Identifying 80s-90s Plush Toy Rabbit?Help me solve a 30 year old mystery. My best friend has been searching for this particular rabbit toy from her childhood for 30 years. I am trying to help her with identifying what this rabbit might be and where to find it. I've created a photoshop mock-up of the characteristics she remembers it having. It was a yellow rabbit with a torso/mid section about the size of a soft ball. It was purchased in 1990 in a 'hospital giftshop' according to her father who is the person that originally purchased it. But memory is hazey after so long. It was purchased on the East coast, United States. It may be from the 80s, given how early into the 90s it was. Similar looking toys come up under names like "Russ" many times while searching online, but I'm not entirely sure that's the brand name.

Watch For Faulty Surge Protector When ChargingMy phone died a slow death. The battery melted the casing, and the battery was too old to be replaced. When I replaced it, the whole phone, darn it, and charged up the new phone, I realized it was blazing hot! Even the wall adapter was hot. At first, I thought it was the wall adapter, tossed it, was too cheap. No, it was the bad surge protector. It was free to me, which probably meant it wasn't supposed to be used in the first place, oops. Well, I was penny wise and dollar foolish. Check your adapters. If they're hot, check what's causing that. I had to buy a NEW phone, gosh! Yes, I also bought a new case for it. Sue me for free, lol.

Sad Female Muscovy?Good morn. What can I do for my 2 year old muscovy (Milly)? Last year, Milly and Mortermer (other muscovy) both had clutches. Milly hatched 2 out then throughout the day, Mortermer stole the rest of her eggs and would not let Milly anywhere near them. I had to fence Milly with the other duck. Mortamer was getting vicious. It was very sad, you could tell which ones were Milly's. Anyhow since then, Milly has changed a lot. She seems very angry and does nothing but quack all day, wants out of the yard at the crack of dawn and waddles herself down to creek and takes everyone with her. Is there anything I can do for her? She's not my happy go lucky Milly. We did keep one of hers thinking it might help but no. It was her first clutch and Mortermer's second.

Fiber Is The WordDoes your diet contain complex carbs, lean protein, healthy fats, and fiber? Fish, lean meats such as beef or pork, dairy products, and fruits and vegetables include these needed nutrients. The body needs certain nutrients to help it remain healthy, lose weight, maintain weight, and live longer. Instead of counting and keeping track of calories, it might be easier to keep track of fiber. In doing so, you may begin automatically to look for foods such as whole grains, vegetables, and fruit which are usually lower in calories than other foods.

I remember the basic look of the panda, so I drew it digitally in the picture above. It is the most I remember of the panda and the best reference I can give. I remember it having plastic, oval shaped eyes. I also know that it is probably really old, and that it had an earth symbol in the middle. I don't know for sure if the earth was in color, but it's possible. The squiggly lines on the top and bottom of the symbol are the words that I remember being there. If only I could remember what they said, what the company was. Please, can you help find this panda? I have been searching for years but have had no luck. Maybe you will, because this is my last resort. I am hoping against hope that someone out there can help.

Value of Desk?I have what I believe to be a 3 drawer drop leaf desk. As you can see, it needs some TLC because it's still being used. I have tried to find this desk and have not been able to find anything out about it. I would like to know what its worth.

Why Does My Cat Pee On Baked Goods?I've had my cat for 8 years now, male, neutered and there is only one thing he does that I can't figure out. I raised him from a week old so I've watch his behaviors and have learned what most of them mean, or what he wants, however, this is something I can't quite figure out. Leo jumps on counter tops like most cats. I don't keep many things out on a daily basis, but if any type of baked good; ie bread, cookies. Anything left out wrapped or covered he will pee on it! He doesn't pee on anything else or anywhere other than his litter box. Why?

What Brand Is My Childhood Teddy Bear?I got this teddy bear as a gift from a stranger at a restaurant around 2003-2005. He won it from a claw machine and gave it to me.

No tag, all help is appreciated!!

Saving Money at Starbucks

I'm a coffee drinker so when I go to Starbucks, it's often to get a drip coffee. I ordered this one day and the man behind me in line turned to his wife and said, "See, you can just order coffee." Black coffee drinkers definitely save money at Starbucks but there are some strategies that can make your Lattes and Frappuccinos less expensive too.

Natural Ways To Keep Snails Away From Your GardenIf you grow vegetables in your garden, you need to protect the plants from snails. Snails eat all vegetables, especially greens, such as cabbage, spinach, chard and lettuce. Since they multiply quickly, they can do serious damage.

Provide More Detail When Asking Questions?This is for all the people who are asking questions about their items value or even what the product might be. Please take detailed photos: not just the side of a table but the top and underneath, not just view of a bed with sheets on it but take the sheets and mattress off. Look for and take pictures of the manufacturer if you can find it and/or serial number. Take pictures of details that could make a difference in the answer, although sometimes it may be near impossible to get a good picture. Explain what you have with measurements, color, age, how it has been used and possible age or at least how long you have known it.

