This Popcorn Machine is a plastic replica of the old-fashioned, street-corner popcorn stand of the early 1900’s. This convenient tabletop size electric popper uses hot air instead of oil, so it produces a delicious, healthy, low-fat snack. A measuring cap assures the proper amount of kernels is poured into the top before the unit is turned on. The popper has a capacity of 3-1/2 ounces of kernels

Now that we all live in Web 2.0, maybe we can talk about the “old” web and the “old” way of making money online. So what is the old-fashioned way to make money online? I’m talking about the simple and profound methods of electronic dividend reinvestment. Here’s what you do:

By: SKG9 Old fashioned aprons would probably have to mean something that is not new. Aprons that were worn by our ancestors and even in times before that. One thing is for certain, aprons have always been necessary as a means of keeping oneself clean and tidy during particular duties.Old fashioned aprons were generally a lot bigger than they are today. They would have fancy ruffles and bows and ex
If you are looking for a healthy scone, it doesn't get much healthier than this. It isn't fancy, and if you are accustomed to those big butter, big calorie scones sold at American cafes, you may find this old fashioned scone a bit humble. This is the brawny, salt-of-the-earth peasant scone to Starbuck's high maintenance cosmopolitan diva. It is a dense scone when compared to its butter-rich
Many Americans have grown up with wall to wall carpeting as a normal part modern domestic life. Older generations of Americans remember a time when any type of rug or carpeting might have been considered a nonessential item of household furnishing reserved for the more affluent.

Whenever I'm stuck with what to buy for someone on birthdays, condolences, anniversaries and celebrations, the old fashioned way of sending a flower arrangement still work best. It's hard to explain how flowers can warm hearts and bring smiles even to a hard pressed and stern person but it is still an effective way to touch hearts today. It may be just a plain bouquet of roses or a grand bouquet of mixed blooms, online ordering has made it easy and convenient for people to send their appreciation and love. Beyond Blossoms even offer reward points with every purchase and order from their online shop.

I was flicking through my folders to find a suitable photo for this week's hunt and I stumbled upon this image. It was taken in Singapore at the Peninsular Building's open carpark and I was playing with 'Sylar' - our Canon 400D.
An old fashioned cathedral with a peek of newest Singapore Flyer at the background - where the old meets the new.
So after a couple of days of recuperating from stuffing our faces with turkey (pun intended), I decided to to bring the kids, the inlaws, and John over to Latterman's Mill to experience a little bit of an Old Fashioned Christmas. I thought it would be fun for the kids, and to be honest, I also thought it would be a great photo op. Boy, was I ever wrong! We didn't realize there would be so many people and the weather wasn't exactly comfortable to be out for too long. My brothers inlaw, Jim and Joe, decided to tag along with us, but high tailed it out of there when it was too hard to find parking - this was probably the smartest move anyone made that day.I was trying to get Ava interested in the Christmas tree - she liked it for all of two seconds and then she wanted to run all over the place, instead.She did like the juggler and his stick "thingy-ma-jigs". In fact, she was mesmerized. However, do you see the the wooden steps on the upper right corner of the picture? Did I mention tha
With the cold weather starting here in the heartland I was craving tapioca pudding. My favorite flavor of pudding... but only if it's homemade. I don't care for the chemical taste of boxed puddings so I prefer to make it from scratch whenever possible.
About two or three years ago I had bought a package of old fashioned tapioca at a Mennonite store in my hometown in Iowa. Over the past year

My daughter isn’t a big fan of the spice cookies or molasses softies that I make regularly, and my wife told me that my daughter wanted me to make sugar cookies. It’s been a long time since I have made sugar cookies, but I knew the recipe I wanted to make. Cookies that go by the name, sugar cookies, actually vary quite a bit, with many folks considering the cookies that are decorated with frosting as sugar cookies. To me, a sugar cookie is soft and delicate—much more delicate than the tough cookies one usually finds underneath a layer of frosting during the holidays. And, of course, the cookie must be sprinkled with sugar—why else would it be called a sugar cookie? Plus, unlike those other sugar cookies, these cookies are decorated before baking. Maybe that’s why these are called old fashioned? They certainly elicit memories from childhood.
An unexpected ingredientThis recipe is pretty simple, but one ingredient you might not anticipate is orange extract.
Attempts to use the worldwide Web as an effective means of struggle against bureaucracy are undertaken constantly and sometimes successfully. Today it is possible to fill in a tax declaration, apply for bankruptcy or to receive a legal consultation. And lately there are sites offering online divorce services.

As is typical for me, I'm sitting here at the kitchen island literally surrounded by some of my cookbooks. I especially love my old church cookbooks, as well as the Neighborhood Lady cookbooks from the 50's. I even have a cookbook from 1910 that is almost 100 years old now! I treasure all of them... new, old, fadish or classic.

Even though I don't officially have time for coffee or blogging this morning, you knew I'd be here. In my jammies with severe bed-head, teeth un-brushed and needing to wash my face and go potty, but no, I'm here. Coffee and computer were of utmost importance this morning.
Remember the post where I mentioned I may have taken a baby step to becoming gainfully employed again? Well... let's chat

Why is it that going green is so often equated with going back to basics? Grandma and Grandpa had it right I guess. (This is actually not that true. I had dinner with my boyfriend’s parents the other night and his grandfather has decided to stockpile all the old-fashioned light bulbs he can get his hands on because he doesn’t want to switch to the new ‘twirly’ ones when the ban comes into place in Canada!)
Anyways, Greenpeace has launched a line of organic, unbleached, old-fashioned, cotton cloth handkerchiefs as a fundraiser. Support a great cause and get a little greener at the same time.
The handkerchiefs come in a pack of three for $10.00 (CDN funds) and are available through Greenpeace Shopping!

Isn't there just a hint of nostalgia in the soul when one wants to meet others the "old fashioned' way like we did in the good old days before computers, cell phones and chat rooms? That thought of going to a party and "clicking' with someone one. Or starting a conversation with someone at a concert, or in a coffee shop to pass the time? Last week in a local coffee shop, I looked up to see a cute young guy opening the door. This cutie was about 35 years old and I could only see the upper half of his body though the window as he approached on crutches. As the door opened, I said to him, "Come on in, Crip" … and as he did I could see not a broken leg. No… Maggie, that would have been ok because broken legs heal. This cute guy (a solider perhaps) was missing the rest of his leg. God did I feel like a creep. But he smiled and went on his way. I suppose not addressing him at all would have been just as insulting. Who knows? I only know that I'd rather mak
When I first lost 55 pounds six years ago, I did it the old-fashioned way with diet and exercise because that's all I knew. My cardiologist simply told me:1. Walk 30-45 minutes a day2. Quit eating greasy, fried foodsLater, I fine-tuned my diet and exercise routine, but my weight-loss journey has been done all on my own. No meetings, no buddies, no forums, no websites or blogs. I'd describe my weight-loss method as the "Scared Straight" plan. My cardiologist showed me my angiogram and I freaked out! I've been a good boy ever since.There has to be others out there whose weight loss journey started the same way. Feel free to post a comment or response.
