    Penny replied to the topic Just started drinking wine. What are good wines for beginners? in the forum Food 3 years ago

    I get my wine shipped to me because I find it so convenient. I order it from WineOnline.ca and it’s great, because I can get stuff from anywhere. My local wine store is limited.

    Penny replied to the topic Just started drinking wine. What are good wines for beginners? in the forum Food 3 years ago

    Try Chardonnay. It is the name of the grape from which the wine is made. This is a good one for beginners. Very popular also. It is a dry wine, so if you like things sweet, maybe this is not for you, but still, give it a shot.

    Penny replied to the topic Learning more about my family's genetics in the forum Education 3 years, 6 months ago

    DNA is interesting! Here are some quick DNA facts to get you started:

    1.) Everyone gets their genes from each parent. These genes will get all kinds of instructions that they send to all of our cells. This basically tells the cells how to grow and work.

    2.) Our genes are nicely arranged in something called chromosomes. We all have 23 pairs…[Read more]

    No, don’t worry. I agree it sounds really hard, but lawyers will know how to advise you and work with these things. They know stuff inside out right? Before you start to panic, talk to someone about your situation first.

    Penny replied to the topic What will I do with my car while I’m on vacation? in the forum Lifestyle 3 years, 7 months ago

    You bring your car to them, and they keep it in their secure parking lot while you’re away. You’re guaranteed to have a parking spot, and most of the time they’ll have a shuttle bus that will take you from their parking lot to the airport. So you won’t miss your flight, and you don’t have to worry about anything bad happening to your car.

    Penny replied to the topic Help me buy a vacuum cleaner! in the forum Shopping 3 years, 7 months ago

    Smaller, portable vacuums have batteries. If you get a larger one, check out the length of the cord. Make sure you measure your living room to see if the cord can stretch from one end to the other. If you get a portable vacuum, find out how long you can use it before you need to recharge.

    Penny replied to the topic Are probiotics actually useful? in the forum Health 3 years, 8 months ago

    Recommend absolutely. I mean, I guess it’s entirely up to you. I suggest you try to find out more, or perhaps just try it and see what happens. Give it a chance. I did. I’m so glad I stuck with it.

    Penny replied to the topic Are probiotics actually useful? in the forum Health 3 years, 8 months ago

    Don’t knock it till you try it. It isn’t hot air, I can assure you. The next time you go to see your family doctor, talk to him or her about it. I guarantee you that they will not dissuade you from taking it.

    In your case, since you say you are in pretty decent shape, perhaps you may not feel the difference. I suppose it is one of those things…[Read more]

    Penny replied to the topic I want to learn more about marketing. in the forum Education 3 years, 10 months ago

    Thank you, and I’ll let you all know, yes! Obviously I’m not ready to start offering my services yet, first I want to keep learning as much as I can about marketing. I’ll probably enrol in some marketing courses eventually, but for now I’ll keep reading about the topic to really get me started.

    Penny replied to the topic I want to learn more about marketing. in the forum Education 3 years, 10 months ago

    Hey, that sounds great! Actually I think I would like a career in marketing, maybe not exactly as a marketing expert… but what I would really like is to be able to help artists and small business owners fall in love with marketing so they can do it efficiently and increase their sales.

    I’m not sure if other people are doing this already but I…[Read more]

    Brenda, I didn’t know you were an author! I love reading and discovering new books. What are your novels about?

    Penny started the topic I want to learn more about marketing. in the forum Education 3 years, 10 months ago

    I have heard many artists and small business owners say they are not interested in learning how to market their products, or even that they hate marketing and want nothing to do with it.

    Personally, I think marketing sounds like an interesting topic and I would like to know more. After all, the only way people will buy anything you have to sell…[Read more]

    Penny replied to the topic DNA tests for an adopted child in the forum Kids 3 years, 10 months ago

    I have a slightly different take on your situation. I think this could be a positive learning experience for both you and your daughter. Being curious about your background is human nature. You should encourage your daughter to ask questions, pursue new knowledge, and gain more confidence in herself. This is a good thing.

    You made the right…[Read more]

    Penny replied to the topic Help with Balance & Dizziness in the forum Health 3 years, 10 months ago

    While I sympathize with your plight, I think you should investigate your mother more. That should be the main priority. You don’t want it to be something serious. Is it her blood pressure? Is it her inner ear? Could it be BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo)?

    A GP may not know too much about some of that. She may need to see a…[Read more]

    Penny replied to the topic Need help: My coworkers are total slobs in the kitchen! in the forum Lifestyle 3 years, 10 months ago

    Do you have a janitorial service? Office cleaning is something that should be taken seriously, especially if your colleagues tend to be messy people.

    If you don’t, I recommend hiring Focus Building Maintenance Cleaning. They always seem to do an amazing job. If you already have a team of hired cleaners visiting your office, maybe you should a…[Read more]

    And then what happened? What do plumbers do when there are tree roots attacking drains? Do they just cut the roots and hope they won’t grow back?

    Penny replied to the topic How can I protect my basement from flooding? in the forum Lifestyle 3 years, 10 months ago

    I didn’t know blocked gutters could cause basement flooding… I guess it makes sense, that all the parts of a home are connected somehow and should work together, right!
