Today I spent my first day in the house – no we haven't moved in, that's sure to hit Twitter first – organizing the architectural plans for most of the homes in our neighborhood and searching for the plans for the Hatcher House. The history lessons have been delightful. Joseph Durkee, who owned much of the land in the neighborhood, subdivided his holdings into lots and decided who could buy and what they could build. A neighbor mentioned he now has possession of all the plans from the Durkee family, and offered to let me look through for my house, then I offered to organize the rest by address.
Original lots here were generally sold for at least $4,000 in the mid 50's. Mr. Durkee wrote a letter to the bank advising that one proposed buyer should not have been approved for a mortgage because he seemed to lack sufficient income – the mortgage was for $19,500 and the buyer only made $6,600 per year as a bank clerk. A number of local architects and builders were involved in designing and building the homes, and almost all were designed as one level homes with an understated appearance. A few original owners are still in the neighborhood, as well as many descendants of the original families. Tracking the homes by the year built, I saw that many lots sat for a while before homes were built. I could imagine watching the houses pop up initially in the mid 50's, then a smattering in the late 60's and early 70's, with a few stragglers in the 80's. No trees clear cut or widespread construction, just organic growth over the years.
After opening the last bag and working my way through half of it without finding our plans, I was becoming disheartened. But this story shall have a happy ending – curled up modestly with the few remaining sets was an entire permit plan set with the name "Hatcher" scrawled across the outer edge.
As to our news: We have wood flooring on our top floor! We have wood flooring in our dining room and kitchen! We have tile in the second bathroom! We have a refrigerator and oven and dishwasher and induction cooktop…to install! We have kitchen cabinets…to assemble! Must be time to return to the present.

Using a plastic bag while grocery shopping at NTUC and shredding used scraps of paper at work is part of a daily routine for most of us. Especially with the added convenience of refuse bins in our homes, throwing away unused objects seems to be second nature. But have you ever pondered upon how much trash do you toss away in a day? Even though it's been drilled in our heads that we should recycle our trash, truth be told, we are simply lazy.
According to Zero Waste Singapore, the amount of waste disposed of increased about 600%, from 0.5 million tonnes in 1970 to 3 million tonnes in 2013.
Each person disposed about 0.87 kg of domestic waste per day in 2013.
That's more than 300kg of trash generated a year!
The top 3 waste types include:
1. Plastics (26%)
2. Food Waste (23%)
3. Paper/Cardboard (19%)
Why should we be concerned about trash?
When trash is disposed, it:
– ends up in an incinerator
– burnt to be converted to other forms of energy
– or in a landfill taking up space
This pollutes and contaminates the environment. In fact, there's a correlation between landfill & global warming. Most of the gas released in landfills consist of methane, which is 20 to 25 times more powerful in trapping heat as compared to carbon dioxide. So if you always complain about how hot Singapore is, think about how you've been contributing to it all this while!
So what is Zero Waste Movement all about?
The Zero Waste Movement is a way of living to minimise the discard of materials. Zero Waste maximises recycling, minimises waste and reduces overall consumption. This ensures that products are either reused, repaired, or recycled. All in all, it helps to save the environment!
How can you start participating in the Zero Waste Movement?
Other than recycling, you can opt to reuse items to reduce waste. Here are 5 simple handmade DIY ideas to repurpose your old items. What's more, you can sell these items for some extra cash on the Thinges app 🙂 Will you refuse to refuse today?
5. Side Tables
Repurpose your old magazines. Best thing – you don't need any other materials!
1. Stack your magazines on top of each other.
2. Place whatever objects you want on the top. Like a lamp, or even to hold your mug.
4. Newspaper Pots
If you have green fingers and no idea on what to do with stacks of old newspaper other than selling them to the Karung Guni man, this project is for you!
1. Tear a single sheet of newspaper in half and fold into a third.
2. Wrap newspaper around the empty can. Leave about a quarter inch from the top of the can unwrapped.
3. Fold bottom edge in, and secure with tape.
4. Slip off newspaper from can and you're ready to use these newspaper pots.
3. Enhanced Leaves
Looking for a unique piece of decor in your room or for an event? Why not consider using elements that can be found in nature instead of purchasing a brand-new item? All you need are fresh leaves, newspaper, crayons and scissors to recreate Autumn in the tropics.
1. Place leaves on a flat, dry surface.
2. Cover leaf with a piece of newspaper
3. Rub crayons gently over leaf.
2. DIY Plastic Bracelets
Innova Crafts shares about how to make colourful bracelets from recycled plastic bottles. It's easy, fast to make, plus it makes for a great customisable gift! All you need is a plastic bottle, tape, scissors, iron and nail polish or acrylic paint.
1. Tape the bottle around twice.
2. Cut out the portion being marked by the tape to get a rim of plastic.
3. Switch on the iron. Remove steam and put medium temperature. Heat the plastic rim at the top and bottom.
4. After it cools down for approximately 1 minute, use nail polish / acrylic paint to colour the bracelet.
1. Plastic Bag Coasters
A group of Singaporean schoolgirls share about various ways to reuse plastic carriers. Deeply concerned about the environment, they hope to influence consumers to think twice before disposing plastic bags after only using them once.
1. Take 3 plastic bags of similar size. Cut off the handles and bottom of each plastic bag.
2. Lay a piece of plain paper on the ironing board and base.
3. Layer the plastic bags. Make sure the layers you want to see are at the top & bottom respectively.
4. Paste a piece of plain paper on top of the plastic.
5. Set iron to medium heat. Iron each section of plastic from 8 to 10 seconds.
6. Once plastic bags have fused together, leave to cool for approximately 1 minute.
7. Trim off the frayed edges.
8. Trace out any design you like. Use a scissors to cut out the shape.
Find this post useful? Do share it and pass along the message about how we can work together to reduce waste.
If you try these projects out, do leave a comment and share your results, we're excited to check them out 😀
PS: Any avid Pinners out there? If you would like to collaborate on a shared #Upcycling board on Pinterest, do leave a comment as well and we'll send an invite your way!

