    Mandoline: To Buy or Not to Buy? Questions Answered

    I read somewhere that tomatoes need to be really firm. If they are overly ripe or soft, they will not slice properly. I've grated cheddar & mozzarella on it, but noticed that the cheese has to be really cold/hard.

    Funny Party Lite Candle Consultant Invitation Fail | Chyntha vs. Cynthia

    I would just wonder why, if she already KNEW that she misspelled your name, she didn't take 2 seconds and re-write a new invitation (or wite-out and try again).

    Lesson Learned - No 30 Day Bonus

    Thanks for all of the advice. I've decided to just take a DEEP breath and let it go. I am an official consultant thanks to my other sales and I will still get my SS bonus of 50 PC$ for 4 shows in 90 days. I'm just losing out on an additional 50 PC$ by not closing in my first 30. It's...

    What Are Your Favorite Easter Recipes?

    I'm doing a champagne brunch at my house. Making the Apple Danish Braid, a zucchini & mushroom lattice pie (my mom's recipe) and some kind of egg casserole that I haven't figured out yet. I hadn't even thought about dessert, though. The fudge in the Sm Oval baker sounds really cute!

    Best Dog Breeds for Families with Kids: Pugs, Labs, Beagles, and More!

    I don't have either of the mixes that you are talking about, but just wanted to put in my 2 cents about two of the breeds that you mentioned...Every dachshund that I have ever seen is extremely snippy and temperamental. Having a 2yo that wants to be in the face of the dog is not a good mix. As...
