How do you Store your Rings?
Comments (15)I also keep mine in Ziplock bags. I tried to string them up like Weedlady, but I've had more than a few times where the string slipped out of my hand when I was getting bands and all the bands went crashing to the ground in a huge, loud mess. Fun times! Now I have my "processing bands" and my "gifting bands". My gifting bands are new/newer which get screwed onto jars that I'm giving away. My processing bands have a little bit of rust or dings and eventually get thrown away after they get too hard to screw onto jars for processing or are too ugly....See MoreLooking for Rubber Bed Garters
Comments (21)I still have a set of these, and they are indeed awesome. I stopped using fitted sheets altogether years ago and just use two top sheets, so the garters are critical. The only problem is that gremlins keep stealing the fasteners, sometimes for months at a time. Then one day the missing one appears again, even though I have scoured the base of the mattress many times. (I am a firm believer in gremlins because there's just no other explanation.) If something really comparable ever shows up again I will buy at least 2 more sets! PS: I can't imagine using those straps that go clear under the mattress and cross in an X on a waterbed. You'd have to empty the mattress to install them! It's ridiculous that they are advertised as being "perfect" for waterbeds....See MoreRemedial mixing bowl questions (storing & selecting)
Comments (13)I have my mother's set of Volrath stainless mixing bowls from the 50s and I LOVE them. They are similar to the Sur La Table set, but a slightly broader base and straight sides. The are lightweight and easily go in the dishwasher. I think you would be very happy with something similar. Another plus is they can be used in a saucepan for a double boiler and also can go in the oven as it is preheating to melt butter. I have lots (and lots) of bowls but the stainless are the ones I use the most....See MoreClever Pet Names?
Comments (103)We had a wonderful mutt we named Woodstock Nation. When a kitten adopted us, our 4 yo dtr named her Dorothy. I have no idea why. We had her for many years. The most beautiful cat we ever had was very tiny with the longest, softest, all black fur you can imagine. Her name was Malificent Underwood. Beautiful as she was, she didn't like to be bothered with any one but our baby boy. (We got them at the same time.) As soon as could walk he carried that cat around all day long, and she slept with him. We called her Cat. I love this old happy thread....See Morebossyvossy
