Hi Hap,

->  hn> "south" a bit and now I'm coughing as well.

-> Not fun at all; you have my sympathies. I've still got a bit of the
-> cough but overall, not nearly as bad as I was at the beginning of the
-> month.

 hn> It has not been bad, I've been doing
 hn> my best to keep from getting too congested.
 hn> So far it's working.

And now everything is pollenating like crazy. My poor sinuses are
clogging and the pine hasn't really come into full pollenation yet. I'm
hoping it'll wait another 10 days but I doubt it. Steve washed the car
on Friday and its already got a green sheen to it.

->  hn> No buffet's for us, It's our 38th anniversary on
->  hn> Thursday so I'm taking her "north" and we'll
->  hn> have a nice quiet lunch at some special spot.

-> Sounds like fun. You should get this before you head out so have fun and
-> happy anniversary. Going to take the scenic route up to wherever you're
-> going to eat?

 hn> We did take the scenic route. Went to
 hn> Seattle to a gallery showing where a
 hn> friend from eastern Canada has a
 hn> painting in the exhibition. Then up
 hn> into the mountains to an Indian
 hn> Casino for lunch. Long scenic
 hn> drive back home again.

Both of you feeling better then? Sounds like it was a good day for both
of you.

-> Steve noticed frost on the car but not the ground. Probably good that we
-> covered everything, just in case. Today was cold (mid 40s) and wet; some
-> more rain coming in tomorrow. But, it's supposed to be clear over the
-> week end--just in time for the Farmer's Market change over to the spring
-> to fall weekly schedule. Probably not this week but within a few weeks

 hn> It's been pretty warm here, but rainy.
 hn> mid 50's and muggy.

We had a high of 71, with a light breeze and sunny today. Had our Life
Group lunch outside. (G) But, we're supposed to get more rain and cooler
temps on Tuesday. We had several days of rain last week that helped with
the drought situation and hopefully Tuesday's rain will help even more.

->  hn> ALL dill pickles are worth buying!
->  hn> A good garlic dill or Kosher dill would
->  hn> be great for the eggs!

-> I don't want any pickles with HFCS in them. Wickle's sold out; when we
-> first got them a couple of years ago, they were made with sugar. Now
-> they're using HFCS in the pickles and pickle relish. We have taken them
-> off our "buy" list.

 hn> Dang it!! Just had to go and check all my
 hn> pickle jars!! Nalley's has no sugar at all.
 hn> Farman's (three different jars all dill) all
 hn> have sugar listed but it's way down on
 hn> the ingredient list...thank goodness no

But have you looked at sweet pickles? Most of them have the HFCS in them
now.

 hn> HFCS! I've written to Lea &Perrins that
 hn> I'm no longer going to use their
 hn> wochestershire sauce because it is
 hn> now an ingredient...didn't wanna have

I quit buying it too when I saw it in the listing. Lowe's foods brand
doesn't have it so I buy that.

 hn> to give up my pickles too! When I get
 hn> my enhanced Drivers license I can
 hn> go to Canada and get Worchestershire
 hn> sauce there...where HFCS ain't allowed!

I'd go too, if I lived closer to the border.
