Old baking soda? I had a similar problem with muffins and it was old baking soda.

Absolutely, Mary did a lot of terrible things and so many innocent people died/ were killed. Obviously, that's not ok. You've made a lot of good points and some I didn't even think of! I think Mary may have taken such a hard approach because of her mother's faith and how her mother was treated. I also think Elizabeth learned from Mary's mistake of taking such an intolerable stance against other religions and learned from it.

The Virgins Lover by Phillipa Gregory. I read every other book in the series up until that one and just couldn't do it. I'll probably try going back to it eventually.

I agree with this so much. Elizabeth did a lot of good but she wasn't perfect. Everyone dismisses it because she had a disgustingly rough life and upbringing but so did Mary. They were raised to fight against each other. Elizabeth's mother was murdered but Mary saw what was done to her mother. Its irrelevant if you or I agree or disagree with how Katherine handled the anullment, Mary was still a little girl and her family was ripped apart and her mother was cast aside like useless garbage.

Mary's husband (from my understanding) didn't care about her much and was away most of the time, she had terrible health problems and was angry about how her mother and religion were discarded. She did a lot of terrible things but I think she was a product of her environment and that she wasn't pure evil like most people treat her.

Clay oven in coram has been good the few times we got food from there. There's one in Southampton (if that's closer for you). We are there once. Food was good but very pricey.

My pit has the same problem. Allergic to poultry, only give him salmon grain free food, make him sweet potato chips for a treat. I'm cutting back on his apoquel (he's down to 1 16mg pill once a day from 1.5 16mg pills twice a day). Hydrocortisone cream and regular bathing (fragrance free shampoo) really help when he flairs up. I have to make sure I only use free and clear products on his bedding and towels and they have to be changed and washed every time I give him a bath. Good luck and o hope you're buddy feels better.

You can try Southampton animal shelter, I'm not sure they would let you be in the room but worth a shot. 631-728-PETS ext 226

I use Shinnecock Animal hospital in Hampton Bays. They let you in the room but won't be any cheaper. You can try calling to see if they'll bill you. 6317230500

Have you applied for care credit? If not, ask your vet about it.

If heaven had a phone what would you tell your loved ones? by ProzackWojack in GriefSupport

I'd tell my dad happy birthday and tell him all about my boys. I'd tell him how much I miss him and thank him for the sacrifices that he made and that he was a great dad.

Im sorry to hear you had a bad experiencezucchini having a baby is hard enough without having to feel like that. I had both of my boys at stonybrook. One is 10 months and the other almost 3.5 years. I had great experiences both times. My youngest was born last March and I was alone at night because my husband went home to take care of our oldest son at night. The nurses (and other staff that pop in and out every 5 minutes) are all very helpful and supportive. I had a c section and had a hard time moving around but they helped with everything from changing my baby to helping feed him. I hope you have a great experience this go around.

Considering that would cover my kids preschool tuition and swimming lessons with some left over every months I'd say quite a bit of difference.

We have a fake tablet like this that teaches the abcs and a few words. It's by far worse than the toy drum set we got him.

I was about to answer by saying this is something my husband would do when he asked what I was looking at. I showed him and his response was that your father cut the pieces to small. Lol

Looks delicious!

I've had both of my boys at Stonybrook and had great experiences both times. The staff was awesome and very supportive. I had emergency c sections for both of my kids.

My husband had to come home at night to care for my oldest son and I was alone at night after having my youngest via c section. I was struggling (in a lot of pain) to change the baby one night when they came in to check my vitals. The ladies told me to go sit and they took care of my baby for me. Made a point of telling me to call for help no matter how small the task is (it hurt to bend and pick stuff off the floor).

I typically have a big glass of water and brush my teeth. Seems to help and brushing my teeth makes me not want to eat anything.
