    Art is so subjective. What one person loves, another person hates. I actually made the roses, and E put them on the cake. She doesn't feel like she's good at roses, so I made them for her.

    Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

    We went to see Moana 2 last night. It was pretty good, but I didn't like that they set it up for 3rd movie. Am I the only person who is OVER sequels, remakes, live action versions, etc? Just give us some NEW content, please??? Not a sequel. A brand new movie, with NEW characters and a NEW...

    I just buy what I like. I try it on, and if it washes me out, makes me look overly large, or whatever, then it's a no-go. Doubt means don't!! And of course, it has to be affordable.

    I never read the Encyclopedia Brown series. I remember it was popular, which was why I never read it. The books were really hard to find in the library, always already checked out. So I never got ahold of them. This one turned out to be a huge letdown for me. I had worked out almost all the...

    OMG, THANK YOU!!! I really needed that today. I needed to laugh. Bless you. And that's exactly the song I thought of....I don't understand all the lyrics to that one.

    I have not used Spotify, but my daughter does, and her top artist was Abba, and 4 of her top 5 songs were also Abba. It kind of surprised me, really, because she's very eclectic. When we bake or cook together, we often turn on Disney songs and sing along, I often turn on Phantom of the Opera...

    Congratulations! That must be a great feeling to not HAVE to get up and go to work every morning. I imagine it's a lot different to just be able to do it if you feel like it. Enjoy your retirement!

    No, her voice isn't amazing, but she's a pretty good performer. I'd MUCH rather listen to her than Adelle. The radio goes off if Adelle comes on. She's horrible, and I know that's a very unpopular opinion, but she has REALLY bad habits. She scoops, she tends to go flat, I just can't stand...

    She says "I know! I worked very hard on my music this year." I've been a very good influence on her, clearly. Our driving instructor loved giving her lessons and he'd test her on songs that came on the radio. She could sing along with all the 80s songs. They had a lot of fun during lessons.

    Why? What's wrong with Taylor Swift? She's very talented, a prolific songwriter, and a powerful voice for women. She's pretty awesome, even if you don't like her music.

    E also has ABBA as her top artist, and 4 of her 5 top songs were ABBA.

    I just started Murder In The Family by Cara Hunter. It's a unique setup...it's not like prose. It's more like a case file. You get pieces of evidence like snippets from text, interviews with people, news articles, etc, and you are supposed to try to figure out who did it before the "experts"...

    So many people don't know how to drive in snow!! My ex-boyfriend was AWFUL. His mother taught him that when it snows, you have to pump the breaks no matter what, and pumping the breaks meant tromping on them. He slid through every intersection in the winter because he insisted that you had to...

    It's just one of those things you have to learn with experience. My mom didn't really teach me how to cook. I mean, she taught me how to boil water, and I could make a grilled cheese, but I had never used a knife until after college. I helped her bake at Christmas, but I didn't really learn...

    I finished P&P, which I always love...I can read it over and over. I just read How to Kill Men and Get Away With It by Katy Brent It was....twisted. It wasn't as fun and light-hearted as I was expecting. It was fine. I didn't DISLIKE it, but it wasn't as good as I had hoped. None of the...

    I see this was already answered, but just for some future reference, pretty much any time you are melting butter, use low heat. Butter burns easily, so you don't want to use a high temp for that. Melt the butter first, THEN add flour. Otherwise the mixture burns before the butter melts.

    Third time's the charm, right? This is the time you will love it! We never liked AK and always had terrible experiences there, until E and I went by ourselves in 2023. We took the train and did a drawing lesson and saw where they do operations and such, and they have the petting zoo, and it...
