- Hiroshima Mon Amour, Les Quatre cent coups, Les Amants were tremendously important events. These days, because of television and the incredible saturation of images, I'm not sure this would happen any more. Cinema has become - I don't want to say obsolete, but somewhat marginal. We live in a culture of the disposable. A film can be an event, be huge at the box office, win all kinds of awards, and then in a couple of years be pretty much forgotten.

And then, once you've found that, you must have a good bed: for making love. And a good kitchen table – also for making love, and for eating."
- Character is like a tree and reputation its shadow. The shadow is what we think it is and the tree is the real thing.
- Without good time management the plan fails and you end up not getting anything done. You have to know what you want to do, how much time you've got to do it and then sit down and work out the best way to do it. It's all about sacrifice. Once you have the routine it's pretty easy to stick to it. As long as you take the time to plan how things are going to work it's all good. Without that planning you'll be in a mess.
- "The only exercise I get these days is walking behind the coffins of my friends who take exercise."
- Mhairi Black said in her maiden speech in the House of Commons: "Tony Benn once said that in politics there are weathercocks and signposts. Weathercocks will spin in whatever direction the wind of public opinion may blow them, no matter what principle they have to compromise. And then there are signposts, which stand true and tall and principled. They point in one direction and they say, "This is the way to a better society and it is my job to convince you why." Tony Benn was right when he said that the only people worth remembering in politics are those who are signposts."

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today!
I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "interposition" and "nullification" -- one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.
I have a dream today!
I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together."

- Gerald Kaufman has crawled so far up the backside of NATO that only the soles of his feet are visible.
- "I'm fond of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. They are kind of the John and Paul of the global development stage, in my opinion.
"But the point is, Lennon and McCartney changed my interior world - Blair and Brown can change the real world."
- "My optimism rests on my belief in the infinite possibilities of the individual to develop benevolence ... in a gentle way you can shake the world."
- I'm not a rearview mirror person. I only go forward. I've worked with some extraordinary people and loved it. Some of them have left this earth. That makes me sad but all the more appreciative.
- The lesson I've learned are you've always got to be proud of what you've done and enjoy what you're doing rather than fixate on what might be in the future.
- "Celebrity is a lot like ice cream, you know, it melts and then you've got to live with yourself."
- From an interview with Scott Davidson of Regeneration: "Take a project like Band Aid for instance. Many people worked very hard for Band Aid, and OK, it raised millions of pounds, but then more money was being taken off the Overseas Aid Budget by the Conservatives. Political action is the way of securing change. If you do not engage in political parties you are not actually engaging in political decisions. You may think you are, but you're not.
"It's a very easy line - and the press love it - that politicians are in it for themselves, all the parties are the same, etc. And then, of course, single issue politics appears to be pristine idealism, but a lot of key political decisions that dramatically affect these groups are taken by political parties.
"It is also the danger with some groups like the Green Party - they end up with policies which are just out to lunch and do not help the causes they think they are helping."
- "You'll like this, not a lot, but you'll like it." was Paul Daniels's catchphrase.
- How do you stop a polite conversation about politics, even with your nearest and dearest, descending into a slanging match?
The only failsafe answer of course is not to talk about politics at all.

Until now, I have always removed my makeup by simply washing my face and using makeup removing wipes such as the Neutrogena Facial Wipes or MAC wipes, and even though I still like using them when it comes to traveling or for a quick fix or pick me up, I really like how makeup removers thoroughly cleans your face or your eye makeup without leaving smudges or a little eyeliner or mascara left over.
I didn't like the Oil-Free Neutrogena makeup remover, as much as it says "oil-free", it's not, you can totally see the oil through the bottle and it left my face feeling all greasy. I am really glad I found these two, they work for me and I really don't see me trying anything else ever again!
I recently ordered Scinic Lip & Eye Makeup Remover from Sasa.com, it was only $8.20 so I figured id try it out, I admit I was skeptical at first because it had oils such as olive and macadamia, and I usually hate makeup removers with oil due to the greasy yucky feeling afterwards, but I wanted a makeup remover to try and the design of the bottle actually appealed to me.
I tried it for the first time a few nights ago and I LOVE IT! Even though it's oily at first, it's not OVERLY oily to where you have to wash your face right after (at least in my opinion), and when it dries, it just moisturizes your skin at the same time (think the oil cleansing method). The innovating pump is mess-free which makes it a breeze to take off your makeup; simply use a cotton ball or a cotton wipe and push down on the pump to release the liquid, and remove like normal.
I recently was using the Mandom Beauty Cleansing Express Sebum Makeup Remover which I also love because it seriously FEELS like water, but it can remove makeup like no other! No joke, there is NO OILY RESIDUE at all with the Mandom Makeup remover (Pink and Anne use and love this as well!) They have two or three different kinds I believe (I forgot what the others were), but I got the Sebum one for those with acne or oily skin, and I just got it to prevent any oily build up as I figured this one had no oils in it and help prevent acne. I got it from a Japanese store called "Ohayo", they also have a website Ohayousa.com, I will write about this store in an upcoming post, but they sell A LOT of Japanese products, however, it's A LOT pricier than Sasa.com, but unfortunately I don't think they sell this on Sasa.com (I checked and didn't find it), but you can pretty much find it I am sure in Japanese or Korean beauty stores, markets, etc. I got it for $10 but the website is selling it for $13.99.
So which one do I like better? I actually like to switch them around and use them intermittently. I like the Mandom one when it comes to cleaning up makeup mistakes or if I am starting over on a FOTD because it's like water, so it doesn't leave me with ANY oily residue- it's AMAZING. I also like to use it to clean up smudges of eyeliner left around my eyes after I get out of the shower. I like the Scinic one when it comes to hard-to-remove makeup like the Mehron Aqua Palettes, the MAC Longwear Lip Colors that are super hard to remove, or to painlessly remove false eyelashes. Makeup removal is quick and easy with BOTH of them.
Also, in case you are wondering what the quilted pads are that I used, it's the Swisspers Quilted Cotton Squares from Wal-Mart. I love them because they have more surface area to work with (rather than using 10 cotton balls in one sitting!), and also because it doesn't shed like cotton balls do, which makes it great for removing eye makeup and nail polish so the hairs don't get all over the place.
Removes everything! Eyes, face, lips!

I love using the quilted cotton pads too ! Like you said one just had to get the remover all over it all and place it on the eye. No tugging or stretching the ball to cover the whole eye.
Must try the Mandom remover ! Thanks for the reviews

Great review!
I want to try the Scinic one!

