Your new furniture is really really nice LIN. I can see you also, like me, as snug as a bug in a rug come the time when the north wind doth blow. It looks very cosy and I'm all for cosy! If you don't want the appliqués on the denim dress you love, are they removal? Could it be worn as a jumper or as I'd say, a pinafore…

Lovely posts today but just a shortie from me. I hate to put a dampener on all you sun lovers but I've just got back from Hikers Haven! This is because my old walking Nikes have disappeared down the road in the garbage truck and I needed something to replace them for the approaching WINTER! Perfect day, very hot to go and…

SANDY, I read the ongoing saga with Babe and his family in complete amazement! It's far better than all the fiction I read (yes I'm still working my way through all those books my DIL passed on to me.) The most valuable lesson I've learned from your experience is.....I'm so glad I didn't marry poor David who was put in the…

Hello everybody, no not busy SANDY, at least no more than usual. It's just after the excitement of last week there's not been much to share! I AM sorry about your poor hip BARBIE. Sincerely hope it is on the mend by now. JACKIE, I loved your post and as always said beautifully everything I would like to say but haven't got…

Oh JACKIE, what an awful start to your day, and especially as you love all the creatures. I'm still missing Tabitha, who would have thought a once unwanted and difficult little cat would have turned out to be such a loving companion. The house is unnaturally quiet, she was a talker, and it's unbelievable how much less work…

I don't know if "made in Italy" perfume is as famous as French perfume, but it's sort of special to me because Michael thought of me and brought it back on his travels PHOEBE. However, it smells wonderful and exactly as an old fashioned perfumed rose should smell. It's Aqua di Parma, Rosa Nobile. Take care on your travels…

Well SANDY, I took your advice, and after looking up browser history, I deleted everything and Ive got onto MFP quite normally this morning. I too think it's lovely that you jog along with your ex so happily, and wonderful for little Robby. Lovely long read JACKIE, and you are having an amazing recovery managing the…

SANDY - I think I've managed it! We will see, but if I have, or even if I haven't, thank you. Anne.

Oops

Hi, Anne here. I'm not sure what's happened but everything has changed with MFP, for me anyway. It's no longer the old familiar format and I'm not sure I can adapt! Later: Oh boy, we are back to normal again. I haven't a clue what's going on! Anyone else experiencing this?

Yes LIN, my son did get off the plane eventually. He's coming over tomorrow, presumably having gotten over his jet lag by then. My youngest son and I both have fair skin and hair that tends to reddish, but my eldest has skin that tans easily like his dad and he tells me he is the brownest he's ever been, so that should be…

Hi SHIRLEY, Michael is coming home from Europe, having crossed over Jackies place in his air canada plane on the way back I expect. I shall be glad to see him tucked up nicely in his home in Ontario tonight. I usually see him once a week, so I've really missed him. I wonder why, when one types USA, UK, or say Italy, MFP…

Good morning girls! My wandering boy (son) is on a plane heading for Canada at the moment PATSY and I for one will be very glad when his feet hits terra firma, and talking about feet, I had just settled down for a nice cuppa and my latest whodunit when I was startled to hear heavy boots above my head. The builder boss was…

Holy terrors!

Night light

I think either me or the MFP is having some sort of breakdown. I couldn't get on for the last 5 hours and I thought I'd lost you gals for good after yesterday's shenanigans. Just checked again and I'm back!

WELCOME HOME JACKIE. Wonderful to read all went well! Anne!

Hot flash!

Act normal

Rash act

Think I've managed it. I had 2 email addresses, have eliminated the one I suspect is the culprit and rarely use. Anne.

SANDY, I use an iPad only. I believe I have an anti virus. Unfortunately, Mike, my expert is in Rome.

SANDY, I eliminated everything in my outside email (not MFP stuff) and that seems to have solved the problem. I couldn't keep up eliminating all the stuff (which I had never written) on the comment box until I deleted everything on the email site. Quite eye opening; some of it. Anne.

I've just had rather a disturbing thing happen. I posted a comment on my home page and instead of the comment, it showed instead emails I have received and sent and nothing to do with MFP. The main culprit was a very long email I had received from the UK featuring photos and it was the sort of thing you could forward to…

BUZZ, the other nightshade plant is potatoes, or the green bits on the skins, but potatoes I can't give up. A staple for me like rice is to the Asians. Fortunately, no problems with potatoes! Dear Jackie, yes, we are all with you that's for sure. ANNE

Just remembered. Can you remember ages ago I mentioned that I'd read that tomatoes and peppers are a suspected cause of arthritis? Well I gave them up and the severe pain in my knee and finger joints disappeared. Now, it maybe wasn't the tomatoes fault, but in fact my walking every day was the cure. So.......I've just done…

Me too PATSY, wifi being the culprit with my Michael as well. I guess it was maybe easier in the days of wooden sailing ships and silence for months on end. Modern technology is both a blessing and a curse! I Keep forgetting to put my shoes on BUZZ, a lifetime habit is hard to break! I'm trying to remember. I LOVE the new…

LIN, just had an early lunch (we are painting window frames etc this pm) and I made your roast veggie recipe exactly as you wrote, and thoroughly enjoyed a good mixture of potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, onions, etc etc, so thank you. Those poor deprived ice cream, pie, brownie guzzling parishioners haven't a clue what they…

12:30 and the roofers are gone. It looks great, the roof, and the chap next door, into building before he retired, said he thought it a job well done, and a good crew, which of course is good enough for me! I've just got the dumpster left behind and a couple of packets of leftover tiles to be picked up so......I'm just…

Quick good morning everybody before the roofers arrive to attack the garage this time. Thanks for the warning about stray nails PHOEBE because I do have the terrible habit of running around without shoes, even outside! I agree with you about parishioners of all people criticizing! PHYLLIS! good to hear (read?) from you…
