Chris, whoops. i didn't mean chemo. i meant radiation. my elderly brain synapses got crossed....:loco:

Trudy, it's not ear wax. it feels like my skin is irritated (inside my ear holes) and it itches. nothing wrong further in with my eardrums. hope you had a super walk. i was out in the sunshine today, too, and WOW, it makes a difference in my mood!! Nancy, ah, the joys of older homes, eh? i...

Jane, isn't Skype THE best???? honestly, of it wasn't for Skype, my grandkids wouldn't know me at all. wish we had a minor leagie hockey team around here. we have The Penguins, but watching the hungry guys in the minors is so much fun!! Trudy, you Cleaning Tornado, you!! send me some energy...

Chris, thinking of you RIGHT NOW!! T, almond flour bread sounds a lot better than it is in real life. it's supposed to be a "bread alternative" for those of us who don't eat grain. don't think of some lovely, sweet, light bread tasting of almond extract. think of a dense, moist thing tasting of...