Ooh I definitely need to try this out. I am pretty sure that on yummiebitez's blogspot, she mentioned you could get it from ohayousa.com but I don't know what it's like to order from there or what the price is

I use the makeup removing wipes, too--and was bothered by there always being a little smudge of eyeliner or mascara that wouldn't quite come off!
I tried the neutrogena oil-free remover, as well, and I HATE it! It does a really subpar job of what its supposed to do.
I'm going to have to order one of these removers--I ADORE Japanese cosmetics, when we were visiting in Tokyo I was buying all sorts of pretty Shiseido cosmetics at a nice discount due to them being a little cheaper (I think they have a drugstore line because that's what I bought, but either way its seriously nice makeup)& the exchange rate.
BTW, LOVE your blog, I've been reading for a while, but I don't think I've commented before. Thanks for all the amazing tips and reviews! <3

I've been using the Mandom cleanser since Anne/Pink mentioned them in their blogs, and I love using it! It works so much better than the makeup remover I was using before, and as much as I like the oil cleansing method, some nights I just want to get my makeup off and go to bed. The only thing I don't like is the pump - that first pump from the bottle can cover some serious distance! The green soft makeup remover looks interesting - thanks for the reviews!

Do you have to the shake the bottle? I have the target brand of this "oil free" make up remover and you can clearly see the oil and water difference!

Thank you for the shot of the ingredients label, you know I'd be Googling for it!
The dispenser for the Green Soft is really cool. I use straight up EVOO for the eye makeup in a squeeze bottle and never get just the right amount out.
Thanks for the info on the Swisspers as well. I HATE using cotton balls for anything. They are such a waste of product - and all the cotton fibers across your face.

I recently picked up 2 Mandom cleansing lotions, and they're great! I wish they came packed in the type of bottle as the Scinic one, though. Do you know if you can get those types of empty bottles anywhere?

thank you for the review. i really want to order the Mandom remover because i dont think i can find it in boston where i live. anyways, i saw your recommendation on the matte mousse foundation from maybelline, i was just wondering if it gave you a good coverage and does it cause you breakout? i got 2 for a price of 1 today at rite aid but still anxious to try. hihih....thank you for all the info you've shared. i greatly appreciate them

Are either of them the "no wash off" kind? That's why I use the Neutrogena towelettes - I hate washing off this stuff; there's always some mascara left, and they I have to wash again!

Hey Nessa,
I also lovee the Mandom as well! But lately it's been making my eyelashes shed off when I use it to remove my eye make up/liner (the fluidline). So let me know if it does anything weird like that to you! But over all I like using it for my face :)

I love to use DHC Deep Cleansing Oil a lot because it totally does the job. But Scinic Lip & Eye Makeup Remover seems pretty good too, and seems the price is whole lot cheaper. I am convinced, will give a try once I use up to the DHC one.

Olive oil works fine, cheap and doesn't sting.

Hi Vanessa,
I'm a new makeup fanatic and have been reading your blog religiously for the past 3 months and I absoloutly LOVE IT!. You have taught and inspired me so much. I love to try new products and I cant seem to get my hands on the Mandom express sebum. I checked out ohayousa and webichi and they want $35-$50 just for shipping. I live in Kona, hawaii and i know that standard shipping shouldn't charge that much. If there is ever a time when you have a couple extra bottles, PLEASE think of me and I will buy them from you.:) Thank you so much for being such an inspiration. I will definetely keep in touch..!

Hi Alana! Thank you! Leave me your contact info or email me and I will let you know!

Cargill is the largest importer of palm oil into the U.S. and one of the largest traders of controversial palm oil in the world.
Many of us live thousands of miles away from Brazil, Indonesia and the Congo Basin, where the last stands of tropical rainforests still exist. It's easy to forget that each breath we take is connecting us to those remote ecosystems, and that we should care as much about their survival as our own.
Did you know that some of the books you buy could be contributing to Indonesian rainforest destruction? RAN's new Rainforest-Safe Kids' Books pocket guide ranks eleven of the nation's largest children's book publishers for their commitments to protect Indonesia's rainforests and the environment.
Calculating the Real Carbon Footprint of APP's Paper: APP's 2006 total emissions were higher than those of 165 countries around the world.
General Mills has a comprehensive palm oil policy that puts them at the front of the pack when it comes to American companies addressing the problems with palm oil.
Logging companies APP and APRIL are razing Indonesian rainforests and replacing them with plantations to make cheap paper. U.S. book publishers are using this paper to make books for American children.
Operations at Cargill plantations are actively burning and clearing rainforests, causing conflict with local communities, destroying peatlands and operating in violation of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil's (RSPO) Principles and Criteria and outside of Indonesian law.

