Which Cell Phone To Use?

Motorola V3 RAZR (razer) Black Unlocked GSM Limited Edition Phone

I am currently using the RAZER, and have dropped it I don't know how many times, the window is cracked, and it's getting a little wonky to say the least. It still works but I think it may be time for a new one. Do I get another RAZER or a Blackberry? Do you really use all the features of a Blackberry, and is the increased rate for the service plan worth it. I have AT&T, the new (Cingular), and like the plan with the roll-over minutes, so I would like to keep that. Any recommendations on cell phones that are must haves that you love?

Trade A Night Out To Shelter A Child - Houston Bay Area

Would you forgo a night out to provide shelter, meals, clothing and other necessities to a child for one night? Just $45.00 will provide such comforts for a child escaping a home of violence. Would you help the mother who is removing the child from that awful place? Imagine if we all made an effort to forgo dinner out this weekend and donated that money to a woman and her child or children. For us, it would be one night without and for them it would be the binning of a safer life and a nights sleep free of fear. If it is $45 a day to house a women or child, imagine if we doubled or tripled that. So $135 would provide shelter for three days and so on...

Would you like to join in on this effort?

If so, please make your checks payable to: Resource and Crisis Center

C/O Funds Dept., Night Out Shelter A Child

P.O. Box 1545

Galveston, TX 77553

All donations are tax deductible and a receipt will be sent for tax purposes. For more information call 409-763-1441.

"Tastes Like" Biscuit Recipe from Major Restaurant

This recipe has been around for a very long time. Employee reveals secrets.

Serves/Makes: 8 | Difficulty Level: 2 | Ready In: < 30 minutes

Ingredients:

2 cups White Lily self rising flour
1/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup buttermilk
melted butter

Directions:
Working at Cracker Barrel, and making more biscuits than I care to count, I'm just wondering where the sugar and egg wash I have seen in recipes come into play. All we use is White Lily self rising flour, Buttermilk, and shortening. I cannot give you exact amounts, or anything else for risk of losing my job, but home testing comes to 2 cups flour, 1/3 cup shortening, and 2/3 cup buttermilk. We blend the flour and shortening together, then add in the buttermilk, mix for one minute (no smoothness and elasticity) then roll out and cut. I like to bake for 8 minutes at 450, and brush with melted butter when I pull them out of the oven. That's how I do it, and cannot say if that's how I also do it at work.

Possible Fire Hazard In Vacant Homes!

This is what happened to a candle that was close to a fireplace in a vacant home. I wouldn't have thought someone would turn the fireplace on in Houston in March or I wouldn't have placed candles there. I went back to take pictures, and this is what I found. The fireplace is turned on by a light switch, so I'm assuming whomever showed it, flipped on all the switches not knowing one was the fireplace. No telling how long it had been on, I thought the REA had lit it for an open house, but the wick is in tact. I soon realized it was from the heat from the fireplace not the burning of the candle.

To be safe I labeled the switch before I left and took out the candlesticks.

Just another lesson on possible fire hazards in staged vacant homes.

1/2 cup distilled white vinegar

1 teaspoon lemon juice

2 tablespoons eggs, beaten(see Notes, below)

1/3 cup water

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup corn syrup

3 tablespoons romano cheese, grated

2 tablespoons pectin, dry and unflavored(see Notes, below)

1 1/4 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced

1/4 teaspoon dried parsley

1 pinch dried oregano

Do You Have A Tomb?

A couple of days ago, I got a call from a man that said he'd found me on the internet and wondered if I had a "tomb". Excuse me? was my reply. He said a "tomb" very mater of factly. I said a "Tomb", he said yeah a "tomb" for dead people. Uhh...then it dawned on me "Easter" was this Sunday. I said, Oh, you mean for an Easter play, he said yeah! Like he'd hit the jackpot. I replied, No, sorry, I'm fresh out of tombs. I'm not sure what tombs and home staging have in common, but I get the funniest calls for the most unusual things.

When You click on these dots a picture of a person will appear with an address and the description of the crime he or she had committed. John Walsh from Americas Most Wanted developed the website. It's a way to alert your children, and a tool to keep your kids safe.

Dishelved & Broken In Vacant Staged Homes

I stopped by a property that I had staged to get some after photos, (since it got an offer after being staged for 3 days, and previously on the market for a year-Yeah!). When I walked in the front door, I noticed that a vase had been broken, and was all over the place. Ok, not that big of deal, things get broken, then I proceeded through the house and noticed all the throw pillows had been tossed around, and the bed was disheveled. I know they haven't had an open house, because it got an offer so fast. Nobody alerted me that something was broken and things were out of place, it makes you wonder why and who. It just reiterates the fact that we have to check on our staged properties frequently, especially as the season is picking up with more people coming through. This was no biggie, and I would hope no one would think I would leave a home in this condition after staging. If you haven't checked your properties in a couple of weeks...get out there and make sure they are the way you left them.

The Power Of Power Washing

With Spring here, so are the remains of winter, especially in the coastal areas. When there's rain, moisture, and humidity there's mold and mildew. Just one of the many improvements to make when selling your home or staying in your home is power washing. Power washing is becoming a yearly ritual it seems, and what a difference it makes. It not only looks cleaner, but is better for your health especially if your allergic to mold and mildew. The mold can be tracked into your home getting into your carpet, not something you want to have happen. You can pick up a power washer for as low as $70 on up. It's more of a time consuming thing than anything. If time's a problem, then hire it done, for a relatively low fee. Don't stop with your concrete, get your fence, house, foundation, patio furniture, rocks or stones around flowerbeds done too.
