat some chocolate...hurry!!! Only kidding! When you start eating low carb, you quit feeding toxins in your body. Toxins feed on sugar and high carb foods. When the toxins don't get fed, they die off, which is good! This is called herxheimer...

    Should a child be running this much?

    I don't think it is too much...kids are just plain active and tougher than nails! She might have been "playing it up" so other people would notice and she could "brag" (in a good way) about her race. She was just proud and probably wanted a bit of attention. Sara

    Parents of Picky Eaters....

    Well, I used a the box brownies and added the spinach and carrots. To be honest, I think I could have cut back a bit on the spinach and added some (homemade) chocolate icing. It is all trial and error with the deserts. However, the whole pan of brownies got eaten!! Sara

    Parents of Picky Eaters....

    I got a new cookbook called Deceptively Delicious, which teaches you how to puree fruits and veggies and hide them in food. So far, I have put butternut squash in mac n cheese and marinara sauces. I put sweet potatoes in taco meat and cauliflower in mashed potatoes. My kids and dh gobble it up...

    lack of motivation---burned out on life?

    I have been in a rut lately too, so you are not alone. When I get like this, I try to eat super healthy....load up on fruits and veggies, eat good fats like eggs and almonds, cut back on sugar, and drink lots of water. That always seems to help me "feel" better and have more energy to take...

    What is your favorite candle?

    I have been searching for a great candle and I have found the best one in the world. It is a Woodwick Caramel. It smells throughout the whole house. You can smell it even when it is not burning. A friend of mine came over one day and I had that candle "simmering" on an electric burner. She...

    What impacts do you see re: economy?

    The only impact I see for my family and everyone I know are higher gas prices. I don't see anybody unemployed except for one....and he got fired for calling in too much. Grocery prices have been going up before this gas thing hit. I remember for years my juice was 2.22.....In Jan it went up to...

    Phobias anyone?

    I have a huge fear of snakes. Last Thursday night about 9 or so, I had to help dh get something out of our car. So, he goes out ahead of me, I walk out the back door and freeze. There was a snake on my patio. Of all the patios in the world.....WHY MINE??? But, the good news is, (and all you...

    Earthquake

    Hey, Wow, it is crazy how spread out we are, but felt the same shaking. I felt another tiny little shake around 11:30 or so. My bff lives in Olney, Il and my mom lives in that area too. Stuff was falling off her walls during the aftershock (or whatever it was) at 11:30. Sara

    My DH's secret Myspace account

    I am so sorry about this. It sucks when your spouse lies to you, huh? You know, I got married young...21 years old and pregnant with my first son. I am 28 (29 this month) with 3 young children. If you ever need someone to talk to (a friend) please email. It is hard to make friends...I only have...

    I need some dating advice.

    RE: MOST Importantly Laura! Ask him and then come back and tell us all what he said :-) If it makes you feel any better, I had to call my dh and ask him out. He was way too shy to ask me....If I never would have made that phone call, who knows where I would be right now. So....go for it...
