    Vintage Bathing Suits

    My 3 year old has a white swimsuit, not vintage of course. We were at the lake yesterday and when I took it off her it was seriously dirty, all the dirt on the outside came out in the wash but the inside lining still looks a bit dingy. I'm not brave enough myself for a white swimsuit lol I wish...

    Pale or Tan?

    I guess I can tan really nicely if I want to, I was golden all summer long from swimming pretty much all day every day as a child. Growing up in Minnesota we were always at the cabin on the lake and at home we had a pool. I'm also part Chippewa Indian so I think that helps. As an adult though I...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    Have you ever ordered from www.bravissimo.com ? They have lots of bras, swimsuits, and clothes "for big-boobed women" (their description, not mine lol ) They have back sizes as small as 28 and cup sizes up to K. I really like their clothes as well, it's nice to find a fitted blouse that doesn't...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    I hear ya, I'm actually a 32 but figured I just might be able to get away with a 34 since I've gotten rather good at altering my bras! Actually many bra shops do alterations so if you find one in your area check them out.

    Wine Pairings

    The recipe says cooking wine? I'm not sure what "cooking wine" is but I assume it isn't great so I'm looking to choose a wine that will be good in the sauce and for drinking.

    Women's hats are back?

    I hope they do come back into fashion, then maybe I won't get so many strange looks while wearing my lovely hats.lol

    Fashion Rules of the Past

    A lady need not remove her glove to shake hands. Unless she is wearing gardening gloves, those of course should come off. I believe a man is expected to remove his glove to shake hands with a lady. I have no idea the protocol for him to shake hands with another man. :p

    Wine Pairings

    Wine Pairings

    I am trying to match a wine to a meal and would appreciate any opinions. I'm serving pork chops, green beans and wild rice. Okay so the wild rice is 100% wild rice, not the combo of long grain and wild you get from Uncle Ben. It's seasoned with salt, pepper, and rosemary and then added to the...

    Home Economics

    I use my crock pot quite often myself, love it. I have two crock pot cook books that have given me great ideas. My other fave cookbook is from my childhood church in Minnesota. It has "real people" recipes in it, no hard to find fancy shmancy ingredients. Just good Lutheren dinners, lots of hot...
