The way people dress today
Comments (25)I don't mind casual at all--not even wrinkled--as long as it's clean. Don't care for the 'here are my boobs, take a good look' style common today. But interesting you should post this. I was just thinking this weekend about the difference in clothing styles from when I grew up. When I was a teen, your bra was NEVER supposed to show--ever. Not bra straps peeking out. So I'm really torn when you see gals wearing spaghetti strap tops with their bra straps visible--glad they're wearing a bra, but I don't want to see it. And does anyone remember a time when, if you were wearing 2 items (2 shirts, a shirt and a jacket, etc--the inside one was NEVER supposed to be longer than the outer one? It looks SO sloppy to me, the current trend to wear a shorter outer top over a longer inner one--looks like something is hanging out that shouldn't be (is the visual here making sense?). Oh, well, guess we're showing our age. Will add--we went to dinner at a restaurant last night. There were people there who were very dressed up, many were casual (we were)--didn't bother me a bit. I really think clothes should be worn for comfort, and in all honesty? I thought the casual people looked much more comfortable than the dressed-up ones....See Moreyour best ways to dress up cheap cuts of meat...
Comments (10)Ooh, one of my friends collects cookbooks from the 1920s-1940s, which are chock-full of meat-extending recipes. Not only do they offer ideas for using less meat in each meal, but they deal with cuts of meat that today we would consider unsavory: tongue, kidney, brain, heart -- and types of meat most folks don't eat these days: elk, squirrel, possum. I kid you not. There were possum recipes. This particular publication was put out by the USDA. Wish I could dredge up the book from my friend, but he's across the country. It had hundreds of recipes. If all else fails, maybe your grandmother has kept cookbooks from that era, and would be willing to let you root through them. Depression-era cookbooks are a treasure trove for that kind of information. Also for "household tips & tricks" like how to get ring-around-the-collar out without using special preparations like Shout, making your own lemon oil furniture polish, stuff like that. I love reading them....See MoreBest way to dress wires in meter cabinet?
Comments (2)Hey Petey_racer thanks for the reply. Did find a diagram on POCO guide it was buried on page 91 of 93. It matches the "knuckle buster" bend I was nervous about (load side right lug). For the record I think residential and the the industrial/factory electrical fields are two different animals. Alot of people assume because I spend my days running NEMA 12 wireways and wiring control panels with hundreds of low voltage cables that I'm also an fully capable of wiring a new home. My sister just built a new home and I had a friend that works on the work residential side of my company wire her house and I couldn't believe the code requirements and the amount of Romex he ended up using. Took one look at realized I'm not even gonna try that game. I grabbed a 40' of nema 1 lay in wireway we tore out at work and am running from my panel across my basement and tapping off it with pipe to a 6x6 jbox in each closet and I'll pick up my circuits from there. FYI I think can get 30 current carrying conductors in a wireway....See MoreOther Ways to use Thousand Island Dressing
Comments (11)I never eat regular thousand island dressing because I do not like sweet pickles, and so I make a version with dill or sour pickles, and I find that dressing to be more versatile. Also, I use chili sauce (without tomato) instead of ketchup. It ends up being somewhat similar to Russian dressing, which is similar to what I make for Crab Louis....See MoreAnnie Deighnaugh
