  Hey there CoCo,

  Maybe everyone's working now. Tomorow bump it, as most will be on their day off.

  For me, when I have a day to myself . I like to cook something special. Usually involving pasta. Something sumputiously fattening. Blast the music and sip on a good Cab. Some for me and some for the sause. I like having my kids over for dinner as they think I can cook no wrong. I send all leftovers home with them. LOL

  Or watch some classic movies with my cat sleeping on my feet, while makeing jewelry or painting simple sumi-e cards to send to family. My Aunt is turning 80 soon. Tomororw out with the paints.

  Come summer I like working in the garden.

  Not to exciting , but relaxing.

  What do you like to do?

  Thank You clarity,

  Looking at the bar of soap, on line, in it's package, I do remember it very well. I lived way out in the boonies and the dogs and bambinos would always bring in poison oak. We were always sharing the blisters. I used it alot and I love the smell of it. It brings back many a memorie of having to miss meetings due to having poison oak. Oh, darn.

  I think this will be my grand-bambinos and I next project when they visit. Make it all pretty in nice big maison jars to share , like someone suggested.

  Sorry imallcool,

  I dont make bread, I make bricks.

  For the longest time I tried to be a good little wife and make bread. I always ended up with a two ton brick. I gave up.

  Watching a cooking show, later in life, I realized I kept my whole wheat flour in the freezer [worried about it going rancid] and I wasnt letting it get to a nice room temp. It was killing the yeast. I am not a baker. It's to technical. I love to cook. I can screw it up and fix it usually. I dont need a recipe or to measure anything.

  Just as well as I am like Rippie , I would eat the whole damn thing.

  They should make a ladies perfume of warm bread and strawberry jam. Who needs Channel No. whatever

  It seems that gentle souls feel all ranges of emotion rather intensly. This can be good , but it can also leave you feeling raw and naked to the world.

  Stay with your true , safe, stable freinds. Wrap them around you like a warm blanket against a sometimes cold world.

  Much love to you too,

  Eva

  WoW,

  Sounds like a good money saving recipe Satanus.

  I'm tired of spending alot on gentle detergents and double rincing everything. I have over sensetive skin and strong scents give me a headache.

  Like the suggestion on the fabric softener too. I can have some fun with my essentail oil collection using this method.

  Thanks for posting this.

  Dear happy@last,

  I hope everything goes well for you today. I admire your courage and strength to stand up for yourself , even if it has been many years. I hope you find the desired closer.

  How you wrote of the snow falling gave me a sense of calm. Maybe this is your touchstone for inner peace during this time.

  My thoughts are with you today.

  Let us know how it went .

  Hugs

  Hi there Hortensia,

  Funny, I was thinking about you today, wondering how you were doing.

  Sounds like you had a mixed bag on your trip. The birds sound beautiful . I'm happy to hear all went well with your family.

  Double curses to the sick dude on the plane.