Sunday Sound Out
OK, so maybe he prima ballerina thing is a slight exaggeration considering the fact that I tripped at Lexi's football game Saturday, falling hard on my knee. I was holding my camera and didn't want to break it so I didn't brace my fall. On the bright side, I saved the camera. On the downside, I broke my kneecap instead. People saw me fall so, of course, I jumped up and acted all cool like it was no big deal. Then I hobbled off and cried. Yep, I'm the classiest person I know.
OK, here are the random winners of the $25 My Sonic giftcards and the $25 DonorsChoose.org giftcards.
Queen of pink in a house of blue said...
oh, i love the lemon berry slush! YUMMY!i agree the ice is GREAT! after surgery once, i couldn't eat anything, but could have water...but had to sip it or chew ice. i had hubby go get 2 route 44 cups of ICE from sonic! they probably thought he was silly, but i didn't care! heehee
sandyn said...
We just got sonic in Minnesota! yea!! i am really digging the cherry lime aid. heck, i didnt know it came in diet!! good to know! nice to know we can help out the teachers.
Congratulations! Email me with your shipping address! And remember to stop by Sonic now through Oct. 1, get any drink and then go to LimeadesForLearning.com to help fund a teacher's project!
So, here are the answers to this week's questions.
White flooring for a boys room? Really?? Are that optimistic that it can stay that way? Of course it is way better than the wood-like flooring. Reminds me of the Wagon Queen Family Truckster
Yeah, but it's industrial strength tile. Marks wipe right up! And gotta love anyone who can quote Vacation!
I love Clayton's stick figure picture. Is that a penis I see hanging down between the legs?!
Uhh, yeah. He has no hands, feet, or hair, but he made sure to include that part. I'm so proud. :::sniff sniff:::
Your house looks too clean and organized compared to normal. Did you get snobby on us and hire a housekeeper? Because a house with kids is supposed to have crap all over the floor and clutter all over the furniture.
LOL!!! A housekeeper! LOL, that's a good one! Did you not see the pictures of all the crap (including a sock stuck to the wall!) behind the bunk beds?
SSO for you. Brooklyn no longer looks like a toddler! I couldn't believe how much the little girl she has looked in the past few pictures. But in the Mickey Mouse pants it looks like Brooklyn has finally decided to train and is out of diapers. Has your life become diaper free for the first time in 15 years? Yes! Did I forget to write about that? The beginning of this summer, she just woke up one day and said she wanted to wear underwear and that was that. I do still put a pull-up on her at night just in case, but more often than not, she wakes up dry. It's the end of an era!
PS. I also HATE throwing up. I'm like Jerry Seinfeld, always striving for the longest "non-vomit streak".
Until the black and white cookie, that is.
You were lucky! When my husband goes for his echo, because of his family history, they use sandpaper to get rid of the hair in certain spots on his chest for the "stickers". LOL! So he has hairless spots on his chest still.
I guess I forgot to mention that part. The doctor had to first rub me down with alcohol, then he used some sort of sandpaper on me as well (I swear I don't have a hairy chest!) before he had to lift my boobs out of the way to apply the stickers. Yeah, that was fun. What do you do in a situation like that? Where do you look? You can't make eye contact because that would just be weird. So you stare at some spot above the doctor's head and pretend he's not putting stickers on your boobs and say something nonchalant like, "So, it's pretty nice weather we're having, huh?" Or maybe you just start babbling like an idiot and say things like, "So, I had a goldfish when I was two. I named him Goldygold. You know, because he was gold. Yep, that was 37 years ago. I have no idea why that just popped into my head. Do you like popcorn? I got to swim with dolphins a couple years ago..." Not that this happened to me or anything. Just sayin'...
Will you be getting your gall bladder checked??
Yes. After I have sufficiently procrastinated long enough.
So Dawn,If you type in "ketchup, Italian dressing and half an onion" into Kraft's web site, will you get a recipe? Just asking.
No, you won't which is why, when you're down to ketchup, Italian dressing and half an onion, it's time to go to the grocery store!
So if you put in Brooklyn's favorites, ketchup, chocolate syrup, and...maybe air?...what should you make for dinner?
That's the beauty of Brooklyn's diet - I don't have to cook!
Hey Dawn! Wondering if you asked them about the artificial dyes they use in their foods or if any other ladies brought it up? I think I read that one of your sons helps control his ADHD via diet, just wondering if anyone asked them about some natural alternatives and dye free products? I would LOVE to be able to give my son Kraft mac n chz but I can't due to the use of food dye in it (we are food dye free here)! I would love it if they would offer some dye free alternatives to some of our favorite products they make! Thanks!
We go back and forth with the all natural diet. Although I like to stick to it, the truth is that it's expensive to buy natural products without all the additives and sometimes our budget just doesn't allow for that.
Kraft does make a product line called Back to Nature. They have cookies, crackers, juice, macaroni & cheese dinners, etc. all without artificial ingredients. And you can search the nutrition information on other Kraft products HERE.
Speaking of Kraft, I have a box FULL of Kraft yumminess to give away to one lucky reader. Take a look at the above picture or visit Kraft's website HERE, then leave me a comment with your favorite Kraft product(s) and/or your favorite Kraft recipe. I'll choose a random winner on Wednesday, September 23. Contest open to US residents.
Oh yeah! And check out my friend, Patti Hill's website HERE! She's got a contest for pet lovers and you can win $100 Petco gift card!

You want me to choose my favorite kraft product? How is that possible? Mac & Cheese is great and canbe the staple of any unhealthy diet! I do add veggies to it and my kids eat it, great way to sneak in some peas and carrots. :)
- September 20, 2009 at 8:05 PM
- jamie said...
I def. enjoy the Mac and Cheese! Actually, I recieved a case of it for my 21st birthday....hmmmmm......I don't think I have a problem! :)
- September 20, 2009 at 8:05 PM
My family loves Kraft products! We love the Kraft mac & cheese! With 4 kids this is our favorite recipe from kraft. So good! (my kids help make this)
Cheesy Volcano Meatballs
1. PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Mix meat, cracker crumbs, Parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup of the spaghetti sauce in medium bowl.
2. SHAPE into twelve meatballs, using about 2 Tbsp. meat mixture for each.
3. PLACE 2 inches apart, in shallow baking pan sprayed with cooking spray. Press 1 cheese cube deeply into center of each meatball.
4. BAKE 14 min. or until meatballs are cooked through (160°F). Meanwhile, microwave remaining 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce in small microwaveable bowl on HIGH 30 sec. or until heated through (adult assisted).
5. WASH UP. Making meatballs is hands-on work, so put food safety at the top of your to-do list. Keep things clean by washing your hands before and after this recipe.

OH man I would LOVE to have all those goodies. I have a 9 month old we are starting on table food and I see lots of good stuff to try with her. But as far as my favs- you just can't be a good ole oreo cookie any way you want to serve it up!!!
- September 20, 2009 at 8:16 PM
- pednurse said...
The shells & cheese are my favorite! My kids favorite is Oreos (of course!) followed by the traditional mac & cheese. Occasionally I mix low-fat browned ground beef into it for a yummy change-up.

How could anyone's favorite Kraft product be anything BUT Kraft Mac N Cheese!?!?! The powder, of course!!!
- September 20, 2009 at 8:21 PM
- Melissa said...
I think I could eat a whole box in one sitting. I can only buy them once every few months, because between my husband and I they don't last.
- September 20, 2009 at 8:23 PM
No question about it - Oreos!
- September 20, 2009 at 8:23 PM
- pastrytiff said...
Favorite Kraft product?? Can I take the kids go to answer and just say everything??? OH - and is all the food missing from my house right now because you took it for that pic (of did the bottomless pits just eat it all again - I swear I went grocery shopping the other day
- September 20, 2009 at 8:24 PM
Love the Mac but love the dressings too. Love the cookies...where would we be with no Kraft?
- September 20, 2009 at 8:25 PM

I LOVE Kraftfoods.com !
The Food and Family magazine is also wonderful.
There are a TON of recipes, and I've found some great ideas that have become favorites.
My favorite Kraft product: Fat Free Ranch....it actually tastes like ranch!
- September 20, 2009 at 8:33 PM
- Judith said...
Oh, Oh, I'd use them all. My very favorite is the Golden Oreos. Although my 3 preschoolers request the Mac N Cheese everyday.
- September 20, 2009 at 8:38 PM
- Rikki said...
Oreos are my favorite of course!
- September 20, 2009 at 8:38 PM
- lbugsh2 said...
Hmm a favorite I think I have to go with double stuffed oreo's. Which might be how I currently have added a few pounds.
- September 20, 2009 at 8:45 PM
low fat wheat thins is my favorite. They help with the crunch cravings and help me to stick to my diet. But ask my kids and it's the mac and cheese. We have velvetta and shells in the quick cook cup and of course the box kind.
- September 20, 2009 at 8:54 PM
- Jennifer in Wisconsin said...
Yeah I got listed for the SSO (Wagon Queen Family Truckster reference). HMMMM..... favorite Kraft recipe for my kids would be anything that includes either Mac & Cheese or grated Parm. Always looks like it just snowed indoors on Parm cheese nights. My favorite Kraft product is fudge covered oreos that come out at the holidays. I hide the box so they are ALL MINE!!!!
- September 20, 2009 at 8:55 PM
- Krista said...
I'm gonna have to go with Oreos and mac n' cheese. Is it bad if that's all you eat for dinner? hah
- September 20, 2009 at 8:57 PM
I have to say that I am generally happy with all of Kraft's products, but my favorite is probably Crystal Light. We drink alot of it here!