Scrap Wood ScarecrowCute for fall! We had some scraps of "plank" wood leftover from an old backyard playset. My husband cut the planks and screwed and glued the parts together to form a scarecrow with a hat.

Sofa Legs as PumpkinsHere is a cute and fun way to repurpose the legs off an old couch that will be discarded. Many are round shaped. Simply unscrew the legs, paint them, and put a ribbon on top. They are nice decorations for Fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. They can be made into personalized handmade gifts, and balloon string holders too.

Tiny KittenWe met this kitten at a fall event this weekend. It's just two weeks old and the eyes had opened only a couple of days earlier. It was so tiny and cute, such a precious bundle. We didn't catch the darling's name but the owner said it was a rescue. I think it is still being bottle fed regularly, which is why it was out at an event.

Markers and Pens HolderHere is very inexpensive way to organize your markers and pens. This product is advertised showing just paint brushes and colored pencils for $1.25 at Dollar Tree. However, I found it to be great to hold up to 49 markers or pens too!

Necktie OrigamiPreviously, I submitted a craft entitled "Teachers Day Greeting Card for Men." I would like to share about how the necktie was made. Although you can just cut a drawing of a necktie, it would look more appealing when you use an origami for detail emphasis.

Teacher's Day Greeting Card for MenNot all teachers are women. Some are men and they are great, too. So here's a 5 minute craft to pay tribute to our wonderful men teachers out there.

How to Fix Candle Tunneling With FoilWhen you have wax buildup on the sides of a jar candle, it's called tunneling. If a candle was not burned for long enough the first few times it was lit, the wax that was melted will be softer, even after it hardens again. This is called the wax memory. Each time you relight your candle, this wax will be the first to melt, and then it will start melting downwards rather than outward. This video shows you a tip on how to fix this problem.

Five Money Saving Tips for Halloween CandyHalloween is just around the corner, which means that many people will be buying tons of candy for visiting trick-or-treaters.

How Long Does A Potato Take To Boil?Potatoes are a common root vegetable used in recipes all over the world. These starchy tubers must be cooked before being eaten. Boiling potatoes is an easy way to ensure they are ready for your table or to add to another dish. Potatoes can take anywhere from 10-30 minutes, depending on the size of the potato.

Mountain City WebcamI love looking at web cams. This one, located in Tennessee, has a beautiful live mountain scene that changes with time and weather. I'm looking forward to seeing it in the fall, when there should be lots of bright colors. Hope you will enjoy looking at it as much as I do. https://www.resortcams.com/webcams/mountain-city/

Flowering ThymeI've been growing thyme at the top of this strawberry pot for a few years now. I originally planted herbs in each of the pockets but they all got too dried out and didn't make it, except for the thyme at the top. I love the delicate purple blossoms. After they finish blooming, I will trim them all off to allow the thyme to put out new leaves for tasty cooking for the rest of the summer and fall.

Bacon Topped MeatloafI learned this basic meatloaf recipe from my Mama. It's easy to add or substitute any ingredients you might have left over in your fridge and pantry. Here's a version I made recently that was very well received.

Chantel (Grey Tabby)We lost our dear cat Patton a few days before Christmas 2020 to renal failure, leaving us petless for the first time in over 20 years. The local Humane Society was by appointment only so my husband and I decided to check out Petsmart to see if they had any cats for adoption. We found this little charmer who was about 15 weeks old. She was all alone, as her brother had been adopted out the day before and there were no other cats at the time. She was allowed to climb on the tops of the cages and explore the back room so she didn't get bored. She was defintely in need of someone to play with her. So we adopted her on December 23rd.

Orange GeumHere are some photos of my geum in bloom. It's also known as Avens, part of the Rosaceae family. This easy to grow perennial has beautiful airy flowers in bright orange. Other varieties can be pink, red or yellow. The main part of the plant resembles a strawberry plant, and some varieties are know as "barren-strawberry." As the blooms fade, you are left with attractive seed pods. It's a great addition to your flower garden.

Saving Money When Visiting Las VegasLas Vegas is a popular destination for many travelers, even if you don't enjoy gambling. There are all sorts of music events, museums, tournaments, fine dining and sightseeing options year round.

Here are some ways to avoid spending too much when you visit.

Clipboard Gallery WallIf your kid is anything like mine, there is a slew of artwork being made each day. I wanted a way to display my child's art in a way that could be easily changed. This is the solution I came up with. I wanted to be able to have both verticle and horizontal pieces of art, so I got two sizes of clipboards so that art would be contained within the parameters of the clipboard. I added some patterned contact paper to some of the clipboards to add interest and also painted the clips black to match. In retrospect, I don't think the contact paper was needed, as I am sure these will always be full.

Using Digital Coupons and Rewards When ShoppingIn addition to coupons sent by mail or in newspapers, many stores have their own system for digital savings too. This is a great way to save money at the checkout. It encourages customers to be "loyal" to that store and allows the store to send you specific promotions based on your shopping history.

