Re: Explaining natural disasters to little kids
I agree with iLander, and I also think that it is hard for small children to understand that enormity of what has happened. It's a matter of HOW to explain it to them, and how to get them to understand that they won't get to go back to their old house, and that their toys aren't there anymore. I can... |

Re: Oklahoma City devastation
I'm so glad to hear PS'ers are ok! This has been so devastating. Mother Nature is so powerful and even being prepared we are sometimes left defenseless. All I can do today is pray for those affected. |

Re: What's fir supper?
I have to start remembering more pictures. Friday I made a cinnamon maple glazed salmon with brown rice that we drizzled with Trader Joe's Soyaki sauce. We had boiled corn on the cob and steamed veggies with it. It was SO GOOD. This weekend I made blueberry cobbler with fresh local blueberries from ... |

Re: I just wanna say -- the random comments thread
We have a rabbit warren! I feel like I have Watership Down in my backyard! Last night there were five, there is one very large, and four that are medium sized. We've seen one or two at a time before, but FIVE! They were all hopping around. We've been putting out slightly browned lettuce and last nig... |

Re: What's fir supper?
Tonight I am making maple cinnamon marinated salmon with jalapeno butter corn and herbed brown rice.

Re: What does your Summer Reading List look like?
Gypsy - So funny, your hates are my favorites! I will probably watch King Lear as well as read it. I've read Ivanhoe in Middle English so am pretty prepared for how Chaucer is going to be. I had a hard time with Ivanhoe but I got through... somehow. As for Dante, I read The Inferno in school and lov... |

Re: What does your Summer Reading List look like?
On the airplane on the way back from Scotland, I began reading "The Host" by Stephanie Meyer. I hate Twilight and find her a horrible author, but it looked intriguing and I couldn't stop myself. And the next thing on my list is those Patrick Rothfuss books but I didn't think they'd be sup... |

Hi Lisa! I updated on my Oh Hai board, but each week brings more right now. I think I'll get to stop my second waitress job.
