Confessions of a Giant Squid
2661 Confessions of a Giant Squid http://www.squidoo.com/confessions-giant-squid I am so very excited to become a Giant Squid. It is truly an honor and a privilege to be part of such a great group of people.

I have worked hard to get here, but I could not have gotten here without lots of mentoring, encouragement, and help from others in the Squidoo community. This lens is to thank everyone, and also to provide potential Giant Squids with the tools that I used to learn.

Nothing shows a mother's love like a home-baked chocolate chip cookie. There is just something about the warm soft cookie, the melting gooey chocolate, and the smell of the just baked cookies that really warms your heart.

I still love to sit down with a delicious chocolate chip cookie warm right from the oven, and I have to admit that I have passed on the cookie love to my children.

This lens is an exploration of chocolate chip cookie recipes from the Original Tollhouse Cookie recipe by which all other chocolate chip cookie recipes are measured, to the Neiman Marcus chocolate chip cookie urban legend. Enjoy!

I began my journey into watercolor about 5 years ago, after being a jewelry artist for over 10 years. I wanted to explore the wonderful colors but had absolutely no experience with painting. Little did I know that watercolor is considered the most difficult paint technique.


Since I had already started working with the watercolors, I decided to continue. And I found out that I loved it. I love the look of the paint, and I loved mixing my own colors.

You've spent a lot of time and effort decorating your child's bedroom and playroom to create a colorful, warm, and loving environment for them to grow up in.

You''ve had fun picking out the colors and designs to stimulate your child's growth and spark their imagination.

Now it just needs the finishing touch to make it complete. Something designed with your child in mind. Something sweet, or funny, maybe an animal design or a pink ballerina.

Norway is a ruggedly beautiful country of mountains, fjords and glaciers. The 'Land of the Midnight Sun' has delightfully long summer days, pleasantly low-key cities, unspoiled fishing villages and rich historic sites that include Viking ships and medieval stave churches.

Norway prizes its stunning natural wonders and retains a robust frontier character unusual in Europe. It's not all frozen tundra, either. The temperate south includes rolling farmlands, enchanted forests and sunny beaches as well as the dramatic Western Fjords.

Babies are so precious. They are tiny and helpless. It is our job to nurture them so they can grow up in a wholesome and healthy environment.

How better to create this environment, than to teach our children to live a green life from the start. This lens is a resource for finding green tips, gifts, and ideas to help yourself or your loved ones create a green, earth friendly environment for children from birth on.

All parents have a lot on their minds, sometimes too much. We often feel crazed. We have school obligations, work duties, and still need to get home in time to cook dinner.

And somehow in between all of those moments, we need to nurture our families, and help them grow into responsible adults.

So take a break, and enjoy a little parenting humor to break up your day.

Zazzle is a print on demand online store that allows customers to create their own unique designs from templates or completely from scratch. I love Zazzle because I can buy just one gift at a time that I create and have it ship directly to my out of town relatives and friends.

It is also a great place for designers and artists to have a gallery for little or no start up cost.

Zazzle and Squidoo seem to have been made for each other, with Squidoo providing a platform for Zazzle designers to get their work out to the public.

This lens is a gallery of Zazzle galleries, all created by people from around the world who have introduced their artwork on Squidoo.

Amber is fossil tree resin, which is appreciated for its color and beauty. Good quality amber is used for the manufacture of ornamental objects and jewelery. Although not mineralized, it is often classified as a gemstone.

A common misconception is that amber is made of tree sap; it is not. Sap is the fluid that circulates through a plant's vascular system, while resin is the semi-solid amorphous organic substance secreted in pockets and canals through epithelial cells of the plant.

This holiday gift guide is an eclectic mix of unusual, unique, and one-of-a-kind gifts.

I have chosen these particular gifts because they are not the kind of thing that you can find just anywhere, nor would they necessarily be the first thing a sales clerk would suggest.

Some of them are made by hand, some of them are books on interesting topics, and some are found in out of the way places.

