Getting married does not give anyone license to behave like an asshole. The whole "big day" mentality is becoming more and more of a free pass for people to behave badly, rudely, treat their friends and family like crap, and spend a shitload of money to pretend you're a shit princess for a day (which for many people…

Yeah, that's one of the drawbacks of simmering things on the stove. But it's kind of like an hours long "love fest" of flavour, so even if you're full at the end, you've tasted the hell out of your creation...alright, that's an excuse, but it's really fun.

I haven't watched GH in 25 years, but when I was in Junior high, my best friend and I would come to my place after school, my mom would make a big pot of tea, and we'd watch General Hospital back in the "serious" Luke and Laura days...it was really big back then. Also, Liz Taylor was on it for a while, the plot was…

Pasta e Fagiole, which I meant to make yesterday, but was a bit lazy. I'm using Italian sausage, orechiette, a tomato/veggie base with onions, garlic, chicken broth, kidney beans, carrots, zuchini...I keep "testing" it as it's simmering, just to make sure it doesn't need anything else. OK, I'm just a glutton.

The older you get, the more makeup seems to age you. That said, I love makeup, and I just tend to follow the "five" rule: no more than five makeup products on my face at any one time. So, I"m good for mascara, gloss, eyeliner, blush/bronzer, and a mineral powder or tinted moisturizer. That combo seems to work for me,…

I recently completed the Canadian Federal fire arm safety course for both restricted (hand guns) and non-restricted (long guns) firearms. It was an intensive course that taught me how to safely handle and control a gun. I believe that gun ownership is a privilege, one that should have vigorous laws, education, and…

I'm sorry. You're obviously a kind and caring person, and we need more people like you, true lovers and champions of the most vulnerable among us. Years ago I had two cats, siblings, who died of leukemia within days of each other, and it was very hard to see their health declining, with no remedy available.

I absolutely agree on that. It's such a great toothbrush, though. So I just make sure to clean it out on an empty stomach.

It sounds like once the 15 minutes of MTV fame is over, it's welfare. Unless of course these women have been socking away that $60,000 for their educational goals.

Just over three years ago, my former husband and I split up. Once the words were out there, "it's over", I felt a bit sad, but very quickly I became kind of excited at the prospect of starting over. I spent the next year changing some things in my life that I'd been unhappy about, ridding my home of his massive…

I'm 45, and I've also been told that I look much younger. That's not a bad thing, as far as I'm concerned, although I don't worry about getting/looking older. I'm starting to get some fine lines, my pores appear a bit larger than they used to, so I'm definitely seeing some changes happening. I think that genetics play…

That's so funny, sounds like exactly what I would have done! I've always been intrigued by pressure cookers, as I love to cook, and it seems like they'd be an interesting appliance to try...but, yeah, I think I'd be terrified of exploding food...sounds like you've got it under control, though. Is it used mainly for…

Your's sounds like something right up my alley. My husband and I are making meatball sandwiches with sriracha mayo, mozzarella, and parmesan, under the broiler until they're all melty and awesome. And asparagus on the side...yeah, maybe that's a bit weird.

I have two pairs of the studio crop pants. I've had both for over a year and a half, and wear one or the other pair every day. When I come home, I change into them and they're super comfortable, with enough stretch, but they don't get baggy. Because they're so light weight, I brought them to Buenos Aires a couple of…

How do they do that? Striking resemblance, not sure how to feel about this. I have a super huge crush on Christopher Walken (now, not as a boy, just to be clear), Scarlett, not so much. I think it's mostly the noses, but still.

That was great. Funny, my mom is a super thrift store shopper. She's retired and loves to find awesome treasures Goodwill/Sally Ann/Garage sales all the time. A few times a year, she'll mail me boxes of items from her thrift store travels, a lot of it wonderful (not so much the black leather biker vest, but I'm sure…

So cool, another Daryl fan! I've been loving Daryl since he went looking for Carol's daughter, and brought Carol the flower. The Lil' Ass Kicker scene was the icing on the cake. My "Daryl Love" snuck up on me, but he's definitely my favourite character. BTW, too bad about the Merle discovery, otherwise Daryl would be…

Hadn't seen this. Will have to check out more from Macklemore. So thanks for posting, and yep, I was weeping. Screen's still a bit blurry.

This is a thoughtful, intelligent response to the article, and I appreciate that you have a realistic perspective to the entire "nutrition" slog that we all seem to experience every couple of months when a new article comes out. Finding out what the new "superfood" is in any given month is kind of depressing...it just…