First, may I say OUCH? I mean, really broke the knee? I'm so sorry. I suffer from the same amount of grace that you do. Geeze.
Okay, now I'm laughing. Apparently there were Oreos in the Kraft picture, but I went straight for the Crackerfuls (Four cheese, please.) I'm not a fan of Oreos, but my daughter would eat them exclusively for every meal until they would be gone. Actually, I'm more of a Chips Ahoy! girl, but I would love, love anything in the magical box. Packin' a school lunch. Anything helps!
Feel better soon!

Oreos! They are the best meal for a breast feeding mama on the go!
- September 20, 2009 at 9:05 PM
- Amie (of Amie and Brad) said...
Definitely the mac and cheese. We also use their shredded cheeses. What can I say, dinner in our house doesn't fly without cheese.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:12 PM
I am sorry but nothing can top Kraft Macaroni & Cheese. Nothing. Ever.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:21 PM
- Shelley said...
Yep, gotta be the Oreos.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:25 PM
We all LOVE, LOVE, LOVE all Kraft Products!

- Kim Martinez said...
I bought the Oreo sticks recently and they were pretty good. The best part was that my husband didn't like them; more for me! Did I mention that I'm 9 months pregnant and anything with chocolate sounds pretty good.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:30 PM

Fudge-covered mint oreos. Mmmmm...or Velveeta.

My youngest child is nicknamed Mac, and as he refuses to answer to his full name, Mac he will remain. When he turned 4, we worked SO hard to get him to recognize, and then write his name. The recognize went pretty well, the write...not so much. When he found Easy Mac at the store, he was completely fascinated to see HIS name on his favorite food! So, I did what all good moms would do. I bribed him. Learn to write Mac, I will buy you Easy Mac. Success!
PS-He also learned to write Easy, but we won't worry about that, right?
- September 20, 2009 at 9:31 PM

My fave are the american cheese slices for grilled cheese sandwhiches.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:33 PM
- ClistyB said...
No research needed. Lucky Charms, hands down.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:35 PM
- Jen5253 said...
My favorite is without question their Chocolate Mint Oreos. They are delicious!!!
- September 20, 2009 at 9:37 PM
- Mom of 3 Es said...
I have to pick just ONE?! Is that really even possible? My kids can't live without Mac and Cheese...and Capri Suns...and Ranch dressing. And, their Mama's must-haves include Crystal Light single serve packets, Oreos and Viennese Chocolate Cafe instant coffee mix (though I have the hardest time finding that particular variety...). :) Looks like you struck the mother load with all those goodies!!!
Oh, and favorite Kraft recipe is the easy meatloaf made with the barbecue sauce. My kids gobble it up with no complaints (which is a miracle!).
- September 20, 2009 at 9:37 PM
Triscuits! Even though they say Nabisco, the parent company is Kraft. And of course Double Stuff Oreos are another favorite. My youngest loves the spiral mac and cheese.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:38 PM
- Michelle said...
My favorite Kraft product is one I believe they don't make anymore. I dated a guy who worked at Kraft for awhile, and he brought home a container of the mac & cheese powder. I doubled (or more?) every cheese in the mac & cheese until it ran out... but I think they stopped making it. That totally rocked.
Aside from that, I think I have to go with hmmm oooo they make a GREAT bacon vinaigrette!
- September 20, 2009 at 9:46 PM
I use so many KRAFT products hard to pick one but I guess it would be Oreos.
- September 20, 2009 at 9:46 PM
- Spooky said...
Really hard to narrow down 1 favorite Kraft food ;)
My kids live on Mac N Cheese, and if he could my husband would live on Oreos ;0)
- September 20, 2009 at 9:55 PM
- Steph said...
my favorite KRAFT product are Halloween Oreos. My favorite cookies, tinted my favorite color! Yum!
- September 20, 2009 at 10:00 PM
definitely mac n cheese!
- September 20, 2009 at 10:03 PM
- Lisa said...
Kraft easy mac and cheese for me please! Why? Because it's so easy and cheesy..just like me :) Actually kraft makes wonderful products and I love so many of them, it's really hard to just pick one.
- September 20, 2009 at 10:07 PM
- Carla said...
OMG! the cookies!
- September 20, 2009 at 10:09 PM
oooo....the dark chocolate forest planter's treat in the picture sounds yummy. If I don't win, I might need to go out and buy some. KRAFT makes so many easy to use products. Stephanie

- Joanna said...
I'm such a sucker for double-stuf Oreos!!! Is there anything better in life? Of course, you have to have them with milk...does that count as a healthy snack?
- September 20, 2009 at 10:16 PM
- Bethany said...
I love the Mac & cheese too...decided I might as well get used to it since I'm around kids all the time ;)
- September 20, 2009 at 10:17 PM
So I have learned from my weight watchers leader how to make a yummy 2 point Margarita. It contains:
-1 single serve Crystal Light pouch
-1.5 Oz. Tequila
- 1 can Diet Mt Dew
Other than that my girls love Oreo's and Mac and cheese.
- September 20, 2009 at 10:18 PM
- Valerie said...
Love the mac & cheese!!
- September 20, 2009 at 10:34 PM
My favorite Kraft food is their international coffees. I love that every morning I can get up and have a different flavor, from vanilla to chi. Plus, it saves so much money when I make my morning coffee at home vs. going to my local coffee house.
I also like that Kraft has such a wide variety of foods to choose from. And the Kraft name has been around for so long that it's a household name.

Double stuff Oreos are my favorite Kraft product, but I also love Kraft Mac and Cheese for it's taste and versatility.

