The BRAT diet: Bananas, Rice cereal (cream of wheat works well, too), Applesauce, Toast (dry). It's used for kids, but it does help. Tums also works if it's from indigestion, not just being under the weather.

My husband and I are considering buying a house. We looked at one we liked yesterday. The realtor told us that the previous owner's cat had litterbox issues and had gone on the old carpet. Apparently she replaced the carpet and dealt with the floor underneath. Should we be worried that our...

I wouldn't even try that with my one cat. She'd get revenge somehow. . .

Me, too. Potato salad, sausage, coffee, mayonnaise to name a few. I still don't like olives, lima beans or cottage cheese.

Bad calls, true, but any team worthy of a championship will overcome that and win anyway. Seattle just didn't have it this year. Take away all the bad calls and Pittsburgh still would have won. They won by 11, take away the touchdown and extra point, and they would have won by 4. As someone...

Cindy, I have to agree. I thought the idea was great, the beginning kept me interested, but she could have done it in about 200 fewer pages. Still, I liked it, I just didn't love it.

So, have you ever been to Pittsburgh? I think you need to see it before making a judgment about its beauty or lack of it. I think it's a great city with a lot to do. Western PA is very nice, lots of mountains and trees. At least it doesn't rain all the time here. I am very happy for the...

I read Looking for God in Harry Potter by John Granger, very interesting. He also has a website, but I can't remember what it's called, maybe hogwartsprofessor.com or something like that.

One of my cats caught, killed, and partially ate a mouse about a year ago. DH heard her chasing it in the middle of the night, I found the head the next morning. Ewww!

English and Spanish. I use Spanish almost daily, I am an English as a Second Language teacher, and all my students are native Spanish speakers. Between them and their families, I get lots of practice. I can also make sense of some written French and Italian, I pick out the words that are...

Loved Narnia, both the story and the effects. Aslan was breathtaking, and what brilliance to get Liam Neeson to be the voice, such a great voice. I thought the kids were really good, and Tilda Swinton was so evil as the Witch. Do you think they'll make the other books in the series into...

From DH: A juicer, beautiful silver heart locket with 3 small diamonds, gold cross with diamonds (he has never been able to afford to buy me real jewelry before, so he went a little crazy ) and Harry Potter Goblet of Fire game for my computer. It's very addicting. From parents: sweater...

Did you hear that Eragon is being made into a movie? I haven't read it yet, but several of my fellow teachers have. I also read Sisterhood for something light, and really liked it. Currently, I am reading Jan Karon's last Mitford novel and The Historian. I'm about 1/4 through The Historian...

It didn't work for me, either.

For me, it was the action in contrast with the relationships.I love movies that take me away from the real world for awhile. Don't get me wrong, I love realistic, dramatic movies, too. The only movies I don't see are the based on true events horror flicks, like Wolf Creek. I can't help but...

The fx are pretty impressive, but the relationship between Ann and Kong is also well done. The acting in general is pretty good, and the focus is more on the relationships between the characters, IMO. The action sequences on the island are incredible, but not the heart of the movie.

Hope everyone enjoys the holidays. http://www.powerpres.com/xmascard03.html

Has anyone else seen it? DH and I went with some friends on Friday. It was incredible. to Peter Jackson. Loved it, I even cried although I knew how it would end (having seen the earlier versions).

My girl, Molly, loves to play fetch. She has a play mouse that she brings to me or my DH, then she waits for us to throw it. One night, she kept at it for an hour. Another time, it was 4 in the morning. And like a good kitty mommy, I played for a few minutes. The only drawback is that cats...