Reaction Roundup :
Jim DeMint leaves the Senate, and everybody's happy about that
The reactions on this one are almost unanimous: Nearly everyone is damn glad to see Republican Jim DeMint (head bitter crank among bitter old cranks, kingmaker of his own asylum, biggest cracked pot in the tea party) leave the Senate for his turn in the lands of sweet, sweet wingnut welfare. The tea partiers love it because they figure DeMint will help Heritage break away from any past remnants of thinky-in-their-tanky and race headlong toward peak wingnut…
When men were free
"Tell us a story, Grandpa Santorum," several of the children said together. It was cold, and from the front of the concrete bunker, there was a low whistle as the wind pushed through the gaps around the old wooden door. "Tell us a story again, from the before-times."
Grandpa Santorum smiled a grizzled smile. The children knew he loved to tell stories; the old man knew they liked hearing them. "Oh, I don't know," he answered. "There are so many stories from those times. But I think I've already told you every story worth telling. I'm not sure how many more stories there are."
The children protested loudly. "Tell us what it was like!" said a small girl in a flower-print dress. "Tell us about the freedoms!" a bony young man exclaimed.

Bishops 'helped sway' Komen to anti-Planned Parenthood policy
Oh for the love of Voldemort. Reuters:
Internal Komen documents reviewed by Reuters reveal the complicated relationship between the Komen Foundation and the Catholic church, which simultaneously contributes to the breast cancer charity and receives grants from it. In recent years, Komen has allocated at least $17.6 million of the donations it receives to U.S. Catholic universities, hospitals and charities.Church opposition reached dramatic new proportions in 2011, when the 11 bishops who represent Ohio's 2.6 million Catholics announced a statewide policy banning church and parochial school donations to Komen.
Such pressure helped sway Komen's leadership to cut funding to Planned Parenthood, according to current and former Komen officials.
Stop it. Just be quiet already. Is there no eff-up that the bishops of my previous church aren't intimately involved with?

Tracking President Rick Santorum's first 100 days
Apparently Rick Santorum is going to be countering Mitt Romney's rip-roaring bout of nothingness with a speech of his own. The topic will ostensibly be what a President Santorum would do during his first 100 days in office, which sounds like the plot of any number of bad movies, all of which end with somebody or multiple somebodies getting nuked … Rick Santorum's first 100 days? One shudders to imagine. So let's imagine!

Florida Tea Party locked in pointless battle with CAIR
This one is a bit hard to summarize, but the short version: The Florida Tea Party would like you to know it is very, very tolerant, it's just that the Muslims are using Sharia against them and hate the First Amendment and stuff. That's why they invited the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) to their upcoming convention. It's also why they apparently near-simultaneously demanded a hotel cancel a CAIR event, an action that was meant as retribution for CAIR supposedly helping to get far-right blogger Pamela Geller, whose blog exists primarily to smear Muslims and whose name came up rather frequently in relation to the recent domestic terror incident in Norway, disinvited from another hotel a while back, all because CAIR hates us for our freedomz:

Incredible turn out for Walnut's emotional final walk
A dog owner was joined by hundreds of people and their dogs this morning on a "last walk" for his dog, who will be put down today.
Mark Woods has had his greyhound Walnut for 18 years, and recently made the decision to have Walnut euthanised due to ill health.
He decided to take one last memorable walk on Walnut's favourite beach beforehand, and made the walk special by asking for company – but he had no idea the response he would get.
Mr Woods, from Cornwall, put a post on Facebook on Tuesday asking local dog owners to join him and Walnut for a last walk: "Sadly I am having to have Walnut euthanised on Saturday November 12 and so we will be having a last walk together on his beloved Porth Beach at 9.30am.
Mark Woods says a huge thank you to hundreds of people who turned out to walk with him & Walnut today on their last stroll #walkwithwalnut pic.twitter.com/tbDKfogG70— Heidi Davey (@HeidiDavey) November 12, 2016

