Comments (24)Glad you guys got a laugh out of our little gizmo. I'd never trust a group of people who didn't enjoy seeing egg mucus come out of someone's nose. I asked my husband, and he said he bought it at a local gift shop that no longer exists, but I just Googled it and found them for sale at lots of places. The one that looks like mine is tastefully named Boris Booger Boy. There's a link to an eBay seller below, but if you don't do eBay, there are plenty of other places to buy these. I also found another one called Peter Petrie, but he's not picking his nose, and there's no shiny glaze, so I think that mine is the superior model. Standards must be upheld, after all. ;o) Here is a link that might be useful: Buy your own Booger Boy!...See MoreChalaza, cord thingie in eggs
Comments (77)I like seeing old threads pop up. Odd why and who, but like Annie says, google searching brings in 'hit and runs'...sorry some old friends have moved on and no longer here for those of you missing them, : ( I find it hilarious to be 'icked' by some food items. I watched a youtube food travel person the other day eating throughout villages in Laos. One delightful dish shared by the entire table was fresh duck blood that had some coagulating blobby bits. I had to shut the computer and go find a kitchen project then switched to my seed starting room downstairs. Could not get that 'ick' out of my head. Another delight was a slice of honeycomb, big 4x6 inches, with the larva still inside. Grilled and wrapped in some toasty flatbread. All smiles leaving the street stall and mentioned the beeswax stuck in his teeth. I always look at the egg when I crack it into a bowl. Those 'guide wires' are a bit off-putting and the occasional blood spot. My issue is the spelling vs pronunciation. Like wOOs-ter-sher. I can't spell it and when I see it spelled correctly I can't say it. Yolk, yolk Who's there. Chalazae (kuh-LAY-zee) Chalazae who? We're to chalazae to hold the yolk in place....See MoreLittle kitchen tricks
Comments (96)arkansas_girl, I don't recall exactly where I got the slide out cutting board/shelf but I'm sure it was one of the discount stores. Probably Kmart considering the time frame in which I got it. But wait a second, unless I ordered it from somewhere??? No I think I bought it in a store. I looked for some a year or two ago for a gift but didn't see them. I don't even know what you'd actually call it either. I'll try to take a picture of it, maybe someone else would know the "technical" name. And yes mustangs, I have a jarpop. I bought it at the grocery store for about $3 as I recall. I gave some as gifts after trying it out. It hangs on the frig along with my other gadgets like the strap wrench, putty knife, instant read thermometer and what not. Steamed TV dinners, huh? Hmmm. No, I think I'll have to pass! Back to tricks... Freezer bags make great ice packs. Fill with water, remove most air, freeze flat and as they melt they keep things from getting wet. A block of ice lasts quite a while too. I use them at summertime picnics and don't care if they get lost or damaged. An envelope or pouch set up by the door where you bring in mail (for me, it's the kitchen) is a great spot to stuff things you'll need for income taxes. As soon as it comes in, put it in the envelope and you know where everything is come tax prep time. I bought a fabric one that looks a little nicer than a plain envelope. Now I just have to put it up! I have a steel back door (firewall requirement by code for attached garage) so a magnet clip is perfect for holding outgoing letters and other things I need to remember. I put a little shelf on there to put gloves, hold some change, car keys, extra garage door opener (that I use when I'm blowing snow or mowing grass, or blowing grass and mowing snow...)...See MoreObservation on food preferences
Comments (89)I also like sardines and crackers, they were always "camping food" and so they have good memories for me. Plus, I like fish and seafood, so there's that. Olychick, I meant to say that I have actually changed the way I install the toilet paper roll. At home it was always "over", and so I did that for years. Then we had a cat that would sit on the lid of the toilet and "spin" the roll with both front feet and watch it unroll. Being unable to convince my girls to just close the darned door, I switched to the "under" method of installing toilet paper and then when the cat spun that roll it just went around and around and did not unroll. So, I changed it, but I changed it for a reason. Now I automatically install it "under" and Elery tells me it's wrong. I told him that he never owned my particular cat, LOL. Annie...See Morebbstx
