Hi Ruth,

-> We've pretty much left the tv off.  If I were watching, Steve would come
-> in and watch instead of doing his school work.  He can't afford that so
-> it's best to just get updates in the paper or on the news.

 RH> Logical. Not nearly as much fun, but logical.

Much better for the studies anyway.

->  RH> And a coffeepot.

-> No, just an electric tea kettle or hot pot.  Instant coffee or the one
-> cup brewers are the way to go, don'tcha know?

 RH> Uhmm, no.  Not if you want to drink actual coffee.


That's what Starbucks is for. (G) Something to boil water for the ramen
type noodles is good enough.  Instant coffee so you don't have to cook
and clean up the "kitchen" or waft aromas of cooking thruout the
hallways and vents of other apartments.

-> AZ is white.  It's high enough to do tall cans withoug dangling them
-> over the edge of a counter too; I insisted on that.

 RH> Smart move.  White is OK, but avocado would indicate antique status.


Yes, I remember it all too well.

->  RH> I keep a Gerber in my embroidery bay; does that count?  I just keep
 RH> a
->  RH> scissor in my purse.
 RH> ->
-> Only if your embroidery bag goes as many places as your purse does. (G)

 RH> Not nearly.

I've got you beat then. (G)

->  RH> and chase me down if I did that.

-> Don't know what either of my grandmothers would do; both my mom and MIL
-> are used to the way I do things like that.  They both peel the apples.

 RH> Well, that is traditional.  The idea of eating peels in pie just
 RH> sounds wrong.

Don't knock it till yu've tried it.  Adds some more fiber to the diet.


->  RH> I wouldn't know.  On the other hand, I had one who thought bacon
 RH> was
->  RH> catfood.

-> Read the labels on cans or bags of the top ones like Beneful, Purina
-> One, etc.  If they list an animal but not as just "animal parts" (e.g.
-> beef but not beef parts) you know you've got a good one.  There are
-> enough ads on tv too, that should give an idea of what's out there.

 RH> I usually buy Iams or Hills Science Diet.  My cats prefer Friskies
 RH> junk food for the canned stuff though.

We didn't ask our pets; we just put it down and it was eaten.  Did get a
bag of lamb & something dogfood for Sam once; he wasn't thrilled but at
it anyway.  OTOH, Jenny cat went on a hunger strike when faced with lamb
& rice cat food.
