I'll admit we were suppose to pull a permit, but homeowners can perform any work on their house as long as it is up to code. If what you say were the case, very few homeowners would be able to collect on a fire claim. Cindy Hamilton |

Then everyone can discuss it. :) As you wish! :-D This will be lunch today: Baked beans made from scratch (starting with dried beans). Once cooked, I'll add some homemade tomato sauce, mustard powder, organic onions and green pepper. Also a nip of raw sugar mixed with molasses.(aka brown sugar) A small mix of other spices too from my health food store. Bake in 9x13 dish at 350f until thickened and tasty. About 40 minutes. Steak sandwiches: Very thinly sliced prime ribeye along with sauteed onions (not carmelized, just soft). Fresh mushooms would be good too but I don't have any. Nice deli mild cheddar cheese. All served on bakery italian bread, sliced thin and lightly toasted in a frying pan with a coating of olive oil and butter. A small potato, cut up and lightly fried in olive oil until nicely browned. Salt and lots of pepper added after cooking. Dessert, if desired, will be a small bowl of all natural Häagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream. Note: the kangaroo is here visiting me for the weekend. She can tell you about my lunch menu if anyone cares. |

Please refresh my memory. I don't yak about stuff that I know little or nothing about. I did fall asleep at a Moroccan restaurant once and was jolted awake by a light misting of orange water to my face. Perhaps that's what you're referring to. Let me state unequivocally that orange water sprayed on your face is going to be the hottest trend this season on the mainland. No, you didn't say anything about Middle Eastern food. But you constantly say that Asian food of some sort or another is taking over the world. Cindy Hamilton |

My guess that most of the world's food is already Asian food of some sort or another. What I've been saying it that Asian/Hawaiian food is getting popular on the mainland. Let me know if this is not true. |

I made it extra spicy because I need a little more excitement in my life. My wife took a bite and started coughing and choking. Not a good sign. After a minute or so, she said that she had inhaled some pepper into her lungs. The dish caught her off guard. She then said it was awesome. Ha ha. OTOH, I have to rethink this dish. It was so spicy that it completely obliterated the taste of the bitter melon. I have to make this dish with very little heat because the whole point of bitter melon is its bitter taste. Now I know. |

That was when married women stayed home and looked after the household chores while the husbands went out to earn money. Laundry day was a lot more than sorting the items, sticking them into machines and watching soap operas until it was time to change load. My mother had a washing machine that was a big tub with a powered agitator and a wringer attachment on top. Water and detergent went into the tub and was agitated. Then the water was drained and everything went through the wringer to remove the soap. The the there was clean water to rinse the stuff, and then it went through the wringer again. After that it went on the line, either outside in the fresh air or hanging from ropes strung on the ceiling. It was an all day job. |

My grandmother had an automatic washer that was functionally identical to the one I have now (perhaps without the "permanent press" setting). And a dryer. Her sister hung on to the old tub washer with a mangle much longer; I remember seeing it in her basement in the 1960s. Cindy Hamilton |

I did not qualify for CPP until age 60 and old age pension at 65, but I was retired and collecting a full pension at 53. I had a job from which I retired. John has not worked in years and does not have a job from which he can retire. I suppose there is that expectation that someone his age should still be working and there may be some point at which he can satisfy himself that he is old enough that he does not need to look for work anymore. |

BJs stores are all over around here, it's a chain of very large stores that sell many products from furniture, to TVs, to tires, and especially foods in bulk at wholesale prices... many restaurants buy there. A membersip is required but we more than make up the $25 cost in one shopping trip. https://www.bjs.com/content?template=B&espot_main=BopicPageEspot |

I'll bet you don't have places like that in your town. We don't live in a town, we live in a rather small Village with only one small food market. But large stores are not far way, BJs is about a 20 mile drive and we shop there about once a month... very good savings for buying by the case. |

Growing up in the 50s I remember a lot of broken glass everywhere. Cans were rare and people would toss bottles anywhere and everywhere. We used to get a lot of money for candy by returning bottles we found. Despite the fact that drinking and driving has been illegal for years there are still lots of beer, wine and liquor bottles laying on the side of roads. Water bottles and togo coffee cups are the main litter. |
