I need the names of objects that begin with the Letter Y?

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Help! My pre-schooler is to decorate a box and place objects inside the box that begin with the letter Y. I am drawing a blank…all I have came up with is Yam, Yo Yo, Yarn, Yougurt, and Yak which is not going to happen and Yardstick which is too large for the box. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

does eating yams help get you pregnant?

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

There was an article on the news that said that there is a place in Africa that has the most twins born in that area.Then it suggested its because they eat alot of yams.I guess yams help make females drop more eggs at a time.So I was woundering if any of you have ever heard this before and if it works? It sounds alot cheaper then fertility drugs!

Fried glazed yams, anyone?

Monday, August 17th, 2009

Years ago, my mother in law would fix yams in the skillet. She would slice them, and put sugar and some other spices on them, I think maybe using an oil to fry. Are they precooked or not? When they were finished there was a crunchy sweet glaze on them. They were sliced like you would slice fried potatoes, maybe a little bit thicker. I need to know how to make the recipe. Anyone ever fixed yams this way, that can help me?

Is mining for nose gold a religion?

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

Much like carbon dating, eating yams, and evolution, nosegold mining is an evil lib-er-al conspiracy to keep you from God, our Saviour.

Here is what really Happened on that first Thanksgiving Day?

Friday, August 7th, 2009

T’was the 1st day of Thanksgiving and all through the land,
the Pilgrims and Indians were each lending a hand.
They watched the game on T.V. and had pretzels and beer,
then later stuffed themselves for that cold winters year.
On the table was turkey, pie and bright candied yams,
and cranberry sauce in the shape of a can.
They ate until all they’re bellies felt dazed,
the Pilgrims had corn the Indians called maze.
The Pilgrims shared recipes because the Indians asked “How”,
and the only animal that didn’t get eaten was Ol’ Betsy the cow.
They partied and celebrated and partied some more,
because the Lions were up 21 to 4.
On the Florida team Christopher Columbus bet 20 bucks,
on the team from Detroit Pocahontas bet 20 more, a raccoon and 2 ducks.
The children played outside the big wigwam tent,
they played Pilgrims and Indians because there were no cowboys as of yet.
The women washed dishes and spoke of emancipation,
but all agreed that it wouldn’t happen in this new Nation.
Sitting Bull and George Washington smoked Cuban Cigars,
while John Smith and Crazy Horse sat and played cards.
The day was about sharing and thanks – giving,
but more attention was paid to the spanking that the Lions started getting.
They called the children in and had ice cream and pie,
then packed up their wagons and to say their goodbye’s.
The Pilgrims invited the Indians to the next years thanksgiving that they
“wouldn’t want to miss!”
But the Indians still had a few Reservations about this.
All bid farewell and said “thanks for stopping”,
then ran out to the malls to start their Holiday Shopping!
