Hi Janis,

Nice to be a "wanted" person. (G)

 JK> It's similar, from what I understand.

I'll probably give it a try when the the weather cools off.  Kinda hot
now. (G)

 JK> I bet your daughter will love to see you :)

She's looking forward to it.  We're hoping to be able to see our other
daughter on that trip as well.

I liked Wednesday's food and the sports section every day the best. (G)

>> > Sounds interesting, did she give you the recipe?  One of the other
>> No, I don't think so.  I'll have to ask her for it.

 JK> > I'd be interested in it too.

 JK> I'll see if I can get that this week.. They should be coming over to
 JK> pick up Alex later in the week.  He's done with 9th grade as of
 JK> Thursday, so he came by to stay a few days.  He doesn't get to come by
 JK> alone often, so he's really happy (no little brother pests) (g).

I understand that!  I've got an older brother, a younger one & 2 younger
sisters.


 JK> That boy can really clean up a roll of sushi :)  But he loves macaroni
 JK> as well, so I usually make something Italian when he comes.

 JK> > It's easy to do, popular and we use whole wheat pasta. (G)

 JK> I'm still using the mixed brands (it's whole wheat plus I guess normal
 JK> wheat), like barilla whole grain, etc, or I make my own dough.  It's
 JK> really hard for me to eat macaroni or spaghetti that is all whole
 JK> wheat still.. and actually right now with the ampyra drug I just
 JK> started, I'm lucky if I can eat much at all.. it's doing a real rough
 JK> job on my stomach, but I can walk a bit better.. (sigh).. sometimes
 JK> you wonder about the meds they give you.. :)

Can't win for losing.  Do you have to take it on an empty stomach or do
they let you have some food in your stomach with it?  That makes a good
sized difference in how you can tolerate some drugs.
