Ärende: cutting up
==================
Hi Ruth,

->  RH> Plantains of course are high carb, for a vegetable.  They're a good
->  RH> potassium source too if you get sick of bananas.  I got sick of
->  RH> bananas years ago.

-> We've been pushing fresh greens over the past few weeks, getting them
-> from the farmer's market.

 RH> Good idea.  Now to add in the apricots and dark chocolate for
 RH> Steve.(LOL)

I need them as well, just got the results of blood work I had done last
month. The potassium is still low, been running slightly low for some
years now, even with a suppliment, bananas, greens, etc.


-> Saws?

 RH> OK, as long as they're not chainsaws. I can handle a miter box just
 RH> fine.

Don't want you handling chainsaws. (G)


->  RH> Gotta love that deal.  My cutter works fine in either hand; I tend
 RH> to switch off depending on which is easier at any given moment.

-> I've got an either/or cutter that I keep set up for right handed use but
-> the left handed one is more ergonomic. Easier on my hand/wrist/elbow
-> when cutting major projects.

 RH> Good move.  I use what I can get in that area.

The right handed cutter is available for Steve's use too. He usually
doesn't cut fabric but uses it sometimes for paper, filters, etc (after
changing the blade to one specifically kept for that purpose). Also,
other quilters have borrowed the right handed cutter from time to time.

-> -> put supper together while I'm cutting a project. (G) No, I won't do
 RH> too
-> -> much of that as it's still a pain in the wrist/elbow to do that much
-> -> cutting.

->  RH> I can relate.  And again, I need one of them husband things that
->  RH> cooks.

-> Keep looking, one may show up yet. Even better, does he clean up after
-> he cooks?

 RH> Can't have everything.  I don't mind doing one or the other, but am
 RH> not fond of doing both.

I know, spend a good bit of time making the meal, then a short time to
eat it. Afterwards, a long time to clean up. Usually for me tho, once
the dishwasher is loaded, there aren't too many hand wash dishes to do.
Steve takes care of the big/heavy ones and sometimes just goes ahead &
washes up the rest of them while he's got the sink full of water.