Garage Sale Negotiating 101Garage and estate sales are some of the best places for bargain shopping. However, if you are new to yard selling, figuring out how to bargain can be tricky. You may feel like it takes a little boldness to ask the seller to come down on the price; however, it can be rewarding for you both. Here are some tips on negotiating to save money.

Review Your Subscription Services

Many of us have cancelled cable but quickly found we're spending the same money on streaming services. Even worse, it's sometimes hard to remember what streaming services we're actually paying for. With subscriptions not just for TV but also music, ebooks, newspapers, video games, and fitness it can be hard to keep track.

2 for 1 SuetI have discovered the birds like my homemade suet over store bought. I scored a great price at Ace Hardware on suet and bought a lot.

Stop Dog from Eating PoopMy dog has always found feces to be a delicacy and I have been unable to stop her from doing this. You can buy supplements in pet stores that supposedly address this issue, but I've never tried them. I started giving my dog turmeric powder as an anti-inflammatory for her joint issues, and discovered after a week or two on this, she wasn't interested in the poop. I don't know if this is just a coincidence or not, but it's worth a try. Turmeric powder can be purchased at grocery stores, health food stores, but the cheapest place to buy it is in an ethnic grocery store (Indian, Asian, etc). Check with your vet or sitstay.com for dosage amounts based on body weight.

Information on Vintage Steamer Trunk?I have had this steamer trunk for quite a while and has only been in my family, back a couple of generations. My grandmother emigrated from the UK using this trunk, via ship in the '40s after meeting and marrying my grandfather during WW2. She wound up becoming ill and went back to the UK for treatment and to be with family, but this trunk stayed behind and after my grandfather passed, being the oldest, I always had the responsibility to manage affairs, etc. I always thought it was cool but never found a good use for it. Recently someone pointed out the swastika imprinted on the top of the trunk which I had never seen before and no one left in the family to ask about it - any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

Best Vegan Caesar DressingI have quite a few vegan people in my family and circle of close friends. One thing they're all quite picky about is a good vegan dressing. My own personal favourite salad is a Caesar salad, so I wanted to try to make a version I can serve to my vegan mates. This recipe is hands down the best so far. The capers really mimick anchovies, and the hummus makes for a great substitute for the egg base in the original version. Even if you're not vegan, I am sure you will love this version!

Zebra Finch Newborns Left Alone?I just added two pair of Zebra Finches to my Quail aviary about three months ago. Provided nests, nesting material and food conducive to breeding. One pair started building a nest within a week. About three weeks in, I noticed one finch was ALWAYS in the nest so I assumed they are sitting on eggs. Based on the date, I figured the babies should hatch about the 20th of November. There was always one or the other finch in the nest at all times. I noticed on the 20th, both were out and every time I came out for the next two days they were always out of the nest. I finally decided to look inside but it was a straw nest with very small opening (not a wood nest box with lifting lid) so I couldn't see anything. On the 23rd, I decided to put my finger in and I felt flesh with no movement or sounds. I assumed the babies hatched and then died as a result of being abandoned. I brought the nest into the house and snipped the top half open to see what I could see. There were at least three maybe four babies that appeared dead. When i went to pick one up it moved slightly and made a small sound. I immediately closed the nest back up, tied it closed and put it back in the aviary in hopes that the parents would go back to the nest. Is it possible or did the parent abandon them and it is just taking a while for them to die?

Welbilt Bread Machine Not Baking?I'm not sure what's going on with my bread machine. In the past when the bread didn't rise enough, I assumed I was doing something wrong. This time, it not only didn't rise much, but the bread is not cooked enough. The paddle also baked into the bread. All the ingredients were fresh, though I did change the order I added them. Could that have caused the problem, or is there something wrong with the machine?

Information About Collective Memories Doll?I don't really know anything about dolls so I thought I would post a question on a site like this. I got her at a thrift store and wanted to know more about her. She didn't come with a name, but it said exclusively designed, hand painted and created. So I don't know if that means she's a one of a kind or if there are dolls like her. On her neck, it says 85 Leonardo, and I found she was sold in Kmart. I've seen other dolls like her (face, eyes, hair color and style) but I don't know if it's the same because blue eyes and blond hair are common. Searched the heck outta her brand, (Collectible Memories exclusive) and didn't find much. Again, I'm no expert so the stuff I might know can be completely wrong. Help is very much wanted, thank you.

What Is This Brandt Table Used For?I bought this cute little table to hold my paint and when I looked closely at it there's a label that says Brandt along with the number 3 and the words "ancestry mahogany" stamped underneath.

Ease Itchy Rashes or ScrapesI once discovered a small rash on my arm; then a scrape on my elbow.

Finding Children Shows in VietnameseI am raising my kids bilingual while living in the US. I am always trying to find ways to help my kids be exposed to the Vietnamese language more. One way that I do this is through children's shows that have Vietnamese.
