Yes, I do realize that the midwest is made up of all kinds of people from many different places/backgrounds - but I guess what I am looking for is some good "ol meat and potatoes" recipes. My husband was born in the midwest and has been living here in California for the past 5 years, where he met me :)
He misses the type of food from where he comes from. Any recipes?
Thanks~

Oh...and I have asked his mom for some recipes, but she only gave me a couple. Looking to get new ideas.

when the train blows its whistle
i know what time it is
and when you give me that look
its no more than a quize
as i've seen that look before
thats when im up an adam
and headed out the door
your words are fists of fury
you scold me like a dog
thats why im in a hurry
you got me jumpin like a frog
i go off for a spell
in your furry you do dwell
and when i get back home
you always give me hell
once you calm down
you make it worth all that crap
naked and giving kisses
while squirming on my lap

In the beginning of my marriage to my ex husband, one day I started to cough up blood. My ex and I both went down to the doctor and were tested for tuberculosis. They tested him just to be safe since he didn't have any symptoms at all. What they found was that I was completely alright,but he actually did have it and had to be on medication for 9 months which did make it go away.

Another odd thing has to do with my car when my son at 3 weeks was hospitalized and I had to get a biopsy. On the freeway, the engine belt broke. I know nothing about cars, so I didn't know. The car kept going out whenever I had to stop at the lights, but always managed to restart and finally stopped starting altogether right in front of the hospital. I told the mechanic what had happened after he told me that it was the belt, and he had this shocked look on his face. He told me that when the belt breaks, the car can not go anywhere. I had gone 20 extra miles than was logically possible.

She works in a rest. "cayote grill", i guess it's been around 4 yrs. now.
anyway, all she ever does is complain about the staff. How they discriminate her at work "with age remarks/age-ism, cut her down, don't invite her to places because of her age, sort of make fun of her personality quirks,ect"
Mostly the staff is all around in their early 20's. She's 42 [I think she said]
Anyway, I kinda find it hard to believe she gets crap constantly as she claims.
Do you think her co-workers are being to hard on her?
or they are just joking around once in awhile and she's greatly over reacting
I guess I am asking for her coz next time when she complains, I can come up w/a more realistic answer from someone who's in the restaurant biz themselves
{she says she constantly tells them off, do u think she should just ignore it}
so don't know what to say to this person anymore, can't relate!
any help would be appreciated, thank you

At work there is this guy who I've been recently flirting with. He'll jokingly make comments like let's go and make out and such. Always is commenting on my eyes, likes to put his hand on my back. Is starting to give me massages. I do know that he flirts with other girls at work, which is fine, but he doesn't give them the physical contact he gives me. We've been doing this for about a month now, he hasn't asked for my number or anything. Let me know what you think. Also, he started to ask me questions on things I liked, such as favorite movie, food, color, etc.

I have a contract on a home and we're supposed to close in one week. My boyfriend and I are both on the mortgage loan. I tried to get the mortgage broker to switch it to just be in my boyfriend's name, without me involved. Well, he dragged his feet and today told me to do so would take another 21 days which would put us behind on closing and my bf is pressuring me to get over it so we don't have to postpone. So, My question is, if I am on this joint mortgage loan with my bf, and something bad happens between us and I want out of the relationship, what can I do. I've heard I can have my name removed from the loan so that the lender can never come after me for funds in the future? is this true? Is it expensive/complicated? Or is the only option to refinance the mortgage just in his name? What is the process for this? Thanks for any help. I feel stuck between a rock and a hard place. Want to know my options should something go wrong with us... Thanks :)

Here's the deal. I'm 33 years old and I keep getting into relationships with women that seem sincere and nice on the surface but in the end turn out to be evil, soul-sucking, and callous. I've tried to date different 'types' of women from different places and even in different age groups, but always seem to end up with the same result: the opposite of what I was looking for.

Anyone have any suggestions on how I could meet someone that is REALLY (not faked) nice, sincere, good-hearted AND can appreciate those qualities in a partner without taking advantage?

**The reason I am asking in this category and not the dating category is because I'm pretty convinced my problems are a result of something I'm doing unconciously. Which, if that is the case I'd probably get better advice here.

i'm not sure why but i'm very sensitive to presence of any kind of dogs, as long as they're within like 100m from me i'll walk another way or hide. but i've been wanting to keep a chihuahua as a pet. partly because i know it's really small, and to me it doesn't really look like a dog. strange i know, but i won't freak out when i see a chihuahua.

my question is this. i'm afraid to approach a dog, chihuahua or not. how to overcome this? and i really know absolutely nothing about dogs. is there anyone who has a chihuahua and can help me to understand this breed?

also, the chihuahua they sell in my country don't look as pure as say in the States. can i actually import one? but i wouldn't want it to go through a month of quaratine!

appreciate all the help i can get. thanks!

I think it does. I NEVER hear any white people give reasons as to why OJ is innocent, most think he's guilty! You would think there would be a sizable population of whites who would look at the case intelligently, but no!

Of course, many blacks side with OJ purely on race, but many know the cops like to set up people! There is a point, since OJ is very well-off. Fuhrman resented that a whole lot.

okay so there is this girl, she is a MAJOR flirter with guys..she can get guys to like her within like 5 minutes. shes so different from everyone else i know. shes just got her own peronality style (obessed with being different)..& wont give anyone her secret
with people that talk a lot in class shed be like "omg you're so cute!" or like "omg i love you"

I wrote a really good poem for school, the only problem is i can't seem to translate i right into italian

Migration
Escaping the ruined beauty,
leaving their lifes in the past,
they couldn't turn back,
to what used to be luscious fields anad happy family homes,
was now a blank black ditch,
so they ran, they ran from disaster to the place they now call home

Someone who goes to a Church of Christ told me that they had these people come in and sing at the church, and they clapped their hands while singing. As a result, 20 people from the church got so mad that they left the church. Why is that?

Im ambidextrous.

2007-09-19 19:03:23 · 18 answers · asked by Anonymous in Polls & Surveys

I have been here for some months, regularly ask and answer questions and (generally) try to be respectful of other's beliefs even when I find them to be confusing to me or even foolish.

When asking questions I try to use words and style that are in keeping with my "targets". As an example - and only as that - when I ask questions specifically to Christians I often capitalize the word "He" when referring to Jesus. The reason I do this is because I feel it's most respectful to those I'm asking the question of.

On the other hand, I'm an agnostic and don't believe in these particular dogmas but rather am here mostly to learn about other's faiths, why they believe what they do, etc.

My question: Should I continue to use a style of writing that defers to, or uses what I perceive to be the grammatical customs of those I'm asking the question of (or those whose questions I'm answering) or is this being somewhat patronizing?
