Vote for Kim on Design Star!
Todd may have energy to spare but Kim has TASTE and a great sense of style. Link below to vote.
Is anybody here watching Design Star on HGTV?

What do you think about the latest round of eliminations? Who do you think will win?


I think it will be Todd because he is so energetic and good-looking and he also is a very creative designer.


Other opinions?


My 14-yo daughter sold her first original design
for a snowboard decal this weekend. She is quite the little artist and a friend of her brother's came up to look through her portfolio.

Not only did he buy the design he wants to use for his snowboard, he told her he would like to put her in touch with a friend of his, a tattoo artist, who may be interested in some of her other work too.

This could be her toe in the door. She would love to do design and sell her own graphic T-shirts.
That's kind of intrusive. The subject is Design Star

Design Star - warning West Coasters: spoiler
Did anybody ever doubt it would be Kim? Woohoo!!!
he's not a real person, but that feeling is real - the magic. nm

Eggs
I would assume you can freeze fried eggs. I saw a box of eggs (like you would get on a frozen breakfast sandwich) at Wal-Mart in the freezer, so I guess they freeze and microwave fairly well.  Those frozen bfast sandwiches have eggs on them don't they? 
of course it's real!!! It's all real, hence the title
gross
Could be Brooke's eggs - (sm)
I was thinking that, but when would she have given them? Also Bridget involved?? -h-m-m-m food for thought.  Yes, watch Y&R (don't think Nick is dead either - I read he just signed a new 5-year contract).   I agree, nothing wrong with having a little daytime fantasy in our lives - LOL
do you care where your eggs come from?
Does it matter to you whether your eggs came from a cage-free environment, or a caged one?
finches and eggs

You are having a time of it, aren't you! 


This is not an uncommon problem.  Many birds lay eggs anywhere and everywhere and don't sit until the 2nd, 3rd, 4th or more clutch has been laid.  Breeders use those birds just to get the eggs and then put the eggs under another female who is sitting and she becomes the surrogate mother.  What they do is put a hole in the bottom of the nest so that when the eggs are laid they fall down the hole to the pan where the breeder can get them before they are consumed and/or broken by the parents.  Cool, huh?  I had a pair of Quakers who were fantastic layers but ate every darn egg before I could get to them.  I know that's not what you want to do, but this is how the pros handle bad sitters.  Or they use an incubator which automatically turns the eggs every couple of hours if the hen won't sit. 


Some birds eat the eggs out of boredom.  Some eat them because they are craving calcium.  Do you have cuttlebone in the cage?  Is it within easy reach?  Make sure it is.  If they are not using it, you may need to add a calcium supplementation to the female's food or she could become egg-bound trying to lay (egg gets stuck in the vent and bird dies.)  Consult your vet if she is not using the cuttlebone, as too much calcium is a really bad thing.  Watch the male for the culprit as well.  He may be low on calcium but since she is the layer you have to be especially careful of this when she is laying.  You have to know the proper dosage to add to her food and don't let the male eat the extra calcium if he doesn't need it because you don't want to overload his system.  If they are both eating the cuttlebone well, that is a good sign.  


If she starts to sit and you don't want the babies, remember to substitute another WARM (in your hands warm) item such as a small marble or a bead that resembles the egg so that she will sit for her 28 or so days while her body recovers from laying or else she will continue to lay and lay until she is dead.  They all need a period of rest between laying.  Check out bird supply sites on the Internet for fake eggs. 


If it gets to be too chronic, remove the male from the female to keep her from laying, at least while she builds her strength back up. 


My bet is a calcium deficiency perhaps in both birds because either one or both are not just playing with them/breaking them but eating them as well.  Don't add a calcium supplement without checking with your vet first.  You have to get the correct diagnosis and then the correct dosage. He/she can feel the birds bones and do an assessment, etc.  Find someone who really knows exotics. 


Be sure their diet consists of more than seeds.  Get them to eat some pelleted food.  The best is Harrison's I was once told but do whatever works.  Seed alone leads to malnutrition.  This goes for all birds of whatever type.  Also green veggies like Romaine which has calcium and they can drag a small piece around and play with it as they munch on it.  Small as in thumbnail size at a time.  My finches got carrot strips, broccoli florets, celery leaves, peas, etc. as toys to play with.  They had a ball and it was all natural. 


Best of luck! 


