I'm glad to hear it's not more serious, Cat
I just finished straightening up, putting dishes away, etc. Now I'm going to scan some more pics from a neighbor's album. I volunteered to be the historian for our neighborhood civic league and a neighbor loaned me a photo album his parents put together for his uncle: pictures of homes and businesses around the neighborhood with the names of people who had lived there for a long time. I'm hoping to collect stories about them from older neighbors.
Some of the structures are no longer here, like the old train depot. At the turn of the 20th century, my neighborhood was a resort area with boarding houses and piers into the river with trolley service from downtown.
I just stopped in to pay my respects regarding Kadesma's passing as I know there is strength in numbers and it was better to be here than by myself.
It is good to see some familiar names.
I have a shout out to Pacanis if he is still kicking around the place - I got my hands on a 2 year old Balderson cheddar and am savouring every bite!
Not sure when I will be back. My health conditions have escalated and I am not on the computer all that much. But I love you all.
Thanks, Pac. My epitaph will be "She gave the world mushrooms gratin"! And that's just fine with me!Kicking around? I try to kick something every day
Nice to see you again. I thought of you a couple weeks ago when I was eating some mushrooms gratin
And Kadesma's passing? I must have missed something last night...
Winding down from a busy day enjoying my glass of wine. Wishing my ankles were only half their age instead of feeling twice their age. Anyone know of really comfortable yet reasonably priced shoes for crabby feet? At this point I don't even care if they're what I used to call "Nun shoes".
Yeah, they are pricey. I paid about $170 for a pair and they aren't very pretty. They are comfortable. I didn't want to pay that much, but finding shoes that fit isn't easy for me (C width feet with bunions). It's harder in Canada than in the US or Europe.I wanted to suggest "ecco"-shoes to you, but they are even more expensive in the US than here....
You could try with some good outdoor/walking shoes.. I made good experience with that, too..
Taxlady, your picture was "forbidden" for me.
try this for that picture .. and they do look very comfy

Hmmm. Maybe it's only visible to Canadians?
