I have learned so much from the internet.
A few years ago, for Thanksgiving dinner with The Writer's parents, I volunteered to make green bean casserole, which is a favorite of my family. My mother in law said she didn't like the kind made with French style green beans, which was the only kind of green bean I'd ever used. I thought there had to be a way to make it from scratch, so the Writer and I turned to the internet. We found a recipe by Alton Brown from the Food Network (recipe here) that used fresh green beans (though we used frozen) and a from-scratch sauce. It was so good! I've made it again several times since then (including today).
I've also learned how to do some hand stitches from internet websites.
I've kept up with the news via internet for years. I can look at almost any newspaper's website and get current events.
I've gotten ideas for organizing, holidays, projects, church, gardening, sewing and many other things from the internet.
I've been inspired by pictures I've seen on many websites.
I try not to let the computer and the Internet rule my life but it sure is a great tool!