We can't be at Porth Beach this morning but are doing a virtual #walkwithwalnut here - with you in spirit pic.twitter.com/B3ToGktJNh— FindingFureverHomes (@NWDogRescue) November 12, 2016
"I would love it if dog lovers/owners and friends would join us for a celebration of Walnut on his favourite Porth Beach. He has had an incredible life and having reached the grand age of 18 is ready for his final sleep. Hope to see you on Saturday."
The post was shared over 2,000 times, with dog lovers in the UK and elsewhere expressing sympathy for Mr Woods and Walnut. Hundreds of well-wishers joined the two on Porth Beach today.
Mr Woods thanked those who joined him and Walnut on their walk, saying the response from other dog owners and the media was "incredible".
A post on his Facebook page said the messages of support were "beautiful and moving and supportive".
Those on the walk posted photos of Walnut and emotional tributes to the greyhound's last day.
Others who couldn't make the walk posted tributes from their homes, or on walks of their own.

The essence of religious feeling does not come under any sort of reasoning or atheism, and has nothing to do with any crimes or misdemeanors. There is something else here, and there will always be something else - something that the atheists will for ever slur over; they will always be talking of something else.
It is easier for a Russian to become an Atheist, than for any other nationality in the world. And not only does a Russian 'become an Atheist,' but he actually BELIEVES IN Atheism, just as though he had found a new faith, not perceiving that he has pinned his faith to a negation. Such is our anguish of thirst!

The Teller and the Truth Trailer (2015)
"For every missing person, there's a story. Within every story, lies the truth." 01 November 2015 Crime, Romance 82 mins
In 1974, 24 year-old Francis Wetherbee, a bank teller who is the subject of small-town envy and gossip, disappears from her hometown of Smithville, Texas two weeks after her fiance's bank is robbed. Her car is dredged from the bottom of a local river but it yields no clues. After a vigorous but futile search for the missing woman, the authorities give up, and Francis recedes into legend--until the case is revisited nearly 40 years later when key figures in her life come forward with theories and clues surrounding her disappearance. The film then morphs from documentary style to narrative as the odyssey of Francis' life unfolds for the audience and the truth is revealed.

A successful career in mechanical engineering depends as much on a creative, open-minded outlook and ongoing self-development as solid academic foundations
We may not be aware of it, but mechanical engineering is part of our daily lives. Inside a building, the water and electricity supply systems, ventilation system, elevators and many other facilities are all supported by mechanical engineers.
Even in the case of something as ordinary as the coffee mug on your desk, the moulding involves engineering process.
The nature of the job covers a wide range of possibilities. Mechanical engineers can engage in design, construction, manufacturing,
maintenance, system integration, sales support, management, research and development or work in academic positions, explains Ir Louis Szeto, chairman of the Mechanical, Marine, Naval Architecture and Chemical Division of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE).
In recent years, there have been more job offers from consultancy firms, but government, public utilities and transportation companies, universities, technical institutes and private organisations are also important employers in the field, he says.
Although he describes the market demand for mechanical engineers as constant, Ir Szeto notes that the sluggish economy has dragged salaries down. "In the past, fresh graduates could start with HK$10,000 to HK$12,000. This was about four years ago. Now, the range is only HK$6,000 to HK$8,000," he says.
New recruits usually begin as assistant engineers or, sometimes, trainees. Promotion depends on individual performance but, generally speaking, engineers who perform well get promoted from entry level to engineer, then senior engineer, manager, managing director and finally chief executive officer. In consulting firms, managerial positions are called "associate" and "senior associate". Those with 10 years' experience or above can earn around HK$35,000 to HK$50,000, Ir Szeto adds.
Summer internship is encouraged by the HKIE. Indeed, large corporations are usually willing to offer such opportunities to engineering students, allowing them to gain experience over a period of three months. Although the HKIE does not actively help find placements for students, it organises career talks at the Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education and the local universities to help them understand job requirements and professional development.
Ir Szeto points out that many degree-holders are reluctant to start their career in a low position, expecting to enter the field at supervisory level. In fact, they should treasure the opportunity to train themselves. "A solid foundation is good for their career development," he says.
Creativity is important, while a willingness to face challenges is what a successful engineer should possess to be able to design, create and analyse different things to help solve everyday problems and advance human welfare, he continues.
Self-enhancement is necessary in career development: Since many companies, especially consultancy firms, are looking forward to exploring the mainland market, learning Putonghua is one thing that young engineers can do to improve themselves.
In fact, some engineers are already stationed in or required to travel frequently to mainland China. Opportunities are now found at power stations and in petroleum production on the mainland, according to Ir Szeto.
To ensure further advancement, management-level mechanical engineers should be prepared to improve their technical knowledge or obtain an MBA, he advises. They should also follow developments on the mainland closely - made easy by the many websites covering this topic. Managers should also be familiar with mainland legislation in order to avoid violations.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) offers many opportunities to enlarge one's scope by becoming acquainted with information technology, new mechanical facilities, new legal concepts and new inventions, among other topics. CPD requirements are between 30 to 45 hours a year for different types of membership.
Increasing competition from mainland Chinese candidates is inevitable and mechanical engineering is no exception. Ir Szeto sees this from another angle, however. He thinks that Hong Kong candidates should try not to view this as a threat but as an opportunity to learn from whatever they are good at and utilise their experiences of communication and interaction to help improve themselves - bringing dynamism to the Hong Kong economy again.

