Hi Nancy,

Yes, that's true.  I do love their pulled pork <g>.  This week has been 
absolutely nutso though because Ron's aunt fell and broke her hip (again, other 
side this time) this past weekend.  So we're running back and forth to/from the 
hospital.. but from what the hospital told us this morning, Ron and his aunt 
will be investigating other rehabilitation options at a rehab nursing home, for 
example, instead of rehab in the Cayuga hospital.  It was determined that Aunt 
Gert can't tolerate the 6-hour a day rehab necessary (I think it was 6hours a 
day at least). :(

Anyway, running to hosptial sure puts a damper on cooking.. so last night we 
enjoyed a bowl of Lasangne soup from a local place.. it was good :)  I have a 
beef tongue in my 'frige I bought to cook this week, guess I'll have to wait a 
bit to cook that.  Thankfully it's an easy one to cook, and so good :) The 
cook-by/use-by/freeze-by date is sometime in the next two weeks so that is good
:)

I know what you mean there.  Generally, it's good food, but I find they give 
you too much food haha.. Right now I'm still trying to build up my appetite 
after that chest infection I had and the soup-frenzy that I was on <grin>

I have some not totally ripe pumpkins sitting under plant lights in the living 
room... they are ripening there, so that's great :)

Take care,
Janis
