I made some bomb pot roast in 50 minutes in that thing. Also a 3lb pork shoulder in a little over an hour that I shredded for tacos. It is a little intimidating the first time you use it, though. It’s just not very intuitive. But yes, the manual is helpful.

When I was young I loved that series on A&E “America’s Castles” where they focused on the homes built by those “gilded age” society peeps. They did a good job of putting it all into historical context, I thought. Obviously this show will be NOTHING like that, but I’m excited for the costume porn and the recreations of…

I don’t have kids with my ex-husband, but we’re very friendly, so I get what she’s saying too. I have a lot of love and affection for him in a non-romantic way and I do feel like we have a relationship where, although not super close, if I needed help with something, he would be there for me. More so than when we were…

I live here and we barely hear about it either.

It is scary and living in the Seattle area there seems to be ZERO preparedness by the state, local governments, etc. At least that I’m aware of. Almost no one even talks about it.

I grew up in Southern Cal from birth to age 15 and earthquakes were very “meh” there. I’ve lives in the Seattle area since 15 and I’m much more concerned about a “big one” here because they’ve only ever had one large earthquake in the time that I’ve lived here and the area doesn’t seem to be prepared for earthquakes…

Barre3 has an online membership for $30 a month that I enjoy. They have 30, 40, and 60 minute workouts.

I’ve tried the Paula’s Choice one - it left a white cast on my face and made my makeup look discolored. I’ll check out the Aveda one. Thanks!

God I love Donna Meagle. I wish she was a real person.

If you want a toner that’s hydrating and anti-aging, try a glycolic acid toner. Paula’s Choice makes a good one: http://www.paulaschoice.com/resist-weekly-resurfacing-treatment-with-10pct-aha/765-7650.html?CAWELAID=120196850000000332&CAGPSPN=pla&CAAGID=46084400864&CATCI=pla-42887511144&ftlt=branded&utm_medium=cpc_shopp…

Guys, a confession. I do not use sunscreen unless I’m actually at the beach sunbathing and wearing no makeup. Here’s my issue: I have EXTREMELY oily skin, and I can’t find a moisturizer with SPF that doesn’t make it significantly worse and totally ruin my makeup. The other issue is that I can’t find a moisturizer with…

I saw it on Sunday and feel similarly. I feel bad for her, but I also don’t believe she was clueless about it.

Was it Casey Treat?

They sound like narcissistic parents who are always moving the goal posts.

I totally agree about Louis (and also not returning in general if Mike isn’t going to be on anymore). They could redeem Louis in my eyes, though, if they gave him a new cat. He was at his most charming when Bruno was part of his storyline.

I moved in with my S.O. a week ago. I already really, REALLY miss having my own place. And we only see each other on the weekend because our work schedules are opposite!

That makes more sense.

Voluspa! They’re richly scented.

What about a kitten wedge? I had this super cute, super comfy pair of Jessica Simpson kitten wedges about 5 years ago and I got a thousand compliments on them all the time. I wish I still had them so bad!

Her character got so evil towards the end of the series!
