Comment on No more FaceBook by Dawn

I just did the massive cull thing a few weeks ago…for much the same reasons as you! I woke up one night to the fact that was spending EVERY evening on FB, usually about an hour, surfing, catching up on comments in groups I belonged to, exchanging witticisms on friends walls. I would rather spend this time with my family, or catching up in the house or even reading a good book! I decided to unfriend anyone I could contact by phone without making a long distance phone call, with the exception of my teenagers (whose pages I like to keep an eye on for obvious reaons), which basically left me with about a dozen “friends” most of whom are relatives on another continent or live a 5 hour plane ride from here . I did spend a week feeling like I had nothing to do (!!!), but I’m over it…

I too am thinking of doing this. I am unhappy with the way the who “thing” is going and its now heading towards showing “friends” every move you make…. can you please let me know how you did this. Thanks.

You buy the mould (or ‘mold’ in US english) from ebay. Hard boil the eggs and remove the shell while they’re still hot, trying not to burn your fingers too much. Wet the mould and push the egg in, close mould and put into cold/iced water until it’s cold.

This is the cutest food ever! I love cute food!
Okay, how in the world did you make the egg molds.
And, is this like a layered meal? I love it!

Ta-Dah! \o/

Hi Mel, we are okay, have evacuated to a safe area with family but it look like our whole house might go under water if things get bad. At least we had some time to prepare and we have good insurance cover. Things are really bad for many people out there so hopefully you can keep them in your prayers. Thanks for checking in!
