The Basil Bit the Dust

I was so sad to see it go, but I knew it would not survive long once I brought it inside.  It never does.

As it left my kitchen another food enhancer entered.

Thanks to my MIL's green thrumb, I now have individually separated cloves of pungent garlic...lots of them. They should last a few months if kept in a cool dry place.

I wanted to take a moment to welcome KS, who is also from Michigan. She said she has been reading for a year and made her first comment yesterday. A BIG MI welcome and thanks for taking the comment plunge! I hope you will continue to comment whenever you have something to say.

In my last post I was complaing because it was taking CC so long to send my order. Well, I found out they did mail it out last week; they  just sent the email notice to the wrong account. They can't seem to keep my email correct. It is supposed to be here tomorrow, which is perfect since I am leaving for a little birthday getaway immediatley after work.  That is I was planning to getaway until I read the weather forecast: LAKE EFFECT SNOW IS EXPECTED TO BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES THIS EVENING AND CONTINUE THROUGH LATE THURSDAY NIGHT. ACCUMULATIONS IN EXCESS OF 10 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE FROM TONIGHT THROUGH DAYBREAK FRIDAY.


It's not looking too good for a Thursday escape.

Someone asked what day my birthday was.  It is Sunday.

How old? Well, here is the answer: the year I was born is the age I will be.

Betty R -- it's not hard to figure out at all. There is only one possible age I could be that would be the same year I was born.  I know you can figure it out! LOL.
