Q: does anyone have a simple recipie for cookies? i want a variety but i like chocolate chip and basic stuff like that. i'll rate 5 for simplicity!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Serves/Makes: about 3 dozen
Ready In: 30-60 minutes


Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted shelled raw peanuts
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, broken into pieces
1 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup tightly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chocolate chips
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Toast the peanuts on a baking sheet with sides until golden, about 8 minutes. (If peanuts have skins, wrap them in a kitchen towel while warm and rub to remove the skins.) Cool peanuts. Place in a food processor and chop coarsely. Set aside.

In a double boiler or metal bowl set over simmering water, melt semisweet chocolate, stirring often, until smooth. Set aside at room temperature until needed.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine peanut butter, brown sugar and butter. Beat on low speed for 2 minutes, then on high speed for 2= minutes. Scrape down bowl and beat on high for 2 minutes longer. Add the egg and beat on high for 1 minute. Scrape down bowl.

Add the vanilla extract and beat on high for 30 seconds. Add the melted chocolate and beat for 30 seconds longer. Scrape down bowl and beat for 30 seconds. Add the chocolate chips, flour, baking soda and chopped peanuts and beat on low speed for 45 seconds. Remove bowl from mixer and mix thoroughly with a rubber spatula (Dough will be crumbly but can be pressed together).

Combine 2 rounded tablespoons of dough into 1 ball, about 1 inches in diameter. Place on baking sheets and press lightly with the back of a fork to slightly flatten. Place in preheated oven and bake for 20 to 22 minutes.

Allow cookies to cool for 4 to 5 minutes. Use a spatula to gently remove from baking sheet and place on racks to cool completely (Cookies will be delicate while warm but firm up when cooled. To remove without breaking, place your hand on top of the cookie and slide the spatula over it).

Haywired Body??
You should probably go to the doctor.. no one on Advicenators can be for sure on what is going on with your body. Let your mom know- maybe she will know whats up!


Q: one of my really good friends is anorexic... she just admitted to us ((me n my friends)). We really want her to stop but don't know how, she said she'll talk to us, but i don't know *exactly* what to say to make her realize she needs to stop... now... what should we say???

thx - *troubled friend*
Hun, there is nothing you can say to her to make her stop.. anorexic people have very set minds and they feel the need to be skinnier and skinnier.. you need to get her help- immediatly! Tell her parents, tell your school counselour.. tell somebody and fast! She needs immediate help!!


Q: hey..ummm..well i like this guy...but he has a girlfriend and his girlfriend is one of my good friends. But she is gone for 2 years..so..how should I get him while she's gone..or is that wrong? please help! :)

Dee
Shes gone for 2 years?! - Where the hell is she going... haha.. ok besides the point. There is no way you can steal her guy! Shes on of your good friends Dee! What are you thinking?! lol.. Ask him if hes going to stay with her or just end it.. afterall hes not going to see her for 2 years.. he probably will eventually end it with her.. all of his other friends will probably have girlfriends and he will probably get tired of waiting for her to come back.. thats when you can jump in and be flirtacious.. her guy will soon be yours ;)


Q: I've been losing alot of weight lately & I hate how it's leaving stretch marks. Any pointers?
Try using Soft-E-Lotion.. its about $20 a bottle.


Q: ok, well my friend got raped by her dad and is abused. I dont know if he does it alot, or if he did it just once, but still, my friend is in deep shit if she dosent tell anyone. Fortunatly she told me cause we're really close, but she didnt tell the social worker *she was adopted* cause she said she dosent want her world to turn upside down and change. She told me to keep it as a secret and when she told me i was half asleep *i'm awake now* so i promised i wouldnt tell anyone that could arrest him or anything. Should i tell my parents and make her suffer but have her world the way it is and how she wants it to be? or should i break my promise to my friend and tell my parents? Please help, it's a big problem! i'll rate high!

You need to tell an adult- immediatly! Your friend will be very mad at you at first, but she will realize it is for the best. She is in a very unsafe environment being abused and raped... you definetly cant keep this inside you. You are just a kid and you should never have this stress inside you.. if something terrible were to happen to her you would feel awful for not going to an adult- who could have easily prevented it! Now go tell your parents- your friend is in danger and needs you to get her help.. she just hasnt realized it yet!!


