I had migraine issues with menopause (yes! I am old.) I Had other major issues as well, but refused to take any drugs. My mother had a "pill for every ill" mentality that resulted in lots of bad drug interactions and addictions as well.
Therefore, I have a drug 'phobia' and avoid them as...
At this point, I am just checking and turning the belly each day. Meanwhile, trying to determine what I will use for the next piece.:)
I have not decided whether to smoke the bacon or just dry it in the oven. I don't want to ruin it, but don't have too much experience with my smoker yet. I...
I want to do some further research, but from what I understand, lard is actually less saturated than butter.
My experience thus far; my lard is not particularly hard and just a wonderful creamy white. This would seem to point to the fact that it is quite high in unsaturated and...
This is why I am doing my own. I try to avoid bleached, hydrogenated, and chemically preserved food as much as I can.
Purchased the hog from my family. They have a dairy and also raise sheep and hogs. I know what it ate. Then, I rendered the lard - trim any meat, blood etc., ground the lard...
I read often, but don't post much. Had to share this, however.
As part of my long term strategy and quest for further independence, I recently purchased a hog to butcher. I grew up on a dairy farm and have cared for lots of beef, but no experience with pigs.
Tonight, I am rendering lard to...
Been busy and have not been on here too much of late. However, I have not forgotten about your family. Please remember, you continue to be in my prayers - for your son and his concerns and also for Mom & Dad. I know it is tough on families, too. Hold tight to each other and your faith -...
My sympathies go out to your family. That is where I am as well. I have multiple allergies. For the past three months I have avoided the major food allergens - wheat, milk, soy, eggs, fish, nuts, shellfish. I also avoid preservatives and food additives as well as citrus and basically white...
We have one of these that we use at our outdoor shows in Winter. Works great except when the wind blows sometimes it is hard to keep lit. Would be fine for emergency use I would think.
My setup is very similar to this. I have two large office desks that fit into the corner at right angles. I use the drawers for storage and can sit at the to scrapbook, sew or whatever. They measure about 3ft. x 5 ft. on top. My husband built shelves that go the full length - they are about...
I have had my SR9C for about 10 months. I love it! Try to take it out at least once a week. No pocket carry with it though.
Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine!
Nurse and Mom of two boys (18 and 20 now). They survived! Kids ARE resilient.
Your biggest issue right now is to prevent dehydration. I would not be too worried about feeding her - let her tummy settle down. Just keep the fluids going. Lots of pedialyte and anything she will drink - preferably...
If you want to claim him go for it! I have no problem with that!
I do, however, believe you could get just as many different answers as the number of accountants that you asked. That is the nature of the tax code. Been there, done that!
I was simply referring to the fact that she is not...
You will need to study Publication 501. If her parents claim her there are five tests they must meet 1) relationship - check, 2)age - check, 3)residency - NO check - she must have lived with them over half of the year minus school, 4)support - they must provide at least half of her support - see...
