  1. I agree. You forgot quite a few people who violently stormed the capitol on January 6th and identified themselves as supporters of the President.
  2. I love Mexican food but I don't like the food served at typical Mexican restaurants (besides Taco Bell and other fast food places). The food is very different. Having said that, I make tacos often and we all enjoy it.
  3. The First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles released a statement:
  4. @Just_A_Guy I don't have much to contribute without breaking the rules about politics, but all I can say is: PLEASE wake me up when this nightmare is over.

    Already

    It is sad to see that a few people in power are now saying "enough" after 5 people died, seriously? People had to die to say enough is enough? It makes me even more sad to see many people supporting and justifying what happened in the Capitol, I've said it before and I'll say it again: Some of these people act like they are part of a cult, a dangerous cult saying the President is the Chosen One, the Messiah.He has become their religion. Having said that, I always try to be fair, I don't think for a minute that MOST of his supporters are like the ones we saw Wednesday.
  6. Wow! I love crusty bread and I'm so happy you all enjoyed this food. I cook with coconut milk often, it is such an amazing ingredient and I love to experiment in the kitchen too. Dravin is Alton Brown (knowing all the fancy facts lol) and you are like Ina Garten. Congrats to both of you! Missing you guys in the forum.
  7. Now you got me curious, what was the mascot?
  8. If she found out that the original words from Elder Whitney were not "fearless bands of indians" but "savage bands of indians". 😳 Yes, I welcome that change.
  9. As long as they are fresh fruits you are good to go. I'm already planning mine right after Christmas.
  10. What about gift wrapping? You see those perfectly wrapped presents during a Christmas commercial or a YouTube video? You know, "45 EASY ways to wrap presents". Well, I'm not one of them. I hate wrapping presents because I'm not good at it but also because my logical self says it isn't that important or because from experience, I know my kiddos will destroy the paper in seconds... unless of course, I'm LUCKY enough to gift someone who takes HOURS and HOURS unwrapping presents by carefully removing the little pieces of tape so they can save the paper. Just thinking about it makes me sweat.
  11. @JohnsonJones I understand your point with regards to the wording however, on closer inspection: In matters of doctrine and Church policy, the authoritative sources are the scriptures, the teachings of the living prophets, and the General Handbook. The way I read it is that there is a clear separation between doctrine AND Church policy, I think we all can agree on that. The key word in the whole statement is "and". So when it says: "the authoritative sources are the scriptures" followed by a comma "the teachings of the living prophets" they are referring to the first part "in matters of doctrine". Finally the last statement "and the General Handbook" seems to coincide with the "and" of the first part of the statement "and Church policy".
  12. @mirkwood sorry but you chose the wrong guy, I didn't like Obama at all. Nice try though.
  13. Wow, you are either great at budgeting (kudos to you and your wife) or your kiddies are very young and therefore don't eat much? (j/k, no seriously).
  14. A nice cop-out answer there Mirkwood.
  15. It is GREAT!
  16. Yes, yes, YES!
  17. I have been saying this all along. It is really cultish, and some supporters will believe anything that comes out of the mouth of this guy. Creepy! I didn't know people were upset about the statement given by the Church. Oh wait, I forgot they can only give one to congratulate Trump. The nerve!
  18. What happened with the New Year Prediction? 😉
  19. NeedleinA, I don't believe anyone should become a president if it isn't fair and square and this is the reason why we have the courts to deal with these matters. And so far, it has been a complete failure for the Trump Team. But now they want to accuse the judges, too? So unless Trump wins, everything is a fraud? (the election, the courts, the judges, the governors, etc). Enough is enough! This is becoming so concerning to me.
  20. Well, my opinions tend to be unpopular but FWIW. First, I would like to say that we are living in different times. This is not the 1950's, some people are literally struggling to make ends meet and to stay out of debt. I don't see many women choosing a career to support lifestyles but rather help their husbands with the bills as equal partners sharing the responsibilities. However, whether women choose to work out of necessity or not, they shouldn't be judged or labeled as "bad mothers". There are women who studied hard and choose to work outside the home, I'm one of them. I love my job, it makes me feel accomplished, it inspires me and helps me to become a better partner, wife, mother, and daughter of God. And there is something really beautiful about that. I respect ALL women, whether they choose to stay at home or go to work, because I know they are trying their very best.
  21. NeedleinA, I respect you and your views but sorry, I think it is very naive to think that Trump has a chance. I'm actually surprised some supporters believe he does. Yesterday was a big day, Biden WILL become the next president, there is no doubt in my mind about it. Honestly, do you truly believe Trump will have a second term in office?
  22. I was so busy with work that I didn't follow the news that much. I heard about this controversial show but didn't research it further. I'm obsessed with Sherlock.
  23. I watched most of the video and I don't see anything wrong with it. It is obviously a channel that is sharing commentary and/or opinion. I have a career which I enjoy immensely and have worked very hard to achieve. It is a blessing in my life because it allows me to help people. Having said that, I have been a stay-at-home mom in the past as well. I loved it very much and I have nothing but great respect and admiration for stay-at-home moms.
  24. What's your favorite series on Netflix? Any recommendations? I'll be honest, I can watch crime related series all day.
  25. It is OVER. Trump will NOT have a second term in office, it is not going to happen. He lost the election, the SC was clear and the Electoral College confirmed Joe Biden's presidential victory. And yet something tells me the circus is far from over, because a grown-up man cannot accept defeat. Really sad.
