One Wednesday I did some errands.... Safeway, PetCo, Brian's
office, and then met up with Bill and Jeannie at the Elk's Lodge. They were
having a BLT and it sounded good. I ordered one too. Brought half home. Eric
makes the BEST BLTs!!!! That was dinner.. Bread toasted, mayonnaise, good
tomato, and SUPER CRISPY bacon!
Last night was reruns of the veggie/ravioli
concoction. Soooo good! That orange juice along with the chicken stock was a
great idea!
OK, now this made me drool
immediately...

something else! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr............... It's still Christmas! It's
not 'Happy Holidays' it's MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hate it that the

country to suit the legal and illegal immigrants from around the world pushy
adam henry's have gotten the government to lean their way! The United States of