Oh, never! Not when we have EGGS to read about.

frozen eggs
You can buy frozen egg/biscuit sandwiches in the frozen section of the grocery store (think Jimmy Dean brand)which you can then microwave, so I would assume you could make your own. The worst that could happen is do a trial run of 1 and see how it turns out. Great idea for the kids, not to mention cheaper if you make them yourself. Never thought of it, but may try it for myself! I make my own mini-TV dinners out of leftovers and freeze them and then microwave them which is another good idea in my mind.
frozen eggs
You can freeze eggs but they tend to get a little rubbery.  Scambled eggs are better to freeze than fried eggs though, don't get rubbery.  And eggs you cook yourself and freeze are different than the eggs you get on breakfast sandiwches you buy at the store in the freezer section.  Good luck.  Just thought I would share this with you.  My husband is a chef, went to culinary school and all.
Umm... what's that got to do with the price of eggs?
That was a pretty off-subject, incoherent rant.
honey and eggs
If you really want a side business, keep chickens or bees. People like to buy organic food.
boiled eggs
Once I mentioned I liked boiled eggs. Everyone was so mad at me, there were 36 sitting in the middle of the table at dinner! Eat up!
deviled eggs
My eggs peel easily when I take them from the stovetop, pour off the hot water and then cover immediately with cold water and ice to cool.  This works for me.
Finches laying eggs
I posted about this about a week or two ago and got some wonderful advice.  We put a nest and nesting material in the cage but they never used the material. Roxie layed her third egg (I disposed of the first 2 when we first saw them) last night on the bottom of the cage.  She wouldn't sit on it.  We thought we would wait to see what happened and within a few hours the egg was gone with no sign of any eggshell or anything.  This afternoon found another egg, this time in the nest all by itself.  Mother still not interested in sitting it seems.  Okay, I typed about 10 charts and when I checked again the egg was completely gone.  Should I take the eggs out or leave them to be devoured?  I really don't want babies but am not sure how to proceed.  Would really appreciate any advice.  Thanks.  BTW, I am leaving early tomorrow morning and won't be back until late late Tuesday night so if anyone responds tomorrow I won't see it until Wednesday.

Can you freeze fried eggs? - sm
I thought I might freeze breakfast sandwiches for my son so he can have a quick breakfast before work - you know, bagel, egg, bacon and cheese.  Anybody know if eggs freeze and the microwave well? Thanks!
omelettes. eggs are economical protein
We like to have an omelette buffet about twice per month. We prepare all the family's favorite add-ins (diced ham, cooked potato, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, etc) and everyone chooses their own. Put 2 eggs in a quart-sized ziploc bag, seal the bag and simply squish the eggs by hand, then add your favorite ingredients. Remove as much of the air as you can, seal, and place all the bags in a large pot of boiling water for about 10 minutes (so as to not get each person's confused, you can write names on the bags with permanent marker). We add cheese after they're done, which the omelettes will slide right out of the bag. We just serve hot fresh biscuits and sliced navel oranges at the table to complete the meal. Everyone enjoys having their omelette their way and they're all done at the same time so no one's omelette gets cold. It only costs about $1 per person.
You guys must be as bored as I am to be reading about eggs! nm

I do miss the hiding and hunting for eggs
since my children are a little old for that. We hid eggs in neighbors yards (the ones will small children) when we knew they weren't home. We put candy and coins in all the eggs. One of the houses has a big sign on their front door that says "Thanks Easter Bunny". We were only able to watch one little boy look for eggs, but it was so worth it. Happy Easter to all!
i get eggs in the carton, Egg Beaters or egg whites

What do you make of the lab tech questioning the donated eggs? (sm)
There seemed to be something weird there, but can't figure out whose eggs they might be, if that is what was even implied.
Please allow me this vice. Implanting Brook's eggs - CRAZY!!

Our Christmas b'fast tradiation is scrapple and eggs
but I know that's no help! You have to be brought up on it to like. :)
Emeril Legasse taught me about hard-boiled eggs

Emeril says to put the eggs in the pot with the  cold water, and wait for it to boil, when it's a rolling boil, shut off the stove, and cover the pot for 13 minutes - and voila!!  Perfect hard-boiled eggs!!

If all this is for real...