Q: I've been married for 20 years & never have, and never will cheat on my husband.
A single younger man where I work started flirting with me. He basically expressed his attraction towards me, which was extremely flattering. I let him know right away that I would never cheat on my husband. He seemed to accept this & we have continued to commincate throught our email at work & a couple of coffee breaks.
I have really enjoyed the flattery - I'm 48, he's 37. Once I realized that he really wasn't just trying to get me into bed & truly liked me as a person - I felt great.
He's extremely careered oriented & doesn't have time for a comitted relationship at this point.

I just don't understand why when I started flirting back with him, why he has backed off. I liked the flattery, and am hurt. He started all this.

I simply don't understand why he is reacting this way, I don't need a lecture on why this is unhealthy, I already know from the way I feel.
After he found out you were married and would never cheat on your husband he was probably wondering why you flirted back when he flirted with you. Hes probably just confused- so you may want to tell him how glad you are that you can still have a friendship with him- he may start to feel less confused!


Q: Hay my parents were out and I was in there bed room I been haven strong thoughts ubought haveing sex so I took the TV romoat and stuck it in my Undysand striped down and rubed the romouat over my pussey I had an Orgisin when I was doing it try itand tell me what you think!
Sounds like you had some fun.. I should try that when I get horny! haha


Q: over the course of this school year, ive finally met a guy im comfortable with and has led me to believe he feels the same. although neither of us have come out and admited our feelings, we both have mutual signs/flirting that gives an obvious clue that we're into each other. he told me he wanted to hang out this summer and we traded cell numbers and everything, except im a bit new to this.
1) we're both going to be at camp/away this summer.. and i dont want to get all in his face about when he'll be home.. so im not sure when to expect him to come around
2) should i wait for him to contact me? or no?
3) if we do end up wanting to hang out.. ideas on what to do/where to go [id like some varied answers if possible]

thanks for your time, and i hope everyone has a great summer
Sounds like you have started a pretty good relationship with this guy.. props to you! Dont get in his face about when he is coming home from camp.. you could call him up and casually ask. I'm not sure if you should wait for him to come in contact. If you want to show him you are outgoing, you shouldnt. In my opinion, if he doesnt call, he may be shy, so you call him up and make the first move... invite him to do something with you and ask when he is going to summer camp and when he is coming back! If you hang out you could try going to the movies, bowling, going out for something to eat, just hanging out at the mall, or double-dating =-]


Q: I really like this guy but i dont know how to tell him that i like him. He kinda likes me too.. but i dont know how to tell him...I rate high!!!

love,
how to deal
Call him up and asks him if he wants to hang out =D.. Be flirty.. and if he doesnt ask you out first.. you make the move (it will show him you are outgoing and not afraid of rejection.. guys usually love that kind of thing) and ask him out!


Q: hey i was just wondering where i can find some really sexy *backgrounds* with stuff such as paradise scenes, abercrombie, hollister co, laguna beach, paris hilton stuff like that! please help
Any search engine.. such as www.google.com!

Here, I looked up Paradise backgrounds and Paris Hilton backgrounds for you.. sorry holister, abercrombie, and laguna beach backgrounds didnt come up!

Paradise Scenes: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&lr=&q=paradise+background

Paris Hilton: http://images.google.com/images?q=paris%20hilton%20background&hl=en&lr=&sa=N&tab=wi


Q: hey i really would like to know where i can buy some sunglasses like.. the nicole ricci type! .. and they're big and the outsides are thick and white and the actual glasses parts arent black but kind of a dark brown! and i dont want them from somewhere really expensive like dior or something haha but around like $40 $50 or even less..i know there's some girls out there that know exactly what im talking about;) please help! i'll rate everyone that answers with a reasonable answer with 5's
Forever 21, Claire's, and Charlotte Rousse have those kind for like $5-$10. They are having sales on them for some reason.. I definetly recommend trying Charlotte Rousse or Forever 21 =D There are usually stands in the mall too.. the one in my town has sunglasses (1 pair for $9.99 and 2 pairs are $16.99) and they have a great selection! You can also try ebay.. because I got a pair of BEBE sunglasses like the ones you are describing for $10.. plus a couple bucks for shipping.. which is a pretty good deal. And Pac-Sun or Tilly's usually have some!


