Hi Ruth,

-> wasn't typical textbook format.

 RH> It was all sheet music, which wouldn't be out of the realm of
 RH> possibility. Supplementary books can be in any and all formats,

Yes, I would imagine so. (G)

-> Depends on the beef, what kind of pan & how to cook it. (G)

 RH> I'll always take a free pan (G)  It may end up donated but I'll surely
 RH> take it.


I'd have to consider it.  Sometimes it takes a while for the intended
donation to actually take place.  In the meanwhile, there's the "where
do I keep this thing?" question that has to be taken into account before
I say "yes".

-> Small one, but small has lots of potential.  I've done lots of 3'x4'

 RH> It'll end up mixed with a bunch of other fabrics, so it could be 10x12
 RH> for all I know.  It all depends on what happens.


Yes, or it could end up small--fancy backing for baby doll quilts for
your niece and her friends.

-> that have been quite involved. The one I'm doing for Sarah now has 25
-> fabrics--4 each of the rainbow colors and a different backing.  The one
-> I did for her 2 years ago had 13 pinks, 6 each blues and greens.

 RH> It could get that bad; I'm not sure yet.


Not totally unimaginable.  Have you heard of Inchies?  Finished quilts,
one inch by one inch--quite detailed for the size.  No, I've not made
any.  The smallest pieces I'm cutting in my scrap reduction drive are
1 1/2" square.  That project is on hold for now, until I get the dress
done.


->  RH> You never know what you'll be able to find on the other end,
->  RH> especially if it's overseas.  I sent Carole S a care package or two
->  RH> over in Japan when she got desperate.

-> My MIL thought we couldn't get chocolate chips or peanut butter when we
-> were in Germany so she'd send chips, brought pb with her.  She was
-> surprised at the range of stuff the commissary carried. (G)

 RH> I have friends who went to Paris to study back in the 80s.  We shipped
 RH> peanut butter in for the kids.

Yes, not having a PX orcommissary nor privileges for them means finding
American goodies hard to find on the economy.  It might have improved
over the years but I suspect with the EU, probably not.  We saw things
like Danish butter in the commissary.

->  RH> It could be the Metro on the New Haven to NYC route!

-> I'll presume that it's not worth riding.

 RH> It's a commuter line, and gets lousy cars.  A lot of them are really
 RH> beat up

But, it gets you from here to there and that's what's important.
