white westinghouse I'm a little embarassed to admitt this..but in 1999 when I divorced and my son and I moved out on our own the last thing I thought I needed was a toaster. It seemed like every day my son was either wanting toast or a poptart. Money was very tight so on payday I went to K-Mart...

late christmas dinner I've never been a big christmas person and to be honest was always depressed on Christmas Day..but about 8 years ago it occured to me that I had several friends that either had no place to go on Christmas or family that they were estranged from. So I started having a late...

1924 craftsman Closets???? what's that??? my house was built in 1924 with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath.. one in each bedroom. They are very small in comparision (not big enough to whip a cat in according to my cousin) to modern construction. I've been told that back in the day people didn't have many...

memories for sure My parents married in 1957 and all the furniture and appliances came from Hall Furniture Co. in Nashville Tn. After we moved to Little Rock in 63 the appliances started breaking down and my mother went crazy over Coppertone from Sears..and I mean Coppertone everything. We even...

For what it's worth ..I use a 25k btu in the front of the house and a small unit in the bedroom. I think the big boy is a Frid and the small one is a GE. I replaced both in 2010. The big unit just quit after only 8 years of service. I called several repair companies and was finially told. "you...

I love my PC I use mine at least once a week..I have a universal. I've cooked dried beans,and like to pressure greens. I've never done very well with roast..they seem to have a funky texture. I've always wanted to try pressure fried chicken..I did once several years ago but it was...

Thank you!! Thanks everyone!!!! They just bought a house 1.5 miles from my drivway to there's. I'll tell my daughter in law the options and let her decide. I know over the years we've had post about how these youngesters don't have good concepts on how to keep house....this girl is Mrs. OCD...

solution Until the makers of pods give them a make over...how about basic parental responsibility. Either stop buying if there are small children in the home or store them out of reach of little ones. Of course I sound like my grand mother, but "back in my day" when my children were little all...

hated it!! We had a side opening washer at some point when I was a teenager...maybe a KM or WP..all I remember was it was brown or copper tone as my mother called it. I hated the thing because I was always scraping the back of my hand or kunckles on the edge of the lid; also it seemed to be in...

bones We lived in an early 1950's ranch style house for a few years when I was growing up. The kitchen was all in pink and had the GE wall refrigerator, wall oven and stove top. I remember my mother putting chicken and steak bones in the disposer..it took a few minutes for them to be ground up...

thanks Ok...thanks for explaining how the Thor worked. I just assumed the insert tub/basket had holes in it and the dishwasher filled with water and acted as the outer tub. I guess for the time period it was the real deal. I was on a very tight budget when my son was a baby and I had to use...

I always enjoy the pod...in fact it's part of my morning routine before starting work. I've seen today's pod before and I was wondering if anyone beside me is a little grossed out by a machine that washes dirty clothes and dishes? I'm probably over thinking this but I just can't seem to get past...
