Information on Vintage Glass Measuring Cup?
I second Anchor Hocking. (Image is upside down.) Just a tip for those that actually USE the vintage glass measuring cups: They probably are not tempered like modern ones. Sadly, mine shattered when I set a cold liquid filled one into a sink of hot water. It...

Ooh, I saw this on here just the other day! http://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/cacti-succulents/pencil-cactus/care-pencil-cactus.htm

Not %100, but I think a type of Pilea, Aluminum Plant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilea_cadierei
What Is this House Plant? (Ficus)
Not positive, but looks like a cutting of a ficus. Cuttings (of various plants) are often used as filler in arrangements, therefore dont have the proper root systems in place. Give it time perhaps? Look up ficus.
What is This Houseplant? (Schefflera)
Umbrella plant (a.k.a. Schefflera). Doesnt need direct light; just bright indirect. http://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/schefflera/schefflera-plant-care.htm
Identifying a Houseplant?
The first is a corn plant, or dracaena; the second diffembachia (sp.?). Not sure of the care though--I have a brown thumb! :)
Are These Tomato Plants?
Looks like Lily of the Valley dying off going into Fall. If the browning greenery is about eight or twelve inches in height and the berries about the size of a marble, do not eat them. It is a ground cover that will emerge in Spring producing fragrant, small...
Living Room Paint Color Advice?
Something like an ice-blue. Work that colors various shades in as accents around the room too. And maybe tiny bits of orange for a color scheme of taupe/brown, ice blue, white/cream, orange. Or, leave out the orange if thats not for you.
Kitten Not Using Litter Box?
Im no expert in this area, but the thought that comes to mind is: Change what the box is filled with, i.e. use shredded newspaper; sand; change brand/type of litter. Hope you find success!
Discontinued Target Crib Bedding?
Call the 1-800 number. It could be that there isnt enough to stock the website, but they may still have some available by phone. (Happened to me on another website.) Hope it works for you!
Hoover Carpet Cleaner Not Spraying?
I dont know what type of rug cleaner my sister had, but I helped her. The attachment end needed to be primed. I think I just held my finger along the opening or something like that. It was a couple years ago, so I dont quite remember, but it was in the manual...
Tiny Holes in T-shirts?
That same question appears on here occasionally, and I get them too. I believe its from over stuffing the drawer: Upon closing the drawer, if a shirt catches between the drawer and the dresser frame, it probably causes unseen damage to the fabric that doesnt...
Finding Assistance With Home Repairs?
I dont know if you belong to church, but perhaps it could help: They must have a plumber, right?
Cause of Tiny Holes in T-shirts?
I think mine happen when I cram shirts into a too-full dresser drawer. The fabric catches between the drawer and dresser which, I believe, causes damage then becomes apparent after stress on the fabric from future washings. I fold my shirts in half, then in...
Curved Precision Needles?
Vintage sewing machine needles. http://www.ebay.com/itm/250-Production-Special-Precision-Sewing-Needles-Made-W-Germany-MUVA-90-curved/131387274420?_trksid=p2047675.c100011.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140602152332%26meid...
Treating Cat's Crusty Eye and Chin?
I dont think the two are related (chin/eye). I agree with the previous poster about the chin. One of my cats similarly developed a wink and was found to have an eyelash that turned inward irritating the eye. Surgery corrected it. May not be the same for your...
Removing Vicks Stains on Clothing?
I think youll need a degreaser for the oily stain: Awesome Orange; Simple Green (found in automotive supply, yet many uses); even dish soap, etc.
Sharing Living Expenses With Boyfriend?
While reading your entry, it totally gave me the creeps with all the red flags. I fully agree with redhatterb, and add my own opinion. First, he doesnt want you to work. That leaves you without your own money leaving you totally dependent on him. Not a good...
Homecoming Decorating Idea?
I havent totally thought out the ideas, but maybe you could add to them by brainstorming. 1. Attach glowsticks around the doorway covering them with something (dont know what yet) and diffusing the light allowing the color(s) to glow through. Or, 2. Attach...
Cause of Little Round Holes in Clothing?
I get them from cramming clothes into a drawer. Stuffing the drawer makes items catch between the drawer and cabinet causing a small hole or cut in the fabric. Sometimes the hole doesnt become apparent until after laundering. And I still do it. When will I...
Cat Has Bad Breath?
Take her to a vet: Given her age, she probably has very bad teeth which not only cause the odor, but great discomfort too.
Cats Have Stopped Eating Dry Food?
Given their ages, they may have dental problems that cause them discomfort when chewing hard, dry food. Consider switching to a softer food, and see a vet.
Tiny Holes In Clothing?
I just read my own suggestion to this from 2 1/2 years ago: I replied that I thought the holes came from over stuffing drawers. (Creates a small hole that may not show until laundering when the agitation further stresses the fabric revealing the hole.) Have...
Candy (Dog)
She looks like the dark version of my light-colored, 5 year-old dog, Nyla! Whenever people say that shes pretty, I always reply Shes not, but she is pretty darn cute! I like your beauty-challenged better! lol And I wholly agree with Shadow0366s comments.
Storing Seasonal Vinyl Window Clings?
Ive been storing mine for about 7 years wrapped around an empty paper towel tube secured by a rubber band. (In an attic thats cold in the winter and hot in the summer!)
Tire Marks on Linoleum Floor?
Buff with toothpaste (regular, not gel) on a rag, or rub with a tennis ball (really).
Maxx and Charlie (Cats)
Gosh! I just found this pic. of your cats and they look so much like one I had! Ive had many cats over the years (all great in their own way), but he had an extra-special place in my heart. Purrfect was his name and very appropriate. Glad I stumbled across...
