 RH>> Neighborhoods usually do develop a sense of community to them. It's
 RH>> nice tho, when those outside your neighborhood know more than just
 RH>> your face.
 NB>> That happens here, too..  it all depends on what your other spheres
 NB>> of interest happen to be... we run into people all around town that
 NB>> we know or that know us, from one thing or another..  :)  Sometimes
 NB>> in the strangest places..  :)  I've had the proprietor of a Asian
 NB>> buffet in Henrietta recognize me outside a different Chinese
 NB>> restaurant in Irondequoit where I'd gone with a friend... a good 15
 NB>> miles away... that's pretty small townish...  (G)

 RH> Did you recognise him, out of his restaurant? (G)

Yes...  though it took a couple of moments to be sure of where I knew
him from...  which restaurant...  ;)
 
 NB>>> arrangements get to show if they work or not...  And the pantry
 NB>>> needed the rest of the stuff to be found before you could quite
 NB>>> get it settled...  ;)
 RH>> The pantry is slowly coming into shape. There are a couple more
 RH>> shelves but also more things in it that we didn't keep in the old
 RH>> one I've got to work around.
 NB>> More space, so the option of putting more in there...  And the
 NB>> jigsaw puzzle continues... ;)

 RH> "This will fit here, but nore practical to have it there" sort of
 RH> thing. 

As you noted before... a 3-D puzzle...  And the more you use it, the
more you'll see what works best in the new setting... :)

 RH>> If we were in school yet, we'd be adding to the collection.
 NB>> School books are unavoidable until one gets out of school.. We're
 NB>> not buying as many books as we once did, but there's still always at
 NB>> least a few each year...

 RH> We're not buying many books now but Steve got several last fall at a
 RH> conference. They got packed up a couple of months later. (G)
 
It was the timing...   (G) 

 RH>> We added a small book on honey (new) and a Raleigh Women's Club
 RH>> cook book (used) today; the latter may or may not stay. I want to
 RH>> look thru it more to see if it is a keeper or not.
 NB>> That sort could have real gems in it, or might just be more
 NB>> run-of-the-mill... I have some that were given me, or that I bought
 NB>> to support an organization, because either I or the giver knew people
 NB>> in the group... I'd probably keep those just for the connection, even
 NB>> if there wasn't anything particularly useful in them... and then, you
 NB>> never really know whether something that seemed not so great ends up
 NB>> being just what you were looking for, later..  :)

 RH> I've found some good recipes just thumbing thru books I've had for a
 RH> while (bought new or given). I'll keep this one for a bit, see if
 RH> there's anything that strikes my fancy. Some possibilities so far, but
 RH> I've not finished looking thru the book yet.

Sounds like that one may end up a keeper, too, then...  :)
