I have an old set of Calphalon that I still love, but my favorite frying pan is my cast iron skillet that belonged to my mother's Nanna. She used to talk about how her Nanna would make brains and eggs in that thing :laughing: I'd give up my wedding rings before I would ever let that skillet go...

Thanks for the comments, but would like to close thread.

I have a college senior that goes to a different state from where we live, and his car is registered and insured in the state where we live. Even though he is at college, his legal address is here at home, and since his car is still titled in our name and insured on our insurance, it has to be...

They are 15 and 12. You are the parent. While I think it's pretty amazing they have a monetized YouTube channel to begin with, they are both still minor children and it kind of seems like you are expecting them to work this out like a couple of adult friends. I know kids today are far more...

Two days before I got married, I went in to have my heavily highlighted hair refreshed, and my longtime stylist suggested I just go solid blond since I had so many highlights. Awesome idea, I thought! After 4 hours, I walked out of the salon with a bright peach base color and platinum...

I'm obviously a lazyass, because I'm a midnight to 8-9'er. I try to catch Stephen Colbert's monologue before I go to bed, and since my husband works from home in the mornings and is usually on conference calls, I just lounge in bed till I don't hear his colleagues yammering and Golic and Wingo...

My niece is finishing up her rotations right now in her last year of PA school. She has her BS in Molecular Biology and graduated Summa Cum Laude from Pitt. I know she applied to several PA schools and did not get into all of them. She is going to work in Neuro-Oncology, so I'm guessing...

I would just call him up, be forthright, and tell him that it's your dad's wish to have everyone together to celebrate his birthday. And follow that with, we can do this for Dad while he's still alive, or all be together for his funeral, which would suck for Dad since he wouldn't know. And...

I always let my son set his own schedule, according to his jobs. We went through periods where he would roll out of bed at 2 in the afternoon, when he was working as a barback. Now though, since he's worked "real" jobs for the last two summers, he tends to get up early on his own when he gets...

One other thing I'll add about my cocker boys is that you have never known a food motivated dog, till you've met a cocker spaniel. Nothing is safe with them. When they were both alive, we came home once to a steak knife sticking out of the hardwood floor where it landed perfectly on it's sharp...

We've always let our son have a alcohol at home from the time he was around 16 or so, but I don't mean sitting around getting smashed, I mean having a beer/glass of wine with dinner, or a finger of scotch while smoking a cigar with his dad. He didn't go and "party" in high school since he...

My son is graduating college this May, and will go straight from college to moving in with his girlfriend, who by then will likely be his fiancee. Obviously, he doesn't have his post-college job lined up, but he's got enough money in savings to cover what he will need to lease an apartment, and...

I'm with you, Hadley. I like weddings that are specific to the bride and groom. Maybe it's my 52 year old, old fartiness, but I find big, formal, plated dinners, where you are sitting at round tables with 3 other couples, surrounding a dance floor, boring as hell. It's like being at a 80's...

Multi American Cocker Spaniel owner here, and I will tell you that our experience with our dogs has been wonderful. We got our twin boys from the same litter, 13 years ago, and we called them the "worst bred, pure bred" dogs on earth, lol. We got them from what we thought was a good breeder...

I was excited and nervous when my one and only left for college, and we have enjoyed it immensely each year. He is leaving for his senior year next month, and already has plans to go from graduation in May to move to a completely different part of the country to settle. We are a very close...

She's 85 and showing signs of senility. You're 48 and charged with her care. You need to man up and not get your panties in a knot. At this point, you are expecting more of her than she is capable of by insisting she not talk about your dad's affair. He had an affair, you are obviously are...

I wasn't advocating for Terminix. I was simply telling you didn't have the faintest idea what you were talking about by throwing out scientific-babble regarding what pest control companies specialized in, lol. And that's not an armchair internet expert opinion. That's a simple fact, backed up...

Since I've been married to a pest control guy forever, and since most of my family is in pest control, I gotta tell you that you are false on the bolded statement. Pest control companies don't just treat for termite and bugs. Rodent control is 100% part of their specialty. It has absolutely...

My husband is a cigar smoker. Not daily, but the kind that enjoys one with a glass of scotch, on the deck, or when he's playing golf. I don't mind going to big cigar stores with him, since they have good ventilation, but he only smokes outside at home. I do think when he opens his humidor, it...