I can't imagine that you haven't ripped her superior little head off! What a nerve this woman has.  Stand up for you and your child.  She is NO better than you are just because you chose to raise your children differently than she did! I am more like you, in raising my children that is, they do not have a lot of structured activities...my 7 YO just wants to be a kid and play! I don't force him to play with anyone he doesn't want to...and you shouldn't feel like you have to force your child to play with anyone he doesn't want to.


Take a stand against this woman...tell her what you think and let it go...what's she gonna do, ground you?


Definitely real.

Up and real
We've had ours up since the day after Thanksgiving along with all the inside and outside of the house decorated at the same time.
let's see, what is more REAL,
googling something
or experiencing with knowledge 1st hand???
Real Dad

My husband met his real Dad after 20 years of searching.  We live on the East coast.  His Dad lives on the West coast.  My MIL did not want him him meeting his Dad for the same reason. 


I can tell you this, his Dad was very receptive of him.  He answered some questions that neither my MIL nor anyone else could answer.  It was a nice reunion.


Please disregard your mother's opinion at this point because she is probably scorn and feels you should feel the same way.  It just doesn't work that way with the child that wants to know their Dad.  My husband didn't care what his Dad was like, but he wanted to see him and talk to him.


He now only talks to him occasionally, but I can say that my hubby sleeps much better at night and has learned acceptable, which has really helped emotionally with this struggle he has had all of these years wanting to know his Dad.


Even if you just write a letter explaining that you just wanted to know who he was and to make sure he is safe!  Holding grudges and putting a lot of emotional junk out there at first is sort of a turn-off in my opinion, but in time, you'll find your answers.


Good luck to you, and so glad you at least know he's safe and has a family that loves him, albeit he left out on you.  Hold those kinds of feelings in your heart instead of holding grief or demeaning feelings because the "good stuff" lasts longer and doesn't cause as much heartache! 


Take care and God Bless! 


Is this for real?
This could be anybody...and probably is NOT a young expecting couple, I'd bet...wow, how unbelievable..  BTW, how did you find this? Just curious.  Guess I'm just not very Internet savvy, cause I can't find anything worth looking at out there...
Get real
It is unrealistic to expect parents to pick up a high schooler - chances are both parents work.

You are missing the point here - the schools are not doing job!!!! Kids don't feel safe at school because they are not safe - and that's the fault of we adults. We have to demand better accountability from the school officials, including the school board. Even if it means some of the Dads - or Moms if they feel qualified - patrol the school themselves as a voluntary security force. It's pathetic that our kids have to even think about protecting themselves from other kids, but that is the world we have handed over to them.

HomeMT, I applaud you for protesting your child's suspenson. I think she should be allowed to carry the pepper spray. I would get her into a self-defense class, too, just so she can learn some other methods of protecting herself. This doesn't have to martial arts, but there are 1 and 2 hour classes where they can teach you methods to protect yourself from an attacke from behind, etc. All female children should have this trainng.


I am about as real as it gets
I am putting the truth out there and if some don’t like, nothing I can do about it. No one, including this girl, is allowed to have any sort of pepper spray, knives, guns, paper cutters and if you think children are not being suspended for just having drawings, then you are not listening to the world around you. A 15 year old knows right from wrong about school issues. I do not see this parent getting anything reversed. Her child was wrong in having it and if the parent bought for her to take to school, they are wrong as well. You should read my post because I said either she or someone else pick up the child if safety is such an issue. I think in high school most children hate riding the yellow bus and would rather walk,drive or be driven to school and usually is the case now. I hold the parents resonsible for the sad state of affairs with the schools- too much pampering with Johnny and Janie. The kids have no respect for their teachers nor for their own selves.
I am not real sure about this, but---sm
I have seen advertisements for the newer digital type hearing aides that run around $1500 for each ear. good luck.
Get real
This guy doesn't need a kidney - he has taken a new job and has to learn a new route. The mom should leave him alone - if he isn't smart or resourceful enough to contact the vast number of resources that NYC has to offer tourists and new city dwellers on how to get around in Manhattan, then he isn't smart enough to have that job.

For crying out loud, some of you women just won't let go of your little boys.
I think you are for real. .
I believe what you see is for real. . I don't see these things to this extent. just a little. I think it must be a gift. though we can't undernstand it fully. . .
Are they for real?
I can't imaging a service posting a pay of 5 to 7  cents per line - I wonder how many  people can (or would) work for that??
