Howdy Ruth!

-> 
-> ->  hn> I usually don't freeze things in foil anymore
-> ->  hn> though, use ziploc bags.
-> 
-> -> Sometimes I've had to use foil with things like lasagne.  Most of the
-> -> time stuff goes into zip lock or vaccuum bags tho.  Got more pint size
-> -> freezer bags at Harris Teeter tonight.
-> 
->  hn> I mostly use foil to line things that are

-> 
-> I don't use foil in the freezer very much any more.  I don't think
-> there's anything in either freezer (chest floor one or one on top of the
-> fridge) in foil.
-> 
Nothing in my freezer iw foil wrapped.

-> -> Paitence, grasshopper. (G)
-> 
->  hn> Yup.
-> 
-> Wonder how many young folks know that line.  Same as in last night's
-> class the seminary president spoke to us.  Several times he alluded to
-> things but then said something on the order of "but you girls are too
-> young to remember that".  He didn't take into account there were a few
-> not so young girls in the class that would know what he alluded to.
->
Just tell him you're NOT the same Ruth
he met at the well ! (grin)
 
-> -> -> surgery.  Don't try to do a lot of cooking too soon--and do more jobs
-> -> -> sitting down (chopping stuff up for example) for a while.
-> 
->  hn> I'm up for a bit, then back down. I try
->  hn> not to do too many standing and walking
->  hn> things in a row.
-> 
-> Same here.  I just finished the clean up from supper before curling up
-> on the love seat with my lap top.  I did do some of the dishes in spurts
-> so I could watch Jeopardy but when it finished, I finished the dishes
-> (maybe 15 minute's worth of work at the end).
-> 
I tend to do it in segments as well. 
I'll fill the sink with dishes and run the
hot water, and let them soak a bit 
before I wash and rinse htem.
And I let them air dry!

-> -> I understand, just don't over do; it's very easy to do so.
-> 
->  hn> I hope I'm being prudent enough, doc will
->  hn> let me know if I'm not!
-> 
-> She will read you the riot act if neccessary.
->
She thought I was doing extraordinarily
well.
-> 
-> ->  hn> Made a nice beef stew yesterday, today
-> ->  hn> will make baked chicken. Doesn't take much
-> ->  hn> to prepare.
-> 
-> -> We had an easy do supper.  On our last major run to Whole Foods 
Market,
-> -> I bought about 3-4 cups of a dry barley/bean soup mix.  I put a cup of
-> -> it on to soak last night.  Today I browned some beef soup bones, pulled
-> -> them out and then lightly sauteed some chopped orange and green bell
-> -> needed a bit of salt but overall, really good.   Fresh hot biscuits
-> -> would be good with it.
-> 
->  hn> Sounds good, I usually have a supply of
->  hn> dried goods around the house so that I
->  hn> don't need to buy a "mix". But I have
-> 
-> I'm still restocking from letting our supply go down a bit prior to our
-> move 6 months ago.  I had some beans and such but not a wide 
assortment.
-> I'll pick up more on our next trip to WFM.
->
Made navy beans and ham today
fill the crock and let it go. 
should be ready for dinner tonight!
 
->  hn> done so on occaision! I make it pretty
->  hn> much the way you do as well.
->  hn> Plus any leftovers in the fridge usually
->  hn> find their way in as well!
-> 
-> We didn't have any suitable left overs. I reheated the left overs I'd
-> put in the fridge for lunch today--just as good, if not better than the
-> first time around.
->
I usually have some odd bits that 
will go in.
 
chat with you soon!
