Hi Nancy,

 RH> OK, good but not great. Tasted like canned beans.

 NB> Well, yeah...  ;)

I know, I didn't even do anything to make them taste better.

 NB>  RH>> Good and gone is the best description for them. (G)
 NB>  NB>> They do sound good.  :)

Probably a combination of reasons but I was glad to see the (almost)
empty pot.

I'm not sure when we'll be heading up that way again. The report from
Don isn't very encouraging; we may be going up before the end of the
year. Then there's the question of if we will try to head over to
western NY to see family there or now when things are wrapped up in the
Catskills.

 RH> I'd not heard it either.

 NB> Maybe it was just an idle rumor...?

O an excuse to buy chocolate. (G)

 NB> chocolate chip cookie.

 NB> He likes the chocolate just fine, just not the mint... and he likes

And aren't you glad that we can trade off like that? (G)
