Anyone put two faucets on one sink to provide drinking water?
Comments (12)Scpailmetto, I will check into those small faucets sold for RO applications but investigate running an untreated water line to that faucet. Thanks! ubiquityman, Thanks for your input. We won't be getting a RO system. Our untreated water tastes great (one of the bottled water companies even uses our ground water for their product). We just want to run an untreated water line upstairs to have drinking water on the second floor. I do have a bit of a related question. Do we run softened or unsoftened water lines to our freezer and fridge. I assume the water is to make ice cubes and would not want bad tasting ice. On the other hand, I don't want to wear down the freezer line prematurely due to hard water? Carol...See MoreFYI-'Flavoring additive puts professional cooks at risk'
Comments (12)Eating anything is dangerous to your health... lol For what it's worth.... Easy Microwave Popcorn 1 plain brown paper sandwich bag (10 1/2 x 5 1/4 x 3 1/4 inches) 1/4 cup unpopped popcorn 1 tbsp canola oil Salt to taste Measure out the popcorn in 1/4 cup measuring cup. Pour the measured oil right over the corn in the cup. Dump into the bag and fold the top about 1/2 inch 2 or 3 times. Place in the microwave with the folded side up and microwave on high about 4 minutes. I usually use 2 teaspoons of oil and only use 1 teaspoon for any additional batches ( you have to use a new bag each time )... With my microwave it only takes about 2 minutes, you take it out as soon as it stops popping... I lay the bag on its side and place it on a paper towel.

Comments (19)I got Frank's test results back, his urine is perfect but his blood has a low white cell count. The inflammation could be just a minor bowel infection which can be treated with meds or cancer, she wanted to be honest about the spectrum of possibilities. I gave him about 100cc of fluid sub-subcutaneously today so he is hydrated. I made an appointment for him to go to the animal hospital Friday morning for an ultrasound, it is the only way to see exactly what is causing the inflammation. (Ragdolls are really fluffy and he has a very fuzzy belly, he will be bald on Friday! Poor guy.) He ate lots of chicken tonight, and lots of Whisker Lickin's (usually he only gets two or three, today he has had about 15) so I know he is interested in eating, just not canned cat food. His energy is a bit low but he still has his feisty play in him so we had a chat. I explained to him that I want him on this earth as long as he wants to be here, if he feels it is his time to go I will respect that too. I couldn't tell if he was looking at me like he was hearing me or that he thought I was crazy, but I hope the message got through. I love this little beast with all my heart. Please think happy, healthy thoughts and have your pets send good thoughts and prayers his way too. I am not a religious person, I pray to my loved ones that have passed on, so Frank has a lot of good people and energy coming his way. Thank you all for your support, I will post back Friday.

Comments (10)Grainlady's "Sassy Water" is fab (see below for post/recipe saved on my computer). Follow the proportions. When I've winged it, it hasn't been nearly as good. And do use water that starts out tasting good, or else purified. I use my favorite spring water. I've never added the tea bags, and generally can't get spearmint, so use regular garden mint. I made a LOT of "Sassy Water" last summer (Prevention Magazine Recipe from the Flat Belly Diet). It's supposed to be for weight loss (which I wasn't aware of when I had it at a friends home and asked for the recipe), but it WAS a good use for all those cucumbers and mint from the garden and a nice refreshing drink. You will find several versions of this recipe on-line. I also added a couple flavored tea bags to the mixture like Lemon Zinger, Wild Berry Zinger, Bigelo Perfect Peach Herb Tea or Celestial Seasonings Country Peach Passion to give it different flavors and colors. If you have a cutting mandolin, it's the quickest way to slice the cucumber and citrus. 8 1/2 cups water 1 teaspoon grated ginger 1 medium cucumber, sliced thin 1 medium lemon, sliced thin 12 leaves spearmint (any mint will work) Directions: 1 Mix all ingredients together in a pitcher. 2 Refrigerate overnight. 3 Strain water. -Grainlady...See MoreBunny
