If anyone is uncomfortable with having their posts here, I'd be very happy to edit and post however you like. Otherwise, I think that people who post here are most likely careful enough in how they post, that they should not be "known". And just because we post an idea, doesn't mean we *do* that particular one. Thanks for the concern for our safety.

YAY... It's back up!!! http://waltonfeed.com/old/old/index.html

You'd be SO delighted if you saw all the treasures we have here! PureCajunSunshine has tried to highlight some of the very best ones by having people "vote" on their favorites in the forum "The Best of MrsSurvival", but there are so many wonderful posts that we just don't see them all! In the last program we had, the "search" feature gradually deteriorated until it would't work well. *THIS* one goes all the way back. The biggest problem now is that our links don't work past the date we moved to this one, in March of 2009. *BUT*... if you do a search for the subject you want, you'll get everything.

Bump... GOOD POST!

I keep one always ready to use in my bathroom, on the back of the toilet. It's on a non-burnable surface, and it's where I most often need it, because our bathroom has no window. There are others I can bring out into other rooms.

I think I would much rather invest in a cheap oil lamp with a glass chimney instead of having an open flame around children and/or pets. Open flames can be *so* tempting, and in an emergency situation, we may have other things to attend to and not watch closely enough. I like to save my tuna cans for making fire starters... it can be hard to start a campfire outside. (Hmmm, need to find the link here... ) Or cut perfect biscuits or cookies with them.

**smacks head** Ohhhh, yeah... I forgot... One trick to keeping container soil moist is to use cheap baby diapers when you plant!! They contain those same crystals and are cheaper.
