Millie, you are a person after my own heart. Organic and natural is not trending in the Pillsbury bake off at last check. They have had gluten free, but that's against my religion, unless it's straight up meat and potatoes. I am thinking about vegetarian or Indian/American fusion, my every day reality. The thing is, I want to win the whole thing, not just the healthy category. Who knows. The biggest limitation is 7 ingredients! Hamburger helper has that.

My small problem with pillsbury is that I am a home baker. My strength is that I haven't always been. I was a young person who grew into this love of baking because I adore bread.
Now though, even if I find an appealing quick Pillsbury product recipe, using a mix galls me, I even soak and cook beans and make refried beans. I'm weird, I know.
From you all in more sophisticated circles, or more foodie ones, anyway, I hope you will suggest any upcoming food trends. We've had the salted caramel, kale, cronut fads, fashions, superfoods.
I am right now exploring Trinidads foods, and Indian flavor profiles. I think food from Trinidad smells better:) I still prefer baking to cooking, but I need a win and this is in my wheelhouse. Suggestions and encouragement welcome!

CHILD BAPTISM
by megabyte_vijay init is strange to read the last week watchtower that encouraging child/teenagers' baptism.
even jesus was baptised as his 30. jws encouraging marriages at an older age.
but why they are encouraging children to get baptised.

Soon they will encourage early marriage and childbearing will be pushed to Duggar proportions to bump the numbers. Maybe in the loyalty convention. -

My brother died last night
by LisaRose ini found out this morning that my brother died last night, he was also an ex jw, 73 years old and died of heart disease and kidney failure.
it was not totally unexpected, as he had been in poor health, but it's a blow, especially as i just lost another brother two years ago.
there were six of us, now only four.

I lived there 30 years ago. Don't buy electronics in times sqare. I saw them selling PanasOanic radio's. I imagine it's now cell phones that are from Appel or something. Don't get snagged by a street hustlers card games. Be judicious about eating street food. Eat NY pizza. God I miss that!
See if your favorite authors lived there. I went to see where Louisa May Alcott lived and her neighborhood. shop at the street art/food/flea markets. Buy a small piece of art from a street vendor that created it. Have a handful of quarters or tokens for street performers. Play checkers with an old guy in the park. Be open to conversation. People do talk, don't be afraid-or weird. Eat a lot. Go to a Greek diner. I don't know why, but I liked them. Get out of Manhattan and visit queens or Brooklyn or my old neighborhood, gun hill road, in the Bronx. By the medical school or hospital.
Beautiful time to visit! Have a wonderful visit. Just experience the city.

The half frozen pudding was the only thing I looked forward to. Bringing our own TP was not a highlight. We all know that running out was not uncommon. . .drip drying doesnt always work, -

JWs will tape with permission and they will make sure it is watched by as many prince fans as possible. It'll be a pr/evangelizing tool. People watch that crap and lots of rabid on down to sentimental fans will watch. :( -

by disposable hero of hypocrisy inhttp://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5744214272901120/suicide-idea?page=3&size=10.
i can't comment on this topic on either of my devices or multiple browsers.. so we're shutting down topics now are we?
i'm assuming you've disabled commenting due to your feeling that it's a troll.

We are all here because this damn cult survives by destroying families, relationships, and self esteem. Some yhat came here did kill themselves! People I cared for who felt unloved and unlovable.
Myvmom has told me how ugly, hateful and unworthy I am my whole life. I know she is full of shit. At 23, it may be hard to see beyond her space right now. I hope she gets good care. There IS a whole life beyond 23. Hell, I am 50 in 3 weeks and if I lost it all again I would be devastated too! But ive rebuilt before and I know there is good out in the world and I can/do make it better. So can the poster who thinks all is lost. Stop protecting your abusers and shouldering the blame. As many say, a life well lived is the best evidence of the WT falsehoods and ugliness being reality. They are not THE TRUTH.

I thought it was time to talk.....
by wozza ini'd like to relate an experience i had yesterday with a couple of jw's "working" with a cart yesterday.. been coming to this site for many years and these days i don't feel i've got much to contribute ,but i was out yesterday doing some voluntary work for a friend who has gone on an overseas trip .travelling around my local seaside area doing the job at hand ,i came across a couple of jw's sitting in a shelter overlooking the beach and had their trolley propped against a large public rubbish bin ,it was actually hard to see ithe trolley from most angles - whatever happened to lifting the basket to show the light stuff ...oh well .the large carpark was pretty empty except for us ,we've had pretty wet weather here lately ,bad storms and here they were set up for a days witnessing rugged up with wind and spitting rain ,i sort of thought " well that's dedication " ....that was my first thought then i pulled myself together and then thought "if i wanted to get some time in and not have to work at it too hard this maybe the place to go if i was a jw still".. well i finished my pickup and looked over at the two and realised i'd read other's experiences about approaching the cart people and wondered if talking to them would be of any benefit as i had witnessed this area for many years and my stance against the wts for hiding molestation of children is well known ,i thought, and they avoid me like the plague.. they were'nt familiar to me so i went up to them and introduced myself and quickly let them know who i was and what i am doing now as regards jw's.
they were a married couple middle aged been in for a long time and could relate to changes in the org very well to pre 1975 when i had first contact.
they pretty much suggested i was blinded to the truth ,when challenged on the royal commission into sex abuse they pointed to a case where they believed a victim they supposedly knew of in the jws was a liar ,so that's their case for the org -unbelievable.

Ive only seen a human cart, sitting along the beach around acin new Orleans holding a magazine against their abdomens casually while dring their cafe late and chatting animatedly. Even if I had nothing else on my agenda, they are were NOT approachable. Someday!
