    Please help me with a stray cat dilemma

    For the past 4 or 5 months I've been taking care of a stray cat. She was sick and emaciated when she 1st started coming around. She was completely feral and it took a few weeks for her to allow me to pet her. At this point I can pick her up and she adores Aspen, my Akita. They play all the time...

    Holy turkey!!!! Need help/advice, please.

    I'm about 24 hours from putting the turkey in the oven and to my horror, I open the fridge and see the nicely defrosting turkey in a pool of it's own juices... :ohmy: Turns out, even after I inspected the wapper in the store, there are 2 tiny holes in it where the juices are leaking out. Is...

    Well, it did... Someone got a hold of my debit card information. Don't know how, don't care. Long story short, I caught it, bank took care of it and I moved on with life knowing that this person would never be caught. Here's the fun part... :rofl: Someone from the online company called me...

    Anyone handy around garbage disposals?

    I just moved into a new place. The disposal worked just fine at first. I threw some stuff down there and now all it does is make a whirring sound. I had put veggie scraps down there like I did a million times anywhere else. Some onions and celery, slowly of course with the water running. Next...

    Hummingbird feeder

    I set up a feeder just like this (could you imagine that many birds at 1 feeder!) I've been in the same location, 3 summers in a row. Past 2 years I set up the feeder when it starts getting warm with no problems. I use plain water and sugar, no coloring. I use enough sugar til the water gets...

    Laptop question

    Has anyone had a laptop that shuts down if it over heats? I've had it almost 2 years now. It's a Gateway. I brought it to Best Buy about 3 months ago to fix after spilling a soda on it. For the past 3 or 4 weeks it's been shutting down on its own. I'm assuming it's because of overheating...

    Tornado in Atlanta? Naaaaaa...

    So I'm sitting here scoffing at the tornado watch for my area (Augusta, Ga) going by at the bottom of my TV screen. I look outside and would say it's partly cloudy, if that. Go to my Comcast homepage and see this. Six miles of downtown Atlanta... Anyone here from Atlanta? Did it affect you?

    Ultimate recipe showdown

    Anyone watching this? The winning recipes become meals at TGI Fridays. Had the Peruvian Herb chicken tonight. Not impressed... at all. I'm sure the original recipes done on the contest were exceptional but this kinda sucked. The herb mixture was ok. The chicken was dry, almost jerky dry. I was...

    ISO TNT Beef Stroganoff

    I searched the site but didn't find much. I've already tried 4 recipies I've found online but they're just not cutting it. I don't know what it is. I just can't nail that "tang" I'm looking for. I've used from a miniscule amount of sour cream to nothing but sour cream added as the sauce and...

    Question for cat owners...
