i personally have a very distinct sense of style and fashion which many of the fellow jdubs frown upon.
recently, i was told by a few specially self righteous ones that i looked like a prostitute in a pair of white boots!
a pair of 3 inch heeled, just a little taller than the ankle boots, with skirt that came down to my knees and a black long sleeve shirt that came up to my collarbone.
There was a pioneer sister in our hall who would wear a skirt to the floor and long sleeve to the wrist, all the time! Something about Israelite women and showing no skin.
This sister wouldn’t work with my wife because she would wear shirts that showed off her arms in the heat of summer. It was pathetic.
just lately i've become weary of following recipes in books or online.
recently when on holiday in the lake district i wanted to make pasta with a tomato and cheese sauce but the only interesting cheese they had at the local store was a somerset brie.
i discovered when peeled of its skin and tossed in with tomatoes and pasta it melts beautifully and tasted amazing.
Sounds amazing Xan!! I also like to experiment with base recipes. I’ll get a recipe and then alter it to what I have around the house or just to our families personal taste.
Since the new addition, my wife has been very busy with her and other projects as well as the local MOMS Club so I’ve taken over the cooking in our house. We are also BLW or baby lead weaning so we try to make meals that Izabella can also eat. We do Italian, Mexican, and lots of dishes that feature chicken. My wife’s favorite was the homemade Cheeseburger Mac.
Been also experimenting with baking and make some incredible chocolate chip cookies and sugar cookies, much to the detriment of my waistline.

With regards to this idiots comment on “influencing ones thinking”, could not the very same thing be said of one who attends a meeting of Jehovah’s Witnesses?
i haven't been to a kh in decades, so i get the google alerts for jws and i got one featuring a local news channel in brooklyn covering the assembly being held in flatbush, brooklyn.
i'm sure that venue is where the circuit assemblies are usually held, keeping in mind it's summer and that's when the district assemblies are being held.
why are they acting like they're so strapped for cash and now holding district assemblies in circuit assemblies locations ?.
@ Done. I remember them using garbage cans on wheels and somehow hiding the bags of money at the bottom of them.
I think they used a small bag of papers to hide the bags of money underneath.

Yes Doubter because I hate the JW’s so much. 🙄
I saw what I saw and that’s it. What bothers me is that you seem to be a JW sympathizer. I can’t understand that.

@ doubter. At the time I was a full-in dedicated elder so what I saw was a bunch of empty seats in a large facility. Perhaps there were many roaming the halls, per usual at conventions.
I remember Pontiac Silver Dome and the endless steam of people roaming to God knows where. Probably the same there too. I was tucked away in the money room with the wife and a bunch of others.
Either here nor there, the smaller conventions are a lot easier to attend.

Doubter: Really? It didn’t think it was that well attended. I stand corrected.
I was in charge of the debit machines on the second level. But the times I did sit down in the regular seats it looked as if there were a lot of empty seats.

Yea I think they make more money by having several smaller conventions at facilities that are already paid off than a few very large ones. Most often it seemed that the larger venues were under utilized anyways.
Our last International that I attended at Ford Field in Detroit, Mi was pathetic. Sooo many empty seats. It was hard to miss.
I think too that all the older people can’t handle all the “too do” that comes with a large venue. It’s just way too hard on them physically.
this isn’t a usa question.
is your financial situation better or worse or pretty much the same?.
Better since last year mostly because I took a career risk that paid off.
if/when jw drop around to have a coffee or meal what do they talk about?
.
We had a slew of elduuurs come by a few months ago to “see the baby” and they talked about everything but “the truth”. They only once mentioned that we need to think about our eternal future and that of our child.
I told them that I am LOL!!!!
