    TRACEY ~ You, your family, and friends all looks so happy at the craft table! And, all seem to be having fun doing their various projects.

    MACHKA ~ All the mac and cheese recipes look about the way we in the South make it. My mom's looked a lot different than the boxed kind I have always bought. Hers had big hunks of cheddar in the midst of the mac and a white sauce.

    LISA ~ Egg looks very fat and content on your purse.

    MO ~ We all enjoy reading your posts! You have a lot to say and have very good insight!

    Wimped out on coffee with D this morning, too danged cold. It might take more than pulling up my big girl panties to get me out to line dancing tonight ;{
    Kylia, courragia! Getting nicotine-free is the most important thing you can do for your health. It’s not surprising to put on a few pounds as the nicotine clears from your system, releasing more oxygen to metabolize more calories from the food you eat. It, and you will settle in. Never ever ever give up!!!
    Thanks Sharon (Losingweightforgood2019)! Hope you have a good day too!
    Thanks Terri! Alas I have so many reminders on my phone, it’s become easy to ignore them… Will try to link with something I do every day…
    Mo congratulations for taking off those five pounds! I’m sure your Baby Suko is much cuter than baby Kong…
    Tracey love the crafting pic. Does Michaela feel all grown up being allowed to craft with the adults?
    Sue wrong permit? [sigh]. Heigh ho, enjoy your sleigh ride!
    Thanks Machka that recipe sounds much like how I make mac’n’cheese, except I don’t use nutmeg or heat the milk separately, just add after making the roux, then gradually melt the (Tillamook Rebecca! Extra sharp) cheddar. Likewise use Tillamook in my (now I know it’s Canadian-style) grilled cheese ;) You have a lovely smile and I really enjoy your dry wit.
    Heather I too love to laugh, and frequently find things hilarious that mystify those around me. Yes, I struggle with slow talkers. BUT I’m putting real effort into listening to Joe, giving him time to gather his thoughts, and not finish his sentences for him. Rough but rewarding ;}
    Lisa, when we visited family in St. Louis, all would gather around the kitchen table, tell stories and laugh. Likewise when we had company for dinner. BUT normal dinner table conversation was Papa stirring Mama up so she’d “go up like a rocket.” Their dynamic, not mine. Joe does make me laugh, not as much as the dogs do, but some. Joe does NOT tell stories at the table on those rare occasions that we eat at the same time. He’s of the “finish first and leave” school.
    Carol the best part of the mac’n’cheese imho, are the big hunks of browned/melted cheese on top. Rats, now I’m hungry!
    Margaret one of the best things about our house in San Leandro, was that it backed up to an elementary school’s playing field. All summer long we’d hear distant children’s laughter. Delightful.
    Sue “laughter yoga” sounds therapeutic ;)

    Day 4 progress, more purging, a little filing, worktable and desk unchanged, but no worse ;} .

    hi gals,
    in a spoiler or not we are supposed to steer away from politics here. I am in agreement with some of what has been said, not enough knowledge on some to have an opinion. But overall I care so much about our "tribe" I would hate to have any of us pushed away by the "spoiler politics"

    Love ya all,
    Kim in rainy N. California

    Sorry about that, everyone. Kim is right.

    Machka's favourite foods (mains) ...

    Mexican and Indian (mild to medium hot) are about tie for top place.

    Pasta of all sorts. I love the cream sauces but my digestive system does not. So pesto is my second favourite and better than the cream sauces. Tomato based sauces aren't too bad. Veggies with the pasta are very good but no seafood or mushrooms, and very little meat.

    Then things like pizza and hamburgers (but not fast food hamburgers). And preferably veggie burgers.

    That's pretty much what we eat. :)
