I've got the Moby thing on my list next time I'm at the store that carries it! Glad to know others like it too. My daughter is only 7.5 months and already is drawn to the faucet and often insists on standing in her baby tub and tries to grab at it, so we need to get that thing covered ASAP before an accident happens!

I don't use wine either so looked up what to use instead of white wine in a favourite recipe and one of the suggestions was gingerale, so I've been using that and it works! Best Substitutes for Cooking Wine?Good Questions |

I'm Canadian and was raised with the European style, which I believe is the standard up here. On a cruise someone asked my husband and I if we were European because of how we handled our utensils!

I have a 3 month old.. Our family room has a jumperoo and a play mat. There's a swing in the TV room and a bouncy chair in the kitchen, plus toys, a bumbo and a tummy time mat that move around the house.. My husband isn't a fan of all this stuff, but she's the new boss! Why Ugly Is Okay Sometimes |

Happened to a friend of mine (in Canada so I guess we're not getting the European version here either!). She was baking squash and RIGHT before it was ready, BAM.. the dish just exploded in her oven. Modern Glass Bakeware: More Likely to Shatter? |

Genius, pure genius! Like Slow Loris points out, I do spend a bit of time laying everything out to try to minimize scraps, but it's inevitable with normal cutters. This would save so much time from having to re-roll the scraps over and over (and you wouldn't be left with that lump that's too small to be re-rolled to a cutter size that ends up being a lump-shaped cookie) Forget Scraps: Make Multiple Cookies With A Single Cut |

Oh PS, speaking of the same thing under different names, have you guys ever pointed out that HFCS is called glucose/fructose in Canada? Something I didn't know for a long time so went around thinking I was avoiding it when I wasn't! What's the Deal with High Maltose Corn Syrup? |

Honestly you're probably right that it's similar to HFCS, but at the same time I think it's unfair to jump to conclusions based on assumptions. Maybe some more digging should be done before writing it off and getting angry..or maybe that's just me. What's the Deal with High Maltose Corn Syrup? |

My brother saved a neighbour's kitchen when we were kids.. the cupboards were engulfed in flames from unattended french fries left in a pan of hot oil.. my brother (he was probably about 8 or 9 at the time) ran in with a fire extinguisher and put it out! I Almost Burned Down The Kitchen When... |
