HAPPY BIRTHDAY Allie.
-
I got a huge bag of big mushrooms when I helped at food program. Need to figure out what to do with them. I prefer the white ones but hey, they were free. Thinking I will grate them(in the food processor)then saute them down. They are firmer than the white ones after cooking. A bit tough when I have cooked them before.…

so glad to read you finally got your letter. Make extra copies so work can't say they didn't get it or it got lost and they want another one(that is what happened with dh)
-
Tracey- can you go to the doctor's office and remind them that you need the letter, like last week!. Stay there until they give it to you.

They think that when they tell her, she will shut down and not try to enjoy what ever time she has left.

Update from Destiny's mom: We are not saying anything to des all she thinks is that the blood she is coughing up is from her throat or her nose bleeding down her throat . Which could be what is actually happening they really do. Not know So today was fairly a good day for her. She got up and was in less pain than the day…

my raspberries are starting to ripen. I picked about a quart of them on Friday afternoon to take up to mom. She loves them. Today, Ezie and I went out and picked some for her to have with her lunch. She loves doing that.

Got home this morning. Long and stressful weekend but mom had a good party which is the reason I was there. Rushed home this morning after a late night to be home in time for my daycare girl and she came in 2 1/2 hrs late. Mom took the day off because their dog died last night. Have 6 pages to read to catch up here.

Heading to mom's for the weekend- her 80th birthday- Will check in Monday. Have a great weekend Debbie Napa Valley, CA

do you like cinnamon tea? I get one called Good Earth Sweet and Spicy. A strong cinnamon flavor but naturally sweet so no honey needed so 0 calories and it is herbal so no caffeine to keep you up. Amazon carries it but check other places as they don't have the best price. I have been drinking it for a few years and love…

sorry the interview didn't go well. At least she was up front with you about her not staying long. Better that than spending all that time training her and having her give a two week notice. Hopefully you will find a couple really good ones soon.

I'm clear, your turn
-
I think I have come up with a compromise that will work fine for me but also for my daycare girl's mom. I haven't talked to her about not watching Ezie anymore and I am glad I didn't. My idea is to continue to watch her but only two days a week and for it to be Thursday and Friday(now it is 4 days a week , M,T,W, F). The…

great news- thanks for sharing
-
your comment to Allie is great. That would be perfect for her. Mom has always canned. I have helped a LOT but am nervous when it comes to using her big pressure cookers(she has two of the really large ones).I will help but don't see me doing it on my own. Mom canned or froze almost all of our food growing up. Grandma did…
-
Machka- did you go or at least schedule your 6month full body scan? (Just a gentle reminder if you haven't) Hard to believe our surgeries were already over 6 months ago Debbie
-
Thanks for sharing your stories- love the ones about Corey and his cooking/canning. That is amazing. Something he can do that makes him so happy and so yummy later!! Debbie Napa Valley,CA

I couldn't get enough of that tiny little one. I was snuggling it all the time, even had it in the little beanie hat stuffed in the front of my tank top. It loved it, went right to sleep- liked being warm. I would pet it's little head and his eyes would close right away. Would have been fun to keep it but not right for…

Welcome Pamela- This is a great group, full of ladies with amazing suggestions and a lot of support. The thing that helps me is walking a lot. Most of my walking is done at the wetlands You are right about food prep. That makes a big difference Debbie Napa Valley,CA

Sounds like my mom. She did shoot a rattle snake once and I am sure she has shot other things. I have killed a few rats with a trowel and drowned a few. Dh just yells for me and can't understand how I can do it. Ummm, I don't want rats around and I want them to die instantly. Better than on a glue trap or something like…

he really was a cutie but knew it was best for him to be with a buddy and not in the house with 8 cats. Plus, no place to raise him here.
-
there are some great salt free alternatives. I just picked up a few. Trying to lower sodium as dh has high blood pressure. Mrs.Dash has some great ones. I just got a low sodium one from McCormicks(Safeway had them on sale really cheap $1.49 with coupon)

I planted Shasta daisies last year and they are just about ready to bloom. Just one plant but looking forward to seeing it bloom. First time growing them.

No clue at all where the little one came from. We have never seen turkeys around MIL's area . We have seen Canadian geese recently at the park but not turkeys-They are in other areas of town this past year. I see them around the wetlands. They are considered non-native so the one rescue wouldn't take it. The other place…
-
update- we are taking the baby TURKEY up to wildlife rescue now. took a while to find a place- two places don't take turkeys. One didn't want to take it because it was found in another county but did end up taking it because the other places don't take non-native birds/animals. Super nice up there. They were happy to get…
-
Pretty sure the guy at Tractor Supply is wrong. Thinking it is a wild turkey! Looks and sounds just like one. He made it through the night. I was up every two hours turning the heating pad on(it has a auto shut off of up to 2 hrs). Has special chick food and medicated water. I just contacted a bird rescue group to see…
-
mom said the same thing about the markings. The guy at Tractor Supply said an Easter egger or some other chicken. Mom has Aracana/Easter Egg chickens so will fit in there if it doestnt belong to MIL's neighbor. He also said most likely wont survive being the only one. Going to try. All I can do. Cats are ignoring it for…

check out what dh came home with. It was downstairs at his mom's house- She had left the door open and it went in and she couldn't get it out. Dh went over- called me, said there was a bird in her house. He took the picture and sent it to me- thought it was going to be a sparrow or other wild bird- nope, baby chick. Must…

I have one hydrangea and it is the same color- Had two but one didn't survive the winter. This one is doing well. I have to prune back the jasmine as soon as it is done blooming so I can really see the hydrangea. Going to try taking some cuttings of a purple one and see if I can get it to grow.
