Gas! The only way to cook. Ideally, I want a dual fuel stove...gas cooktop and electric/convection double oven. What I'll probably get is a gas range. What I have is a wounded electric range. If I set the oven to 410 degrees, the oven will, eventually, heat up to 350. It takes it about 30 minutes to reach this temp. Three of the four burners work. Still, I'm not cooking over an open buffalo-chip fire to feed six children, so I'm not complaining!

I would stash it and stare at it for a few days, but would probably go have a pedicure. My feet are really needing attention, and the older I get the further my feet get from my face....can't do a good job myself anymore. The rest I would keep in hiding for a special occasion. Trin

Nope - Primer Class ... started at Easter, went to First Class in that fall. The Jr. and Sr. each of 2nd, 3rd & 4th ... ... for eight classes in all. One-room rural school, less than half mile walk from home - Miss Jean Abbott, a nice lady, was the teacher throughout. Many rural schools scattered around the country - no school buses then. Fast-learner senior kids helped the junior kids with their work - partly to keep them out of mischief, possibly? How would you like to manage eight groups at the same time in one room? When our children were in elementary school, they started this wonderful new concept - four classes in one room, separated by dividers, with a teacher for each. I said that it smelled a lot similar to parts of the old one-room school, to me. ole joyful P.S. Since the "definately" that I see around here so frequently is definitely not part of my vocabulary, is that the modern way of spelling ... with our way being sort of dinosaurish? o j

Just be a guest. I don't like all the planning and work with entertaining, plus all the cleanup afterwards. LOL Clare

I'm with grammahony on this one. Eating out, and we do it every day. Sunday we did it for lunch and for supper. I know it's not cheap to cook at home, but just thinking about all those tips we leave. YIKES!

plants, but that means, this time of the year I am pretty safe. To cold to plant outside... and I am not at all in to indoor plants.

OK, Moni beat me to it! I buy way too many plants in the spring and then wonder where to put them!

Food--you should see my pantry and freezers! Weird thing is when I want to make a new recipe, nine times out of ten I'll be missing an ingredient or two. How can that happen?

Lately it's been scrapbook supplies, but I'm about caught up with that so now I'll confess to spending too much on gardening stuff including, flowers, tools and garden junk.

Ahem....look at my username. My grandkids gave me that name years ago because of my love for gadgets. I've greatly curbed the buying though.....

Kitchen items...cookware, dinnerware, flatware, table linens, to name a few. Tonight after work, DH and I are going to Marshall's to pick up my Le Creuset wide Dutch oven that's on layaway ;o)

We spend the most on vacations (4-5 a year), which includes at least 2 cruises yearly.

We're still working (hard!) and not yet retired but are both healthy, so now is the time to do it! No regrets either!

Enjoy!

We spend way too much money on vacations and eating in restaurants. We both work full time in demanding jobs, so when we get home we're both too tired to cook most of the time. We go out to lunch every work day, too. We take a lot of vacations because we love to "get away from it all" and relax. Hawaii twice yearly and then lots of places here on the mainland.

We both buy a ton of books, as we both love to read.

And I buy way too much yarn!
