Trying to keep an alcoholic family memeber from it. She will be going to rehab soon. However when she gets out. How can I keep the local stores from selling it to her. Do I go to all the sotres in a ten mile radius. Asking them not to sell to her. Or are they just gonna laugh at me. What do I do?

When I was a young'un (about, ohh, 23) I used to be able to "do" vodka. I love vodka! It tastes ok, doesn't cause hangovers, and most of all, it "works" with me, it would make me much more relaxed and affable, totally non-violent drink for me. Nowadays, I have 4 Vodkas and cokes and have to stop. I'm not relaxed and affable (aka "drunk"), that amount of alcohol has little pyschological effect TBH, but it attacks my head instead until I get a dizziness so violent, accompanied by that "moving vision", that I am sometimes sick from it.
Why has this started happening? Is it like my body's defence board saying "OK. This guy likes vodka/alcohol a bit too much, let's make it hard for him to drink it and hard to get drunk"?

I'm looking for a recipe using boneless chicken breasts, no canned soups or sauces, no added veggies. I want a simple recipe where you just add dry spices/seasonings, maybe butter or olive oil. PLEASE also give baking time and temp, I am a new cook. Thank you! :)

I used to buy small jars of shrimp cocktail at my local grocery store and they were GREAT for a low-fat, healthy, mid-afternoon snack. I haven't seen them around in years now! Does anyone know what I'm talking about or know of a brand that I can research?

One of the ladies is bringing a spinach dip and another is taking a bean salad. I want to take something that doesn't require a lot of prep time and will go over well.

That is a very interesting study, but in also in a recent study, one very interesting conclusion was found concerning 600 case studies(now remember, the FDA approves drugs on a regular basis with case studies as low as 30-50) of people 600 people who lived to be 100 years old or greater...are you ready?

Not a single vegetarian among them, not 1.

There may be something to eating a balanced diet(regardless of ones personal beliefs, just a certain people refuse to let their children have a blood transfusion, while watching their child die) since in reality, the human being is a predator(like ALL predators have eyes located at the front of the temporal lobes), and the canine teeth which we all posses are designed specifically to rip flesh.

I was a "veggie" for six months as an experiment while in college, and frankly, my options as far as food was fairly bland. Food and sex SHOULD be enjoyable as well as healthy(in moderation).

This is a silly question, but how do I get frozen hash browns to come out like they do at restaurants (Denny's, IHOP, etc.)? Whenever I make them at home, they're not crisp and crunchy like they are at restaurants, and they don't have the same flavor. What's the trick? Do they use a particular brand? Do they fry them in oil, and if so, what kind? Or is it butter? Should the pan be extra hot?
