    Justice for Girls

    I've also been able to use a 40% off coupon when the store is already 40% off, depending on the date range for the coupon. That can make for some nice deals. Be sure to check their clearance area, too. I picked up some cute valentines and some glow sticks recently that were clearanced and then...

    OMG--I grew up in a house with the slanted ceiling in my bedroom (which I shared with a sister, so 2 twin beds in our room, similar to your pics). Was a major disappointment to a child since we couldn't jump on our beds because of the **** ceiling. :giggles: Yes, very cool house!

    CW pet lovers - I need your support tonight

    My heart goes out to you. We put down a cat 11 years ago and I still have photos around the house of him. We also have a small bunch of his fur and every once in a while I come across it and have to touch it. :cry1: We got 2 cats a year ago and they are sweethearts, but that other guy was just...

    Bestest Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe?

    This probably doesn't qualify as it doesn't look super easy or simple for kids, but it might be worth the extra effort for some. Cook's Illustrated is a cooking magazine from America's Test Kitchen. I like that they explain why they are doing something in a recipe. Perfect Chocolate Chip...

    Make premium vodka with your Brita

    You can use your Brita to make premium vodka. Seriously! Here are the directions from the Spring 2011 cooking magazine called "Entertaining" (an "America's Test Kitchen" magazine).

    Corty got in the paper!!!

    Cool! Gotta love volleyball players :happy:. Does she play libero--is that why her jersey is a different color? (Back in the olden days when I played, that wasn't even a position.:snort:)

    need advice re:hair wax

    I'm guessing wax was recommended because my daughter's hair is very thick and she's got natural wave to it. So I think the wax is to help put it in place without the wet gel look. When she left the salon, her hair looked amazing! But now with all the rain the past couple of days, it looks a bit...

    need advice re:hair wax

    What do you consider "not expensive?" The salon was suggesting (of course) I purchase the product there but it was a small bottle for a ridiculous amount of money (can't remember specifics riight now). I checked Target today (using up the last of my Revlon tools Q's) and it seemed pricey to me...

    need advice re:hair wax

    I am a hair dunce through and through. My 11 year old just recently got her hair cut very short and the stylist recommended using hair wax. Any suggestions on: 1. Do I bother with this expense? For an 11-year-old? 2. Do I get wax, gel, mousse, or paste, or anything else? 3. Any particular...
