Hi all, I'm just wondering if it would be possible to herb plants in a basement suite that doesn't get very much natural light? Our new suite is very nice, but it has teeny windows that do not let much light in. Would it possible to grow herbs on a counter top or is sunlight a requirement? Many...

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you guys know that as of this week I've got a home computer again (LOL, at long last!) And as of today I've got the internet again (it's so awesome :smile:). These last 2+ months (and the 2 that proceeded them while we were still in Ireland) have been...

HI everyone, I have an announcement to make. It's something that has come about very suddenly, and of which we were not saying anything until things seemed to be substantially concrete. In the past few weeks (literally, I mean “few”, as in just since 2006 started) my husband has come to be...

Wishing you a wonderful Birthday filled with many happy memories, and a fantastic year ahead!

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone else has encountered this... Sometimes (not always, so far it seems to be random) when I post a reply in a thread, after I hit the "submit new thread" button instead of having the page load to show my post at the top (or bottom depending on what your user...

Best wishes for a wonderful day filled with happiness and great memories. May all your wishes for the year ahead come true! Happy Birthday ArticKatt!

I'm not really sure what got me thinking about this (perhaps because I'm hungry and it't won't be dinner for another 2.5 hours :tongue:) but I began to think about all the diverse different foods that people serve at their weddings or places that they go to eat. Which leads me to ask, what did...

I like to serve this with a drizzle more of cream on the top and plenty of hearty bread for dipping. Winter Comfort Soup 4 cups of vegetable stock 2-3 carrots peeled and sliced into circles (thickness of your choice) 2 Gala apples peeled, cored and sliced 1 butternut squash, peeled and...

Inspired by the current thread about weird ice cream flavours, I happend across this site which has a random ice cream flavour generator. What random flavour are you? I'm "Rainbow Raspberry Vanilla Sorbet". That sounds fantastic, I'd love to dive into a bog bowl of that!

Hi Charlotte, I just tried to respond to the PM you sent me and it seems that your box is full and not excepting any more PMs :smile:

Happy Groundhog's Day everyone! Do you think he'll see his shadow?

Dinner ideas for January 30th? I think it'll be half leftovers for us tonight after our weekend of pantry cuisine (have a serving each of sweet and sour veggies and rice and mashed potatoes in the fridge). Not enough spuds to make a Shepard's pie (hmmmm - well :lol:), so I might make a batch of...

Hi all, Jkath's vintage clothing thread got me thinking...When I was a little girl my Grandma would put my hair in rag curls (my hair is natually straight as a board, and rather on the thin side) and the next morning I would have these adorable little ring curls. I'd love to try and put rag...

Hi all, this may have been discussed before - sorry if that's the case :smile: Kimbaby's post about hamburger uses got me thinking...What are your favourites things to put on (or in) your hamburgers?

What's on your menu today? Personally I haven't yet decided...Might make a veggie soup for me and some gnocchi for DH - it's still entirely up in the air :smile:

Happy Birthday Susi, I hope you have a wonderful day!

A very special happy birthday to Cartwheelmac, I hope that your 14th b-day is an awesome one!

A new member Classicalvoice mentioned in the healthy eating forum that he is looking for more ways to eat greens, so I thought I'd post a favourite kale recipe of mine for him and everyone :smile: Garlicky Broccoli and Kale Stir-Fry 8 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely sliced 1/8 cup...

This gave me a great 7am chuckle :mrgreen: Kermit's Xray

Happy Birthday Luckytrim, may today and all of your days be blessed with happiness and wonderful things!

Hi all, (okay big breath, I can do this) this is my first time posting in regards to “weigh ins”, but as there's no time like the present... I've decided this year to make the most cliché of cliché (lol) resolutions and try to loose some weight and become a bit fitter. Without quite literally...

A homemade take on the classic gummy candy, that uses sugar-free ingredients, yet still comes out tasting sweet. You can use any shaped cookie cutters that you like or just slice the “candy” into small squares. I'll be the first to admit that it's not food colouring free/chemical free, but it...

It might be chilly outside, but no matter what time of the year I think that ice cream always tastes good :smile: Are curious what flavour of ice cream you are? You Are Strawberry Ice Cream Sweet. Romanic. Genuine. (IMHO, I must say that I agree entirely with my" ice cream personailty".)

Happy Birthday wishes Haggis, I hope that it's an awesome one for you!
