Hi Nancy,


 NB>  NB>> rye...
 NB>  RH>> I've rarely found rye on a breakfast menu. Even that is mostly
 NB> wither  RH>> flour, unless I'm making it. Then it's whole wheat and
 NB> rye. (G)
 NB>  NB>> Well, yeah, when I was making it, it was whole wheat with the
 NB> rye, and  NB>> mostly rye, at that..   :)

 RH> And mostly rye doesn't give you very much gluten so it won't rise very
 RH> high.

 NB> I finally added a couple of eggs to the mix, and got a slightly less
 NB> dense bread with a bit more rise to it... Nice taste, too...  :)

Should have added a bit of gluten too. I do that, or use guar gum which
does a similar job.


 NB> Things don't always go as one thinks they will... especially at
 NB> holiday times...  but unless she's taking more than a week off, it's
 NB> more likely to be after than before...  and she might not go at
 NB> Thanksgiving so as
 NB> to go for Christmas...  She was just down to celebrate her mom's
 NB> birthday last weekend...  :)

 NB>  NB>>> Bad timing for you.  Mid January isn't too bad for a Christmas
 NB>  NB>>> brunch... after all the 12 days of Christmas go to the 5th or
 NB>  NB>>> so... ;)
 NB>  RH>> We will be wanting to have our Open House/Blessing around that
 NB> time  RH>> frame so will have to work around dates.
 NB>  NB>> Time will tell..  :)

 RH> It'll be whenever we get the bulk of the unpacking and settling in
 RH> done.

 NB> And who knows how long that will take....  ;)   But you might be
 NB> fairly efficient with this move...  :)

Should, for the most part. The kitchen should set up easily but the
sewing room will take more time. I won't do any major redecorating for a
bit, until things settle into place.

 NB>  NB>>> And then there are the tried and true to get back to, like your
 NB>  NB>>> favorite Korean place...  :)
 NB>  RH>> Definatly! That's one, if we have an echo picnic, we may take
 NB> the  RH>> folks to.
 NB>  NB>> I know that I'd like that one.  :)

 RH> I know, and others probably would too. We made converts out of one
 RH> couple already.

 NB> Did you get back there with them...?

No, we didn't but maybe whenever he comes back for graduation we can. He
was supposed to graduate next spring but had to take this semester off
to help with the family. But, they want to go back, and we do too.

 NB> finish  RH>> for Santa in the next few weeks (will probably have it
 NB> done by next  RH>> week end, actually).
 NB>  NB>> At least that one's more a short-term commitment... :)

 RH> Yes, but getting the time to work on it sometimes seems impossible.
 RH> I've got a big section of hand stitching to do, then about a day's
 RH> worth of machine work. Then he will have to come over to check the fit
 RH> & decide on button placement, another day or so (whenever, but before
 RH> the end of November) to do the buttons and buttonholes & last minute
 RH> tweaking. The second one will probably have to wait until we get moved
 RH> however.

 NB> Good thing he's well supplied already...  :)

These 2 are a different pattern, ones to wear with his Santa suit. I did
the hand sewing yesterday--about 2 yards worth!

 NB>  RH>> Looks like we may be heading north tho, possibly before
 NB>  RH>> the end of the year.
 NB>  NB>> Depends on how things work out, especially up there... I know...

 RH> Right now it's not looking very cheerful.

 NB> Yup.  But things may not move as fast as you fear.

Time will tell.
