Some out of town friends are coming to dinner on Friday and I need some suggestions on meal ideas. They are bringing their 7 year old son w/them. I am completely clueless as to what kids like and dislike. Rarely do I get to cook for children, so I thought it would be fun to make something...

I went to a pet store in the mall today. It is heartbreaking because the animals look sooo sad . I have never bought an animal from a pet store, we always go to the animal shelter. I was wondering though, if the animals at the pet store do not sell what happens to them? Are they put to...