I have also given you links and leads to other places to look for interesting gifts for yourself, your acquainances, and your loved ones.

As you browse this lens, imagine yourself stepping into the doorway of a quaint little shop just packed to the brims with gifts of all sizes and shapes just waiting to be wrapped up and taken home.!

Visiting family this Thanksgiving? If so, you need to know that the rules for travel are changing rapidly, and every airline has different regulations.

The most important thing is to check with your airline when you make your reservation and again, right before you fly, to check for hidden fees and new rules of what can go onboard with you, and what needs to go in the luggage compartment.

When I was a child, my mother would hand sew and personalize our Christmas stockings. She loved to add her personal touch to our Christmas stockings. She would sew a new one for each of us every year.

Mom would find special nice Christmas material and create a pattern to cut out for each stocking. Once they were finished, she would embroider each of our names onto a stocking.

Every Christmas morning, we would get up out of bed and run down to look at all of the cool Christmas gifts, the decorations on the tree, and then grab our personalized Christmas stocking that my mother had sewn and rummage through them. We would always have Disney toys, candy, socks, and other little stocking stuffers.

My father was Irish, so we would always have to be on the look out for little gag toys, or practical jokes in our stockings.

Nowadays, it is difficult for everyone to create their own stockings at home. It is lucky that handmade, personalized, and unique Christmas stockings can be purchased. This lens will help you find sources for these special Christmas stockings.

Those of you who do not live in a climate that gets cold in the winter, are missing one of life's perfect joys, a cup of steaming hot cocoa in the icy cold weather.
The feeling of comfort and warmth from drinking a simple cup of steamy chocolate is something that truly must be experienced to understand.
Much of it stems from our linking warmth, chocolate, and food with our mothers as children, yet that doesn't take away the enjoyment.
So come with me as I take a journey through the world of comforting, tummy warming, soothing hot cocoa.

Chanukah is one of my favorite holidays to celebrate. I think that I like it so much because I always associate it with family, warmth, and good food. Of course, in our family, it is also a time to exchange presents which is fun in itself.

Raising kids is hard work and it becomes so much easier if we allow ourselves time to laugh about it, rather than stress about it.

Hope this lens will bring a lot of humor into what can be a very traumatic - but absolutely wonderful time in your life!

There once lived a man and his wife, who had long wished for a child, but in vain. Now there was at the back of their house a little window which overlooked a beautiful garden full of the finest vegetables and flowers; but there was a high wall all round it, and no one ventured into it, for it belonged to a witch of great might, and of whom all the world was afraid. One day that the wife was standing at the window, and looking into the garden, she saw a bed filled with the finest rampion; and it looked so fresh and green that she began to wish for some; and at length she longed for it greatly. This went on for days, and as she knew she could not get the rampion, she pined away, and grew pale and miserable. Then the man was uneasy, and asked, "What is the matter, dear wife?"

A couple of years ago, I was introduced to someone who baked biscotti. I loved the idea of the italian biscotti cookie that she was making, but thought I could do better. So I started to research biscotti cookie recipes.

What I learned was that there aren't a lot of biscotti recipes available and I wanted to try to bake more variations. So I started making up my own recipes by adding and subtracting different ingredients.

Every religion has its rituals and traditions, and that is true of Chanukah as well. In our family, we light the Chanukah candles each night of Chanukah, eat our dinner, then after dinner we play the game of dreidel.

Dreidel is a traditional Chanukah game that can be played by all members of the family, young to old. It is very simple to play and is a perfect fun way to celebrate the holiday, create family memories, and strengthen your children's Jewish identities.

Christmas is a time a giving and sharing, but it also has turned into a time of spending our hard earned money. Although we want to give special, meaningful gifts to our friends and family, in this economy, we also have to be able to pay for food, and gasoline.

With some planning and some thought, we can let our family know that we love them this holiday season without breaking the bank.

Some gifts can be an investment into the value of your home, or a collectible keepsake that increases value over time.

There are also gifts that come from the heart, or that you can create yourself for less money, yet would be more meaningful to your loved ones.