Oreos. Need I say anything more?
- September 20, 2009 at 10:56 PM

Oreos for sure!!!!
- September 20, 2009 at 11:07 PM
- heather said...
mmmmm...Kraft Mac & Cheese. The only real mac & cheese. I can cook anything that any fancy chef could, but I have such a soft spot for the Blue Box. My husband and I used to have date night with two boxes of Kraft Mac & cheese (one for each of us) and a movie.
Now that I have a kid who likes Kraft, I have more excuses to eat it!
- September 20, 2009 at 11:08 PM
Oreos! My son would vote for the mac-n-cheese. Nothing else compares!
- September 20, 2009 at 11:28 PM
I have to say I am partial to Oreos....kind of a childhood memory, but the kids love mac n cheese.

My favorite Kraft product? Geez I can't pick one. Prob the mac n cheese? it's my go-to when I don't know what to feed the hungry kiddos.
- September 20, 2009 at 11:41 PM
I didn't even know Capri Suns were a Kraft product! We love those, they are super convenient and easy to keep in the car in case of emergency thirst. :)

- September 20, 2009 at 11:56 PM
My family practically lives on kraft macaroni and cheese sometimes! My youngest son, who is a year and a half old would eat it every day for lunch, if I wasn't so keen on offering him other things as well! LOL
- September 20, 2009 at 11:57 PM
I love love oreo dunked in a cold glass of milk of course.
- September 21, 2009 at 12:18 AM
Hands down the blue box of Kraft Mac N' Cheese! It's the best. Add a small dallop of ketchup and YUMMERS!! Perfect comfort food!!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:28 AM
- Lisa said...
Favorite Kraft Recipe, hands down, is their Easy Pleasin' Meat Loaves. My husband likes this meatloaf better than any other. INCLUDING HIS MOTHER'S!!!!! I like it because you can really change the flavor by changing the BBQ sauce you use. I also use BBQ sauce in place of the water for even more flavor!
Here's a link!

I could live on Triscuit crackers topped with Easy Cheese. It's my guilty snack secret and the main reason I try to avoid the cracker aisle.
- September 21, 2009 at 2:37 AM
My favorite Kraft product is any of their cheese. I love the 4 cheese blend. Thanks for the chance to win.
- September 21, 2009 at 4:27 AM
- Melissa said...
Kraft Mac & Cheese is number one in our house - they won't eat any other, even homemade!!
Personally, I have a thing for the O
Oreo sticks because I can sneak them and sometimes eat them without my kids seeing and wanting some, although the rest of the family would prefer good old Double Stuffed any day of the week!

- September 21, 2009 at 5:38 AM
Ikay.. gotta go with the mac and cheese, it just takes me back to being a kid and it's my kids favorite :)
- September 21, 2009 at 5:38 AM
Mmmm mac and cheese in the blue box. I prefer it to homemade.
- September 21, 2009 at 6:37 AM
OOOH Pick me, I never win any of your give aways and I really want this one, lol.
Favorite Kraft food....so hard to pick just one, but I have to go with the mac & cheese
- September 21, 2009 at 7:16 AM
Mac and Cheese would win hands down in this house. My five year old picks hot dogs in mac and cheese whenever he gets to pick whats for dinner....

Since Kraft seems to have cornered the market on junk food, I've got to go with Oreos and Planters. Sugar and salt, the PMS diet! I'm post-menopausal, but I still get those old cravings.

I love many Kraft products, but MINT OREOS have to be my favorite. :)

Love Capri Sun! (Oreos too)

My favorite is chocolate/chocolate oreos. Second favorite is double stuff oreos. See a trend here?

To be honest . . I love me some double-stuff Oreos. They are yummy :) And as for my favorite Kraft recipe, it is this one:
Chicken Nacho Bake
4-6 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup Salsa
1/4 cup Sour Cream
1/2 cup crushed tortilla chips
1/2 cup Shredded Cheese
PREHEAT oven to 400ºF. Place chicken on foil-covered baking sheet. Slice three cuts on top of each chicken breast with sharp knife.
TOP each chicken breast evenly with salsa, sour cream and tortilla chips.
BAKE 20 min. Remove from oven; sprinkle with cheese. Bake an additional 10 min. or until chicken is cooked through (165ºF).
This is such a great recipe because it's easy, uses ingredient I always have on hand and my kids LOVE it. Can't beat that!
- September 21, 2009 at 7:57 AM
My favorite Kraft food has got to be the vanilla oreos. But if you pair them with the Vanilla cappuccino made with milk of course THEN you have an amazing breakfast. Now I just have to convince my kids that daddy ate all the oreas this morning before they were up!
- September 21, 2009 at 7:58 AM
- Melanie said...
Mac and cheese has to be our favorite, but the mint oreos are a close second!
- September 21, 2009 at 8:11 AM
- Jessi said...
I'm a big fan of the good old standby mac and cheese, but my favorite is probably some of their dressings or maybe Oreos.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:12 AM
- Lisa said...
My favorite have to be the Oreos... The chocolate covered ones. But I can only buy them every couple of months or so, because the box disappears in 2-3 days. My kids would probably say the mac and cheese though.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:14 AM
- Sandi said...
not a recipe, but a favorite Kraft product memory.....
my oldest son loves Oreos. so does my husband. when our son was about 3, he figured out where my husband was safely storing/hiding the Oreos. at some point, he opened up every single cookie and ate the cream filling, then stuck the cookies back together, and placed them back inside the cookie container. later that night, my husband had his giant cup of milk and grabbed the cookies for his late night snack. he was very mad at me for not buying Kraft and getting "those cheap immitation Oreos". I had no idea what he was talking about until he showed me all of the cookies, all licked and smashed together! lol the moral of this story? he found a better hiding spot.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:18 AM
It's gotta be the Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. My kids like when I spice it up with some onion powder....mmmmmm!
- September 21, 2009 at 8:23 AM
- Amber Narae said...
Oreos. Definitely oreos. My hubby is currently deployed, but we make time once a week to sit down and eat oreos and milk "together" over the phone. I think we'll keep the "tradition" forfuture deployments... it will be great for the kids, too.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:23 AM
Oh my. I'd have to say oreos. Or mac and cheese. or ritz crackers! OH, I know! ritz crackers with mac and cheese with oreos for dessert!
- September 21, 2009 at 8:28 AM
Favorite Kraft product in our house is probably ranch dressing. My 5 yr old grandson eats it on everything - usally with honey mustard and ketchup mixed in for extra flavor. Looks gross but he loves it.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:30 AM
- Chasity said...
They make a deli style sliced cheese made with 2% milk- I swear its been on every grocery list I've made in the past 5 years. Whenever I try to substitute, my oldest son grumbles & goes on a cheese strike.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:33 AM
- zekesmom10 said...
Who doesn't love the Blue Box? I ate it as a child with hot dogs. Now my boys it eat too.
Of course, there is also Oreos. I prefer double stuffed. Take two double stuffs apart and put them together for quadruple stuffed goodness.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:36 AM
- pattymerry said...
It has to be Mac and Cheese. It's the first thing I learned to cook, and the first thing I ever let my daughter cook by herself!
- September 21, 2009 at 8:48 AM
Hmm ... there are so many yummy Kraft products that it's hard to choose. But if I took a vote in my household, they're favorite would have to be OREOs. Although the 100% juice Capri Suns are probably what we purchase most often!
- September 21, 2009 at 8:50 AM
- Nicole said...
We love so many Kraft products, but our top two is probably the reduced fat Kraft Ranch and Mac and Cheese.
- September 21, 2009 at 8:52 AM
Choose one?? We love the Mac and cheese, but Oreos are also a favorite. Kraft Ranch dressing is the only kind I buy. The new Crackerfuls are good too!

