    Yoga Max

    I totally agree! :D I am circling back to a fitness routine after a time away...again..*sigh* and was glad to get this series out of shrinkwrap yesterday. I knew I wanted to try one of the yogas and was actually pleasantly surprised by the OP's review. The fact that it isn't hard core power...

    Lost- the loss of one you love

    Alisha, I think this is a really nice idea - particularly when you tell which lavendar you liked best. I think it's these very small and particular acts of self-kindness - that people forget to do when they're grieving - that are the most important. A little, do-able thing....babysteps. For...

    Lost- the loss of one you love

    You've been on my mind since I saw your post. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Try to take some comfort from the web of prayer and warm regard offered by your fellow Cathetes. All over the country, all over the world, people who don't even know you are holding you in their hearts.

    Effective Pimple Treatment

    I'm a big fan of Paula's Choice skin care products. I've been using them for years. I like her philosophy and how she explains what ingredients work and why. I picked up the CLEAR line for myself AND my house full of teenagers. I use all three steps. It's very gentle and effective. When...

    Can a woman fake having a "soft side?"

    Hey Laura, Pinkquinn said it before I could. I think this is good advice. I believe in honesty and being yourself and I think it's a fine and good thing to open up enough to this guy to say that you have trouble being vulnerable. Communication is everything. Best of luck!

    Induction cooktops - another request for help from the educated crowd

    Hi Nancy and expatter....just dropping in to say the more I cook the more I like! I'm fortunate in that my DH cooks as much as I do. He's the Grill Master and I'm hoping that this entertaining cooktop will encourage him to stretch his wings and try cooking different kinds of dishes. Of...

    Induction cooktops - another request for help from the educated crowd

    Love it! Hi expatter and Nancy, Just wanted to stop back in to say the range was delivered yesterday and DH got it installed and ready for me. Per my step-son's request I made a mac & cheese for dinner. I make this from scratch and was really excited to see how responsive the burner would...

    relationship-y advice needed

    Oh, Farah, my heart goes out to you, it really does. I felt EXACTLY the way you feel right now...right around the time I met my second husband (online, match.com btw :D). I know how bleak everything feels. Try to trust that the best thing will happen. One thing that may be a bit out...

    Induction cooktops - another request for help from the educated crowd

    Hi expatter. There is buzz on ChowHound about some kind of induction top only available in Europe that's essentially a lot of tiny induction units under the glass top. You just set your pan down and the cooktop senses the size and shape of your pan. It gets me a little giddy thinking about...

    Induction cooktops - another request for help from the educated crowd

    Hi Nancy, I will be glad to let you know my thoughts on it. DH and I went to the store today and picked up an Electrolux slide-in induction range. Mucho Dineros to be sure but ultimately I think it's worth the extra cost given just how much cooking I do. The folks on ChowHound have much to...

    Induction cooktops - another request for help from the educated crowd

    Thanks for the feedback Melagras. Glad you are loving your stove. The more I read about induction the more I'm leaning towards it...... There aren't all that many slide-ins with induction available. It'll mostly be down to availability locally and price. I'd love to gut this kitchen and...

    Induction cooktops - another request for help from the educated crowd

    Hi everyone. Our stove is....kaput. One by one the major appliances have shuffled off their mortal coils and the stove is the last one to go. We're shopping for a replacement. Need a slide-in electric but I've been looking at these induction cooktops and wondering if they're worth the...
