You're probably closer to either of them than we are (about 3 hours,
give or take the traffic) to Charlotte.

 RH> Not always.  It depends on what it's on.

True, but when a "name" passes away, the value of the name increases.

 RH> Good.

Agreed. We have to go to NY next month; I told my siblings we had Mom's
angel food cake pan (but have replaced it with one of our own) and it is
up for grabs. Looks like we'll be bringing it up (with some recipies)
for my youngest sister.

 RH> It happens.  Old age catches up.

Plus the fact it has been used as a work table for computers, a sewing
table, an arts & crafts work space, an office desk..................

Any deals or steals on cookware, serving (hotel) pans and other stuff?

Don't know if it would have flown at our church either. Where did the
recipe come from?

It's a start. Next, Lean Cuisine, followed by opening a can of soup,
putting it in a bowl and pushing the 3 button once, the 0 button twice
and then Start.

 RH> More rain here today too.  We had a downpour in the

We had a rainy Monday but it cleared so pollen levels are up again. No
real rain predicted until Saturday tho. Guess I'll stay in for a few
days.
