Hello Tim! I'm so glad that you will try my recipes. Now you have no excuse to add them into your diet, and substitute some of that meat for lentils instead. I guess there will be more healthy legume recipes in the future, so keep your eyes open. Hugs to you my friend!

Thanks Sue, I didn't know there were so many options before researching the topic :) interresting ways of avoiding the clogged gutters... why aren't everyone using those metal guards? you just spray a hose on it and the leaves blow off. No ladder needed hehe...

These recipes look so delicious. I have been looking for something like this for my husband. He doesn't like taking his cholesterol medication. Maybe this will be the remedy. Do you have more? Any ideas for breakfast since he has to cut back on eggs? Keep up the wonderful writing and thank you

sheilamarie, it is rather exciting to learn new plants. I've met the Chinaberry tree, (poisonous) the Osage orange tree, (good for wood and rather interesting) , and the sweet gum tree, to name a few. I take walks and say hello to them.

My instructor showed a slide that went: Adult humans that can be classed as being of the male gender, and having the characteristic of having accumulated an extremely large number of years compared to the average span of life in this particular sub group, are exceedingly prone to ........
You get the idea. He then went on to say that Shakespeare (otherwise known as quivering sharp stick) simply said "old men forget".

I always learn so much from you Jo, and my sentences tend to go on and on.
I shall stop.
Immediately!

It's Shakespeare, my dear. It comes from the great Agincourt speech in Henry V:

'Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
But he'll remember with advantages
What feats he did that day...'
Act 4, Scene 3.

Yes, that is another great short line. Thanks for recalling it!

Have you run the Norton 360 tune-up feature? What i'm aiming at here is completely clearing your cache for Wizzley. Beyond that, I think we'd be in the realm of drivers or software needing to be up-dated.

You're welcome! You can't miss them if you ever came to Wales. They're in so many stores.

Is this your cue to visit the country? :D
