My mom used cloth diapers. She said the they were better financially and they prevented severe diaper rash. I'm going with traditional cloth nappies and pins, personally. We are going with a wet pail because we got a kit which included an environmentally friendly nappy soak. We're also going to...
Stone Cirlce Older than Stonehenge
This is a fantastic article shared with me by a friend about some amazing discoveries going on in Turkey from stone circles with carved reliefs to a small, carved creature that can only be described as a sphynx which pre-dates Egypt...
Lola Valentine, I've had similar problems in the past finding stockings that don't look a bit silly because of my skintone. I'm with KittyT as far as the 15 denier goes. I haven't atually seen any vintage ones up for sale that aren't a bit dark for me yet, but I did find some nice new ones that...
Lolita you look fabulous! The length is very nice on you.
Vintage Betty I'm pretty bad with my hair. I finally gave up because I let the stylist talk me into layers again and I can't get anything to work right now, but your idea of stating out slowly sounds like something I should try...
I get something similar to that, only I suppose people think I'm the slob. When I'm out doing my daily business, like grocery shopping, I usually walk, which is a half hour walk, so I'm sort of a jeans and tee-shirt with my hiking boots kind of gal. I quite often get upturned noses and rude...
Jamespowers: I suppose when I think of a proper education, I think of morals as well, though that is a sticky subject since to some people an act may be immoral where it might acceptable to others (and I don't mean things like genocide or human mutilation but some of the finer distinctions)...
I love the faux bangs. They look great on you. Oh, and I want to raid your closet, though I'd probably have to alter stuff to make it fit my somewhat portly figure lol lol lol
My husband recently came across a seller that was advertising "rare 15th century German Helmets" that amounted to tin cans with fake visors slapped on. They look like they might be about 30 years old and are obviously SCA reproductions (and not really very good ones at that), but someone who...
I think there are more ways of going about trying to change things than donating money to charities, though that is important. I would hope those of us who have children in our lives, whether they be our own or the children of family members and friends, make a constant effort to educate them on...
My hair is long, wavy and thick, and, like a complete nincumpoop, I let the stylist talk me into layers again when I got it cut recently, so I can't seem to get it to go up in anything besides a ponytial because of chunks of the shorter hair falling out. I'll have to give the rolls at the back a...
lol lol lol Now that would be a tough law to enforce. But I think Surely was possibly meaning that if we experience snobbery, we should not feel bad about standing up against it and letting the "snob" know that his or her attitude is not appreciated. Please do correct me if I'm wrong, Surely.
I just watched a silly, yet entertaining movie called The Affairs of Cappy Ricks. It's not a fantastic movie, but it did make me laugh. I've been watching a lot of older, public domain movies on the Internet Archive because it's free and we don't have TV. :)
Well, in the catagory of romantic, screwball comedies, I've always been particularly fond of Bringing Up Baby and My Man Godfrey (the William Powell and Carole Lombard version).
Answering in the stead of a hubby whose computer is off, no, it's not ivory, but it was being built while JRR Tolkien was teaching at Leeds Uni and writing Lord of the Rings, so it's still fairly snobby. ;)
I've posted some links to this site on a few other threads and decided to post a thread about it. The Internet Archive hosts public domain movies, cartoons, shorts, documentaries, etc. Some of the movies are quite good, some are intensley bad, and many are from the beginnings of the era of...
