My mother in law says "fiddlesticks," it cracks me up! I like "darling" as a pet name, for men and women, I never hear anyone use darling, not even to describe something cute...

I throw salt. I also have a feeling if I say something terrible (like a plane crash) out loud I will jinx or curse my plane...You're not alone Daisy! I also picked up on something the other day...I always take two pieces of bread off a loaf together and then open them like a book so that when...

all a girl needs is a dremel and lots of bits! you can make anything into a pendant, or make holes to wire things together! i love finding old chunks of bakelite and buttons that aren't good for anything by themselves. i would love to be able to carve on it, but sadly my attempts have come up...

I have always wanted to try making felt hats, I wondered if anyone has ever tried to make a hat at home using felt. I have some wonderful hats from the 40's that I absolutely love...