Letter(s) from Ludmila Shukshanowa to Norris (USA)
Letter 1
I have decided to send you one more picture.
These are drums of my friends. I tried do it by myself and i can a little bit:)
I know that you're probably surprised to get my message. I got your email somewhere on the website. I don't remember which one it was.
Letter 2
My honey!!!!!!!!!!!
it is me,can you believe I am in St.-Petersburg. I can't believe ,it was wonderful flight and they gave red vine in plane,wow,I have never tried such tasty one!!!!!
I was in travel agency today, but my documents are not ready yet, it will be ready in 2 days.
So in 2 days I will go to travel agency again to get all info about my trip.
And of course, when I will get it - I will send it to you!
It is such great city and it takes a few hours to travel from one end to other. I took a taxi from the aiport to the flat i rented for few days.
They have such nice taxis ,it is Ford - Focus -not new one (1998 ) it was so nice jorney from airport to the flat.
So comfortable car,I have never been into such car!
Taxi driver showed me some nice places in St.-Petersburg while he was taking me down to the flat. Such a great city it is. I have no words to explain.
you can't imagine how great St.-Petersburg is,to be fair I wouldn't like to live here,a lot of cars,people, voice and pollution.Ugly traffic and people with crazy eyes.
When I get off plane in airport St.-Petersburg policeman asked about passport and he looked at me like I am any enemy, I think all people here are a little crazy at terrorism.
Life here in St.-Petersburg is expensive. I was going through some shops today and it is much more expensive than in our town. Food and all the general things. It is the same country but different prices, what a great change. I think people living in St.-Petersburg are very cautious ,I think so. But I think that I have done my choice and to be fair I don't want to live here,it is not the city of my dreams.
you know I am not coward I am not afraid I know it is my chance to meet kind man .I do hope I am right.
and I think you are too kind to make any bad things I feel it.
Well,I will close this letter ,please write as soon as possible!see you soon!KISS . Great kiss from St.-Petersburg!!!!!!!!!!Liudmila!
ps. I have some more photos of me for you!!
Letter 3
Hello my honey !
This is Liudmila again, so I write you from St.-Petersburg internet cafe.here are too many people as I wrote you and that's very unusual for me. Today I went to cinema and watched "American Gangster" recommend this movie so much.
It's very kind movie!!!!!
Also I liked that cinema in St.-Petersburg, it's very big!i've never been to such big cinema. Soon I will go to Museum and tomorrow I will go to the Alexandria theatre so maybe I will not have enough time to write you. I already bought tickets to the theatre, the play is called Cherry Garden (or Orchard, I'm not sure how to write it in Eglish). It was staged on a book of famous Russian writer Anton Pavlovich Chehov. I think I will like this play. I've been told there will play very good actors Kondratieva and Ostroumova. I'm sure you've never heard of them but that's OK. Have you ever heard about Chehov?
OK, I have to go now... I will write you more as soon as I can. If I can't write you tomnorrow I will write you the day after tomorrow after I visit the travel agency.
I already miss you!!!!
Yours, Liudmila
Letter 4

It is great fear to live here I think so!Our small town is more friendly . well,about our business, I tasted my blood,such rule for foreign visitors wanting to visit your country!Thanks God I am in good health, all of my tests are all right,I only need some vitamins I think it is the bad foods and long winters problem.I have to eat much more fruits and vegetables.The doctor said!

