BP,
Did you cook a whole chicken? Has the stuffing been in the crock pot the entire time? I tried something similar awhile ago and it was a total waste...chicken and mush..LOL. Glad your dinner turned out well.
one chicken with stuffing and sweet red potatoes in the crock pot at 11:00 a.m. gonna take it out about 6:00 p.m. and serve it.
nothing better than slow cooked food...for seven hours.
going to serve it all up with red wine and a smile to my wife and daughter...well...maybe not the daughter, she's only thirteen.

the hall i went to had some guy from bethel who literally sounded like a 12-year-old giving the talk.
all i could think about was v's video about the memorial and how it's nothing but an infomercial for jehovah's witnesses.
i realized why the memorial is "so important" to jehovah's witnesses: it's their biggest recruiting day of the year!
I went to bed last night thinking, "man, how did I ever believe this crap?"
I went to the Memorial as well and walk away thinking the same thing.
i've often read here on jwd that a jw can't wish someone "good luck".
i've searched this forum and i've searched the wt library, but i have not been able to find anything.
can someone please explain why?
I've noticed that its common (at least in the areas I'm familiar with) for english-speaking latino witnesses to say "good luck" and use the word "lucky".
three simple but very powerful words .
my son and i working together last night on my jobs talked about this very subject.
i told him that although my witness mom was always affectionate , and tells me and my siblings she loves us , my elder father has only told me that he loves me once or twice , if that - my entire life.
Nope. Nothing. I knew\know that they did but they never said it.
for anyone that looks at this thread, could you write something either profound or simply interesting so as to make the reader see the truth about "the truth"?
?
If the JW truth was really the truth - why did it change so much? Truth cannot change - it can only remain what it is. One may expand upon it, but it cannot change.
Exactly. Especially if its divinely inspired.
she has been a faithful jw for over 50 years.
she was taught that the end was coming in the late 50's.. today she said that the terrible conditions in the world today prove that the end is near.
i told her that i. think that conditions in the world were a lot worse during ww1 and ww2 and it looks like things.
Ha...Sounds like my sister and thats all she talks about. Whatever I mention, it doesn't matter because the end is so close. Its gotten to the point that I almost don't want to talk with her. I try to be patient and talk around the nonsense.
yeah, sounds really 70's....... but i really wanna know!.
i'm an aries, march 24, so i'm on the cusp of pieces.. .
The Taurus Woman
A Taurus woman is stylish, well-groomed, and socially involved. Whether she turns her energies to domestic or professional aims, she is certain to give it all that she has. Taurus women are stubborn, practical, and budget-minded. They have the ability to balance family and career life without losing their emotional equilibrium. These women have their feet planted firmly on the ground.
I totally agree!
i'm considering reading this book and was wondering whether anyone from jwd has already read it and would like to share their thoughts on it.
being ever-the-skeptic, i'm intrigued by a philosophy that appears to embrace reality and the here-and-now, but i'm wary of the new-age-y-sounding-ness of it as well.
what do "believers" think of the book?
I'm reading it now and I also signed up for O's class. I am REALLY enjoying the book. If you're open-minded and still have issues with fading, I think the book helps you set outside of yourself and view things how they really are. To put it in action is a different story! I was skeptical at first as well but now I don't hesitate to recommend the book.
i know of quite a few that did , some have never been found out , are they asked by the elders before the wedding if they have done it ?
I know a number of couples that did the deed before they got married. The wedding would be on a saturday and then about a month later the couple is publicly reproved (and sometimes a few folks in the wedding party who knew but didn't say anything).
as of late i've been facinated about the books or gospels that didn't become part of the bible cannon.. i am reading it presently and i have learned how this gospel was found and the intricate work that has gone in to protecting and preserving the precious remnants of papyri that makes up this gospel of judus ishariot.
i was wondering if any one else is interested in this sort of thing?.
my son just bought me the gnostic bible too, and it is quite interesting.
I remember when it was featured on the cover of the local newspaper. We walked passed the newspaper while in service and everyone either just ignored it or said it was the work of the devil. I wondered why it wasn't part of the bible. I haven't read it yet but its only my lists. Thanks for the weblinks.
