I admit that a classroom is not the place to review the longevity of a stapler. The bottom line is that staplers don’t last in a middle school. My 7th and 8th grade classes have gone through five very good staplers in the past school year. I,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~430505758340 Sun, 18 May 2008 13:26:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_430505758340?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_430399983236?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - Now this is a coffee pot that I really wanted to love. My old percolator was beginning to wear out. It had lost its shine (hard water washing will do that to exterior finishes) and it had a small leak in the spout. So, for Christmas a year ago, I put a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~430399983236 Sat, 17 May 2008 14:22:07 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_430399983236?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_426523725444?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - I love coffee. But, I don’t love all coffee makers. This coffee maker is one that I can recommend but is not my favorite. I can recommend it because it does what it is supposed to do. It makes good percolated coffee. However, it also has some drawbacks... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~426523725444 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 10:44:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_426523725444?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_426482175620?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - It costs a lot of money to teach today. Actually, in my district, it always did cost a lot. While some school districts actually pay for paper, pencils, and teacher/student needed utensils (like pencil sharpeners and colored pencils) our district has... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~426482175620 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 01:06:08 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_426482175620?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_423092784772?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - True Romance Magazine is a magazine that has been around about as long as I have; and I’m older than sin. When I was a teen I loved reading these romantic magazines because sometimes they swore in them and the topics were titillating to my teenage... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~423092784772 Sat, 22 Mar 2008 12:25:47 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_423092784772?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_402721443460?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - We eat a lot of vegetables. My husband loves vegetables. I’m not just talking about a meal with vegetables; but a vegetable meal with meat. We are not vegetarians (I love meat) but we don’t always require the ideal meal of salad, meat, vegetable, starch,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~402721443460 Sat, 8 Sep 2007 14:46:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_402721443460?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_344833691268?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - So, you must be wondering, who would want a skillet with holes in it. That would be me; and if you are doing any barbequing this summer, it should be you. During the summer months, we in Michigan, love to barbeque. It “makes” it summer. All through... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~344833691268 Sat, 7 Apr 2007 13:31:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_344833691268?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_338044030596?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - “Who smells like cotton candy?” was the question asked the other day as I visited the main office at the school I work at. “That would probably be me,” was my reply. The probably (instead of is) is because I’ve been told that I smell like many yummy... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~338044030596 Sat, 24 Mar 2007 13:38:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_338044030596?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_334580846212?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - While shopping at my local grocery store and perusing the magazine titles (this small store has many titles that aren’t found elsewhere) I found one that seemed just right for my middle school classroom. The title is Six7*8th and those are the grades... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~334580846212 Sat, 17 Mar 2007 14:34:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_334580846212?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_318207790724?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - We live on a lake and there are lots of critters that we have living around us. There is a nearby park area and a vacant lot next door to us and critters abound. However, we never really paid much attention to them until our faithful cat, Snoopy, died a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~318207790724 Sat, 10 Feb 2007 15:09:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_318207790724?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_316361444996?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - Having an established Italian-based home (my husband is from Italy) dictates that wine be served with most meals. My husband and his family actually import grapes and make their own house wine each year.

I’ve been married many years and have washed more clothing than I’d be able to count and for my white loads I’ve always used Clorox bleach. But, the old bleach did have a few... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~261785947780 Wed, 4 Oct 2006 12:24:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_261785947780?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_249974066820?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - About a hundred years ago, I belonged to the (in)famous Weight Watchers Club. I think that now it is an organization, but I digress. I belonged to it because I was overweight after having had two babies in three years. It worked for me but I always hated... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~249974066820 Wed, 23 Aug 2006 12:12:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_249974066820?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_248809164420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - Have you ever received one of those flyers in a Sunday newspaper or in a magazine that promises huge strawberry plants, watermelons, flowers, shrubs, or in my case, tomatoes?

Sometimes it seems that inventing a better version of a standard... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~247748136580 Fri, 11 Aug 2006 23:10:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_247748136580?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_246462451332?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - I have read many reviews of the wood paper towel holders on Epinions and because most of them have been negative, I decided to write the opposing view of this kitchen tool. We have had two of these and both were similar in design. The one I have now I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~246462451332 Sat, 5 Aug 2006 13:56:01 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_246462451332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_246257258116?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - My sister has parties. It’s what she does. She hosts parties. If someone at her church sells jewelry, she has a party; if someone does scrapbooking, she has a party; if they sell Home Interior, she has a party; and of course if they sell Pampered Chef,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~246257258116 Fri, 4 Aug 2006 11:26:19 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_246257258116?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_245669400196?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Prepoia - Timers can be used for various uses and that’s what I purchased our timer for, various uses. I use it for cooking, hair applications, used to use it for time outs, and occasionally I take it to school and use it for class.

Why then, a review on a magazine that is called, “Vegetarian Times”? The answer is that this magazine has recipes that are both healthy and tastes great.
