That was the vape Moar contest. Rich won 10 bottles from them. Its funny that in the contest I didn't win, I may have found my ADV!!! Sometimes things work out that way. I've ordered 2 more bottles from them, but the first one I tried is my favorite! I won a bottle of a fruit loops flavor in another contest. I'm not a cereal person, and I'm not crazy about it. I only tried enough to taste, and it's 18mg...if you're interested, let me know, otherwise I can PIF to a friend here in Houston I just got switched over to vaping.

Oh! Thanks! I wasn't in on that contest, so I didn't see the "aftermath" and Rich didn't mention it. He never tells me anything. I chatter at him all day long, don't you think the least he could do is keep me up on the gossip? LOL!

Although I'd love to try the fruit loops flavor, to see how it compares, I have so much juice right now I'd feel horribly guilty, so why don't you give it to the new lady. I'm sure she needs it more than I do, if she's just starting out. I'm busy trying to figure out a recipe for my cinnamon coffee cake (which NO ONE seems to have made before, or if they did, it's not online anywhere), and if I hit it just right (fingers crossed), I might just well have a new favorite. Aw, who am I kidding? ALL of them are my favorites at one time or another! LOL! It depends on what time of day it is, and what mood I'm in.

I am down to 3mg nicotine now! I have always had a problem with too sweet when I get my nicotine below 5mg, but I finally have gotten past it....I do not know how lol, but it could be with experience of mixing over a year now?

 

[wvducklady]

LOL....that's the nice thing about here...we always go "off topic"..., lol

Haha! When telling a story that could be told in 2 sentences, Instead it eill tske me 2 parahraphs, because I always venture off. I am terrible at jokes...because I try to explain it as I am telling it!! Lol

 

[Amraann]

Thank you! I was trying to be original...lol...I personally am looking for a paw sticker in the right shade of purple for rescue to stick on mine. If I don't find one, I can do a purple paw charm!

Hubby is a doing a holiday event for the park this December and he is coordinating with the local pet rescue so that the entrance for the park during the event is a donation to them.

By the way if anyone has some fairly quick and easy childrens craft ideas I would love to hear them!

wvducklady, Hubby and I have the opposite arrangement. I cook, he preps and does the dishes.
If we do breakfast for dinner he will cook.

It's the contest thread Mothers Milk....Rich is on that one trying to get TDC, and @Seleya and I want Rainbow Sour...but if you win, the "psychic" picks your flavor...lmaooooo

Can I change my vote? I shot from the hip and missed the target. haha I wasn't taking into consideration prejudices/discrimination and you are correct about that. I just think this knife cuts both ways. I still think (discrimination aside) pay rates should be in the control of the owner/CEO/Corporate or whoever else makes the hiring/firing/raise choices. It's their money being doled out and many times they have several reasons for determining rates of pay that may not be as easy to understand as some would like to think. I have felt a similar unfairness (for disability discrimination) and yes I did stand up and say "I don't think so" as well so I certainly do not blame you for letting that store have it for discriminating against women. In fact.... I solute it as I do all single parents in the work force. I watched my Deaf/CI ( cochlear implanted at age 10) daughter get turned down for job after job after job because they did not want to accommodate her disability. At the same time she was denied disability because being Deaf is not considered one that limits the ability to work. She is an incredibly strong self advocate but sometimes the other side feels their position is just as strong. In some cases it is worth fighting for that equality and other times it just makes more sense to move onto to a place that is better suited in understanding fairness in the work place. So, ya, I change my vote, and I thank you for saying the words to remind me that there are many sides to issues like this.

Jode, I hope you know that when I disagree with you, it is in the same spirit as when I disagree with my best friend - with very much respect!! She and I have the most invigorating conversations, because we have such different opinions on many things, but we can discuss the differences with respect for each other!

You are one of the nicest, most level-headed people I've met here (there's some others in this thread too). Sometimes I'm amazed at your cool-headed replies in some of the more politically- emotionally-charged threads.

I hate to hear about your daughter being discriminated against. I am sure she is a strong and confident woman though, and something will work out. I hate discrimination of all kinds - except discrimination against jerks!

 

[KattMamma]

the poor guy that interviewed me said I was PERFECT for the job, but he couldn't hire me because I was white and not pregnant

I'm stunned. I think I would have fallen out of my chair. Wow!

sorry I got a little off topic!

we always go "off topic"

Um... there's a topic?

 

[Seleya]

Thanks!!!! That sounds really yummy!! You should post it here on the thread so every one can try it!
Everyone in my house loves spicey so your addition of sirracha is perfect!

I'll just copy and paste the message I sent you.

This is one of my favorite base recipes for chicken dinners.

Melt-In-Your-Mouth Chicken Breasts Recipe - Food.com

I tweaked it a bit for my tastes. I mix a healthy amount of sriracha into the mayonnaise until it turns a medium orange color, then garlic salt and pepper. Then I just use whatever cheese I have.

Oddly enough, I hate mayonnaise and the hubby doesn't like sriracha, but somehow this turns into a magnificent thing in the oven that we both love. The chicken is really juicy and tender. It isn't very spicy (hubby doesn't like very spicy) but it does have a nice flavor and a little kick from the sriracha. The cheese/mayo/sriracha mixture basically just turns into a soft layer of cheese on top of the chicken once its fully baked. So yummy.

 

[redrebel821]

I've done this with Franks hot sauce....so moist and juicy! And who doesn't love a bubbly layer of ooey gooey cheese???

 

[redrebel821]

Happens more than people think. I applied for a civil service job with the Army after I got out. It was the exact same thing I'd been doing FOR the Army at the SAME hospital I'd worked in. You'd think I'd have a pretty good shot, right? Noooooo.... I was actually told the "quota for Caucasian employees was filled"... And that although I was qualified, I could not be hired.

 

[Amraann]

I am out of serracha so I will have to try Seleya's recipe after my next trip to the store.

Hubby said my idea for BBQ chicken, corn and cheesy rice sounded boring he would rather I make chicken and broccoli stir fry. (OHHH contain the excitment!)
So what I am going to do is stir fry his chicken and the broccoli and make the white rice to serve it over.

Then take my chicken and BBQ it and take half of the plain white rice and make cheesy rice for me and have broccoli instead of corn Problem solved and everyone has what they want for dinner.
(I would really prefer Seleya's recipe but BBQ will work. OUr son can decide which version of the meal he wants.

Good plan!!! I'm doing orange chicken stir fry for dinner, I think.

I meant, to compare it to the Bird Brains! LOL! I was on that same contest for a while, too, but I stopped it along with the rest back in July. The weird thing was that I won a Star Mountain one and hadn't even posted to that thread for almost two weeks! LOL! That's the last thing I won, because I quit posting on the threads, but I'll pick them up again later.

This sounds really, REALLY good, but what's sriracha? I should know, being a spice-user extraordinaire but I confess I've never heard of it. Is it some kind of blend? If so, please share the secret? Thank you!

Jode I missed your post about your daughter so I am glad that Kattmamma quoted it.

I am absolutely furious to read that your daughter was discriminated against. I have no idea what her field of work is but if it was anything that my husband needed and was hiring for in the park .. If she was qualified he would hire her without a second thought.
