We're a family of three and seem to have many multiples of just about everything from towels to plates, so seems silly to not rotate the stock. Like you say, it only adds a few seconds when putting things away.Laurel Garverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657218435228802535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-80170363997864365522012-06-25T16:18:26.831-04:002012-06-25T16:18:26.831-04:00I rotate the stock, too!

It's just me and my husband and we don't have a dishwasher, so if I didn't rotate everything then we'd be using the same two dishes, glasses, silverware, etc. all the time. It does get tedious sometimes rotating, but it's not hard and it takes only a minute so I keep doing it!Laura S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13934230198562773803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-54150843464692451362012-06-24T12:50:57.273-04:002012-06-24T12:50:57.273-04:00I sure wish Wyoming were closer!

I'd be sorely tempted to drive on over. ;-)<br /><br />The newest incarnation of Dr.Who is really fun, much better writing, acting, production values than the earlier series that ran from the mid-60s to the late 80s. Like I said above, it's not particularly scientific SciFi but it values intelligence over violence to solve problems, which is a beautiful thing.Laurel Garverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657218435228802535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-42105108061547390152012-06-24T12:41:49.273-04:002012-06-24T12:41:49.273-04:00Ah yes, Girl in the Fireplace.

He took time to grow on me. The episodes in 40's London--Empty Child and its sequel--those are two of my all time faves. Like you, I still prefer Tennant to Smith, but maybe it's mostly because of their ages in relation to mine. :-)Laurel Garverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657218435228802535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-70604942312884954112012-06-24T12:37:41.675-04:002012-06-24T12:37:41.675-04:00I decided to not cover my guilty foods, knowing it...I decided to not cover my guilty foods, knowing it would likely make me hungry! :-)<br /><br />The travel bug is an expensive guilty pleasure, isn't it?Laurel Garverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657218435228802535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-22020975933718712712012-06-23T20:32:51.495-04:002012-06-23T20:32:51.495-04:00Tennant is definitely my favorite Who.

The rubber heads on the costumes...priceless.<br /><br />I would challenge any sci-fi fan to watch The Girl in the Fireplace episode and not get hooked on Doctor Who :~D<br /><br />xoxo<br />bruFebruary Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01078037856070486022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-24447475195599364142012-06-23T12:40:52.308-04:002012-06-23T12:40:52.308-04:00My husband would LOVE me to be that organized! :)
...My husband would LOVE me to be that organized! :)<br /><br />I wish I didn't love Pfish Pfood Ben & Jerry's ice cream. I wish I didn't love cookie dough (especially since I've developed an allergy to something in it and can't eat it raw anymore). <br /><br />In non-foods, I sort of wish I didn't like to travel, because then I'd be so much more content staying home. ha ha!A.L.

I hear praise about it at least once a week from someone!<br /><br />My weaknesses are books and chocolate. They get me everytime. Sigh... just came from the library after intending to pick up only one, maybe two books. Instead, I came home with five. It's hard to carve out time to write my own stuff when I get sucked into a really good book. Not mention, make healthy dinners, keep the house up, not snap at the kids... <br /><br />Sorry, long comment!Margo Berendsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476308235642890474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4263988256560129564.post-50983387307618859522012-06-22T13:49:32.794-04:002012-06-22T13:49:32.794-04:00The special effects and writing have improved dram...The special effects and writing have improved dramatically.

I've been meaning to check it out cuz I do love sci-fi. :)PK HREZOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650153097981426833noreply@blogger.com
