Hey Ruth!

-> 
-> -> With just 2 of us, it lasts a lot longer than it used to. Deborah is
-> -> coming in tomorrow, leaving Sunday.  I wonder how much jerky will be
-> -> leaving with (or in) her. (G)
-> 
->  hn> Boy that's a short visit! too bad she couldn't stay over the whole
->  hn> holiday period!
-> 
-> We'll probably see her again Sunday night into Monday morning, then
-> after Christmas while we are out in Las Vegas.  Better some time time
-> than no time.  We took her out for local seafood Saturday night; she
-> really enjoyed that.
-> 

Any time at all is good time!   Amanda wanted 
to come up for Thanksgiving but being a starving
grad Student, couldn't finance that trip AND one 
at Christmas...and the Christmas one will be longer 
so..... Amanda and I will certainly enjoy some seafood
when she is here! 

-> ->  HN> I try to vary her meals from wraps to leftovers, to salads and 
always
-> ->  HN> a bit of fruits and veggies.
-> 
-> -> You've got it down to a science.
-> 
->  hn> I just try to keep it interesting. When I make a wrap for her I use
->  hn> low carb tortillas and usually use hummus as a spread then meat,
->  hn> shredded cheese or sliced, and finishing with shredded lettuce or
->  hn> clover sprouts. Fairly quick and easy to make and easy and non 
messy
->  hn> to eat!
-> 
-> If I'd had you making my school lunches when I was growing up, I might
-> like peanut butter now. (G)  Combination of a super tight budget for the
-> family (5 kids) and an uncreative cook for a mom, I avoid pb now.
-> 

I like PB, in fact I have a hard time
thinking of foods I DON'T like (grin)
which seems to be a big part of my 
problem with weight!

-> No brainer there. Even better, I usually do the clean up as well.

I'm doing last night's clean up this morning (grin)
