Looking at the code it seems the link is coded as a form button instead of a hyperlink. That's why there's no right click or no new tab/window.

Biwako - I went to options and changed it to default (I had had it set for colors to correlate with domain - and it used to work like that - but I thought I'll try anything). Again - it worked at first - and then the color goes away (it's odd - it's not just when I close a tab or open a new one that it's white - the same tab that was blue before - now is white - no colors now at all). I cannot imagine what add-on might conflict. It's a daunting task to figure out which one. I've been so wild about the FF add-ons - that I have a ton of them. I don't believe any of them were new (oh - except for extensions to try and capture hulu streaming videos). I'll try the safemode and see if colorful tabs works there. If it does, I'm willing to try eliminating those last couple of video capture extensions. If that doesn't work - I'm in for a big, long process of elimination. I don't have any color - or the other extensions that were identified as being incompatible with Colorful Tabs. But something else has gone awry - my all-in-one-sidebar doesn't work consistently either. I guess something I added or updated is causing a problem. I'll report back if I figure it out. Thanks. Lynn.

I can go into the Firefox preferences, under the Content tab, go to the 5th "button" down on the right and change the color to a background color I personally find more soothing (and change font style and size, too, in the previous window), and UNCHECK the box that says "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above." The problem is that it applies my choices to ALL my open browser pages...not just GW. If I could just affect GW and move on like normal, that would be great. I could also minimize my window until the white outside the vertical lines disappears and stare at my Lilly wallpaper. Or I could open up two windows side-by-side and multitask through GW!! Think of the possibilities, GW...double the ad play!!!!! No, not on my screen(s), my adblocker still works...for now. It's like certain HD TV shows that don't automatically rescale and fit the screen. You get those black bars outside the picture. I rather like the crisp, clean look, just PLEASE continue the top banner's grass green (or some other color) all the way down to the brown bottom banner to tone down that white! Thanks!

loves2cook - I would LOVE to be able to include fish in our diet but unfortunately DS1 has anaphylactic food allergies to scaly/fin fish - thankfully seafood/shellfish is fine so we eat plenty of that. He also has tree nut allergies (almonds, walnuts, pecans, etc) so we have to steer clear of those which is a bummer since the rest of us love them and they are a great source of protein. I can honestly say that his food allergies are a BIG reason as to why I cook the way I do - the only way to be sure is to make it myself! Don't you just LOVE it when your kids love your food better than what they get elsewhere (restaurants/friends'/camp)? My kids just groan if I suggest going out to eat (as in, give mom a break once in a while) BUT I secretly couldn't be happier. Once last winter the older boys wanted to surprise DS3 with a birthday cake that they made - they wanted to make a "hockey rink" cake and despite my offer to give them a simple 9x13 chocolate sheet cake w/ white buttercream frosting recipe to follow, they insisted on using a mix....although it turned out cute and their brother was touched, we all got migraines and stomach cramps that night...can you say preservatives? Honestly, I can't remember the last time we've had a box mix of anything and clearly our bodies didn't appreciate it. How to get started..hhmm...I guess I'd just find an hour or so where you can focus on your week ahead, make a list of what's realistic for each dinner (big multi-course, quick and easy, something from the grill, all-day cooker, etc) based on everyone's schedule each night, then gather your favorite cookbooks (DH has cholesterol issues so I'm a huge Cooking Light and Cuisine at Home fan) and/or websites (like Epicurious - love that site!!). Then, pick something from different food familes (I usually have one vegetarian meal, one pasta-based, one or two poultry, one pork, one lean beef, one seafood, etc) and make a list of the recipe titles and what page/book they're on (or print them off the web) - then add to that list some sides for each main dish (I keep these fairly simple, loads of fresh produce, and very little, if any, starches). Once you've figured out what to make for the week, then starting with each recipe, just jot down what ingredients you need until you're done w/ the week of meals. I am an order and control freak by nature so I then rewrite this list in the order of where everything is in the grocery store ;P) I throw all my meat in the freezer when I get home and just take it out the night before or morning of that I'm going to use it. I will occasionally but not often rely on frozen veggies but most of the time what I buy stays fresh for the week (although I will admit to using up my produce according to what's going to spoil quickest) and worst case, a mid to late week trip to the store for some more produce is pretty easy to manage. That's pretty much it - I'm sure once you get started, you'll find that it's easier than it sounds and it makes your life so much better! I love to bake too so that's a big family affair on the weekends w/ all my boys helping out. We usually over-do it so that we have plenty for them to take to school as snacks and for us to enjoy all week in the evenings. Also, every other Saturday in the fall and winter we make home made soups (CL has a Roasted Chicken Noodle that is TO DIE FOR!!!) and a quick cup of soup during the week can be a great way to tide them over until dinner after games/practices. Okay, I've totally taken over Caroline's thread so I'll stop now but I hope you, loves2cook, feel like trying out some mealplanning for your busy weeks when summer's over!
