My daughter that turned 17 on St Patricks day, picked up her new car yesterday. She found it herself, her Mum & herself took it for a test drive & showed me & I told them what I thought it was worth. She texted me later to say she bought it. i should say she didn't want me involved, wanted to do it herself(with Mum😉).
Now the important thing is Lilly paid for it all herself & is paid in full. She had saved over $13000, picked up for under $10. She works after school & weekend, Christmas school holidays she worked just about every day. Makes you proud😄

Now this was so enjoyable to read Mitch, same thing with my two boys when they were younger as I did the same thing in regards to buying my first car. Life lessons learned well :) ;)
 
Done at last, thank the good Lord. Never again.

How to nuke a hard-boiled egg without making a mess of your microwave or blowing your face off.

My daughter once microwaved a peeled hard-boiled egg without puncturing it first. She actually made it halfway back across the kitchen with it when it exploded and went everywhere. It's easier to clean up if it blows up inside the microwave. :rolleyes:

I once dropped a peeled hb egg and nuked it briefly to sterilize it. When I bit it it blew up in my face like one of Foghorn Leghorn's dynamite sticks.

Let me be sure I got this straight, to keep my face intact while microwaving a hard-boiled egg, pierce with a small piece of wood and color the shell yellow, right? o_O;)

I've not had the chance to take a picture when my wife is making maple candy. Here is a photo from a few years ago.
