I could have done BETTER

These are nice looking and all but this purchase was definitely a result of holiday overload, resulting in impaired decision making on my end. Needed something for my mantel and thought this would be the best choice at the time. For $22 I think I could have done better... Hindsight is always 20/20.

I wanted to love this. I've been a fan of the Howell family restaurants for years and was looking forward to this. The first thing, this book needed a better copyeditor. The mistakes are careless and resulted in some confusing recipes that needed to be read and re-read. The second thing, the thing that drove me bananas, is the prep time listed on recipes. I'm a mom. I've got enough to do. The prep time listed on recipes does not include some average estimate of chopping and cutting and prepping. A prep time of 10 minutes translated into an hour for me. I'm not a brand new cook. This wasn't inexperience. I'm not sure I have a third try in me. The book is kind of an overall disappointment.

A better ending would be nice not a different outcome but a little more finality was needed...in my mind anyway

I really liked the premise of this book, but the execution of it left much to be desired.

I feel like this album could have been good. It had some good parts, and I liked the atmosphere that it was trying to bring. I really did try to like this. But it sounded like they were focused way too much on adding way too many layers complexity to all of the songs. And I don't mean musical complexity. There really isn't any of that here. I just mean a mess of different synth loops all layered on top of each other.

Now I appreciate that they're trying to make something different, and I really love all kinds of bizarre music, but a lot of this album was downright obnoxious. They'll play the same damn synth over and over again, even though it doesn't even mesh with anything else in the song at all in the first place. I get that they're trying to be psychedelic, but that's not how you do it. More sounds doesn't necessarily mean better. The sounds need to work with each other, otherwise it's just random noise.

So all and all I'm pretty disappointed. I was pretty psyched when I saw a bunch of positive reviews popping up for this, hoping they might have produced something amazing again. But I felt like it was a chore to listen to and I was glad it was over by the time it was done. I'll admit the last song wasn't terrible, and many songs had good parts to them. It's just that they were few and far between, and often stuff that could have been decent was masked by an excessive amount of obnoxious sound effects.

It works, but it could have been done better, the view is not very clear, they eye spacing is not quite right and I can see black blurry lines when I use it. I feel like I have to strain my eyes to use it.

I knew going in that the reviews were decent at best, but I had some time to kill and so I gave 21 a shot. The acting was okay and the film wasn't as boring as I thought it was going to be, but the script could really have used some more work. Some of the dialogue was pretty bad (an R rating could have helped make it more believable). There just really wasn't that much to the movie. I feel that Kevin Spacey and Laurence Fishburne were good, but they seemed to be waiting for something in the script worth the talent they both have. Not an overall waste, but I would wait for the DVD and save a few bucks.

A waste of time!! This is an effort and I'm not even half way through. I was warned and I should have listened and saved myself some time and money.

I would've liked this when I was younger but now I suppose I'm much more picky. An editor or proofreader would have done wonders.

but i bought it and I'm not big on sending back 6 dollar items. I should have known better anyway....the foot is too thick to get under a staple and the tool itself is unsteady because the shaft is way too long....should be about half the length and have a larger curve to get leverage as you remove the staple.......

I could have built this myself in much better quality. I'll be returning this item.

The Concept behind the story was intriguing, but I feel that the author needs a lot of improvements, I hope she keeps writing and tries to improve, because I feel that she has good ideas and could possibly grow into a better author and produce good books, That being said. I could not give this a high rating , because the book was poorly executed. I knew what was going to happen before it happened.

Was not impressed by this card. The card looked as if it was too small for the envelope that came with it. I feel like I could've done a better job myself. A wooden card is an awesome concept, but it could've been done better.