Q: heyyy i was just wondering if it's safe to really get an account on ebay and buy purses and what not! i have wanted an account for a long asZ* time and im just not sure what its all about and how it works and everything! please help ill rate very high;)
There are risks, but thats where people's feedback comes in handy!! Ebayers who sell a lot of stuff have a feedback number.. and by clicking on it you can see if the person is a good seller... if they are you could bid on their stuff.. because most likely they are a good seller.. but if the feedback is mostly negatives.. then you know you wouldnt want to buy something from them. I, myself have an ebay account and I buy stuff on of ebay all the time.. I've gotten all my items and I have never met up with a bad seller!.. although I do always check feedback!


Q: okay I have a cute little dog and she is a white pomeranian and is only 7 months old she goes out side and eats poop just three minutes ago she ate some and got some on her paws she is so decusting what do i do I have tooken her to the vet and asked if this was nornmal and they said no and gave me some medicine to put on it and it made the poop tast better right now she is getting on my nerves about this i just gave her a bath and she goes out and teats it and gets it stuck to her paws oh and last night she ate poop and a poiseness eggcorn and threw up on my bed I am sick and tired of her doing this freaking thing she does it every day and she eats at least 50,000 peices a week what is wrong with my dog is she retarded or is this normal because this is getting rediciolous and i am getting to the point of locking her up in a bed room or trading her in
Most dogs eat poop when they are little.. but your dog is doing it to the extreme... go back to the vet and explain your situation. If she keeps doing this you might have to lock her up or trade her in.

Q: LONG STORY
well i've liked this guy for a very long time and we've gone out and recently hes been flirting with me alot, well today a friend of mine was having a bonfire and me and my friend we'll call her "person x" were the only girls there. Well my ex has been known to flirt so he was casually doing it with both of us. then him and i break off from the rest of pack and we both get the wild idea to go swimming in the river. so we both strip ( not totally )and the whole time im scared hes holding me really close to him and he even carried me back to the house because someone lost my shoes. anyways at the end of the night he takes "person x" away and i already knew what was happeing and you guessed it he asked her out and she said yes after knowing how much i like him. Its not just that but in the morning she'd been telling me about how the love of her life "was being a dick" but she couldnt help but still like him and then when i asked her if she really liked my guy she said yea and i asked her more than the other guy and she said "as of right now yea, cuz hes being an ass". I dont know what to do! she's known for being fickle about the guys she likes. she like a guy alot and then after they go out for a couple weeks decide she really dosent. Also at the party she kept saying how much of a retard my guy was and she always makes fun of him, like what he wears and what music he listens too and they hav almost nothing in commen they're so different. I'm just so lost on what to do! HELP!
Tell your friend that you have had a crush on the guy she is going out with for a long time.. as if she didnt already know! Explain to her that you dont appriciate her making fun of the guy you are going out with! You arent doing it to her, and its bad enough she is going out with the guy you had a crush on. Ask her if she could do less bragging, and tell her that she shouldnt go out with guys if she is just trying to get back at another one. Dont ruin your friendship over these boys though.. Boys are whatever! Friends are forever!

sighned

Confused
You have to think, do you truely want to do 'it' with him, without thinking about how you answered the question he asked you. He may want to do it with you, but he is moving, and when he gets to his new town he might find other girls, he'd also like to do it with. Think about yourself, how you would feel if you did it with him and after he moved if he found a new girl.. have you already lost your virginity? If you havent.. you might want to think about this more- and even if you have you.. you still dont have to do it with him.. even if you have lost your virginty.. sex is a special thing that should be shared with people you truely love! Think about it hun.. hope I helped!!

Q: i was hanging out..dating this guy for about 2 months & we had so much fun together hangin out & he was so sweet to me.. we talked about not getting serious and everything since he was going pretty far away for college.. then he went on vacation with his friends for a week and came back & i went to a party at his house and he barely talked to me.. and now he never calls me and we havent hung out for like a month..was he using me or what ?.. i dunno what to do i really miss him!! ..it freaking sucks!
You should definetly call him and find out what the problem is! Maybe he wants somebody he can get serious with and then go off to college. Guys can be guys.. Whos idea was it to not get serious? Obviously one of you brought up the idea first, and if it was you, he could just want to get with someone else for a 'quickie'. You should definetly suggest hanging out.. and maybe talk to him about why he was ignoring you.. and why he never calls?
