I had Cardio Party 3 but sold it. I liked the workout but both times I did it I ended up with severe back pain. Go figure. Sparrow My garden is filled with papayas and mangos My life is a mixture of reggaes and tangos Taste for the good life, I can live it no other way - Jimmy Buffett

Reality shows are cheap to make and easy to resell. I've never been a huge fan of sitcoms, at least not since the days of Cheers, Family Ties, Cosby etc. The writing on so many sitcoms is horrendous, it's all "set up the joke, punchline, set up the joke, punchline." Sparrow My garden...

To Kill a Mockingbird is my all time favorite book! I just finished a great book about Katrina, The Great Deluge, and am waiting for a bio of Mao from the library. Sparrow My garden is filled with papayas and mangos My life is a mixture of reggaes and tangos Taste for the good life...

>Just curious - what is it about ETL plan that makes it so >restrictive? I've never tried it, so I'm wondering. hi Gail! I don't know that I would say "restrictive" so much as I would say "lack of variety" at least for me. I felt like every meal had beans. I like beans as much as the...

A toast to real mayo - and butter! :P I have to say, DH and I tried to do Eat to Live the last few weeks and have been sad failures (DH called it "food for people who don't really like food.") I think the book has some great ideas (cooking with salsa -love it!) but I just found myself...

Curly Girls is a great book! I second it. My hair is long and curly and for the most part I don't have issue with frizz except on the most humid damp days. I have used expensive (Aveda Brilliant Retexturing gel) and cheap (Herbal Essence gel) that worked well for controlling the curl. I...
