    Life After People....

    Wow thats really something. I do hope there is a time when the planet can reclaim itself and become whole again. You can see this very thing occured with the Mayan civilization. There are still masses of their structures left uncovered.

    I am offended

    In my opinion the quote is fine, even more so it came from someone who is in fact black. I dont see what is so wrong about calling someone black. I refer to people as white and and no one seems to take offence. Especially when I'm watching a reality tv show and I couldnt be bothered with...

    Which One IS Best

    I just started Cathe this week and I started with Timesaver. I bought this dvd before seeing that a lot of people poo pooed it. I am, however, happy with this purchase. Its a good beginner video with pretty good workouts. I'm not a big step fan so this dvd allows for an easier transition to...

    Do dried beans bother you more than canned?

    Soaking is very good. I just did them yesterday due to a suggestion in my healthy cookbook. It says to soak them for 10 hours, then boil them until they foam, rise, and if you are ready to cook them then boil them on medium for about an hour. Alternatively, freeze until you need them.
