 GJ> morbid discussion

There is an upside to aging. I recently pulled a back muscle. Neekha
isn't overly sympathetic ("Take you out and shoot you") but Lexi and
Charlee are waiting on me hand and foot. "Can you bend over yet? No?
I'll get you a bowl of raspberries from the yard."

I am starting to get that kind of child abuse too.

An indication you were too hung over to get out of bed more likely!

A good use for raspberries...

  bamboo skewers, place 1 strawberry, 1 raspberry and 1 blueberry
  per serving. Place vertically in the center of each nest for
  garnish.
