Morning all! Fran, I put in a bit more postage than what it was for me to mail my package to you. I don't think that I'll get back what I sent because we have a lot of veggie growers here, BUT if by chanace you dont have enough postage I'd be happy to send more if you need it to get my package back to me. I'm so glad that I bought the veggie seeds, I could almost hear how excited people were when I offered them up for grabs! Thank you to anyone who sent flowers in for me, I assure you that every single seed will find a good home. Lisa

Shirley, I am so terribly sorry to hear about the loss of your brother. You and your family are in my prayers. Melinda, Fran, and Sassy, thanks for catching those woopsies. I've done it a few times in my recipes too. Dianne, your daylily is beautiful and the Riverwalk is so peaceful looking. How lucky you are to have that near you! Thank you everyone for all the wonderful recipes! I am so excited and proud of everyone for all their contributions! This is a great bunch of people and I can't wait to get the finished product out to all of you who made this possible. Sassy, I wanted to say a special thank you to you sweetie. This was a fantastic idea and is a wonderful way of pulling together all these amazing people from all over the country. You are a great lady. Thank you! Ok, I am off to vote and then get back to sorting the recipes. Keep sending those pictures to me. You can post here or email them to me. Thanks gang! Tracy

Hi Sooz: They are on sale this week (mostly giant ones - like 4-5-6 #'s) at my favorite Asian market which I go to periodically. Store is: Ranch 99 - a well-known chain of Asian markets. The specific one we went to is in Irvine (Orange Co.)off of the Jeffrey exit on the 5 Fwy. You have to call first and ask the price bec. each market has their own pricing. The one here in S. Diego is almost double the cost. Their selection of fish is incredible - prob. 30-40 diff. fresh choices + live fish in tanks, too. Gardenguru: The recipe is so easy, you won't believe it! Go to your nearest Trader Joes (hopefully you have one near you) and buy their frozen sw. potato fries ... bake 'em in oven for 20 min.; they're delicious, crispy on outside and creamy on inside. Marigene: Thanks, Mar. Re: the rolls - HEY! I'm in Calif. - we don't HAVE those kind of rolls, to my knowledge. These actually worked quite well: they are from Costco and are more than normal & substantial hot dog rolls with good flavor, not your typical rolls. Just grilled them in butter and voila! arline

OOpps, I posted this for Wednesday, so I'm putting it here anyhow. I actually had it tonight. I had a sandwich of Christmas ham from the freezer, on Healthy Life 100% Whole Wheat, Whole Grain bread. I got the Bread at Kroger because it is a 1/2 loaf. Always wondered why some company doesn't package 1/2 loaves. The bread is especially good. Also had grape tomatoes and sliced cucumbers, and a couple spoonfuls of potato salad. Now I'm about to pop. Sue.
