My daughter knows how to make the perfect hard-boiled egg. She practically studied it. I’ll ask her. 🙂
“Be a landlord, return December and then January’s rent to the tenants”
I’ve always wanted to buy a car and give it away to someone I see walking on the street/waiting for the bus. Having spent many years as an involuntary walker, it seemed like a fun idea. I’ll probably never have the kind of money to do something like that, but you can bet if I ever win the lottery- that’s first on my list.
AWWW> Let’s take on Allspice next (the only thing I know to do with it is a sprinkle in apple pie?)
Allspice? Pumpkin Pie.
Deli Meat? Why the fear? Way better to buy it at your local deli than pre-packaged at the grocery store!
Montreal? Best city in Canada! Take Sean there sans kids and cross off 2 things on your list at once!
I LOVE this list – need to start one of my own!
This made me laugh. Where you’ve crossed off learn how to hard boil and egg, does that mean you already learned how, or decided it isn’t worth it?
Eva, I posted this list a while back and a dear friend sent me an email with the subject line: How to hard boil an egg. It then went on to say:
Put raw eggs in a saucepan.
Cover with cold water.
Bring just to a boil.
Turn off heat.
Let sit 15 minutes.
Rinse in cold water.
Done.
And I did it and it was awesome. I fear we’ve been eating far too much egg salad since I crossed this off. I should really add: Learn not to loathe the idea of making risotto. Tell me when you make your list!
Greetings from Colorado! I’m bored to tears at work so I decided to check out your blog on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the knowledge you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how quick your blog loaded on my cell phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, superb site!
trying to find you, whats your facebook?
