Free Expired Items
This happened to me, but I didnt see the expiration date until AFTER I brought it home, it was one of the soft (and expensive) cheeses, and it was TERRIBLE. I didnt think cheese could sour so badly, but boy did it. It was one of my favorite cheeses, too. It...
Juice Containers to Fill Empty Freezer Space
I thought *I* was the only one who did this! Its also a really good idea, for those inopportune times the power goes out- its not often, but boy when it DOES happen, those ice jugs come in handy. Ive also frozen smaller Coke-sized bottles for small ice needs...
An Iris For Betty (Yellow Iris)
This is a Bearded Iris. Theyre also the national, and native plant of Jordan. The type you have is Amarillo Frills. Here is a link to page with a photo of one exactly like yours: https://www.schreinersgardens.com/page_6273_6033/amarillo-frills
An Iris For Betty (Yellow Iris)
I am certain this is Amarillo Frills type Bearded Iris. Schreiners Gardens sells them- theyre over 12 dollars each, which is a lot for an Iris.
My First Iris 2018
Bearded Iris, although very common where I spent quite a bit of my youth (Southern Calif) is my favorite flower. When the plant gets thick, you can propagate them by separating the rhizomes at their joints for lack of a better word. I am now in a different...
Caring for a Puppy With Parvo?
Parvovirus is TERRIBLE. That you cant afford a pet, I do not mean to sound cruel- you should take it to the local humane society shelter (the ones that dont euthanize). I have yet to see ONE dog survive parvo. They usually fade out within a matter of days. If...
Re-dyeing Hair?
You need to get color remover FIRST. You can get it at any beauty supply store. The thing is, dye works like this: one chemical lifts and separates the cuticle of the hair- each hair has scales on it that normally lie down, one single human hair is like a tube...
Fixed Male Cat Peeing on Bed?
First off, use 20 Mule Team Borax powder in the wash for all of your soft goods that are on that bed, including the mattress cover and maybe sprinkle some on the mattress, leave it on for a day or so, then vacuum it up. Borax breaks up the urine crystals, removing...
What Breed is My Dog?
Most definitely. The correct spelling though is German Shepherd - but its ok spelling is not such a big deal anyway. Take a look at any website that gives a Breed Standards for German Shepherd Dog.
Square Hillbilly Dishcloth
I would have dark colors in the center, or starting from one edge- go dark to light. As it is, it just looks as if it were stained.
Easy Liquid Laundry Detergent
There is an ingredient in commercial laundry detergents yours does NOT contain, and that is enzymatic cleansers. That is the ingredient that really removes organic issues like food, body oils and perspirations, blood, etc. Ive gone the homemade route and store...
Repairing a Kenmore Sewing Machine Model 158.13201?
Does the motor spin (whizzz) & seem to run or race but the needle just sits there? if so- the culprit is most likely a stuck feed dog. Theres a button on far right bottom of the machine that says FEED. Its more like a lever than a button- but if you press it...
Male Cat Getting Friendly With Another Male Cat?
I actually have a real answer to this! I did post yesterday with the same problem- & I found a great way to deal with this behavior. My male neuter was mounting, biting, and unfortunately- penetrating (barf!) the poor, darling male kitten- which I knew right...
Laundry Soap and Greywater Systems?
Theres a guy in our area who diverts all of his washing machine grey water to his garden, and he has the most lush, green and tropical garden probably in all of Arizona. He uses cheap laundry detergent, and I dont know if they use Clorox or not.
Inappropriate Cat Behavior?
You can take him to the vet if you want to, but it will be a total waste of money! Your vet will say If I had the cure for that, I would be a millionaire. I had a male neuter that did this to a toy stuffed rabbit. The plush rabbit was realistic looking, and...
Inappropriate Cat Behavior?
LOL! We have two Brokeback Mountain cats, we made jokes (pray the gay away, etc) but honestly we are both a bit concerned about the kitten (well, a young male cat, not tiny kitten- hes 6 months old) that is being abused by the male neuter rescue we got. Im...
