My dad's mother ate corn meal outta the bag and chased it with ice water. My mother's grandmother used to crave the ashes and soot from the fireplace when she was in her 20's/30's. She only gave in a few times to eat them because she knew they contained arsenic. Years later we realized her body was probably craving the calcium or potassium that are in ashes and soot. Still gross to me....

Party City's website says they are taking applications for the new Hiram location. Must be a Party City.

Agree on Hunts!!! It's not much to look at but the food is great, the prices are lower in comparison to those on the beach and the people make the place!! The seafood platter is a GREAT deal and enough to share. Calypso is a good buy as well. My kids love it there. They have a hamburger and a chicken sandwich that is enough for two. Their seafood has ALWAYS been good, no matter what we order. Their lunch portions are the same size as their dinner ones, just a little cheaper. We ALWAYS eat out for lunch and eat in for dinner, saves $$$ that way and it's not so crowded. I say STAY away from th

I took them a few months and lost 42lbs, under a dr's plan. I haven't taken them in over 2 months, continued my eating regiment and exercise routine....lost another 4lbs off of them! I think they serve a purpose for those healthy people who want to lose a few. My thought process is, if you see results sooner you're less likely to be discouraged and give up. However, if you do not adjust your diet nor start some sort of exercise program you will most definitely gain it back plus some. The pill is just an aid in helping YOU reach a goal....YOU have to maintain that goal

I soak mine in buttermilk for about an hour before I cook 'em. Take 'em out and place on a cookie colling rack. Beat the buttermilk and egg together. Dredge meat in flour, egg mixture, flour, egg mixture, flour then drop in my deep fryer. Fry till golden brown, drain on the cleaned cooling rack (this keeps it from getting soggy) serve with white cream gravy. I cut mine in smaller pieces to make it easier to handle them. These are good the next morning heated in the toaster oven to get crisp and then thrown in a biscuit! I flavor my flour with salt, pepper, cumin, red pepper (or white if I'

I did get my $1 off!!! WOO HOO!! Gonna try to do it again before the promotion is over

I found this site. They do free primary care/treatment but they can refer you to volunteer specialist. They're in Pickens County. Hope this helps..... My link ETA: Nevermind, it's Pickens County SC. My bad. I'll keep looking...

Sorry Honey, you can't get him to quit. He's gotta quit on his own. You can be there to help him quit but he's gotta be the one to decide he's ready to quit. Sending prayers for strength to you and your family and that he sees the light before he hurts himself or someone else to understand his addiction.

No I didn't. I had to take both DD's to, umm hmm.....dance! Looking forward to it this season though.

PM Short N Sassy, her DH is a PS cop who loves getting autographs from citizens!

OHH, OHH, OHH, ME TOO! Please....

My Oldest DD is on her 5th year with a GVP from Sally's. She also has a Chi bc she HAD to have one since it was supposed to be better. The only time the Chi is heated up is when she has friends over and they get ready at the same time....the friend has to use the Chi My middle DD uses a cheap Remington wet/dry she got at Dollar General, she loves it!

They say everyone has a twin.....I'm sorry

Well at least you're honest about it and have reasons/limitations to your actions. I've had people (like my DH) who says it's my right to do whatever I want right there. There wouldn't be that extra strip if it weren't meant to be used. That "my time is more important than yours" attitude is the real problem. I have a self diagnosed case of MAJOR road rage If I had to drive on the interstates in the mornings/afternoons I would most definitely be another stain on the reputation of Paulding residents on the evening news!

Well then....you're my good deed of the day! Girl....no, I was pretty dang accurate in my description. As my kids would say "fo Reeeel"

That's the same thing that chaps my a$$ at the intersection of Dallas Hwy/278/Bill Carruth! If you're going straight, get in the proper lane.....the left lane! Don't fly down the right hand lane and then cut off everyone who did the proper thing by getting in the left lane. Or that little extra right hand strip on going over the bridge on 92 just passed Hiram Sudie!

Oh dear Lawd....YES!!! After years of avoiding the camera at family functions bc of my weight, I decided this Easter I would step in to the frame from time to time. I had lost 42lbs, was down from a 14/16 to a loose 10. I was SO PROUD of myself! HONEY, when I saw the pics I was DANG!!! NEVER again! I didn't look any smaller, my hair (that I thought was "working it" that morning) looked like a bad wig that had been knocked sideways on my head, and my calf's looked like they belonged to a linebacker. My makeup was so out of balance between my eyes and lips that I looked like I went from a 3 day

A friend had along the same issues. She deleted her entire fb acct, stayed off for about a month and then opened another one in a different name. When asked about it, she merely said "I let it take up too much of my time and I didn't need to be in everybody's drama. It was just too much" That explanation worked. Maybe something to consider....

Mine will try their hand at interior decorating and I at "letting go"....they get to redo their rooms in whatever style THEY choose. We have passes to Six Flags (although I refuse to go once it gets really hot), at least one trip to Dixieland Fun Park and IF we raise enough funds each one of my girls won scholarships to take Master Dance Classes in Las Vegas. Notice I said they won scholarships for classes, everything else is at mommy & daddy's expense... We'll be out and about trying to EARN the money. I can't stand it when people stand around begging for money for nothing in return

Girl....you are too small for lipo! My sister had several of those "roller massaging" treatments at a local day spa with success. It didn't completely remove all of it but enough so that when she tanned you couldn't see what was still there. Maybe that's a better less invasive option.... ETA: Just found these...My link My link

I started Dr Vitkin's in Jan of 2011. Lost 10lbs the first month. I then switched over to Peachtree Weight Loss in Hiram. They are WAY cheaper, offer the same meds PLUS other options, the doc spends more time with me than "everything going ok? Ok then, we'll see you next month" NEXT.... Amy and Brittany are great there. They offer numerous suggestions for meals and snacks. All total, I have lost 42 lbs. My problem wasn't that I ate too much. It was that I didn't eat enough and what I did eat was crap! I eat tons more now than I did, 6 times a day. Most eat 5 times but I am up so early and

For $25?! WOW! What's the approx amount of pics in 15 min? I have tons of dance pics of my girls and bc of that, I can't afford regular pics. School pics are awful and EXPENSIVE! I'm thinking this is sounding better and better.....

1800....now it's 1900! I know I'm always late for things but never an hour. Looks like I'm not going. Dang, now I HAVE to do the laundry

:rofl: HOLD THE PHONE! Does that mean I'm left here to suffer through the rest of this High School Musial Marathon Oh, shut the front door!

Someone else asked about a wreck on Hiram Sudie, taffic being detoured. Can't you detour down Davis Mill off of Hiram Sudie and connect somewhere with Vernoy Aiken? Just a thought.....IDK, I don't have a scanner and can NEVER get the online one to work.
