kitten1943 says "STOUFFERS MAC & CHEESE -- Can't stop eating it !! De-Liciou" about Stouffer's Macaroni and Cheese

kitten1943 — Wed, 20 May 2009 23:20:05 GMT

Oh my gosh ! Without Frozen Stouffers Mac and Cheese I would be lost. In a hurry for a great nutrious dinner - heat the Stoufers Macaroni & Cheese in the Microwave. I never heat up the oven. When done - quickly heat for 3 minutes more or less frozen green peas with a can or two (Depends how much tuna you like) of watr pack tuna. Mix together - add a salad on the side -- and you have one of the best balanced meals this side of heaven. My husband would rather eat this than most dinners. He loves this Stouffers Macaroni and Cheese. He will not let me purchase any other brands -- and for the boxes -- NO. We are adicted to Stoufers Mac and Cheese. We also like the stuff green peppers and most all of their other dinners ... BUT STOUFERS MACARONI AND CHEESE is one that our household is NEVER without. It is a staple. Convience - Fast - Healthy - (Well maybe a bit high on the salt) - Totally balanced - and the list goes on .. and on ... and on. ...

kitten1943 says "Webber Leux of the grill world. " about Weber Weber Spirit E310 Gas Grill LP, Black

kitten1943 — Wed, 20 May 2009 23:05:48 GMT

WEBER SPIRIT E310 GAS GRILL ... Howdy Fellow Grillers -- Never in my life did I plan to spend $700 on a gas grill. I thought my son nuts when he did a few years ago! Here I am - purchased a $400 grill - brought it home, half the burners did not work, the cover was "warped" after one use, in reality it was a mess. Off to Home Depot - grill in hand - to purchase a WEBER. 4 hours to put it together - but WOW NO COMPARISON. Heavy steel, stainless, etc. etc. Tripple burners, and all. Turn the propane bottle on - turn on the knobs - hit the lighter - WOOM the WEBER GAS GRILL fire is on. Within minutes the temperature is 400. Wow . I cooked chicken for my first adventure - YUM. Better than the resterant. I next did steak, then turkey burgers, and lastly hamburgers. Each meat was cooked just right -- no heat in this Texas house Gas grill keeps the heat outside in this 100+ temperature area -- WEBER GAS GRILL was awesome. I put veggies into the...

kitten1943 says "LEGGO - Neer a bored kids with LEGGO BLOCKS " about Lego wall of Legos

kitten1943 — Mon, 04 May 2009 21:25:10 GMT

LEGGO brand are the best for building hand eye coordination. My kids had LEGGO's when they were little - in the 1970's . I still have those original sets of LEGGO yet. We have added to them over the years. The old ones still snap into the new ones. This LEGGO COMPANY has not pulled tricks on parents to get them to purchase new. I love the LEGGO CHARACTERS. The little people snap onto the LEGGO blocks and little towns are started. Amagination runs wild, and little minds are active. Colors of the LEGGO blocks is great too. They help kids learn the primary colors. They can also gain insite of a square, rectangle, circle, etd. with the various LEGGO kits out. Never fear for being bored ... WHEN LEGGO BLOCKS ARE NEAR. I buy them for all my friend kids also. This is how convicted I am - Great toy for Great Minds. LEGGO BLOCKS Rock.

kitten1943 says "SCHWIN - Old time reliable" about Schwinn Airdyne Exercise Bike

kitten1943 — Mon, 04 May 2009 21:14:41 GMT

SCHWIN - PEDDLING TO weight loss and health. The "cool breeze" that flows from the front as the fan goes around is like sitting on a beach. It takes away the efforts of peddling in the outdoor heat. SCHWIN was my first bike -- as a kid -- and now my bike as a "big kid of 65". Exercise goes much easier when I sit - add the headphones - and peddle away my worries. Great bike - reliable - old fashion idea with a "fanning" result. I love it AND SCHWIN-ing away my worries and pounds.

kitten1943 says "I AGREE --- and disagree on King Sleep Number" about Sleep Number Bed - Select Comfort

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 10:35:17 GMT

OK - You are correct on pointing out it is not a bed to cuddle in ... BUT YOU can probably solve this by getting a single control. BUT - then each person does not have the power to set the number them selves ... WE LOVE IT. I have not checked for the MOLD ?? so may have a problem here, ALSO - if we have to fix it ourselves, this will be a problem as we both over 65 and not real spry. Hubby had a stroke, I have the big FIBRO. These are the 2 reasons we got the SLEEP NUMBER DUAL BED. It solved our problems. I have recommended it to friends - even offered to let them try it when we were on vacation. I UNLESS some of the horror stories here are true HAVE NO REGRETS. SLEEP NUMBER is GREAT. I am a 60 and my hubby a 45.

kitten1943 says "LOOK - A Garden in my house !! YUCK ! DYSON ROCKS" about Dyson Vacuum - Upright All Floors Bagless Cyclonic Vacuum

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 10:19:37 GMT

I have a thousand dollar plus THERMAX -- and hate it. Hastle putting it together, adding the water, dragging it around, water slops over, etc etc. BUT I have all this money invested so I kept on putting up with it. THEN ... along came my son with his DYSON. He has 3 dogs, got the "Pet Model" and kept bragging about how easy it was, and how awesome it worked, etc. etc. DYSON - DYSON - DYSON --- all he could rave about. But what about my Thermax? Mom - what about it. All you do is complain and I know you will love the DYSON. Finally last summer Tuesday Morning had clearance on the "Yellow Ball DYSON" ... Ok so it was still almost $ 200. but .... One hour later, and literally enough dirt coming out of my rug (that I had cleaned w/ Thermax) to plant a garden I was SOLD. Easy to dump the dirt - easy to operate - no mess, no fuss - and NO WATER. I wish I would of listened sooner. I still use the Thermax to purify the air -- BUT NO LONGER TO CLEAN. I...

