Eggs with green onions (scallions) are a traditional spring food here, perhaps because of the many Welsh immigrants of three hundred years ago. I mix four eggs, one chopped green onion, a sprinkle of jalapeno pepper powder (my substitute for salt), and cook in olive oil on a low heat. Delicious!
A life where keys are never lost
I could go on but the rest are more obscene and this was mean to be a wholesome living tips thread
It is a sad cause and effect relationship.We don't have nearly as many words for clever or competent people....maybe there aren't many
Okay top tips for not losing your keys
1. Bear in mind hexagram 37 uc , your home, your hearth, your washing machine...Okay, with your home close to your heart how can you lose your keys ? Oh you hadn't they were in your home all along.
he told us a few horror stories of where people would have had no trouble getting out of the house except they'd left their keys in the kitchen where the fire was after locking their door from the inside.
Yes, exactly. "Well don't be absent-minded." "Okay, I won't, because of course that is a promise I can make."Of course having said that the time keys are lost is when we pick them up to go out and get side tracked.
How i stopped losing my keys.
'A place for every thing, and every thing in its place'
I put them in the same place every time i get home,
Then i dont have to think about where they are,
Because they are in the place designated for them,
Their little home.
Same with glasses and phone.
Another tip:
Make liberal use of reminder aids, such as marking on the calendar. . .
A life where keys are never lost
Always leave the kettle with water in before going to bed so if the water is cut off you can still have a drink in the morning
Ah here's another ;
To keep towels nice and bouncy and absorbent ;
a. do not use fabric conditioner
b. put white vinegar in to the 2nd rinse.
and the date on which I treat the cat for fleas and ticks (every six weeks).
Your cat informs me, telepathically, that you only think you treat her/him every 6 weeks. She has a system too you see, gets at the calendar with a bottle of tippex when you're out. Tells me you are 'easily duped'. her words not mine
When you have tubes of cream, hand creams/body creams and so on and you cannot get any more out by squeezing do not discard. You will find you have several more weeks worth left if you cut the tube in half, so much is still in there to use. You can keep it stored by slipping one half over the other half after using. Tubes of cream can last another month or so by doing this

I have done this!When you have tubes of cream, hand creams/body creams and so on and you cannot get any more out by squeezing do not discard. You will find you have several more weeks worth left if you cut the tube in half, so much is still in there to use.
But I don't see how this part works...am manipulating imaginary tube-halves in the air, trying to picture it...wouldn't there still be open ends exposed to the air?You can keep it stored by slipping one half over the other half after using.
For corn meal and dried beans, I put them in oatmeal boxes.
Though of course you're also delaying the expenditure to buy a new tube. Even if you're technically saving only 10 cents worth of remnants, you're putting off spending a chunk of several dollars. The almighty cash flow(Actually what I think this accomplishes is mostly delaying the errand to replace it, rather than saving much money. What clings to the insides of the tubes may last a while, because you're only using a little at a time, but as a percentage of what was in the tube to start with it's pretty small from what I've seen. I'm all for delaying errands, though )
I use oatmeal containers for things, too. Lately I've been storing rice in them. Much easier to measure a cup of rice by scooping into a box than trying to pour it out of a bag.
Though of course you're also delaying the expenditure to buy a new tube.
I remember a talk by a fire officer who pointed out knowing where your keys are in the night...or any time is really important so you can get out ! he told us a few horror stories of where people would have had no trouble getting out of the house except they'd left their keys in the kitchen where the fire was after locking their door from the inside. The extra time looking for keys really endangered them. My keys hang on a hook near the door.
Of course having said that the time keys are lost is when we pick them up to go out and get side tracked.
Top Tip
Don't give others advice on how to keep keys safe and so on as it's bad luck and you will lose your own. When others lose keys just be sympathetic and say 'it can happen to anyone', that way , fingers crossed, your keys might stand a chance of staying somewhere normal, where you'd expect to find them.
Of course I could always ring the landlord in the morning if I just couldn't find it....and then if he could find his, he could let me out.
