RH> CS> RH>Good, plus tell her for baptism you're "dunked" vs sprinkled.

RH> CS> Hehehe ok.  I am not sure if that is what Tina meant but she's one of
RH> CS> those religious folks who are accepting of anything, a gem rare to
RH> CS> find sorry to say.

RH>She will make friends easily over there.

She has.  She's a fixture now like Elise.  Fast worked her way into our
hearts and souls.  The 'flock' decend on her every day and she's learned
how the 'flock parents' deal with that so easily.

She's even learned how to flock feed our resident jewish family (no
cheese or other dairy in a meat dish and only some of the seafood types
we use here allowed). Just like me, she's always got something simple
ready to go for them too.

You should see the littlest girl Sarah inhale blue lake canned green
beans with a little sesame oil and enoki 'shrooms with a side serving of
rice and my adobo chicken.

RH> CS> Elise took her to Tonoo today but we were too busy packing as you can
RH> CS> grabbed all our blue-freezer-blocks and tucked them in various
RH> CS> carriers (cant ship those apparently).

RH>Hmmmm, we shipped them from Germany to the states, then to HI & back.

Apparently not allowed from here?  Maybe they are worried they would
leak when it gets hot in the container.  Dunno.  Just know you cant ship
them back stateside from here.  You can ship spices to here, but not
back from here.

RH> CS> Tina and tribe had a ball.  The kids saw a wet patch on the sidewalk
RH> CS> and Elise regaled them with the story about me and the eel and said
RH> CS> {mysterious voice} 'It has never dried since'.  Then she pointed the
RH> CS> AC unit above drips there <g>.  Pert-near same spot actually!

RH> CS> (The story if you forget was my first time getting an eel, and it was
RH> CS> only stunned.  Silly gaijin lady went screaming when it tried to crawl
RH> CS> out of my cart and as I swung around (swinging my cart behind me) I
RH> CS> couldnt tell what she was freaking over.)

RH>I'd forgotten about that; thanks for the laugh.

Grin, made for a good 'spooky story'.  It was funny to hear Elise
repeating it and Charlotte telling me about it.  The story predates
Elise by several years of arrival.


RH> CS> Elise has her evil moments <g>.

RH>Don't we all?  I wish I could meet her face to face some time.

The world is a wonderful place!  Maybe it will happen some day?

RH>RH> CS> dressy.  Matched her bluejean skirt with the orangy patterned calico
RH>RH> CS> bottom.

RH> CS> RH>Sounds like 70s retro.  Had a laugh on our trip when we stopped at
RH> CS> the RH>camp Steve worked at in 1974.  He got a t shirt from the

RH> CS> I'm not sure about that setup Charlotte had as being retro, but the
RH> CS> shoes with it were possibly!

RH>Long jeans skirt with orange patterned calico at the bottom sounded
RH>retro to me.  Shoes were a bonus.

Oh the Blue jean part is short.  Maybe miniskirt level if that.  The
bottom is all calico.

RH> CS>  RH>BTW, I'm in agreement with the other RH--do not reuse (for
RH> CS> canning) the RH>flat lids. The seals on them are meant for one time
RH> CS> use only.  I've RH>canned for years, as has my mom and that's one of

RH> CS> No worries, we kinda knew that and canning isnt something we do here
RH> CS> unless it is with the parafin wax seal type.  Lid is practically
RH> CS> optional with that type.  Mostly folks here dry stuff or freeze it.

RH>OK,as an over lid, that's fine. You had me concerned for a bit that you
RH>were actually canning using recycled lids.  Looking out for your health.

I'll hit you up once we get stateside, along with Glenn on how to use my
pressure cooker.  I'd like to try 'canning' more than just making
jellies like i have done before.
