  1. The Gods Grew Tired of Us. It's a documentary about a few of the lost boys of the Sudan who come to America for a better life. Watching their amazement over something as simple as a light switch is humbling. It will definitely make you appreciate everything you have and life in America. I saw it many years ago, so it's not new but I recommend it to everyone.

     

    eta-It was their work ethic and appreciation that I found so inspiring.

     

    I watched that for free at hulu through my laptop:

     

  2. HGTV used to have the old Carol Duvall shows online, just search for them.

    I loved watching her and learned so much (and spent so much too :) ).

     

    Thanks. I searched the HGTV website and shorter segments came up. I searched using the longer video option at google and the shows came up at the DIY network website. This is a link that also lists their other shows that can be watched online, too. Scroll down and you will see the Carol Duvall show listed:

  3. Are you looking for something fun and fascinating to do? Have you been looking for a place to meet interesting, well-rounded individuals? Then Book Lovers in Dallas, GA Book Club might be the place for you.

     

    Our club consists of a diverse group of women that meet on the first Saturday of each month at 6:00 pm in Dallas, Hiram or Marietta, GA. Our aim is to simply gather to discuss contemporary fiction (all authors are welcome) and some non-fiction. Needless to say, we are a group of book lovers who enjoy thought provoking, fun and in-depth discussions about the books our members choose to read. It's a wonderful way to discover all the authors that are out here.

     

    Members can choose a book of their choice and we will read it. We like to limit them to 500 pages or less and non-fiction. We would like for you to indicate that you plan to attend or not for each meeting. It will help us plan for future meetings. It's okay if you can't attend each meeting

    If you are interested in joining us from time to time or you want to be included in the monthly meetings, you have two choices.

     

    You can join us on Facebook:

    Are there any local book clubs that focus entirely on non-fiction?

     

    TIA!

  4.  

    Look at it this way: any category not listed can always fall under the Saturday 'pick your pleasure' sale. ;)

     

     

    I thought about that, but I had rather shop there on a week day so I thought I would ask Bookworm and see what the store said.

  5. Happy Hump Day, Pccommers :) !!!!!!

     

     

    As most of you know, our esteemed leader, Susan, has retired as owner from The Book Worm. Britaini has taken over and we have a few changes in store. There will be asthetic changes, and shuffling around of sections. We are in the process of removing some stale inventory so that we can make room for new.

     

    Britaini has decided to make a more permanent calendar of daily specials on a two week rotation so that you will always know the days best suited to your shopping needs. I will still post daily reminders, but I wanted to lay it out at once as well.

    I think it will be good knowing that far in advance what will be on sale when.

     

    How broad are the categories? For example is crafts under Art? Also, I didn't see plants listed (gardening, etc.).

  6. I've heard of them but never tried. There is also a weight watchers cupcake recipe that I have been meaning to try...Cake mix with pumpkin, to keep the fat down.

     

    ETA

     

    This super-simple 2-ingredient recipe is a Weight Watchers Fave!

     

    1 box devil’s food cake mix

    1 can solid pack pumpkin (15 oz.)

     

    Directions:

    Mix the two ingredients together. Don't add anything else that may be mentioned on the box, such as eggs, oil, or water. The mixture will be very thick and you will be tempted to add in other things to make the batter smoother. DO NOT DO THIS AS IT WILL RUIN EVERYTHING! Place batter into muffin tins (or mini muffin tins) lined with paper, or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes 12 regular or 36 mini muffins.

     

     

    Thanks. I'd like to try that recipe, too.

  7. Yeah, sorry 'bout that. We are in a rethinking period and deciding on to continue doing it... Feel free to let us know your thoughts. We will decide one day at a time right now but by the 1st of November, we will have a replacement or no selection of that link.

     

    Yes, I like the calendar. I like being able to see the specials in advance.

  8. I noticed that You Tube has some Route 66 episodes posted in parts. Does anyone remember the one about a mermaid?

     

    From TV.com/:

     

    Episode Summary

     

    The boys get jobs at the Weeki Wachee theme park in Florida. The park show features girls dressed as mermaids performing underwater. A shy girl Elissa emerges from the water and after demonstrating amazing underwater swimming talent is hired for the show. She talks about "coming from the sea" and implies that she is a real mermaid. Skeptical Tod falls for her but assumes that she just wants publicity to launch a movie career. Linc has a more open mind and believes her. Tod discovers too late that she was telling the truth.
