    Dip-ity Doo Dah! What's your favorite dip?

    Hi all! I was just looking through ZT's wonderful "chip" thread, and it occurred to me that if there is no dip to be had, I like this type of chip, but if there is dip around, I prefer that chip instead. So I decided that the "chip" thread was in desperate need of a companion thread. So now I...

    failed jelly

    So I tried making some jalapeno/pineapple jelly. Due to a rookie canning mishap, it did not set. Now I am stuck with a very tasty pineapple/pepper sauce. I used it on lamb meatballs for tonight's dinner. I think it would go well with salmon (or any fish, for that matter), chicken, or pork. Any...

    hyphenated-names

    Hello dudes and dudettes! At work today, I saw a memo in which one of my male coworkers who had married a few months back notified our boss and the HR department that he had changed his last name so that it was hyphenated as hisname [hyphen] hername. Now, I know it's pretty common for women...

    Your tipping point

    OK, the cup of coffee I got the other day at the drive-through made me think of a thread idea. The coffee lid was flawed, resulting in some messy sipping during my commute. But even when the lid is made correctly, sometimes if the spout is right by the seam of the cup, it results in: Now...

    Write about your day from your pet's point of view

    Tell about your day from the perspective of your pet! I’ll start: Morning – I relax in some unraked leaves in the back patio. The stupid one waits at the sliding door for the Dad to open it. I hear him get out of bed upstairs and I know that we have 7 minutes and 32 seconds before...

    When you lose your joy...

    Christianity isn't about feelings, warm fuzzies and such. It's a way of life. It is about our walk with our Lord - our fellowship with Him - our commitment to Him - our relationship with Him through our good times and bad...our "mountaintop" experiences and the valleys we go through. Having the...

    Thread Mash-ups

    Given the recent popularity of combining thread titles, I thought it would be a good idea to revive the ol' combo thread - repackaged as "Thread Mash-ups." The rules are simple: just combine two or more thread titles in fun and interesting ways! It's easiest to open CC in a new tab, then...

    mild annoyances and minor blessings

    Simple rules to the thread: share something slightly irritating from the ordinary day to day, then share something positive. My turn first! My annoyance - today I was pushing someone in a wheelchair down a ramp that was a little steeper than those made for wheelchair access. I was fine until I...

    supernatural forgiveness

    Psalm 103:12 - as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. Has anyone else experienced supernatural forgiveness? Of course, if we are followers of Christ, we all have experienced that on the receiving end, but has God worked in your heart to remove a...

    Would you...

    ...leave CC if you got into a relationship? In my 1 1/2 years in CC, mostly in the Singles Forum, I have seen many come and go. Some find a partner and disappear, only to return when the relationship fails. Others have a boyfriend or girlfriend and still stay. We even have a couple of married...

    Two Truths and a...Truth?

    OK - most of us are familiar with the game "Two Truths and a Lie," in which a person shares two interesting (hopefully) things about themselves, and then a "lie." The other players then have to guess if statement #1, #2, or #3 is the "lie." This is kind of like that, BUT the variation is that...
