Not a suitable recipe for you, but this isnt at all a 'plain' dish.  Msde
right, it has as many as 40 different things in it, though 20 is more common.

Bit of both I presume.  It's funny as he's not nearly so well behaved with
Don as with me.

Slight break, horrors!  Charlotte was out playing and I forgot to feed Cash!
Normally she does that.  Sorry Cash, poor thing was famished!  2 hours late!

Now he's full and Cash became Crash (as in on the sunroom sofa).

Sorta the idea.

Meantime.  Quiet whispers to Charlotte as we plot Don's birthday.  It's not
fancy as we don't get big into birthdays, but got him 3 things.
- A long extendable tube thing that plugs to the hose for washing out the
gutters (or scraping if the leaves arent too bad yet).  Should save time.
- A haloween yard thingie that hangs in the tree and makes scarey noises (3
AA batteries)
- A bird seed bell so he can hang it then watch the cat and dog go nuts over
the birds
