yes I have made a meal that quickly. Why does any of this matter? It all depends on how much food you have to make, and if you can live with one pot meals or have to have a variety of sides. I make all kinds of soups in 20 minutes, with 10 minutes left to heat some bread or make a grilled cheese.

Especially if you go ahead and prep some things you can do it. Easy, simple, no fussing.

Yes, I do that when I make a type of sandwich spread with them. It makes it taste better.

I think handmade valentine gifts are the best, and even better if it's small and made with the heart. My valentines are my pets, so I made my cat some heart mice catnip toy. I put my tutorial on my blog

Awww,

What's wrong with smelly sheds? I actually like the shed better, even though I can see the new shed is cute. There's something about keeping things just as they are and not updating it. Just a good clean out so it keeps it in decent condition.

I have been thinking about doing this in some of my rooms. The carpet is done for...it's been kept clean but it's 23 years old. Replacing it with laminate flooring is not in my budget right now, so this may be an option for me now, and it can always be covered up sometime!

Yay! I live here! I love walking through here on Thursday Night Live events in the summer.

I would totally get it, and leave it like it is. That is frise fabric and it's super expensive to buy! People actually buy that type of retro fabric to recover couches. If you do recover it, it is still a worthwhile couch, because where are you going to find something like that that is made like they made them back then? I have a sectional in the same shape and I love it, but my frise fabric is while/gold. But like someone said before, get it if you think it will fit your space well.

It bugs me that this one grocery I go to sometimes has the frozen section in the MIDDLE of the grocery. That means if I go in a linear pattern to shop and get my frozen things, I still have half of the store to shop, meaning my frozen items will thaw. I hate to skip the section and then come back, cause then I forget about it. Really, all the cold/frozen stuff should be a the front of the store, or in the very back.

Aww! I absolutely wish the best for you. This could really be a great experience for you and your children. Get them in on the fun and let them help you. They will then feel like it's more like home if they are part of it. I would go for some things that can be moved and converted into other uses. Like, floor cushions for the kids that can then be put on a bench, or a movable screen that creates divided space for the kids during the evening while they are there. IKEA has great things like this. They even have a curtain track that you can put on the ceiling and allows you to partition rooms off with the curtains.

I had this problem with the fridge at my apartment. While I was at an appliance store, I asked a guy about that issue (my carrots and lettuce would freeze too!) He said the way fridge's work is that the freezer mainly keeps the fridge part cool, that's why it would only freeze stuff on the top shelf. Don't know if it's the same problem, but he said it was related just how that type of fridge was made. I guess you could try turning it up and not keeping the freezer as cold.