I think everything will be all right.Rather I am sure everything will be all right!.
My Dear, they have told in travel office that I have to show tickets when I will visit embassy after tomorrow before my flight.
People from embassy must be sure that I am not going to stay illegally in your country and I have tickets with returning data.it is very strong rule. I have some money but my flight from Tomsk to St.-Petersburg costed so much(about 600$) because so many kilometrs from there to St.-Petersburg.
I didn't guess that tickets costs so much.
and I have to book tickets till in less than 2 days ,because of my interview. May be you could borrow some money?I am sure I will be able to return it back in a few weeks after my arriving I will earn some money and at first to return all money to you.
in Agency they have told me that you may send it by Western Union.
It is pretty easy to use. The guy from the agency explained to me how their system works. It is instant worldwide money transfer system. All you need is my name and my surname to send me the money. Once you do this , I'll be able to pickup the money in any local Western Unuion office in St.-Petersburg.
We need to do it pretty fast, because we have no time till my intervew,if everything will be all right I will be on this flight!
I have about 300 US dollars yet and I think I need about 900 US dollars from your side with all travel needs and living here till my flight!If everything will be all right between us I can stay with you longer than three months,maximum I can stay about 6 months for first time! We should change only the date of my returning flight.
Or I can return earlier if something is wrong!
Here is more info about Western Union. You find any local Western Union agent, go there and send money to my name. Western Union will ask you for my full name and address in St.-Petersburg where I am staying at. Once you give them all the info they will initiate the transfer. In just less than 10 minutes I will be able to pick the money up at any Western Union agent here in St.-Petersburg.
you will send me transfer info and MTCN( money transfer control number ) I will get cash. So I will need your full name and your address + the control number of the transfer. Kiss you many times ,I am tired today,you know it is hard enough to be in foreign city. So many different emotions .
Kiss you many times! Liudmila! see you soon!
Ah, silly me. Nearly forgot to give you my full name info and my address.
My address here (the flat i am renting)
is Russia,St.-Petersburg ,Pushkina sreet,build 10 flat 22.
(right writting in English)Shukshanowa Liudmila !
I am sorry to send so dry letter but it seems to me I am like any drunker I have lost my mind and my head works so badly,see you tomorrow. I am sorry to make so many problems for you I only hope that you will be not disappoined to meet me.
Letter 5
Dear, I do not wish to give you a words of good bye! I am sorry about all the problems with the money!
But without your help I will not be able to fly to you. My relatives will no longer be able to help me out.
Mama gave me almost all the money that she had to help me out with this journey. If you can not help me, I will be returning to home. But I do not want to be lonely again. I do not want to return home.
I do not want to stay in St.-Petersburg either. I do not want anyone but you.
More than anything else, I would like to continue the trip! I want you!
I want you to surround me with your tenderness, warmth and care.
I certainly think about the future. I want us to be together.
I go to sleep and I wake up together with the thoughts about you.
They are not leaving my head. More to that, I'd like to wake up in your arms every day.
I'd like to be sure that you really need me now and in the future. I just want to look into your eyes.
I want to feel your warm breath. I want to see your smile and know that this smile is for me.
I want to be waken up by you rather than some kind of alarm clock. I want to be your sunshine.
I want you to warm your hands up in the back pockets of my jeans.
I want you to pay me with your kisses for the rental of my jeans pockets.
I want to belong to you and. I am yours and you're mine. I want to believe you and never question anything you say.
I want to hear your voice. I want to get to your inner thoughts. I want to be everything you need.
I want you to know all these things. I want you to love me.
Can't wait for the moment I board the plane and start my final journey to you.
I am sick without you. Thank you for your letter and kind words!
I am looking forward to hearing some good news from you. Hope you can help me out and give me your support.
I shall try to call.
When i am coming to you, agency will support me. What does it mean?
I am sign a contract that during one week they will provide me with job. Certainly it is not for free. I should pay them 10 % from my salary.
Also agency provide me with home.
It is a normal Procedure. Many girls and boy from Russia come to your country with The same contract.
All the documents is ready.
What i need now is just buy a ticket and show it in Embassy
I am return you money from my first salary.
I am missing you so .
Hope to your help.
I don't have enough time.
your Liudmila
Letter 6
I do not have opportunity to solve these problems in St.-Petersburg, it is another's city and nobody can helps me...
It is too sad to understand that I create problems to you, but I do not have other choice how to ask the help from you...
My heart will not sustain it. It is too much problems for little girl like me.
Now I think only about you and I want to come to you. i would like to know everything about you, to speak, kiss, hung you... May be more..
I have no place to move, if I cannot issue all during short time I should return home and then all my dreams will broke.

