I live in North Jersey now, but I grew up over the border, in Rockland County, NY. Do you still live in NJ?

Thank you all so much for your good wishes and ideas. Alexandra was so thrilled with the Little St. Nick idea. I'll keep you posted with what happens with that and especially with how TJ is doing. I told my cousin, "I always know I can count on BuffettNews! What a special group of people!"

My cousin's daughter, Alexandra, a high school senior, has been making a Get Well video for a boy in her town with Aplastic Anemia. Aplastic anemia is a disorder in which the bone marrow greatly decreases or stops production of blood cells. Once considered nearly always fatal, aplastic anemia has a ...

I like Mrs. T's!
I never heard of the other two, but I am going to look for them.
I'm half Ukrainian, and we eat them also. But we call them pyrohys or varenyky.
I like the cheese and potato best. With sour cream.

Re: 2011 SHOPPING REPORT

I know stores have to stay ahead of the season, but it's gotten so that you can't find a coat after November or a bathing suit after May! And when they start playing Christmas music with the Columbus Day sales, I think it's gone too far!

I was at a Cracker Barrel in NC on January 3rd. I thought I might pick up a couple of NC Christmas or winter items to bring back up to NJ. Besides the fact that most everything was made overseas, not in NC, they only had a few winter items. They already had all the Easter stuff out! They skipped rig...

Re: Freaky 2011 Numbers

It is freaky at first, but all you're really doing is adding your birth year plus your age to get this year (well, 111 instead of 2011; you're not using all four digits of your birth year or this year). Put another way, if you took 2011 and subtracted your birth year (for me, 1951) you will get how ...
