I get upset when I see people giving any kids beer ('he has to know what it
tastes like')... :(

hehe.. he holds me up quite a bit sometimes (grin) Especially when my legs are
'under the weather'.

They'll be handy to have, no doubt.  At one point when we were taking care of
Ron's mom, I did the same thing for her.. I filled her freezer with months of
frozen dinners that I made from scratch.. I'd gotten upset at her eating  tv
dinners :(

In my case, I know any ill-effects I have are temporary.. I may pay for
overworking myself on one day, but the next day I'm generally ok.  Still Ron
does the same thing Steve does (g).

Hmm... touchy area (vbg).  Maybe he will :)  They are both such picky eaters
... both of her parents are doctors on staten island and she is a great
person.. very intelligent. But neither of them have been eating what I would
consider good food.. til very recently (smile).

Take care,
Janis
