I used to collect the "Yorktowne" collection by Pfaltzgraff for quite a few years. ( It is similar to the Folk Art, but not the same.) The stoneware is off white with blue. Most of the pieces we have are not old, but we have a few oldies in there. My entire kitchen when we lived in Vermont was this pattern. Now my family wants to go to something different, so the set will be sold at some point soon. I think I would like to go with something different too.

Ok, most have you have probably heard of this story, Four Loko is an alcohol-laced energy drink. Equal to downing 3 beers, a Red Bull, and an Expresso all at once. GREAT for young adults, college students, who dont understand/care that the caffeine supresses the drowsy feeling that your body uses to give you a hint you are at/ or have passed your limit. So HEY, Drink MORE! It has been named "Liquid Cocaine", and glorified by rappers ( which we all know are such a worthy,life affirming group of artists). What may the can look like? It looks similar to an energy drink can. I have about had it wi

Ok, I THINK I am hearing a great big "NOOOOOOOO!" It was just a question I wanted to throw out there for curiosity's sake. My husband and I were travelling home from FL on Sunday, and we got into conversations about malls, discussed whether Paulding would benefit from one ( we didnt think it would either). We come from VT where they wont even allow Wal-Marts in the state. I will say that I only visit the Avenue for specific occasions. I like it, but its too pricey for me. We only visit the mall once or twice yearly, so that wouldnt be of interest to us. I, too believe the malls arent being b

Would it benefit Paulding County to put a mall here? If it was your decision- where would you put it?

Yeah, that pretty much finished that for me...... -
Well, I dont. I look to make sure that my door isnt coming in contact with the car next to me. What follows is a TMI, rather unpleasant situation ( to put it MILDLY), so if you get grossed out ---Dont read further---. My hubby and I went out to Buffalo Wild Wings, we pull into parking space,and get out. We take a step, and he realizes that he left headlights on, goes to my side to open door to shut them off, makes a comment " Somebody blew cookies.. " I turn around, and right on the outside by my car door, there is a pile, with my footprint in it. OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH my oh my oh my was I MAD

PLEASE keep the heating pad on a low setting also. You can use fleece, cotton, etc to create a little nest. If you have a small stuffed animal, you can put that in there as well. That will give him something to cuddle with, which is very necessary. In the AM, if he has made it through the night, call Cobb County Emergency Clinic, and see who they recommend for licensed wildlife rehabilitators. I dont believe we have one rehabilitator in Paulding County, although maybe that has changed. The GA Dept of Natural Resources can also give you a list of rehabilitators by county 800-241-4113. Lastly,

Butterflies. Butterflies. Butterflies. Did I mention butterflies? This spring and summer I have focused my garden towards attracting butterflies. Then My husband and I got the idea of doing a butterfly garden on the side yard, complete with 4-5 butterfly bushes. We have now counted/identified about 15 different types here! Some people would be annoyed- you walk out your front door to the driveway, and there are huge swallowtails all around- not me! LOVE IT! Next year we focus on hummingbirds!!

what have you had to explain to an older generation
wenfen replied to Sadie612's topic in RECENT TOPICS
I was reading a brochure out loud ( I am thinking of a family reunion) on a local vacation spot (Banning Mills) that has a zip line, horseback riding, trails for walking, swimming pool, and skeet shooting. Do not say skeet to the younger generation. It is now considered part of the male reproductive process. -
what have you had to explain to an older generation
wenfen replied to Sadie612's topic in RECENT TOPICS
I am 43. So in this case I am the "older generation" . I said something totally innocent today, and my daughter ( 14 yrs old) nearly dropped to the floor in shock- her eyes BUGGED out and she said "WHAT DID you JUST SAY?" and I looked at her like she was nuts and said it again. She said "MOM!!" And I said, confused, "WHAT?" and attempted to explain what the definition of the phrase was ( innocent, not having to do with anything off-color at ALL) but she was shrieking with laughter, so I had to explain it again. So she finally said, "Well , that's NOT how it's used in school!" Nothing like lear -

I am sorry to my Facebook friends who have already read my post about this on Facebook. " Sister Wives" is a new reality show which will depict a man with 4 wives and 15 children. They use the phrase " multi-wife". I heard about this on the Alan Hunt radio show first, thought, "No, he must have that wrong". Well, I was wrong. TLC ( which stands for The Learning Channel) has had some decent reality shows ( not ALL of them ) but I really have to say this is...I cant even come up with .... Ok to show polygamists on TV, like its no big deal, but no one is allowed to say " fart " on tv?
