I think your hair looks great. Did you not like Whitney at Urban Hair? I would kill for hair as thick as yours. And a cute face. You should listen to GG!

But, I was flipping channels the other day and Chaz (sp?) was on QVC again! He mentioned that a lot of women have been reporting that their fingernails have been a lot better since they started using WEN. He said it was because of the lack of chemicals in it. I thought I would mention it since I knew you were having problems with your nails -- like me!! I've been thinking about ordering it again to see if it really helped with nails!! But, I love Nick Chavez' products and really hate to switch! |

I am growing out the gray in my hair and it looks like total crap. CFrance, you've only seen me at the dog park wearing a baseball hat! The only reason I stopped coloring it is because I've developed an allergy to hair color. I'm still having it highlighted though. I definitely do not have thick hair. (I use Big Fat Hair, maybe it works). I usually wear a baseball hat to hide the mess. I love downstairs Whitney. Unfortunately when I need a hair cut, I need it that day. Whitney is getting popular. And of course it's High Season, so now I have to wait a few weeks to see her. Of course, any good hair dresser has a waiting list. Unfortunately I'm not disciplined enough to make another appointment each time I get a hair cut. Sometimes a hair cut lasts me four weeks, sometimes eight weeks. I occasionally chop away at it myself. So when I need an immediate appointment, I usually get a Salon newbie, who hasn't yet built up a following. New Renee at Victoria Hair does have 15 years experience. I don't know where she worked previously. I was hoping someone could tell me they've used new Renee and she does a crackerjack job. |

As the old timers used to say: "Well, don't that take the cake". |

Are you massaging hand cream into your nails every few hours, or after washing your hands? I thought my nails were permanently horrible, weak and destined to split. I always used nail hardener until I read online that is the worst thing you can do for weak nails. I started using hand cream regularly. It turns out my nails were starving for moisture. Now my nails are strong and healthy - it's like magic happened. Try it, you may be amazed. But you have to remember to ALWAYS use a good hand lotion. |
I am putting this question here in the Girl Talk thread because I know I will get an answer and nobody will judge me for baking chocolate chip cookies.
A long time ago, I heard something about putting a slice of bread in with the cookies when they are stored in a tight container. I think that is supposed to make the cookies crispier. Makes sense I guess. . . Or does it? Seems like the bread would act as sort of a dehumidifier. So crispy cookies would result. But bread dries out if you leave it out. . .so would the bread give off moisture and make the cookies chewier? Well, I guess the bread would not really be out if sealed in the container with the cookies. So I guess the answer is, for sure, crispy cookies. Or is it? What to do? What to do? Should I just eat all the cookies straight out of the oven so I don't have to worry about them? Overthinking Laurie |
The moisture in the slice of bread will keep the cookies SOFT.
I vote to eat them the same day... then you won't need to buy bread :) |

But make sure you eat them standing up, calories don't count if you're standing up! And if you run out of home-made chocolate chip cookies, I noticed the Girl Guides are selling cookies at Publix! |
Thank you, Uptown Girl and Barefoot. I knew the Girl Talk thread would come through with excellent advice. -- and I sure am glad I asked because I do not want the cookies to be soft and my overthinking was going in the wrong direction.

What's your address, Laurie2? I'll be right there to help assess the situation.

I hate soft chocolate chip cookies and only like them crisp. What I do is after I have my fill, I store them in a container. When I'm ready to eat more, I simply put them in my toaster oven. I put the heat to 250-300 degrees and put the cookies in when I turn on the oven. When the bell rings that it reached the set temp, I take them out, let them cool and eat them. Viola -- nice and crisp once again! |
I don't know about the bread in the cookie jar keeping the cookies fresh.
That does remind me of another tip regarding bread. If you put a fresh slice of loaf bread in with your brown sugar, the brown sugar will stay soft and not become hard and lumpy. I didn't think this would work, but it did. The slice of bread will become hard as a rock and will need to be changed. But if you keep a slice of bread in the canister, the sugar will stay nice and fresh. Weird, huh? But it works!! |
It doesn't matter what kind of shampoo and conditioner I use, very expensive or very cheap, my hair turns out the same.
I fall for all the promises of volume and damage repair but my hair never improves. So now I use Suave Rosemary + Mint because I love the way my hair smells. |
