  1. 24C, or 75F...it's beautiful outside right now.
  2. You never made that "dirt" cake with the crushed Oreo crumbs (as dirt), with the gummy worms rooting around in it?
  3. I make a spinach salad using toasted pecans and dried cranberries and Kraft Mandarin Orange & Sesame dressing. It was weird at first, because I was not used to a sweet dressing, but I like it a lot now...
  4. Golden raisins taste good by themselves. I've never tried baking with them because I think they will burn.
  5. This gets me thinking about food preferences...my children always pick the raisins out of anything. Do people learn to like certain foods over time? My husband detests pineapple in any form...can't even stand the smell of it.
  6. I only brought home generic toilet paper the one time...my husband never let me forget it. Men and their butts...sheesh.

  8. An apple tree to replace the one we dug out last year. It was an unexpected purchase...quite the adventure bringing it home in the Honda...
  9. There is such a shortage of labour where I live that we make jokes about only needing a pulse to get a job. In order to retain good, qualified staff, employers need to make their workplace appealing for the employees. I imagine it takes money to properly train staff, and those companies that have high staff turnover lose out to their competitors who have learned to treat their people with respect.

  13. Laurie, Do you have any Tim Allen/Home Improvement moments you can share with us?
  14. Gas just went up here to $1.319 per liter. I think it works out to around $5/gallon in the States. I wonder if this will change travel plans for people this summer. I still see lots of SUV's and trucks around, so the high gas prices obviously aren't affecting purchasing patterns...

  16. Years ago when Dumb & Dumber came out, my niece told me about going to see it with her dad and her uncle. It was the reverse of what you felt...she was mortified to be with these two adult guys who were going into hysterics with the tasteless jokes...