kitten1943 says "NOT WHAT THEY USE TO BE !!!!" about Maytag Washer - Top Load

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 09:36:27 GMT

My first MAYTAG WASHING was purcahsed in 1971 when my son was born. I had a MAYTAG WRINGER ... ahhh good old days ... but got tired of it crushing the snaps on my new son's clothes. MAYTAG - home of the lonely repair man. THIS HE WAS. I do not think in the many years I had this ... He was 28 when I got rid of it as it finally died!! ... I had it serviced more than 3 times. Each time something small. So - I purchsed a new one. This one was made of PLASTIC PARTS - Junk. In the 4 years I had it I had numerous S/C on it. I got tired of if all and got a front loading LG. I wonder where the quality of MAYTAG went .??? Who owns it?? I do know it is not the SAME MAYTAG IT USE TO BE !!

kitten1943 says "BEST guy in town !! LOVE IT - " about Kenmore Side by Side Refrigerator

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 09:29:22 GMT

SEARS REFRIGERATOR --- Gosh oh my !! I was blessed the day Sears purchased my MAYTAG from me and let me purchase another refrigerator. I have not had one day problem with this KENMORE REFRIGERATOR. It keeps thinkgs just as they should be, the COLD COLD, but not frozen, and the FREEZER ... well frozen. I have had only one service call in 4 years and that was for the ice maker. Seems when you use the crushed ice, as I do often, sometimes it gets jamed in there. The repair man suggested to use the cube to clean it out. Since that tid bit WOW nothing wrong with this KENMORE REFRIGERATOR. I would purchase thier brand again ... but for now I am satisfied with what I have. My son just purchased a new 3 - door freezer on the bottom. I think this will be the next style I get ... BUT WILL BE A KENMORE. This is what he has and he loves it.

NO REPAIRMAN here all the time !!!

kitten1943 says "YUCK !! Maytag Man was ALWAYS HERE !!!" about Maytag Plus Refrigerator

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 09:20:30 GMT

MY GOSH -- I never thought MAYTAG WOULD GO TO THE DOGS !!! I had a MAYTAG wahing machine for literally 26 years so swore MAYTAG WAS THE WAY TO GO !! This refrigerator was AWEFUL ... the repair man was here working on it more than he was gone. Finally Sears purchased it back from me and I got a Sears brand that I love. My friend had the same refrigrator ... AND HERS WAS JUNK ALSO. MAY TAG should go TAG something else when it comes to refrigerators. YUCK ! ! By the way ... my son purchased, upon my advise, a upright MAYTAG. Nothing but problems for him also. Seems some put a RAT IN THE TRAP when Maytag moved on in the years.

MY SEARS REFRIGERATOR --- totally different on a 1 - 5 I give it a 10. Another story, folks

kitten1943 says "SMELLS - Quick solution -- Read on !!!" about LG Washer - Front Load WM2487H

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 09:13:11 GMT

OK FOLKS -- LISTEN UP !! I had heard of the smell that develops in this washing machine so set my brain off to solve it. Simple solution ... actually I should register this idea as it works AND costs all of about a dollar to solve. LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN. Now before you get your "panties in a wad telling me it will get in the way = LISTEN and READ ON. You purchase a small magnet - with a hook on it - and put it on top of the washng machine. You take a small bungee cord and attach it to the magnet, with the other end holding the washing machine door open a bit. WOW - Simple. Ya know when you had a top loader you probably never closed it (I did not anyway) so it did not get smelly. Quick and simple ... and your washing machine BREATHES .... MMM Fresh Air ... and no mildew smell. TRY IT. Oh by the way. use plain white vinegar in place of expensive fabric softners. It will clean the washer, and remove the soap from clothes. Do not tell Downey or Bounce...

kitten1943 says "Dad use to stay here all the time - Sweet Memories !!" about Ambassador Hotel - Milwaukee, WI

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 08:49:58 GMT

This hotel was one of the neatest in the area LONG AGO. I am ummm 65 + and use to go here as a child with my parents. They had the best lobster in the world, next to the prime rib. I have fond memories of this hotel, and would not hesitate to go there again. Visited it couple of years ago and found it still filled with "great memories" . I got the ROYAL AMBASSADOR TREATMENT. Right on the bus line also .. and near all the fun of down town. I place this as an awesome hotel with great value.

kitten1943 says "I-MAC ... Never fear "virus" when using a MAC" about Apple iMac Desktop Computer

kitten1943 — Sun, 03 May 2009 08:40:44 GMT

Where do I start. This is my 3rd I-MAC. I forst got one of those tourquise little guys long ago. I was a "grandma wanting to learn the computer on my own". I took one week class and have had nothing but fun on my MAC. Next one - the "Ice Cream Cone" I-MAC This one and I were friends for years ... I had a new businss so decided I wanted to have 2 computers. My choice ... I-MAC of course. I love my 24" screen. I did have one disappintment ... purchased it in December, Mac came out in Jan with a new version of I-Works. I called the mfg. as mine was not even out of lthe box yet and out-dated. They refused to do anything .... corporate decision I was told. If this is the worst that happens to me ... I will be fine. I also purchased the 3-YEAR MAC HELP + WARRANTY. Consumer Report said this is one of the few warranties the promote. I have used it 3 times now to trouble shoot problmes .. caused by "Operator" --- Not the MAC. I am MAC ADDICT FOR LIFE...
