    Help my dog won't walk!

    Don't panic! This is a totally solvable problem. How old is he? And how far have you guys been walking? My dogs still act reluctant if I've been taking longer walks than they would like to take. Combine things he likes with walks. I have established "cookie places" along all our walking...

    I'm so HOT!!!!

    Sure, that happens to me all the time, and I'm "only" 34. It's happened to me for years. It happens sometimes at work, where I'm just sitting and typing - I'll suddenly be SOOOOO hot. Yesterday morning, I woke up hours before my alarm went off and couldn't stay in bed because I was burning up...

    So utterly hooked on "Say Yes to the Dress"!

    Arg...Say Yes to the Dress...how did you infiltrate my anti-reality-TV defenses?? I'm getting married in May and I have my dress already - it's totally off-the-wall and nontraditional, not white, not a giant meringue, no lace, no tulle, no beading, etc. It cost a teensy fraction of even the...

    Did somebody say danishes? I love danishes! I will be offended if someone doesn't save me a raspberry danish.

    Boxed wine is positively hoity-toity by comparison to Boone's & Manischewitz.

    I'm pretty sure Manischewitz could give Boone's Farm a run for its money...(blurry flashback of an all-night dreidel game at Hebrew school that went too far...) :o

    Can we PLEASE have a snow day on a weekday???

    ME TOO. I have to shovel out my car, a path to my car, sidewalks, and a path for my dogs to walk on (the doggies are about 14-15 inches tall, the snow is 20"). I keep having fantasies about packing up the car and driving someplace warm until spring.

    Give me some practical clean eating tips, please!

    My advice: get a crock pot. I do my steel cut oats in large batches in the crock pot overnight and it is AWE.SOME. Lately I've been making "Zucchini Bread Oats." I grate an entire zucchini, add 1 1/2 cups of steel cut oats, cinnamon, a few raisins and walnuts, and a teensy bit of maple...

    Can we PLEASE have a snow day on a weekday???

    I'm withya. Gov't Girl. I'm in Maryland and there was no street clearing on Saturday or Sunday...but last night, they were out plowing and treating the roads like crazy. Don't they understand?? I don't actually WANT to go to work! They could be conserving their plowing budget by only plowing on...

    Who to BLAME for obesity?

    In spite of my glib post earlier... ...I know this is a serious issue. When I think back to my early 20s, I absolutely shudder. I had NO IDEA how to evaluate my diet. I had no sense of how many calories I should eat, or what was healthy, or anything. At all. I wasn't overweight, but if I hadn't...

    I don't know what the HH is, but I think I want to go there if Ewan is going to be there. Also, I am offended that I wasn't specifically invited. No more PMs for anybody!

    Which kettlebell?

    I really like the AOS workouts and TKBW, but I still think Lauren Brooks is my favorite. The production quality isn't as slick as AOS, and it IS her very very first DVD ever, but the workouts themselves are so good that any small imperfections (and they are very small) in the DVD don't matter...

    I'm eating almonds right now, Sparrow. I'd PM one to you, but I don't think it works that way.

    Which Lauren Brook DVD to start with?

    I was just thinking about a few threads from a while back in which several people mentioned they had purchased KBs at Target and were able to return them if they needed to go heavier/lighter. I know Target has an easygoing return policy (mostly) - so if you purchased your KB there, and you...
