I never would have thought of trying this. I do have an old crock pot I use for crafts. I'll keep this in mind.

You can also buy candle wicks from a craft store and set them in the molds, too, to make new candles. I have reused the ends of candles to make new candles but I never tried it in the crock pot. I bet it would work just great! Thanks for the idea!

I start in late summer, right around the time the kids go back to school. You can usually get clothes on sale. We also have a wood burner in our living room that helps defray the cost of the heat. We make sure all the firewood is stocked up and we gather rubbermaid bins and fill them with...

This sounds delicious. I'm wondering what you use it on Geri? I could see putting it on a bagel maybe. Any other suggestions?

I've made these in the oven using L'il Smokies instead of hot dogs. I bet you could substitute the hot dogs for the smoklies in this recipe too.

So far today, just peppered bacon and an egg along with my caramel-flavored coffee.

Hi Shushu! Welcome. You'll love it here. Lots of friendly banter and great recipes!

I meant to add I agree with Barbara G. Anything with Kevin Costner is good. And I love Godzilla and King Kong movies. I can handle today's horror movies, they just don't really scare me.

Do you put any water in the crockpot? I thought there had to be some kind of liquid in there. I would love to try this potato recipe. And welcome! lol

Oh my gosh, I am such a movie nut. My list would be 100 long but I'll try to narrow it down. I love 'It's a Wonderful Life", "Up", "Perfect Storm", "Gladiator" and "Sleepless in Seattle".

Wages - I miss making a decent wage

I have never had good luck with pumpkins. I get gorgeous vines and the plants flower but they never seem to get pollinated because I never get pumpkins. I hope you have better luck.

We're saving up for a new freezer. We had one for 12 years and it died. We were going to get it repaired but decided a more energy efficient model was probably best. I miss doing the batch cooking and freezer prep. Someday....

I had some good luck with using corn stalks to support green bean vines and planting squash at the base to shade the roots. One mistake I made was to plant turnips and radishes too close together. They cross-pollinated and the turnips looked lovely but tasted like zesty radishes!

I have a family history of heart trouble. It took my grandmother, father and his sister. I have been working very hard to lose weight and get in better shape as a result. I have had 2 scares with chest pains and gone to the ER both times. Both times I stayed overnight and went through a battery...

I have used small 1 & 2 lbs weights when I walk on my treadmill. I felt a little more fatigue in my arms, but I never really noticed any benefits. But then, I'm no expert. Just my 2 cents worth.
