    FLEAS!! Please help me and the little doggie monsters

    Frontline is just not effective against fleas anymore. The fleas seem to be immune to it here. I would switch to Advantage maybe Trifecta.

    AHRE Sale

    Hmmm $19.49 to ship 20 ounces of products. I'm going to have to think about this one. I'm sure it's a real PiTA to do this sale and I'm betting that plays into handling costs.

    God Awful service from Oregon Trails

    I had terrible service from them 6 years ago & never ordered from them again. Poor communication & very slow shipping, I only lived about 60 miles from her when she was in Oregon.

    concentrate emulsion?

    I use canola oil and water for dormant oil spray in the winter. It does separate but I shake the sprayer a lot. If you want the natural approach this link is a proven insect killer & repeller in my area. http://www.realfarmacy.com/home-brewed-garden-insect-spray/

    Fresh Yellow Tail

    I used to fish a lot out of Dana Wharf Sportfishing when I lived in SoCal. One trip everyone was catching yellowtail. I decided to fish the bottom for calico bass since I was 7 months pregnant and didn't want to be fighting a fish on my belly...I caught a yellowtail... They are really nailing...

    This is a candle???

    These candles were very popular in the 80's and 90's. There was a store franchise that was in malls all over the US that made them on site. I am not sure of the name, maybe Wicks and Wax? ETA: I think it was Wicks 'N Sticks

    Plug both ears while drinking a beverage of choice. It can be hard to do by yourself, but straws come in handy for this.

    BBW Bringing Back 90s Scents

    They do that for their semi annual sale. Do you have a BBW outlet near by? Most of those scents are available in their outlet stores.

    Pressure cooking

    Stock is really quick too, 30 mins natural release. It's much faster than simmering on the stove for hours.

    Pressure cooking

    If you want electric, the only one I know of that's 18/10 stainless is Instant Pot. All the others are tephlon coated aluminum. Fagor brand might have some stainless stove top ones.

    Pressure cooking

    I have an Instant Pot (electric pressure cooker). I love it for beer can chicken, rice, beans and hard boiled eggs! The egg shells just fall right off, even on same day laid fresh eggs. 6 mins on low pressure, natural release then put eggs into ice water until cool.
