spoken from experience I recently moved from a 100 year old house in a 100 year old neighborhood...mice and rats were a constant problem. #1 go to a farm supply store...tell the guy you have a rodent problem and he'll sell you a bucket of green blocks. I forget the name but farmers use them in...

did that stuff really work? My mother always bought Snowy powdered bleach..no longer in production I guess. I could never tell any difference

I've taken my morning coffee in the shower more than once; in fact I did this morning. Why not a beer?

Bud From North Little Rock Check Edwards Food Giant on Camp Robinson Rd., North Little Rock. I was in there buying frozen peaches for a Thanksgiving Cobbler few weeks back. Frozen coconut is beside the frozen fruit. Didn't think it was made anymore but I mostly shop the Kroger or Wal Mart these...

I saw a post with a pic of a Maytag dryer; the words Heavy Duty were on the machine. Made me remember my mother always insisted her washer and dryer were labeled as "Heavy Duty". Did that really make a difference or was it just a marketing tool?

I thought deep wells were cool My grandmother and all my aunts had them. But every time I'd peek under the lid it was always the same thing; either green beans or turnip greens....seriously!!!..lol

beauty for sure I was a coffee pot collector for years. Down sized earlier this year and gave all but 3 favorites away. I do not think that pot is immersible. Have you tried just a regular cord? You can still find them at the mom and pop hardware stores.

Bake them in the oven with a can of beef broth. Of course add some salt, pepper and onion. I love them cooked like that, taste very similar to baking them with a pot roast. I never scrap/peel them...that's were all the vitamins are.

Wow To each his own I guess

Moth Balls I moved about 6 months ago from a 100 year old house in a 100 year old neighborhood. Oak trees were every where. I had the same problem with all my potted plants along with them building nest in my attic and rooting up my flower beds. Cute as they may be, they are destructive little...

Chris: Freezing tomatoes It's pretty simple. Dip the tomatoes in boiling water so the jacket will peel off. Cut them into chunk size, drop in a freezer zip baggie and toss in the freezer. I use a pint mason jar for the first couple bags so I can eyeball what makes a glass jar pint. Matt: Sorry...

It's becomming a lost art I "put-up" a lug of tomatoes, usually green beans and a few purple hull peas every summer. We have a chest freezer and there's really no need to can anything. A friend taught me a few years ago to freeze tomatoes; which I've done and for cooking they are just a good as...

rub the spot with a good douse of Ultra Dawn...roll up let set for a few minutes, wash in hot water. I'm married to a truck driver that not only gets dirty but also enjoys wearing his greasy hamburgers and other truck stop fare. If it's really bad I also douse some household ammonia on the...

Guess I'm confussed I was at Universal Studio in March 1995; the tour guide took us by the Golden Girls house and their neighbor ( don't remember the name but they had the dog named Dyfus). The house was only a front held up by 2x4's as was the next door neighbors.

thanks everyone!! Thank you!! We use the clumping litter; the boys have no claws (or balls for that matter) and I think the litter gets hung up in their pads. I've been using the electric broom in between routine floor/rug/carpet care. I've ordered the litter box matt from Chewy's this morning...

Does anyone have any helpful tips on dealing with cat litter being tracked everywhere. I bought a home back in February with a friend. He has 2 cats that are adorable, I love them and they love me; so that's certainly not an issue. The issue is, they track litter all over the house. It's...

Over the course of the past 3 years I have experienced several life changes. Painful then, but all worth it today. I’m moving into a new home which means cleaning out while packing. I got these about 35 years ago. I suspected they probably came as an accessory to a stove/range. I noticed in the...

All for only $375.00 This was posted on Man Swap/Facebook for sale site. I know people are falling all over themselves to fetch this 1976 ACM Hornet. It don't run, only needs minor repair. Well..at least he's not saying he hasn't tried to start it since it came up from the basement or ran last...

Cookie jar Ralph: I live across the river from you!!..I understand the OCD thing!! I have nothing on my counters except a cookie jar. All small appliances go either in the pantry or in the cabinet. Coffee pot comes out at night, used the next morning and goes back to it's hiding place before I...

I love em!! I shop Amazon quite a bit. I use them for personal purchasing as well as items needed to operate my office. What I like best; since my children and grandchildren are now 17 hours away on the east coast, I can shop and have the items shipped to their home at no extra cost. For...