we love so many things that are from Kraft. of course mac and cheese is a huge hit in my house with me having 3 daughters ages 4, 3 and 1 1/2. Those little girls can eat a box between them and sometimes they still want more. LOL

- September 21, 2009 at 9:09 AM
Well I was going to say that my favorite Kraft product is their spiral macaroni and cheese (what makes the spirals so much better than the macaroni noodles?!) but now I see they make Chips Ahoy, Oreos, and Planters nuts as well???
My decision just got a lot harder. But I think I'll have to stick with the spiral noodle-y goodness.
- September 21, 2009 at 9:12 AM
- Kristin of course said...
I know this is going to sound stupid to those people who actually do real cooking but MacnCheez is just a staple that you can't beat. I heart Kraft mac n cheez.
- September 21, 2009 at 9:14 AM
A favorite? That's hard! Mac & cheese is a staple in the house - gotta have it for tuna delight! I have my son addicted to milk dunked Oreos! Love the fat free dressings - also a staple in the house.
- September 21, 2009 at 9:19 AM
- CHOATE FACTOR said...
I love the "blue box" mac and cheese ~ wouldn't have made it thru my 20's without having it at least 3 times a week. However, I must say the double-stuff Oreos are at the top of my list! Have you ever taken two double-stuff, removed one cracker on each, then put the cream halves together to make a quadruple-stuff Oreo?!! Now, that's a cookie! I don't think they're available in the 100-calorie packs, though...
- September 21, 2009 at 9:21 AM

We love the mac n cheese. The new Crackerfuls are really good too.

I would have to go with oreos as my favorite. I don't get them very often, but I love them

Mac and cheese from Kraft is the BEST. I am loving the double stuffed golden Oreos right now too.

My favorite is Claussen pickles!
- September 21, 2009 at 10:06 AM
Wow, I didn't realize we liked so many Kraft products. I guess Oreos are our family's fave, but I would love to try those little fudgy Chips Ahoy things in the picture. Congratulations on being diaper free. We are still in the training phase here.

Favorite Kraft product in that pic? Def. Golden Oreos. Give me a gallon of milk and I can eat the entire package. Ooooooh, they're good!
- September 21, 2009 at 10:15 AM
I love Kraft Italian dressing and chicken in the crockpot. I use the chicken in salads or put the chicken over whole grain brown rice. My girls love it.

Ok, I'm going with Chips Ahoy. ;-) I am interested in checking out the Back to Nature line - like you, I try to keep healthier stuff around, but sometimes we can't.

Mac and Cheese, for sure. We have several recipes that use it.
- September 21, 2009 at 11:15 AM

My favorite used to be Oreo - hands down. But since I got pregnant with my 4th child I craved Mac and Cheese and ONLY Kraft. So I guess Oreo's and Mac and Cheese are tied!

100-calorie packs. I'm so diet conscious, and these are great.

When I was in college I lived on easy mac. And now I still make hot dogs and mac n' cheese for dinner at least once a month. My husband adds red pepper flakes to make it spicy.
- September 21, 2009 at 11:27 AM
My favorite is probably the mint oreos...they are dangerously good!!
- September 21, 2009 at 11:38 AM
- ChristinaL said...
Wow, pick a favorite??? I would have to say EVERYTHING!! :) I have been getting the Kraft Food and Family magazine for a few years now. I love getting the recipes. I love the new Budget Wise section on their website. They have really cute ideas for kids on the site as well.
As far as a favorite recipe, I don't have one. But this one looks really good, and simple too!!!
- September 21, 2009 at 11:39 AM
Mac n cheese - definately... but only when my husband makes it. It doesnt come out the same when I do.
- September 21, 2009 at 11:52 AM

Double stuff oreos are the absolute best!

My favorite Kraft product has always been and will always be the original Chips Ahoy cookies. With ice-cold white milk to dunk them in. Yummy, yum, yum, yum. Ok, now I gotta go find some Chips Ahoy and milk...

- September 21, 2009 at 12:10 PM

Hmmmm.....I think it's a toss up between mac and cheese and oreos! I love both of them! I'd love some Kraft goodies!! My kids live on Capri Sun juice boxes! I pack one every day in my son's lunch. It's just easy.
- September 21, 2009 at 12:12 PM
- Kristine said...
Oreos. Hands down.
How can you go wrong with a cream filled cookie that is perfect for dunking!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:16 PM
- Dayna said...
O-R-E-O with all that yummy goodness in the middle is my most favoritest cookie of all time!!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:18 PM
My favorite recipe, which we had last night btw, is to cook some mac and cheese. Saute some hot dogs and add to it. Add some peas, and dinner is done. Very simple, but great. And only kraft mac and cheese tastes right.
- September 21, 2009 at 12:24 PM
Hi Dawn,
I make this awesome stir fry with Kraft's Barbeque Shake n Bake. I got the recipe on their website and it's called Quick Oven Stir Fry. You just cut up chicken into small bite sized pieces and coat them with the Barbeque Shake n Bake. Line a 9x13 pan with foil and add frozen stir fry veggies then top with the coated chicken. Sprinkle the rest of the Shake n Bake over the 9x13. Cook on 375 for about 30 minutes (or until chicken is done), then serve over rice. Sounds weird, but it's YUMMY!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:35 PM
I love Kraft Mac and Cheese. It gets me through college!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:36 PM
- Mama said...
Oh, oh, did someone say free food? And I don't have to lug the kids in & out of the car for the Sam's Club samples, or catch the regergitated sweet & sour chicken rice sample in my hand when the 3 yr. old decides he doesn't like it. Count me in. I would have to say the ranch dressing or BBQ sauce is my favorite, it gets my kids to eat about any meat & sometimes some vegetables they usually refuse to try.
- September 21, 2009 at 12:50 PM
My Kraft fav: of course, the original mac n cheese. But wait, I sure do like Oreo's, and Chips Ahoy. And Velvetta, who could forget the Velvetta. Hmmm, I think they all may be my favorites;)
- September 21, 2009 at 12:51 PM
- Outnumbered Mama said...
Wow! What an awesome Blog! Hmmm, my fave Kraft Product would have to be Roasted Red Pepper Salad Dressing. It is awesome for marinading any sort of meat!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:52 PM
- Mama said...
Not trying to stuff the ballot on the free Kraft stuff, but I do just did a stress test. It's so weird you had one before me, I was checking your blog repeatedly thru-out the day to see what you had to say about it. I was really dreading the running on treadmill w/o a bra thing, because, man, I got some honkers, however, at mine I got to wear my bra. YEAH. The sandpaper scratching the skin & then the removal of all the dang stickers hurt the worse!

