Rice and BeansI make this a lot and in lots of different ways. It is a great staple and can either be made vegan or non-vegan, when used with actual meat or bone broth.

 

Lemon Everything CakeI call this the Lemon Everything cake because it encompasses all types of lemon desserts all in one dish. The bottom is like the center of a lemon meringue; custardy and dense. The middle is lighter but still dense, like a standard lemon cake. The top is airy and super light, like lemon angel food cake. The icing on top is thin and crisp. This is a lemon lover's dream dessert!

 

Tahini Salad DressingThis salad dressing is made with oil, vinegar, and tahini, and is a huge staple in our household. Easy to make and lasts a long time.

 

Chilled Cucumber and Dill SoupThis soup was inspired by several online recipes and is made with a combination of yogurt and buttermilk. It's fresh, smooth, and bright. This recipe makes a good appetizer any time of the year.

 

Folding Fitted SheetsI remember the days when we did not have fitted sheets and if the sheet was not tucked in good, you would wake up and find yourself laying on the mattress.

 

Fused Plastic Straw OrnamentThis ornament is made from tiny pieces of plastic straws, fused together by the heat of an iron. When fusing plastics, wear a mask in a well ventilated area.

 

Rocky (Pit Bull)I got Rocky from a friend that breeds Pit Bulls about 3 months ago. He was extremely shy and timid my first time meeting him, but I knew with a lot of love and care he would blossom into the amazing, outgoing, happy puppy that he is today. I love him dearly, he is my best friend.

House Training a Rescue Dog?I'm so frustrated with my new rescue. I've had her for less than a week and evening potty time is very frustrating. She takes so long to pee outside at night.

Ml350 Headliner Has a Stain Due to Sunroof Leak?My Ml350 has a water stain on the headliner. I was told the tubes that drain the sunroof are clogged, but it's been raining for a whole week and the headliner is still dry. Is it possible the the the clog has been resolved? Or the stains are due to the window being left open?

 

Adopted Yorkie Pees in the House?I adopted/rescued a 7yr. Yorkie. The original owners stated he was house broken/trained. It has only been a week, but he keeps peeing in the house (kitchen). I have put up gates between the kitchen and living room to limit the peeing in one area.

Removing Dye Transfer from Dried Clothing?I laundered polyester/spandex/cotton blend light colored clothing with a pink, purple, and blue 100% polyester top.

Treating a Feral Cat With Eye Drainage?We have a feral cat that just showed up a couple of months ago. We first saw him several yards away as he ran off. With a lot of patience over the last few months, he now will come within 2 or 3 yards to eat food. Any closer and he hisses. We've noticed he has bilateral eye drainage that appears to be blood tinged - it is light pink.

 

Value of a Brandt Mahogany Pie Crust Table?What is my table worth?

 

Can I Remove the Photochromic Treatment from My Glasses?I got glasses from the optician after doing an eye test. They then offered to make my lenses photochromic. I decided to add on that extra feature so it could turn into, kind of like sunglasses in the outdoors. Now that I'm using it I don't really like it and want to know if I can get rid of it or I have to keep it.

 

New Kitten and Resident Female Cat Don't Get Along?How do I get my older cat to like my kitten? I have 2 older cats. The male has taken to her, but the female won't. She bites her, cut her, and keeps swiping her. I really don't want to get rid of of the kitten as she's settled in apart from a few blips. Can anyone give me any ideas on what to do?
