i am baking right now.
this can be frustrating and satisfying at the same time.
for example, i have never made meringue cookies before.
Finally-free hi,
I'm dividing my time between the computer and the toilet. It's probably because of all the chips and salsa...
I hope I'm ok tomorrow. I'm supposed to go to an East Indian buffet with some friends.
That will be your second mistake! lol

this is my 2nd christmas after leaving the jw's.
last year there was drama surrounding the time and i never really focused on it.
this year is differant and i'm having a hard time with it.
Jen hello,
So much good advice, and these people really know what they're talking about!
Just on the subject of MEN....when you are a single JW woman you have to wait around trying to find 'a needle in a haystack'...if you get my drift, a handful of men so few and far between you might as well forget it!
But now as regular Single Woman your world just got way bigger. A metamorphosis has occurred. You shed your cocoon and have become a beautiful butterfly ...free at last, to fly where you decide. Now you may decide to just stick to Christian men, but there's a lot of them! Good luck(love saying that for some reason!)

Looking forward to roasting a big fat stuffed turkey till all browned and yummy. Mashed potatoes and turkey gravy, omg.
West coast stuffing:
12 cups bread crumbs
2 lrge onions chopped
2 cps chopped celery
1 cp chopped parsley
Place in lge bowl, mix, - add 3 tble spoons sage, 2 tble spoons poultry seas. mix place in fridge overnite.
Xmas day, chop giblets(gizzard,heart,liver-neck& a bit of pork sausage) cover with water in pot, add pinch salt/pepper, 1 cp chop onion, 2 tbls poultry seasoning, simmer for an hour.
Add all this to the bread crumb mixture, stuff the bird, bake in hot oven for 1/2hr,turn heat to 350 degrees, roast till the legs are almost free. (depending on size 3-5 hrs)
After all this, for me, what I'm really after is the stuffing and the mashed spuds with turkey gravy!!!
Hard to get my mouth around this but .... merry christmas everyone,
oh yeah, .. and FloridaPerry you could open a door for me anytime, I don't startle easily.

every year the wtbts asks a few select top elders / cos to "rate" the brothers in their circuit to see if they qualify to give talks on district conventions.
it would seem that the society are concerned that some brothers are being a bit faddy in shaving their heads.

Billyboy hi,
Don't you think they forgot to add the most important qualification .......Does the Brother understand completely... the theocratic warfare 'doctrine'!!!

what im about to post is the exact words from the co during the last talk of the most recent special assembly day.
even though im out i still try to keep up with what is being said just cause i find it interesting, and alot of stuff i find funny, but this stuff is starting to get scary, and i fear for my friends who are still in.
here are the exact words:.
Momma, thanks for this....
Toward the end of the talk Williams said that,.. this kingdom will go on and some of you, right here, will live and go right thru to the paradise earth... some may die.
After talking about how useless higher education was etc, he then stated that Jehovah will take care of you! (paraphrasing)
Gee, I guess that's what all those elderly financially strapped witnesses were told too!
Quite difficult to listen to, so much emotional whipping.

i came across this article and wonder how soon until suit is filed against wts and/or elders involved in jc's?.
the short of it: a high school reported a rape that occured in the school.
instead of calling the police (or even the campus police), the school officials had the girl write a report to detail what happened.
AudeSapere,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Another case of CYA I suppose! Imagine!
When I think that may have been my daughter ... imagine. What about the risk of pregnancy, STD's, was that idiot boy infected with aids? And she was made to sit there!!!! in shock!
If I were the parent ... somebody's ass would be sued!
Relating this to the danger and lack of concern for our children in the 'cult'...it's about time for the lid to blow off and expose just what is going on.
This internet has to be the 'event' that will wake up the brain washed JW's.
Can't believe in years past I never heard about jw child abuse ... or if I did, was I just walking around with my hands over my ears!

in my "study," we have encountered the matter of whether or not jesus' physical body rose from the dead.
i brought up a couple of scriptures that seem to indicate physical (john 2:18-22 and john 10:17,18).
the jw's i am "studying" with explained how, although those verses may appear to indicate physical, jesus couldn't have meant that because if he physically rose from the dead, he would have taken back the ransom.. now that i know the wt reasoning on this, can someone point me to another source, link, book, article, etc.
InterestedOne hello,
1Tim 2:5 -"For here is one God, and one mediator between God and men,
a man, Christ Jesus."
