| RE: What Do You Think of Facebook? |
I have not had any problems. As others have said, you can make your profile private and none can see it except those on your friends list.
You don't have to play the games and if you choose not to, and don't want friends sending you "gifts" and stuff from them, you can "block" them and you won't get things from those games anymore.
Obviously, you can "ignore" friend requests from those you don't want seeing what you post on your wall.
You have a lot more control over your page than what some here are leading you to believe.
It really is a wonderful way of reconnecting to old friends and family that you may have lost touch with. I found a friend that I went to a tech school with almost 20 years ago and wondered what had happened to her.
I have been able to share pictures with friends that I see all the time AND those I don't get to see very often.
I love it! Renee ... View related article. |

| RE: Cross Breeding Dogs |
I would say they would be min-pin/chihuahua mix. We have a chi-a-poo (3/4 chihuahua, 1/4 poodle). She was bred with a full bred chihuahua and her puppies are also considered chi-a-poos because of the poodle in the mother.

| RE: Window Treatment for Sliding Doors |
When we took our vertical blinds down, I had wanted to put up a curtain. I wanted a curtain that would block light in addition to looking nice. I was tired of the vertical blind look.
Curtains made for patio doors started at about $130.00 and went way up from there, if I could find them at all.
I found light-blocking curtains at Wal-Mart for around $20 each. I had to buy three of them and hem them up so they wouldn't drag the floor, but the final cost was around $60 and you could even sew them together to make one big panel if you wanted to, but I haven't done that. I'm still debating on doing that. When I can find a traverse curtain rod the right length and on sale, I want one of those too to put the curtains on so when I close them, I won't have to adjust them every time so they look even all the way across. ...

| RE: Reusing Plastic Tool Storage Boxes |
Are these the flat-type plastic cases like cordless drills come in? If so, we have converted them into first aid kits...spray painted it white, then spray paint a red cross on it. They could also make a good lap desk, with space inside for paper, pencils, pens, crayons, etc. I could also see keeping scrapbooking supplies in them, or individual cross stitch projects that are in progress, with chart, highlighter, project in or out of embroidery hoop, scissors, baggie with floss for that project, and baggie for scrap floss.
They would be great for transporting small items that you don't want to get mashed in-transit.
Just a few ideas. ... View related article. |

| RE: Looking To Buy An Iced Tea Maker |
I also use my coffee maker to make my tea. For one gallon of tea, I use 3 family size tea bags and fill the maker with water. I put the sugar in my tea jug, fill with the hot tea and then add ice and water.

If the essential oil doesn't work, you could try the same thing with charcoal. It absorbs odors.

| RE: Can I Soak an Embroidered Pillow Case in White Vinegar? |
I agree that vinegar will be safe for your needlework. Just make sure it's white vinegar and not apple cider vinegar or some other colored kind...it would probably stain it.

| RE: Crock Pot Stuffing Recipe |
I personally don't like stuffing (or what I call "dressing") made with *bread*...I like to use cornbread....much tastier!

| RE: Stretch Your Canned Soup |
Great idea! You could also just add some bullion with the extra water or potato flakes. Potato flakes also help to thicken soup that's too thin for your taste.
