I loved watching the show while growing up. I remember wishing Michael Landon was my dad, also loved watching him on reruns of Bonanza. And of course I had a huge crush on Dean Butler(Almanzo). I read all the books and still have them. I recently reread them all during Covid times. I love all...

I got the shots last year(I'm now 53) and had the usual sore arm but no other side affects that I can recall. My husband still needs to get his but he was recovering from triple bypass last April, doing quite well now. I was just talking to my parents about getting the shot and they said that...

My mom and I would see all the movies nominated for best picture in the theatres, that was back when there were only five. It was a lot of fun but there were some real head scratchers- The English Patient immediately comes to mind, lol. I loved The King's Speech, The Artist, Argo, Parasite. All...

Of the nominated movies, I have only seen Barbie and Maestro so far. Let's just say I'm glad I viewed Barbie at home on dvd, guess I'm in the minority but I thought it was a mess. I did love Ryan Gosling as Ken and the songs though. Maestro is a typical biopic and I found it boring. I have Past...

Same general area as you two(Orangevale)- I'm close to Roseville

Yes-we've had to do this before when my husband and I have gotten together with a big group on New Years Eve. At first someone suggested we split our bill evenly-I spoke up, that's not fair, we didn't order drinks or apps. I realize you can't get 6 separate checks, lol. But you can figure out...

Alcohol is not at all important to me. I experimented a little in my twenties (never been drunk though) and tried some wines and had a few beers. I never got the appeal and they tasted awful. Now that I'm early fifties, one drink and I get a headache or can't sleep at night. It's not worth it to...

Yep, people have made comments to me too-it's none of their business. I don't know why it's so important for some people to know why a person chooses not to drink, who cares? If I'm feeling salty, I'll respond with "Why do you drink?"

Yep-this is similar to my mother in law too. She doesn't ship us cookies as we live close by and will see her Christmas Eve, but she bakes about a month in advance and freezes everything. She loves doing it and experimenting with sugar free, gluten free, etc. I will try them but we do end up...

I don't start until December 22 and 23rd. I usually bake 4 different kinds-snickerdoodle, peanut butter blossoms, chocolate crinkles and bruna kakor. I like my cookies to be fresh and I don't freeze them. That makes a lot of work for me but it's worth it. I could see making and then freezing the...

Good to know-I'm finally making it this year, have had the printed recipe for a while but just never found the time. We are going to try it this weekend. Thanksgiving is at my sister's house but this way we have leftovers.

I haven't made this particular recipe, but I have several of her cookbooks and most of the recipes I've tried have been good. What I usually do is search for her recipe online-go to the website and you'll see all the comments. That will usually give you an idea of how it turned out. Just scroll...

Where to start? Driving at night One way streets Parallel parking Driving across bridges Driving in bad weather Driving in those construction zones on the freeway with the white barriers and the lanes are so narrow and you're trying to pass a semi Other drivers

Some numbnuts, lol. My husband and I love to use this almost daily when we come across idiots. It's Elmo & Patsy by the way. It was a novelty song but I always thought it was kinda cute.

Best- Oh Holy Night, Carol of the Bells Worst- Shake Up Christmas by Train( I love them but hate this song, truly awful), Little Drummer Boy(so annoying for some reason)

1. New roof-our roof starting leaking last winter during some major rainstorms-we've had a tarp up since January. Apparently we have a 30 year roof because the house was built around 1992, bought it in 2008. We've had 3 companies come out to give us quotes- all around 41k with gutters. This is a...

Wow- Schwann's is still around? We ordered from them a couple of times back when we lived in our previous house about 15 years ago. Our neighbor got the deliveries and so did my mother in law, so we thought we'd give it a try. I love the ice cream, they had some good stuff. I also remember mini...

Oh, I ate those Oscar Meyer hot dogs with the cheese unheated-took them to school and ate them for lunch, so gross now that I think about it. Also thought of two more-Buddig and Land O Frost deli meats-so thin and just nasty, but they were cheap! Underwood brand(devil on the can) meat spreads

Hostess Zingers, Ding Dongs, donettes. Steak Umms(not sure if it still exists) Nissin cup noodles(I think this is the same thing as pot noodles someone mentioned earlier) Kool-Aid

I get a Starbucks maybe 3-4 times a year, it's just too expensive and I'm not going to wait in a long line. A few days ago I got my annual pumpkin cream cold brew and I'll probably get a peppermint mocha frappuccino for the holidays. I preferred Java City when they were still around. And I loved...
