You'll have to do that as the comments section doesn't automatically convert web addresses into links. Make sure you copy the whole address (from http, ending -chrome). I'm pretty certain this is the problem causing the annoying pop-ups :) <br /><br /><br />http://features.m.en.softonic.com/how-to-remove-toolbars-in-chromeJanettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-70575212450077540702014-03-13T16:59:09.324+00:002014-03-13T16:59:09.324+00:00For a long time, I attributed my husband's hea...For a long time, I attributed my husband's heart problems (congestive heart disease) to his excessive smoking and drinking of gin . . . until my sister-in-law told me their mother (non-smoker, non-drinker) had exactly the same condition. Apparently, it was genetic! And I doubt you could be drinking enough cider to cause problems -- how would you keep your knitting straight in that condition?Camhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06863241891948280552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-81235327685299644722014-03-13T16:10:37.691+00:002014-03-13T16:10:37.691+00:00It makes me sad, also, when people collect art for...It makes me sad, also, when people collect art for money rather than love. I never buy art I don't love, but had a colleague who bought some prints at our University's print sale (print students and invited faculty and staff make a series of 8x10" prints that go for sale at the annual holiday sale with the proceeds going to the print department, usually to help fund the students' trip to a print makers' exposition) for the sole reason that it was the only way he could afford a couple of the artists' works and they might be worth something one day. He didn't even like them, just liked their potential resale value. I couldn't understand it. <br /><br />Thank you for the review on the dutch gansey book as well. As of yesterday there was only one pattern from the book on ravelry and the sources I've seen just don't have that much information yet. I do love ganseys.hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10096332421127152188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-15301259325483159492014-03-13T15:14:34.711+00:002014-03-13T15:14:34.711+00:00Your sister's remark--surely she was just teas...Your sister's remark--surely she was just teasing you? Thanks for the interesting news about the painting. Perhaps you'll be able to have another go at buying it.

They were talking about beans and pulses. Jay Rayner (the host) canvassed opinion about tinned or dried: the panel was split. Jay suggested that tinned were no longer inferior, because dried beans/pulses are often from multiple sources (different farms & countries), which means that they never quite cook at the same time - unlike tinned which are from the same batch. In any case, he suggested that the snobbery about tinned pulses/beans was now misplaced.. <br /><br />Knitlasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10694849211711608460noreply@blogger.com
