  • I went to my organic store and I FOUND the beans I've been bugging you all about. Actually shelves and shelves of beans but no sign of anything named 16 Beans. I came home clutching Bobs Red Mill 13 Bean Soup Mix and will give it a go next week. Up to now I've used canned chick peas etc so this will be interesting! Mike…
  • Back to mood enhancer: Bad mood
  • Wow, us Sneakers all have hidden qualities when it comes to nightwear AND you bought the socks in Great Britain JACKIE? Maybe you should start a shipping business, because you can be assured Lin and I would be clamouring to buy your socks! Yes, you've stirred another memory of the coarse rush grasses we stepped on to avoid…
  • The lovely thing about jammies is; you can go as outrageous as you like. Who's to see them? Just pets or a hubby if you possess them! Where did you find the dog slippers LIN! Do they do them in cats! Haven't seen them in Canada! My new ones are just your run-of-the-mill suede/fleece moccasins, and I'm SO envious. Anne -…
  • My top is white with butterfly binding around the neck and short sleeves. I'm far to worried about burglars, fires, etc to go without a top, lol MARIE.
  • Oh MY, LIN, I LOVE your hello kitty sleep pants. I thought my butterfly pants were pretty exotic, but.....feel like doing a swap? Hi PHOEBE, I'm sorry you are still feeling unwell, no fun at all. My new year started with the tv going down, then the furnace stopping working and me tripping over the space heater in my socks…
  • The same as BUZZ, BARBIE and I wish you the very best. Good morning everyone, I woke up to another snowy morning the same as yesterday. It melted as the day went on. Maybe it will today. Anne.
  • Thanks for sharing the Dr. McDougall 10 day meal plan MARIE, now I have a better idea on how to cook beans. Anne.
  • Oh yes PATSY, I've noticed the spelling "correcting". In my case it can be quite funny if I don't check before posting. I see John thinks Mardi Gras is a bazaar, whilst I think YOU meant he thinks it bizarre! It all adds to life's rich tapestry. Wonders, this time MFP isn't changing anything here! Have fun everyone, Anne.
  • P.S. To add to the confusion, when I go to my home page I often find my name, but my accompanying photo is changed to a lady called Quilterbunny. I'm not complaining because Bunny is a very pretty lady, but it's very confusing, almost like waking up and finding the face you've been stuck with for years, gone! Apparently…
  • Happy snow day, never mind about happy Mardi Gras! No self respecting reveller would be out today in dear old Ontario, AND it's going to get colder by the weekend. Brrrrrrr. Maybe the gremlins were at work again yesterday, re the Sneakers versus Plant Discussion. I THOUGHT I'd posted a piece on vegan cheese products one…
  • HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR OF THE MONKEY! Super year for some but apparently not so good for little pigs, the year I was born in! Time will tell, lol. Enjoy wash day anyway, everyone! Anne.
  • SHIRLEY, thank you for the tip. I had a feeling you would know all about the beans. You were very wise avoiding the young lady with the pneumonia. JACKIE what a dreadful winter you and all the folk in the U.K. are having. Roy who lives up north tells me they are plagued with continuous cold, strong winds. It must have been…
  • Hello everybody, sorry I was clueless earlier asking what 16 bean stew/soup was. Lin and the Internet have clued me in. Apparently it's a package you buy for stews or soups. I don't know if it's available in Canada but I'll try and find out. I was imagining everybody using 16 different types of beans and was very…
  • Just to add, I rarely miss a day without potatoes. I think if I was allowed only one food that's what I'd choose, there are so many ways to cook them. Anne.
  • Stayed the same.
  • Nice surprise day for me, son Michael turned up with Cinders in tow. Cinders is always glad to see me, I am her favourite chicken person. She associates me with roast chicken now. Not that I often eat chicken but I make an effort when Michael and Cinders show up. Michael is a "grass widower" this week because Sandy has…
  • No LIN, you aren't suffering from hearing loss, that's how they speak "up North" in my old neck of the woods, ee bah gum (oh my word) yes! Talking of hair, I once took my then wee boys to a barber, and the barber said "they've got very thick hair, is their father the chap with the very thick hair who comes in?" I said yes,…
  • HAPPY 92nd BIRTHDAY MIKE!!! Anne.
  • SANDY, must add my tuppence worth of knowledge based on my own experience of weight loss. I wanted to be my 20 year old weight again. I had just about achieved this when I joined the Sneakers, but do you remember me asking advice about hair loss about 2 years ago? I was quite worried because it was coming out whenever I…
  • Unbelievable, the snowdrops are showing buds! Anne.
  • I think I'll join you MARCELLA. A recharge month sounds a super idea. I know some people like to keep some recipes especially for their families and for special occasions, but if you feel you can explain, what exactly is a 16 bean stew? I rarely eat meat, and then only chicken, so any help in the bean department would be…
  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GIRLS. JACKIE and CHRIS. Hope you both have the very best of years, Anne. ❤️❤️
  • Oh, it's CHRIS'S birthday as well. Another spring baby! HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRIS. Anne.
  • Hello, I bet you gals can't guess what I've been doing! Clue........6 deg right now, I believe that's about 44 deg F. I've been outside for 1 hour GARDENING! On February 1st in Canada! A first for me! I didn't get around to it last fall but the catmint has been running amok. So much so I was afraid the little snowdrops…
  • Yes it's the perfect day to stay indoors. I had CraveTV installed over Christmas, and for me, it makes a lot of sense with the extra $20 I pay a month. I'm up to date with Dr Who, and I'm now watching Murder in the First. 10 hour long episodes and I'm half way through. Sorry you are feeling sick Buzz, get well soon. Hope…
  • Yes Sandy that's the trouble maker, our little doggie girl Cinders. She was a year old last week. She's so black though, it's hard to see her sparkly eyes in a photo. Well, I went out today to buy some grippy slippers after the trip in my socks, and maybe a new iPad but....... True to form I did buy the slippers but....…
  • The photos are a joy Marcelle and so are yours Jeri. Hopefully I'm off to view new laptops or iPads today. This one is definitely on the way out. Anne
