Lucky you if it was just nibbles!  They ate everything this year.  I got some
goodies then they got the rest.

It all just seems to metl seamlessly now.  Last night was corn and a sort of
mexican-southern pork loin slices.  From my early southern habits and my time
in San Diego where I picked up western mexican faire.  Uses alot of the same
spices as Italian but the blend is completely different in proportions.

Yes, she will.  Drivers test was put off due to a combination of weather and
things like that, but now she's up for it.  It showed her the lot at the mall
we will use for starters (with the subtle bribe of a short mall trip).  I
won't put her on the interstates until she's been driving quite a while.

No doubt!  Right now she's hunting the wilds of the sunroom behind the
curtins.