Dove Dry Spray Review
So my husband and I were sent a new box from Influenster, and it contained the Dove Dry Spray, one for him and one for me. I was excited to try it! I got this stuff and thought oh cool, Dove, I bet this is going to be a great product!
My first thought when applying was that it wasn't very comfortable to put on…. it sort of burned my underarms, but the smell was great so I went on about my day. Well, seeing as the can says 48 hour protection, I was surprised when about 4 PM that same day I could begin to smell my own sweat. For the next couple of hours I just walked around trying to keep my arms down! I don't normally use any sort of clinical or special deodorant, the brand I normally use at least lasts all day! Same issue for my husbands' as well. He went back to the Old Spice deodorant he usually uses.
- The smell was nice
- application was easy
- the bottle was sleek and modern
- Not very effective
- application was not very comfortable
I would not recommend this product for anyone who has excessive or very potent sweat at all! It might still be a great product, but it's definitely NOT for us.
Peppermint Mocha Rice Crispy Treats
So my family really enjoys doing food as Christmas gifts, and for the past couple of years we have made candy, cookies, and other edible items and given them out to family and friends.
My daddy taught me that there's nothing that touches the heart like a home cooked food or meal, and I definitely agree with that!
So anyway, we decided to go with sweets this year, but in a more simplistic way (since time kind of got away from us the past few weeks). We made three different types of cookies and some peppermint mocha rice crispy treats!
The cookies we made were:
-White Chocolate, Cranberry, and Macadamia Nut
– Butterfinger & Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip
– Salted Caramel & Dark Chocolate
I found the recipes for these on Pinterest other than the Salted Caramel, which I bought the mix for at Wal-Mart and just added the chocolate chips to the mix!
Now for my Peppermint Mocha Rice Crispy Treats!
- 2 – 16 oz. bags of mini marshmallows
- 10 cups crispy rice cereal
- 2 TBSP instant coffee granules
- 15 Bob's Sweet Stripes individual soft melt peppermints, crushed
- Baker's Semi Sweet Chocolate, 2 pieces
- 2 tsp cocoa
- 4 TBSP butter
Melt the marshmallows, butter, coffee granules, cocoa, and about 2/3 of the crushed peppermints down in a large sauce pan until completely melted and mixed together.
Remove from stove, and add your rice cripsy cereal, mixing together well.
Once mixed together, transfer over onto a pan and flatten out. Let cool for about 20 minutes, and then melt down your chocolate. Drizzle with a spoon over the treats, and then top with the remaining peppermint candy.
It's so simple but so delicious, I hope you like it as much as we do!
Influenster Comfort Box: Annie's Organic Tomato Soup
I'm an active member of Influenster, so from time to time they send me free products to try! This time around I got the Comfort Box, which included a variety of items, one of those being Annie's Organic Tomato Soup. My kids aren't very big on tomato soup but I figured it was free, so what the hay?
My kids had it for lunch with goldfish crackers and this is probably the first time they ate tomato soup, where they weren't complaining about it being yucky. I was very surprised, especially since there are no added sugars or sweetners. I don't think I will buy this item personally, because my kids still don't care for it much, BUT I would recommend it for anyone out there who does like tomato soup.
- Organic
- Sugar and Preservative Free
- Healthy!
- Container is a bit bulky
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Also feel free to check out Annie's website- HERE to see all of the other amazing products they offer!
Halloween at the Harris House!
Our community did Trick or Treating on the town square the day before actual Halloween falls, October 30th. The kids each picked their costumes online (so they could be exactly what they wanted and not be limited to Wal-Mart's selection) and Will decided to be a creepy zombie and Lily decided she wanted to be a Veterenarian (Vegetarian as she pronounced it, HAHA).
With Lily's costume it was pretty simple, we got her some scrubs and a doctor kit that included a stethescope, glasses, and a name tag, and then wrapped toilet paper around the leg of a stuffed dog that belongs to Will.
Will's costume was a little more challenging for me since I didn't just want to do plain jane makeup like I see every Halloween. I'm a huge fan of The Walking Dead so I wanted to do something along those lines, but less scary. SO! Off to Youtube I went and was very surprised that there were so many tutorials on how to make zombie makeup look realistic! I went over to Amazon and purchased Graftobian Clear Liquid Latex which cost me only $5.99 and also some Mehron Stage Blood which cost me $5.23. If I had gone to a Halloween store or even Walmart, it would have cost me a lot more! With the help of those, my regular face foundation, and some purple, green, yellow, and red eyeshadow, I made what I think is a pretty impressive zombie!!! Here are the finished results!

Hey guys! I'm an active member on Influenster, which means they send me products to try from time to time and then I review them. This time around they sent me some Reese's Spread to try and share what I think, so here goes!
We tried it two different ways, once with pretzels and then another time with green apples. I have to say, I think I like it better with the pretzels, but my kids definitely preferred the apples (They aren't big fans of pretzels anyway). This stuff is really tasty, but I think if it were a bit more creamy and not so thick, it would be easier to dip… my pretzels kept breaking off when I was trying to scoop some up. Also, it's very rich, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but after a handful of pretzels I had to put it down (which was probably a good thing for my waistline hehe). I would definitely purchase this stuff on my own, it was good enough that I would have it in my household again.
Overall, this is what I think about the Reese's Spread – Peanut Butter and Chocolate.
- Delicious
- Filling
- Very Kid Friendly
- Too Thick
- Pricey (I saw it at Walmart and was surprised at the price)
Hope you enjoyed my review and please feel free to share your thoughts!

Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty's Freedom First PAC has added six names to its list of endorsements for the 2012 midterm election.
The new endorsees include four top GOP House hopefuls, a Senate candidate and a senator:
-State Sen. Joe Heck, running for Congress in Nevada's 3rd District
-Iraq veteran Adam Kinzinger, running for Congress in Illinois' 11th District.
-Former Rep. Steve Chabot, running for Congress in Ohio's 1st District.
-State Sen. Mick Mulvaney, running for Congress in South Carolina's 5th District.
-Rep. Mark Kirk, running for Senate in Illinois.
-Sen. Tom Coburn, running for Senate in Oklahoma.
Coburn faces no real danger this year, but the other five will be waging closely watched campaigns.
To help the candidates, Pawlenty will match donations through his website up to the $5,000 limit for each candidate. He will also send a fundraising e-mail on the candidate's behalf.
As The Ballot Box reported yesterday, Pawlenty will do an event for Mulvaney on May 8.

text: Hi there, HarlequinStudio is member on this site with a couple of hundred posts, I was exchanging PMs with him a few weeks ago. I'm trying to contact him but he hasn't been on this site for 3 weeks and mysteriously his website (which was working) and email address don't work anymore. He didn't respond to a tweet either. Just since he was such a regular member I was wondering if anyone has another email address for him. Got some work for him

You're overworked, balancing too many things, and you barely have any energy left after doing your job.
(Or maybe it's not soulless, you lucky rebel you.)
The truth is, you want MORE. You want to focus all of your energy on your passion project/s. You want one of them to take off. To figure out a way to make money from it so you can stop doing jobs your heart is not in. To be one of the "lucky ones" who have made it work for them.
And I get how you feel...
I was side-hustling for almost a decade before I started my online business. It took a lot of courage, blind faith, and a few safety nets to get here. And I'm still figuring it out!
Truth is, you're never going to have any guarantees, so you might as well forget about it. And DO something. You don't have to be faced with the famous Crossroads of Should and Must to start planting the seeds of your future.
You may be tired from your life, responsibilities, and job, but you can do something today that will allow you a better quality of life later - create a personal brand.
You might think that the only way to "make it" in the online world is to have a killer business strategy or to have an amazing project idea that's just going to take off.
However, most people just need a comprehensive brand at the start. A brand that reflects them, not what they think they know. A brand that is as authentic and unique and lasting as you can be. A brand that is just YOU, all you.
From there, you will get a chance to build it into a business, don't worry. From experience, I can tell you that a lasting brand is way more powerful than any business strategy or project idea. It's because that brand will last you throughout all of your business and creative ideas.
So if you're ready, I would love to offer you some aids I think would help you on your way to your dream life.
It would be an absolute honor to help you.

Horrible experience. My mother passed away there in 2015. She was scheduled to be released in a week from rehab after a hospital stay. Nobody could tell me how she died. I got a call to come, they gave me 10 minutes and said that she had to be removed, as needed the space. I was still in shock when I arranged the funeral home to hurry over. I will never forget this treatment and simply a horrible experience.. I would hope that you take this to heart and do not set a foot in the place with a loved one.

We also had difficulties with the doctor not speaking directly with us. Unacceptable. I would not recommend this place.

I would NOT recommend this facility at all. We had a loved one in this facility for months that they promised to care for and help address their special needs. They insisted they had the skills but the resident only got worse. The staff would not allow us to speak with the attending doctor who was only talking to facility staff. They insisted they would address the needs. They would not even address regular care such as clipping of fingernails. We had to point this out to the staff. When we decided to move on to another facility, they resisted and did not help, they told us other facilities would not take him. In fact, other facilities did take him and were able to do in a few short weeks what PV could not do in months, at our cost. They insisted on additional aids at our expense because they could not treat the resident adequately. They did not attend properly to submission on insurance claims which we needed to correct and manage. Look elsewhere if you caress your loved ones care.

I am a past client of this provider
My brother spent at least 10 or 13 days at Potomac Valley, and he regretted it thoroughly. The rooms were like hospital rooms -- small and old, antiquated. We attended a few activities, but I was not happy with the treatment unfortunately. The food was well-balanced; I have to give them that. The portions were good, and it was healthy and nutritious. The dining area was less than desirable. My brother was place in a hallway with a lot of dementia patients who screamed a lot, and he was very sensitive to noise having had a brain aneurysm. Not a lot of accommodations were made to make him comfortable.

Short of staff.: Especially in the evening and weekend resident can wait in the room for ever after push nurse call button. Also some staff can be very rude. Communication also a problem. The different shift worker or different frequently not aware of new changes of patient's need. ie Resident medication dosage changed, the nurse was not aware, the medication envelop still provide the old dosage. Lack of team work Worker refuse to provide the simple request by the resident, resident has to wait until the designate nurse available to help the resident Website stated "Rehabilitative services are available six days per week" Rehabilitative worker maybe in the office but will not provide service, only therapist to provide the service. Some therapist work only part time and do not have enough time to provide services to residents. Have good entertaining programs.

