We have a food waste/compost program. Our problem is that we are semi rural and that means wild animals like bears, racoons and the like. We use the small container. When the bag is full we put it in our deep freeze. On the day of pick up the bags go into the large roll to the curb food waste container. They are frozen so no slop, no mess and no scent.

Now I must say the best "cookbook" we had this year...was a calendar. Yup, a calendar. We have had some fantastic meals this year because of the calendar, Chile Peppers . Not one recipe was a dud. So good in fact we went to great lengths to purchase the 2012 calendar. I see another tasty year in our future. What Was Your Favorite New Cookbook of 2011? |

I didn't really like brownies until about 2002. My creative writing teacher made some for our end of semester bash at her place. I must of had eight brownies that day on top of all the other great food we all brought. They were moist and gooey and no icing required. I have made them since and they are always a hit.

I like other Canucks have had turkey in October. But of course we don't limit ourselves to turkey at Christmas and Thanksgiving. We have it every couple of months. Survey: Are You Making a Turkey for Thanksgiving? |

I would suggest boil some water in the kettle, fill up your mug with the hot water, a gloop of cranberry juice and a slop of orange juice. Tart but lovely. What Can I Do With 100% Cranberry Juice? Good Questions |

I do think it is lovely. Just a couple of questions...where is the wood for the wood stove stored? and where does she store all the outdoor furniture during the rainy season/winter? Sue's Simply Stunning Houseboat House Tour |

nice work. I was wondering about single sinks. I just love a double sink. Do you find the single deeper sink works just the same? Or is it better? Kris's Small, Sleek Kitchen |

I think people who are going to love a house will look past the colour (as paint is the cheapest way to change a space) and will by because it has location location location, good value and has has the space required. To Paint or Not to Paint: Selling a Colorful Home? |

We live in a settlement and in the almost 5 years here we have met many. It wasn't difficult. As you meet one you meet the neighbour they know and so it grows. It is good. Some we meet and don't care to socialize with but we know their names and such. Currently we have neighbours two doors down that just left on their honeymoon for a month...we are taking in their mail and watering their garden. Last year another neighbour went across country in their RV and we checked their house and picked up their mail. My new book club has more than half of its members within walking distance...good way to enjoy a glass of wine and walk home without concern. Do You Know Your Neighbors? |

We have one. It was purchased to use for drying a huge batch of home grown peppers. It worked great but if you are doing hot peppers beware..it can get fragrant. And of course some things with great moisture content take longer than you expect so the thing is on constantly. Which kinda means you want to be around the house.