The new vanilla double stuffed oreos are totally addicting!
- September 21, 2009 at 12:59 PM
What to choose? What to choose? Hmmm...Double Stuffed Oreo's? Blue box mac 'n cheese? Oreo's? Mac 'n cheese? Can someone please come up with a recipe that uses both? I could live on that for days!!

Lets see, a favorite...how can I pick? We have at least half of the things in that picture in our pantry! My favorite treat is fudge mint oreos. I'm generally not a fan, but those are YUMMY!
- September 21, 2009 at 1:25 PM
Oreos and mac & cheese in our house! The two staples on my grocery list. These are actually the two foods my husband could live on. My daughter will eat anything. My husband does not let a vegetable pass his lips.
- September 21, 2009 at 2:00 PM
I have to say Oreo's are most eaten here, but I really love the Deluxe Mac and Cheese... It's so good with hot dogs.

according to my MIL, my husband lived off of mac n cheese through college.

- Amyb99 said...
Kraft Mac & Cheese is the BEST! I have eaten it since I was a little girl and still love it now. It is a wonderful comfort food and I like how I can spice it up once in a while with just adding some meat or veggies. LOVE IT! :)

I love the mac & cheese in the bowls (microwave). So easy for the mornings I've forgotten to plan ahead & get something ready for my son's lunch.
- September 21, 2009 at 2:41 PM
Only one favorite?! Are you kidding?! I'm a mom to 6 and we all love so many, like Velveeta shells and cheese, Ritz crackers, Capri Suns, Oreos and Chips Ahoy. I guess I'd have to stick with the cookies for the chocolate factor if I must choose a favorite. ;)
- September 21, 2009 at 3:04 PM
- Laura said...
I have to admit, mac and cheese is always going to be my favorite! We love to cook and no kids yet, but we always have a ton of it from BJs (like Sams or Costco) in the pantry, so it's a great option when we're getting home after a 16 hour day and just can't make anything else. I just went back to graduate school, too, which is a HUGE change, and I've restocked on the Easy Mac!
- September 21, 2009 at 3:04 PM
We love the 100% Juice Capri Suns in this house! They make great ice packs when we go out for the day and by lunch they are thawed but cold making the perfect drink for my boys.
- September 21, 2009 at 3:11 PM
Let's see...I like the oreos - plain ones, chocolate ones, chocolate covered mint - yummy! And of course Mac & Cheese - super yummy if tuna or rotisserie chicken is added to it! The dressings are good too! Velveeta Shells & Cheese....So much more, too much to list! Now I'm hungry! Thanks Dawn!
- September 21, 2009 at 3:14 PM
- Dee said...
I love all of thier cheeses! And I would love to win a box of Kraft food.

Which single Kraft product...hmmm too many to choose. I say Oreos if I have to pick one.

I'd have to say my favorites are Kraft Dinner Extra Creamy and Oreos. I could probably pick a whole bunch more, but I'll stick with those two.

- Sarah said...
spiral macaroni & cheese please! it's my favorite.
- September 21, 2009 at 4:17 PM
- Lori said...
Gotta be Oreos! My grandma used to make a dessert that is by far THE family favorite for all generations, and is requested at every family get-together.
Crush one large package of Oreos. Spread 3/4 of them in the bottom and up the sides of a 9x13 glass baking dish. Soften one quart of vanilla ice cream, and stir in 3 mashed bananas. Pour the ice cream/banana mixture over the crushed Oreos. Sprinkle with the remainder of the crushed Oreos and freeze until hard. (Will take possibly 1/2 a day or more.) Cut into squares and serve. YUMMY!!!
- September 21, 2009 at 4:36 PM
- Beth said...
Kid's choice - Mac N Cheese
My choice - oreos!!
- September 21, 2009 at 4:38 PM
My favorite is Oreo's...If you ask my youngest son, he'd definitely say Mac and Cheese, though! Thanks for a chance at winning!

Mac N Cheese, dude!

First things first, I hope you didn't really break your knee. I'm about that graceful, too, though, so completely understand. And, I'd save my camera before breaking my fall, too. :)
Second, my favorite KRAFT product is well ... anything that's food. I'm not all that picky when it comes to food, really. I do, however, buy Mac & Cheese and Oreos by the case, so those two would probably have to be the actual favorites in my house.
- September 21, 2009 at 4:45 PM

Definitely Oreos. Love 'em!
- September 21, 2009 at 6:00 PM
There is no way that I could name my fav Kraft product, there are so many!!!! I guess that I would have to say that I'm in love with their new flat bread wheat thins, and their golden oreos!!!!

I LOVE Back to Nature products. We buy them all the time. And I'm always up for some yummy mac n cheese!

My husband loves oreos. I mean, I'll buy a box, bring it home from the grocery store, put them in the cupboard, then go into the pantry to find one after my daughter has gone to bed and they're all gone. Any chance of you sending those Kraft goodies my way so I can try to find a better hiding spot?
- September 21, 2009 at 6:53 PM
- Deanna said...
Another Mac 'N Cheese fan here - my kids would eat it every day if I let them. When I was a kid myself my mom would make a box of this, add in a can of cream of mushroom soup, some tuna and a can of peas (drained) for some quick and easy tuna casserole - not really a casserole, but I didn't learn this until much later - comfort food at its finest! YUM!

- September 21, 2009 at 9:08 PM
I absolutely love the new vanilla oreos, much better than the orignal ones.
Favorite recipe:
Chop and cook one pound of sausage
One can of rotel
Velveeta cheese
After cooking the sausage, melt the cheese and mix the sausage, cheese, and rotel together and eat with tostios and you can top with sour cream if desired.

You can't beat Kraft Mac & Cheese, although we've cut down on it significanly because of all the artificial stuff that goes in there. I'm glad to know that Kraft is making a natural line, and I'll have to check that out!

Oh, where do I begin? Oreos, mac'n cheese, ritz crackers... We love 'em all. In moderation, of course. It would be nice if they were healthier, but their not, so we'll eat them anyway.

