We are looking for a new sauce. I love a local sauce we have near us - it’s cheap and delicious. But my husband feels like it’s too acidic.

I know I could make my own but have no time. Really I barely have time to use premade sauce so I’m really looking for a sauce in a jar.

We are looking for high quality and delicious. Hopefully lower in acid? And really not the super expensive stuff either. A little extra is fine but not the $8 a jar ones.

I bought my husband an expensive office chair. It adjusts up and down, swivels and rocks back. It was $800 and I spent that much because he is a big guy and the chair was supposedly made to hold 1000lbs (stationary of course). My husband isn’t half that weight but he is big and tall and this chair was perfect for him. He loved this chair.

But then it broke. First it broke to that if you sat on it, it dumps you out. But now it is totally broken in half. It looks like there is a metal connecting piece that totally broke.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to fix this, who might fix it, or should I just get rid of it? I don’t even know where to start but I know I can’t fix it.

The company doesn’t care. I have bought stuff from them before that has broken and they have like a 30 day return policy. But it’s the only place I found with oversized furniture like that.

I bought this cut of meat labeled as pork sirloin roast. Online the description for this said it’s a lean meat and it should not be overcooked so it does not dry out.

I was planning to use it cut up and grilled on skewers, which I thought would be fine for meat of that description.

However this meat is full of fat throughout. I tried to cut around it but it was impossible. Looks more like stew meat. Is it possible it was labeled wrong? Should I cook it longer, more like a stew (now that it’s cut up)?

It was only$1.99/lb on sale.

I want the sprinkles to stick to the frosting, not just fall off, but also not melt and run.

The cupcakes are for a wedding so they need to look perfect. I'm making them 24 hours in advance.

I'm using several different sprinkle types from the standard ice cream jimmies to Wilton sparkles to course colored sugar.

For wedding cupcakes I am using cut glass vases, turned upside down, and connecting clear plastic trays to the top.

I bought a mini hot glue gun. I have used them in the past but I really don t know much about them. The hot glue looks great because it is clear and blends right in.

The problem I am having is getting a good connection to the plastic trays. All the trays are exactly the same, but oddly some of the first ones I did had great connections but the last 2 keep coming off of the plastic. And some of the others are borderline, I had to do them many times and I feel like they could just come right off. Sometimes they don t even hold initially. It s like I just set it on there after the glue cooled.

Is there something I can do differently? Different room temperature, humidity? Something I can do to the plastic to get a better hold?

I am a nanny currently listening to a 10 month old cry. He goes right to sleep for his parents at bedtime and they let him cry "to a point" if he wakes up at night.

A few weeks ago he started taking short naps for me and kept waking up and not going back to sleep - but was still obviously tired. I had been giving him a bottle before nap because he only drank bottles when he was super tired.

So he transitioned to no bottles and I had to let him cry it out to get to sleep. It was awful but now he goes right to sleep on his own at nap time.

Problem is, he still wakes up too early from his naps and will not go back to sleep. He is so so tired. He will go back to sleep immediately if I hold him. I tried to bring him downstairs and let him wake up and he just screamed with his eyes closed. Clearly still tired, but it's been 48 minutes since he woke from his 1 hour nap and refuses to go back to sleep in his crib.

:-( Help. It's way too early for him to be awake.

I m looking for affordable ideas for all of my family, men and women, also children and teens. I m looking to spend $20-$50 per person.

It seems to be taking over our field (mostly buttercups). We are in Pennsylvania.

We are attempting to get my nephew a model rocket and the required accessories.

We are not looking to spend a ton of money are really just want something basic and easy to launch.

Online we found ready to fly rockets as well as rockets needing assembly. We were thinking of maybe getting one of each.

Can you tell me specifically what else we need?

I am installing these 2 identical seats rear facing in my car. I am concerned because as tight as I can install them according to the manual and videos I have watched online. But it still flips like its on a hinge towards the back of the car's seat. This does not seem ok at all. Can someone help me?

Its my first time using puff pastry. It's just some cream cheese, cherry, and apple filling. It would be easier for me to prep it and then bake it later since I have company coming.

I am assuming so, I just want to make sure.

I've been a very full time nanny for a family for the last 8 years. That's a very long time for a family to have 1 nanny. I've nannied for about 10 other families before this. Lots of reasons for my resignation I'm not going to go into.

I have a resignation letter that I am quite happy with that includes details, explanations, and of course lots of thank you's and positive remarks.

The plan is for me to quickly resign verbally Friday evening after they get home. (I am working late.) And hand them the letter and flee to my car as fast as possible.

How can I control my emotions and not cry. I don't want to do this. I wish I could just walk away. I have cried during resignations before. It's not that I don't want to leave this job, I definitely do. But it will be a shock to them. I've been here a long time. I hate disappointing people.

What is it? I'm looking for elementary age boys. There has always been toys made popular just because everyone had to have it. The last few years, Pokemon cards, gogo's (crazy bones), beyblades, zhu zhu pets, Kung zhu pets, and the rainbow loom were are must haves around here. And of course there were lots of other famous toy crazes in the past.

I'm shopping for birthday presents for the kids friends and if there is a current hot toy please tell me!

Anyone know where I can find them in a store?

My nephew is just really skinny, he doesn't like the excess fabric on his legs. Lots of places have them online but my mom is taking him shopping today and won't have time to wait for them to come online.

Skinny jeans, slim, boys size 8.

My 12 year old cat has been gradually losing weight. I know its not that old for a cat, but still 12 is not young either. Its getting to the point that I am worried. He does act like he's hungry all the time but doesn't eat very fast or very much. He also has trouble eating dry food, I suspect his teeth are starting to hurt him.

I know I should take him to the vet but I'm afraid if they tell me something is wrong with him I'm just going to have to explain that I don't have money to fix him.

Besides his weight loss, he is acting alright. He is gradually becoming more needy but if anyone has time to just cuddle with him he is perfectly happy.

What I would like to try is to just give him a food several times a day that is the best I can give him. I don't want to give him anything to make him sick though. I was thinking high calorie/high fat senior food but I read online not to give an elderly cat a food like that - however it did not say what to give him!

I have been looking and looking online and all of the sites say what to feed an elderly overweight cat. And they mention elderly underweight cats but don't ever say what to feed them!

Does anyone have any ideas? Again, I am afraid of taking him to the vet because I don't have a lot of money for tests that are might tell me he has issues I can't afford to treat. I just want to have him be as happy and healthy as he can be for whatever amount of time he has left.

Bought a scale since I am working on losing weight and was surprised at home much my weight changes throughout 1 day. Generally I weigh 5-7 lbs more at night than in the morning. My weight gradually increases throughout the day, after each meal or drink.

I'm wondering if this is as extreme for everyone or just me?

I have an adrenal disorder which causes my blood to misuse sodium and pottasium. I am having very invasive tests and probably surgery. I'm thinking that might make a difference too.

So just out of curiosity's sake, how much does your weight change throughout 1 day?

My options are Lowes or Home Depot. I read reviews at lowes and I am thinking about getting Kilz premium latex primer.

I am really looking for a primer that is thick and good quality.
