Stupid girl party

Married straight women with kids love to have these stupid parties (variations on the classic tupperware party). This time it's purses and jewelry. Tacky gaudy jewelry. Purses? Ew. How to torture a heidi. However, Jill's new addition is gorgeous. Kelly & i introduced her to ikea :-)

Her husband found this awesome vintage phone booth. It functions as their home phone. The light turns on when you close the door.

Eating habits of the picky poodle

Nisha likes Kibbles & Bits, but only the bits. She'll leave the kibbles in her bowl until she gets _really_ hungry. This is like time lapse photography of her food dish.

Day 1 before feeding

Full bowl

Day 2

lauren writes at 09:56:41 01/19/11 - Comment #60249: This is too funny, because Ralphie does a very similar thing, except we feed him with this little ball that is hollow in the middle. You put the food in the ball and has to push it around for the food to come out, except he eats all the light brown food and doesn't like the darker stuff, which we think is harder for him to chew on, so there are little black food particles all over my house that he won't eat!

heidi writes at 02:38:03 01/16/11 - Comment #60241: (e:libertad) - I got her kibbles & bits because my aunt had it for her dog and Nisha liked it -I hadn't thought very hard about it because Nisha's not with me much, but yeah, I'm going to get her some good food. I recently switched China Cat's food to something much higher quality and she loves the food, her coat is gorgeous, she lost a little weight, and she's got much fewer hairballs. At A's, Nisha just gets whatever the household buys. A's dog is large so they go through food very quickly.

paul writes at 02:26:03 01/16/11 - Comment #60240: The tortoise used to be like that but now that he is older he is less picky. That and for the last year I started mushing all his food together.

Won't she eat any other kind of food? The first two ingredients are corn and soybean meal. An animal protein should be the first ingredient as dogs are primarily carnivorous. There are lots of very decent foods out there that don't necessarily cost a lot. PETsMART has a brand of their own (I hate them) that has corn in their food but it follows chicken, chicken meal and brown rice. :::link:::

IRS Free File: Itâ€™s fast. Itâ€™s safe. Itâ€™s free.

Join the 30 million Americans who already have saved money by using IRS Free File, the free way to electronically prepare and e-file your federal tax return.

Free File does the hard work for you with brand-name software or online fillable forms, exclusively at IRS.gov. If you made $58,000 or less, you are eligible for a free tax software
product. If you made more than $58,000 or you are comfortable preparing your own tax return, you can use Free File Fillable Forms, the electronic versions of IRS paper forms. Free File is available starting January 14, 2011. Explore your options at
www.IRS.gov/freefile.

Free File is a partnership between the IRS and approximately 20 software providers. The software provides a step-by-step guide to get your taxes done quickly and accurately. It helps you get the tax breaks you are due, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit. Providers use the latest technology to keep your tax information safe and secure.

You also can e-file for free, which means a fast refund and an electronic receipt from the IRS. Combine e-file with direct deposit and get a refund in as few as 10 days. Or, if you owe, you can file early and pay anytime before the April tax deadline through automatic withdrawal.

Free File software products are perfect for anyone looking for savings, for the first-time taxpayers seeking an easy introduction or for the experienced do-it-yourself filer. Free File
is for federal tax returns only, although some providers offer state tax preparation for free or for a fee.

Free File Fillable Forms is more basic and probably is best for people comfortable preparing their own tax return. It has no income limits; anyone can use it. However, it does not
support state tax returns.

IRS Free File. Itâ€™s fast. Itâ€™s safe. Itâ€™s free.