DOUBLE STUF OREOS with a tall glass of milk!! Mmmm.... On the other hand, my kids sure do love Mac-n-cheese!
Oh, by the way, my 3 year old drew Spongebob on his magna doodle and by golly he turned it around to show me and proudly announced, 'Look mommmy, he got a weiner!!' Oh, boys....

We are fortunate here, because we have a market twice a week, where the local farmers sell their stuff. It's more expensive up front -- but on the other hand the vegetables and fruits are fresher than in the grocery market, there is less packaging (and thus garbage) you take home, you get to pick the best pieces, support a local farmer, and do something for the environment, etc. I love it! Some other goods, such as milk, I also prefer the more expensive brand, if it's local.
But you are right, the budget just doesn't always allow for the better choice!
My kids love Oreo Cookies by the way, but since they aren't sold in Austria, it's always a special treat when they do get a hold of some.
So long,

I love the Grilled Bruschetta Chicken recipe from Kraft. My family of boys won't eat the bruschetta mixture but they still enjoy the chicken. (http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/recipes/grilled-bruschetta-chicken-106252.aspx) Also a big fan of Easy Mac. The kids can add the water and put it in the microwave themselves. Great after school snack!

Well, by checking out the phot and a quick Google search, I found out that Kraft owns Nabisco. I must have skipped over that fascinating news item :-) In which case, that would have to make Oreo's my favorite. If you asked my son, it's shells and cheese (with some keilbasa thrown in) hands down.

Is there any better store bought cookie than Oreos? Golden or chocolate, they're only available from our friends at Kraft.

My kids went through a phase when they didn't like mac&cheese. Strange, I know. But now I've got at least one of my kids hooked on white cheddar mac&cheese and the others will usually eat it if that's all I'm going to make. Love it!

I love taking whatever variety of pork I can find on sale, put it in the crockpot and add in a whole lot of Kraft BBQ sauce, turn it on High (or Low if you do this early enough in the day) and...voila BBQ pork for dinner. We shred it and use it to make BBQ pork quesadillas. Yum.

There is a book titled: "Down the Mississippi" or "Down the Great River: Embracing An Account of the Discovery of the Mississippi" by Captain Willard Glazier that gives an interesting account of the ranch of George Barclay about 1881.
In July 2001, I followed up further at the MHS on the reference to Captain Glazier and "Down the Mississippi, (page 35)." (#F354.655 1841-1905) This book is not very large about 5 inches by 4 in size and it is bound in a leather cover and it is becoming quite fragile.
In the table of contents under Chapter II "Through the Chippewa Country" he lists George Barclay …it reads: "…Ride to Pine River.–Huge Logs and Boulders.–George Barclay.–Characteristics of Indians…….etc."
Copies were made of pages 35, 36 and 37. It does not give an exact date. It does not mention Mrs. Barclay or any children just describes the ranch and accommodations. The Table of Contents features a really good description of the chapters.
Page 35-37:
"After dinner we resumed our journey, with Pine River as the evening destination. Sometimes in the road, sometimes out of it; now driving along the shore of a lake, and again over huge logs and boulders, it was voted that our ride to Pine River was unlike anything we had ever elsewhere experienced. The ranch of George Barclay, the only white habitation between Gull Lake and Leech Lake, was reached at five o'clock in the evening. Here we were most agreeably surprised to find very good accommodations for both man and beast. Barclay is a decided favorite with the Indians, and his prosperity in this isolated corner of Minnesota is largely due to his friendly relations with them. He is always supplied with guns, knives, beads, tobacco, and such other goods as are in demand by his dusky neighbors for which he receives in exchange furs, game, snake-root and such other products of the forest as find a ready market at Brainerd or Saint Paul. Much valuable information was obtained at Pine River concerning our route to Leech Lake and beyond, the peculiar traits and characteristics of the Indians whom we were likely to encounter, and those persons at the Agency who could be of most service to us. An excellent breakfast on the following morning, with the prospect of reaching Leech Lake, put my little party in the most exuberant spirits for the day……"
Page 148
"…several of my hearers showed their interest by coming large distances to the lecture, and one, George Barclay, a pioneer, told me he had brought his family thirty-seven miles with an ox-team to hear what I had to say about the old explorers." Private home in Brainerd, Minnesota August Eighteenth"
In trying to pin down the date or approximate time that Capt. Glazier visited G. Barclay, I found on page. 31 that Glazier headed for Brainerd on July 7, 1881. He has included his description of George's ranch in Chapter II – Through the Chippewa Country. They headed for what is called the Government Road on July 12th to Leech Lake. He stopped at Reuben Gray's house who had a hotel/pioneer half-way house between Brainerd and Leech Lake at Gull Lake.
The interesting thing is that there is no mention of the death of baby George just a little before the visit by Capt. Glazier?
This book is currently available for viewing at Google Books and is well worth reading.
Note: The photograph above was taken at the headwaters site in the park at Lake Itasca. They had to clean up the lake from the logging and fix this area with cement so that is why it looks so orderly. Here is a link to the State Park website: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/itasca/index.html I think I saw a red fox in the trees when we were there.

It's time, bay scallop harvesters! Get your snorkels, masks and dive flags ready. The recreational bay scallop harvest season began July 1.
The season is regularly open through Sept. 10, but at its June 28 meeting in Palm Beach Gardens, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) discussed extending the season by two weeks.
Bay scallops can be recreationally harvested in Gulf of Mexico state waters (shore to nine nautical miles) from the Pasco-Hernando County line to the west bank of the Mexico Beach Canal in Bay County.
The recreational bag limit is two gallons of whole bay scallops or one pint of meat per person, per day, with a vessel limit of 10 gallons of whole bay scallops or one-half gallon of meat.
There is no commercial harvest for bay scallops in Florida state waters.
FWC officers will be working during scallop season to ensure that everyone has an enjoyable, safe day on the water. To help boaters remain safe they must follow all safety regulations, including having all necessary safety equipment onboard.
"With extra people on and in the water, it is especially important that divers and snorkelers properly display a dive flag and boaters steer clear of those in the water," said Col. Jim Brown, director of the FWC's Division of Law Enforcement.
For more information about bay scallop season, visit MyFWC.com/Fishing and click on "Saltwater," "Recreational Regulations" and "Bay Scallops." To learn more about the June 27-28 Commission meeting, visit MyFWC.com/Commission.

My blog in the Digital Web. From here you can see the paper trail of what I find on the net that I like, as well as any interesting happenings. Also of interest to some are my writings, small pieces of fiction based on worlds created by others (as is the case of the Exalted sequence), or by me (as in the Dark Ages and Present Time series). My main anchor now is here.
