Have not gone outside for a walk since last fall. Will go when the snow and ice is gone, afraid of falling. As far as wildlife we hear the coyotes most nights and see the odd one going across the fields. Lately have been watching a couple of porcupines, they are very interesting to watch. This...

Last year I did a major cleanout in the kitchen. Thought that would do for awhile BUT I see now that I must deal with those plastic lids etc. Thanks to you people I now have some ideas on how to do that. I never thought of using a box to stand those lids. Odd as I use a lot of baskets to...

Josie, Sorry hear about your trip to the hospital, hope all is well now. I am going to try the cheese ones as soon as I can get some cheese. I also found a great apple recipe on that site so thanks again. Your friend Grandma Rose

Kathleen, The crackers were really great, crispy and tasty. Mine were thin but you could have whatever thickness you wanted, just roll them out as thin as you want. Grandma Rose

In reply to Spork about apron design. Mine is very close to the apron that has been shown by Beth. I made my own pattern to fit my needs but it is not reversable. Grandma Rose

Does anyone have recipes for pork hocks besides soup? I have some in the freezer but not sure what to do with, not soup. Grandma Rose:wacko:

The aprons of today are mostly useless in my mind so I make my own. I like the kind that wrap around a person. That prevents the stains that come from wiping hands on your sides. Grandma Rose

Kathleen Good idea. When I say short I mean short for living expenses. I am out looking for work all the time plus checking on line. It is not easy in Canada to take some of the advice I have gotten but I do thank-you for the imput. Grandma Rose

I really appreciate the support. Some suggestions were very good but I don't think they really apply. Thanks anyway. Grandma Rose