I visited this facility
Awful! My mom is currently on oxygen and uses a walker. They expected her to push the oxygen machine and use the walker while going to the bathroom. Impossible!!. I noticed seniors sitting in the dining room sleeping while staff talked among themselves ignoring their care. My mom wasn't even on the right amount of oxygen. She is usually on 6 liters and they had her on 2!!! The staff mentioned to me that they hadn't have a chance to review her records. Seriously don't you read the patients records before you transport them to your facility. Don't be fooled by the high star rating.

Potomac Valley offer the level of care that my mother needed. She's been there for about two months now. The staff seems to be very caring and they seem to be able to handle Alzheimer's patients in a way that they need to be. They do offer activities for the residents. We like the way that they're handling the patients.

I am a friend or relative of a resident
Stay away, A third-world lack of communication, miscommunication center, run pretty much by a dominant culture. This brings misunderstanding, misrepresentation in speech received and given. IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO TALK WITH NURSES, AIDES, ESPECIALLY, MISCOMMUNICATION AND LACK OF ASSISTANCE FROM HEAD OF NURSING. AIDES DISTANT AND DISRESPECTFUL, MAIN FOCUS OF NURSING STAFF IS PILL PREP AND ADMINISTERING, THEY HAVE NO TIME FOR SPECIAL ATTENTION IF NEEDED, IF IT'S TIME FOR THE AIDES TO LEAVE, THEY IGNORE NEEDS FOR BATHROOM ETC, TO THE NEXT SHIFT. THAT'S ONLY AN ATOM OF WHAT'S NOT RIGHT. IF THE FAMILY MEMBER HAS ALZHEIMERS, YOU MIGHT RECONSIDER, A FOCUS OF THEIRS. AIDES HAVE TWO JOBS AND COME IN TIRED, IRRITABLE, DISRESPECTFUL, UNAPPROACHABLE, AND POSSIBLY CARING ILLNESSES AT TIMES FROM PREVIOUS JOBS AT OTHER FACILITIES. My review is not only poor, but "HORRENDOUS"

Runaway mum Rebecca Minnock hands herself into police
A MOTHER who fled her home with her three-year-old son has handed herself into police after saying that he "needs his routine" back.
Rebecca Minnock disappeared two weeks ago with Ethan
Rebecca Minnock disappeared with Ethan over a fortnight ago after she lost a bitter battle with her ex-partner Roger Williams, 39, over custody of their son.
She is understood to have handed herself in to authorities after 17 days on the run.
She said: "I feel that my time has run out now.
"I've heard today my mum's been taken to court. I know it's not fair to Ethan to keep running with him. He needs to go home. He needs his routine back.
"My only regret would be the trouble that my family have gotten into, all the police efforts and time I've wasted. Obviously everyone's been concerned but we've both been absolutely fine.
"He's been safe and happy and I don't have any regrets because I've spent so much more time with him than I would've been able to."
Ms Minnock said her son believed he had been on holiday and they had been having "normal, fun times together", including going swimming and visiting parks.
She told the Daily Mail she decided to hand herself in after Ethan asked to see family members.
Ms Minnock was in the Oxford area with her son when she came forward, Avon and Somerset Police said in a statement.
Ethan's father Roger Williams won a custody battle
DCI Marie Wright, who has led the investigation, said: "This is the news we had been hoping for and I am grateful to Becky for coming forward.
"Both Becky and Ethan will now receive the support they need and the appropriate welfare arrangements will be made.
"I would like to thank the public and the media for their assistance throughout this investigation."
I feel that my time has run out now
Just a few days ago, in a secret phone call to the press, Ms Minnock admitted that Ethan "needs his own bed" and said she had been contemplating handing herself in.
She said at the time: "I do accept that what I've done is wrong, I'm going to be in a huge amount of trouble for this. It's Ethan that I worry about.
"We're both actually doing really well. Ethan seems really happy at the moment."
Earlier today her mother Louise Minnock and close family friend Andrew Butt were jailed for contempt on court after lying about the disappearance of Ms Minnock and Ethan.
Gradmother Louise had previously told the court she had no idea where her daughter went, and claimed to have only realised that she was missing when police arrived at her home.
But Butt revealed he had informed her hours after he had taken Rebecca and Ethan to Cheltenham - before Louise was quizzed by police.
Louise and Butt were jailed for 10 and 28 days respectively for lying to police and withholding "crucial" information which would find Ethan.
Ms Minnock disappeared with Ethan on May 27 after a bitter two-year custody battled ended when judges ordered her to hand over her son to his father.
