My original bags were stored in my garage...a pesky chipmunk got in on day and seemed to "set up house"!  All the beans eaten or hidden.  What a feast for chipmunks...what bad luck for Maren...these bags filled the bill.

Three of four were good, the fourth was a mess, three legs broke off when my wife tried to put corks on.  No response from seller after two attempts, making this purchase even worse.  I used epoxy on the broken legs, but will not be able to use as a gift, BEWARE!!

I absolutely love Sailor Moon, and was so excited for her to come in!! While getting her out of the box, I noticed she had a horrible paint job and she was scuffed up and dirty! I recommend individuals to buy in-store to make sure you get what you pay for! Especially if you're an "In Box Collector"

Claire isn't having the best of luck...not even her lucky duck panties seem to be working. Kasen's stress level is burning a hole in his gut that even his antacids don't touch...well, maybe if he gave up the coffee! Two flawed and unhappy people somehow find a way to be the very thing that the other needs to change both their luck and their lives. Lucky Ducks is a fun, romantic read that will leave you wanting more of Jan Romes!

Why my daughter and I enjoyed reading about bad luck that happens time after time to the unlucky Beaudelaires is beyond me - but we did. Each of the seven books in the series so far has similarities but enough unpredictability to make each book worth reading. Violet and Klaus are likeable and empathy-inspiring characters.

Bought the first one and it went bad (lava sticking up the side)  at about month 3. I had turned it off at night as usual and the next day, it went bad with no warning. I waited for them to be on sale and got another one for about $21. That one went bad too, even faster - in about 3 weeks. I don't know why this formula was bad. The other bad one was the blue with white wax. I had poor luck with that one.

 There are many other colors to choose from and most work fine. Lava lamps -in my opinion- have about a %20 failure rate, in my experience the failure usually manifests assticking up the side of the globe. I had ONE that just wouldn't "flow". I've had ONE that came cloudy; however I think it's beautiful; it's sort of misty and it looks great. Sometimes they go bad and it can't be explained. Sometimes it's the customer's fault for mishandling it. Never run them 24/7 and never ever shake one.

Customer service has always stood behind the product if you need to reach out to them. I would have loved to have this one in my extensive collection, but it was not meant to be. I will definitely buy more lamps in the future.

The Debt of Tears refers to Lin Daiyu's plaintive, obdurate settlement of her debt with fate and her surrender to lonely circumstances of death. Events in this despondent installment afford layers in increasing intensity of poignancy that presage Lin Daiyu's death and Baoyu's erroneous marriage to Bao-chai at the insistence of the Jias.

The volume begins with an ailing Lin Daiyu dreaming a bad dream that confronts her pent-up fear and fevered mind. Like a rope on a pulley Daiyu's hopes and fears spin up and down with sighs and tears. Her health takes a huge toll and deteriorates drastically. The critical nature of her condition both alarms and frightens the maids who for fear of Baoyu's lapsing into delirium decides to conceal from him. While Daiyu harbors an acute sense of insecurity being an outsider in the Jias mansion and broods about being at the mercy of the Jias, the family deliberately reconsiders the auspicious match between jade and the golden locket. Baochai is crowned with praise for having the aplomb of someone twice her age. Her virtuous disposition finds favor in the eyes of all the ladyships. As the Jias frantically prepare for the wedding without Daiyu's knowing, the delicate frowner happens to eavesdrop the news and plunges into utter mortification. The prophecy contained in her nightmare is to be duly fulfilled after all. Bitterness and grief overwhelm her to the point that she conceives the only way to escape is death. She is determined to undermine her health and seizes her fate.

The marriage between Baoyu and Baochai is an unfortunate mistake. It is an unexpected outcome of an incidence that should have otherwise favored Daiyu and spared her death. The sudden disappearance of Baoyu's jade, ponders Daiyu, nullifies the bond of gold and jade. But little does Daiyu realize that the loss of the jade on which Baoyu's life hinges causes the Jias to panic. The family resorts to hurry the wedding between Baoyu and Baochai to turn Baoyu's luck and rally his spirits. This paradox of the lost jade expounds the mysterious vagaries of destiny, the joy and pathos of life. Over the top of the hurly-burly of the Jias family life, there hangs the consistent reminder of some transcendental existence. Somehow the cycle of life is totally out of our calculation and grip. The wheel of karma is what inevitably governs the cycle of life and the human soul is only playing out a predetermined role. Life doesn't end at death for death is merely dispersion.

The bitter end of the tragic story of love between Baoyu and Daiyu throws the former into a delirium. What follows would be a significant theme Cao Xueqin intends for the novel, elements that take on a greater emphasis than ever after Daiyu's death: Baoyu's enlightenment and disenchantment, the seeing through of red lust, and finally the abjuring of the world.

This is a sad tale as Farley is working through his grief for the loss of his daughter Pam, as previously expressed in The Black Stallion and the Girl.
His main character Alec had fallen for a stable girl called Pam Athene but she decided to go abroad for a touring holiday and died in a car crash. This book opens as Alec gets the news and not surprisingly for a young man whose life has been a series of one calamitous event after another (as a character wryly comments) he has a complete breakdown.
Alec takes his stud The Black away from Hopeful Farm in a horse trailer and goes on the road, going nowhere. He ends up in the wilds of Arizona 'adding electrolytes to the water so the Black wouldn't keep noticing the changes of water'. The local people have a legend about the end of the world and a rider on a dark horse who saves the tribe. Just about then, a cataclysmic natural disaster occurs, vast earthquakes and rockfalls which threaten the whole continent. Alec plays a part in saving people's lives, along with his courageous horse.
While this is not Farley's best, and it is incompletely explained, we have to bear in mind that natural disasters often have no explanation and perhaps Farley was expressing the depth of his bereavement while showing that ultimately survivors just have to struggle on with life. This is not the best book as an introduction to the series - you should start much earlier.

Plenty could go wrong, as it turns out. Not the least of which is being one's own worst enemy. And even the 'nice' Fae are dangerous. An interesting series, one I have enjoyed.

My heart... it's breaking. Levana is such a pitiful, tormented soul. It makes me wonder what would have happened if only she had received the love she so desperately wanted? Poor, poor girl.

Made my opinion of Rose lessen.  Sad story of wasted life born to early for proper treatment.  Family appears to miss the boat with Rosemary and make it up by putting endless amounts of money into cause of Special Olympics, etc.  certainly needed , but, felt so sad fo a life that could have found happiness being born to someone else.

I have mixed emotions about this book. A lot of bad things happen to Maude, too many, but I felt like I wasn't getting the whole story.  Constantly making bad choices, the path of least resistance,  result in bad outcomes. She never accepted her own power and the liberation of independence.
