====================================================================
Hi Hap,

-> Back again after supper and clean up.  We had a multi grain/legume,
-> mixed vegtable, chicken stock with meat, diced tomato soup with drop
-> biscuits and a small green salad.  Good rib sticking food.

 HN> MMmmm! This past week I made a very
 HN> hearty mushroom soup. This coming week
 HN> I'll make a split pea with ham and maybe
 HN> a beef or chicken stew. I've gotten the
 HN> freezer fairly empty so there's room for
 HN> some leftovers in there again.

Defrosting the freezer first or is it a frost free?  I've got chicken
and bulgar with veggies (onion, celery, carrots, garlic, mushrooms) on
the stove.  When I made it the first time years ago, we had a tough old
chicken so we called it bulgar & buzzard.  That name has sort of stuck.
(G)  Oh, it also called for broccoli but I'm subbing in green beans and
tossing in the rest of the chick peas that didn't make it into the
hummus.

-> hummus
-> tomorrow.  It's -> going to be a staple for us.

->  -> hn> We use it as  a veggie dip, and it takes to hn> additional
->  flavors very well, peppadews, hn> green or ripe olives, roasted red

-> Steve added some chipotle to what he had for lunch and liked it.  I had
-> to get some blood work done this morning, then we went further into

-> After leaving that, we were headed home and saw someone holding a sign
-> for lamb gyros/$3.99 at our favorite place--so we stopped in and got a
-> couple to go.  That, with some home made hummus was lunch.

 HN> Sounds like a good lunch
 HN> to me!!

We got a flyer for this place shortly after moving here & decided to try
it out.  There's another, similar place just outside of town but this
one is just a bit better.


-> On the flight over and back from Israel (on a 777) we had individual
-> entertainment systems built into the seat backs.  Quite a few movies
-> were offered so Steve watched "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs".  I
-> was watching something else so when we finished, he told me it was good.
-> We had enough time that I watched it a bit later.  Cute; we bought it
-> after we got home.

 HN> Have you seen Julie and Julia yet? Very good!
 HN> and we also liked UP a computer animated
 HN> movie as well...very well done!!

We bought UP but haven't watched it yet; we have enjoyed Pixar movies
over the years.  We own most all of them from 2004 or so on & were
watcing "Finding Nemo" with Rachel & David while she was in labor with
Robert.  Steve didn't get to finish it until quite some time later; he
left the labor room when things got going hard & we turned the movie
off.  We've not seen Julie & Julia yet but have read about it.  My
grandmother used to enjoy watching Julia "at work".

Catch you later,
