  1. I haven't eaten many wild foods before, but after reading how healthy purslane is I would like to see what else there might be growing wild. Here's a link to an article written by Euell Gibbons many years ago. Does anyone remember his book---and the TV commercials? http://www.motherearthnews.com/real-food/wild-asparagus-zmaz76mazhar.aspx
  2. My sister and I watched it. I don't remember Barnabas not being in the first year of episodes. This article mentions how filming went on despite difficulties with the set and describes the target audience, etc.: Dark Shadows From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Original channel ABC Picture format Black and white (June 1966 – August 1967) Color (August 1967– April 1971) Original run June 27, 1966 (1966-06-27) – April 2, 1971 (1971-04-02) Dark Shadows is a gothic soap opera that originally aired weekdays on the ABC television network, from June 27, 1966 to April 2, 1971
  3. Since sap is boiled to make maple syrup I don't really understand why she used it.
  4. I didn't see where molasses was on the list of ingredients for the energy bars. Are you thinking about maple syrup? I didn't write the recipe. You could contact the owner of the blog about it.
  5. This is one of the books I noticed at amazon.com/. There are several reviews posted at various blogs: May I introduce to you, Raw Energy: 124 Raw Food Recipes for Energy Bars, Smoothies, and Other Snacks to Supercharge Your Body Raw Energy, written by Stephanie Tourles, came to me courtesy of Michelle from Storey Publishing. I was, and still am, very thankful for the opportunity to read through this book and get a better understanding of what it means to munch on Raw Food Recipes. For years, I have heard of folks that enjoy "Raw Food" diets but I honestly didn't see myself goin
  6. I think it's an interesting idea. Some foods like the raw energy bars look like they would be a good start. I just checked amazon.com and am amazed that there are so many books on the subject: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=raw+foods&x=14&y=22
  7. I saw this recipe for raw energy bars: http://www.kombuchachic.com/?p=46
  8. I was surprised to learn that it's made in the UK.
  9. The company says it's safe. From their website: What is Gelli/Squishy Baff? It is a totally unique, completely safe, UK manufactured powder that turns ordinary water into glorious, colourful goo! Gelli Baff has passed all toy safety testing in the UK, in Australia & has recently passed a very stringent USA testing (FDA). A second stage powder then simply turns the goo back to water again so as it can be easily drained. Firstly sprinkle the "goo former" (Stage 1) evenly over the surface area of the water (try to avoid adding large clumps of powder as this will take longer to fo

  11. You said you just got married. This is the time to be building a strong foundation for your marriage. Time spent with your son will reap rewards for a lifetime. Modern lifestyles are often too much like this song. Notice the artist says: " ...this song scares me to death." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-s5r2spPJ8g
  12. Do you use milk made from almonds, rice, oats, coconut, soy or hemp? Do you buy it or make your own?
  13. What is good about the job you have now? What could you do to make it better?
  14. Would your husband consider working for himself? If you kept your current job would you be able to help him some? Would that be fulfilling?
  15. Last year you posted that you had an opportunity to move to England and work there. Is that the company you work for now? You talked about your SO supporting a grown son, etc. I thought that was who you married. So you married someone else?
  16. Here's a spa version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjxYcp00RCs
  17. I've never had a GBS but plan to buy one soon. I want a large screen. I noticed this Garmin at amazon.com for $149.00. The newer model is app. $100 more. What are important features to look for? How much difference is there between different brands? http://www.amazon.com/Garmin-Bluetooth-Portable-Navigator-Lifetime/dp/B003ZX8B3W/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1325858684&sr=8-3
  18. It has 2 (1) star reviews at Amazon.com/. Here's one of them: 1.0 out of 5 stars Awful!, December 29, 2011 By Katherine J. Mahaffy (Dayton, OH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) = Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars This review is from: Squishy Baff Bath Kit (Toy) My kids got Squishy Baff for Christmas. Let's just say that if these folks can't spell "Bath" right they probably can't turn goo back into water. And that's exactly what happened - I poured the first packet into the water and magically we had a gooey gel
  19. Algore? I thought we were talking about Angkor ...
  20. Drought played a major role, but other factors were involved also. The title the author of the article used seems to be incomplete. From your link: "It's important to understand, however, that failure of the water management network was not the sole reason for the downfall of the Khmer Empire," Day added. "The collapse of Angkor was a complex process brought about by several different factors social, political and environmental."
  21. I was searching for a thread about something else and saw this one about White Elephant parties. I've been to them before but not lately. Did anyone go to one this past Christmas? What was the funniest gift, most popular, etc.? http://paulding.com/forum/index.php/topic/50360-white-elephant/page__p__514653__hl__%2Bdoes+%2Banyone+%2Bchia__fromsearch__1
  22. I've been looking for some recipes that use chia seeds. This recipe looks like it might be pretty good. I would probably alter a few things though. http://ohsheglows.com/2011/01/23/tropical-lemon-cranberry-coconut-chia-bars/
  23. They may not be as aware of issues as you would think. These two incidents both happened in GA---the first at the Walmart parking lot in Douglasville: Body Found in Car in Walmart Parking Lot Updated: Friday, 21 May 2010, 8:30 AM EDT Published : Friday, 21 May 2010, 8:30 AM EDT DOUGLASVILLE, Ga. (AP) - A body found in a car in a Walmart parking lot in Douglas County has been turned over to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation for an autopsy while police try to identify the victim. Chief Chris Womack of the Douglasville Police Department says the car sat in a corner of the lo
  24. I searched to see if I could find anything about littering being associated with an increase in crime and found this: Graffiti and litter lead to more street crime 10:17 21 November 2008 by Andy Coghlan People become more disobedient in environments plagued by litter and graffiti, research has shown. They can be tempted to trespass, drop litter, and even steal money if they perceive from their environment that it's OK to break rules - such as when "no litter" signs are flagrantly ignored. "[it's better to have] no rule than one that no-one complies with," says Kees Keizer,
