I think she meant P & G which is Procter and Gamble. They send out samples sometimes. I got some yesterday. Some shampoo and Gillette body wash that I'm giving to my brother. I imagine you can get samples in the US.

YEs I was so excited to get money in the mail that I did a typo. P&G is what I ment. They have a US site too.

OK so not much today. Thanks for the new words, I rep'ed where I could.
Tody is FRIDAY!!!!!

I so want to go back to bed!

Did anyone watch the show on last night called BIO DAD? Seems that there are hundreds of kids out there from the same guy and some of his friends. Back in the 40/50 in England his wife was artificially inseminating women in England. They burnt all the records when she retiered and now this guy wants to find his BIO dad. Anyway I thought it was interesting and brings up the question - "If he provided the sperm for hundreds of women how many of those kids could be Married to half sibblings??" The guy in that made the film did find quite a few of his half sibblings which is sort of neat I guess.

Off to work I go. BBL

Can anyone recommend a good restaurant around downtown or Yorkdale Mall area of Toronto? I am heading there for a weekend (by myself! Yippee!) to do a malaria refresher course at Michener and was hoping to try something different. I don't get to T.O. very often and don't know some good spots to go. And I may be able to meet a friend, whom I haven't seen in years, for dinner.

Sorry, I somehow missed this.

What sort of food are you thinking of? Are you looking for cheap, elegant, ethnic? Also, whereabouts downtown do you prefer? & are you looking for something to do while downtown? If it's Yorkville you're thinking of (Yorkdale is off of the 401), be prepared to mortgage your home (just joking).

If you want a decent meal at a not-bad price, Le Bifteque is good (sorta like Keg, but better meal). It's in the Sheraton Centre, across from City Hall. Lots of pubs around, which serve decent food. If you're looking for Chinese/Vietnamese/Korean, there are little (& I mean little) restaurants along Dundas, east of Spadina, or right on Spadina.

There was a kerfuffle recently, where a rat was found in a restaurant (sitting in the front window after hours, freaking out tourists - hey, rodents have to eat too! ), so the health dept has really cracked down, so they're fairly safe.

Let me know what you're thinking of, & I'll ask my friend who frequents the restaurants (she works downtown & knows all the hotspots - I used to, but all my favourites from 10yrs ago have changed).

Have fun!

RTlady,

I know some potato recipes if you still looking for some. Potato Latkes - potato pancake of sorts - very ez. There's a few others I could share too, if interested? Ever try mixing Kraft Italian dressing with parmesan cheese and shaking potatoes like shake n bake in it? Roast in oven on fairy high heat - not bad for a change. PM me if still looking, I know more recipes too.

Thanks for the recipe Mbgurl..... I think I'm going to try that one tomorrow night!

[Mbgurl]

there is a new swagcode if anyone that is here is doing them

Where? Swagcodes are in assorted places! How come you didn't share the code or at least where to look along with your announcement? Codes are often good for an hour or two. Sorry, don't mean to be picky, jes saying.

Maybe next time pretty please? If we're too late then we're too late noticing it posted here but at least sometimes a few might get a chance to see it in here and enter it at Swagbucks in time?

I will try do the same when I come across one, since this thread is such a mixed bag anyway?

2 days ago I did a couple searches and I got a message saying I won 2 swagbucks - but no confirmation e-mail. An hour later I did some more, got a message saying I won 1 swagbuck and got the e-mail so my account was only credited by 1.
I'm never home during the day to get the extra words and unless I really need to know about something I don't do a lot of searches.

Here is how I do mine. It can be eaten for breakfast or dinner

Peel and dice potatoes into decent sizes. Place in a bowl and microwave for about 2.30min each potato.
Olive oil in a pan and heat. Add lots of chopped garlic and hot peppers (if you like em). Add the potatoes in the pan and sautee. At this point the potatoes are cooked you are just browning them. Add chopped coriander or parsley or both and salt and pepper to taste. You can also add paprika (I also add the spicy one).
That's it. Real simple and amazingly good. If you have leftovers from it, add some eggs and scramble it up the next day for breakfast

ohhhhh yummmmmy sendign myself a pm if i can on that one...
