I also enjoyed "A painted House". I related though to the baseball theme in the book. On second thought i enjoyed it even without the baseball. As Maureen noted though, A Time To Kill was one of my favorites too.

A few photos of some beautiful roses and surrounding country by poppy.

I had a ham and turkey and cheese 'sub' heated and it was not very good. Will not buy it again from that restaurant.

Y'all should ask poppy to post some photos of her roses as they are beautiful and many of them.

Is marrows another name for zucchini or something different.

It doesn't surprise me. I can't get you to try John Steinbeck either.

I am about 200 pages into the book and enjoy it very much. It may turn out to be one of the best of his that I have read. Have any other forum members read it yet.

Peanuts! Peanuts! Peanuts!

Try baking soda. It will make the pancakes lighter and fluffier and better eating.

Cast Iron or non-stick frying pan. How many pancakes does it make.

Just good old fashioned American pancakes: 1 3/4 cup unsifted all purpose flour 1/4 cup fine cornmeal 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 3 tbls sugar 3 tbls butter (melted) 1 tbls canola oil 2 large eggs (or egg beaters) 1/2 tsp vanilla 11/3 cup buttermilk Mix all dry ingredients together. Mix melted butter, oil, eggs, and vanilla together. Blend in buttermilk with the "wet" ingredients. Mix dry and wet ingredients together. Coat griddle with a little olive oil and cook pancakes until done. Serve with pure maple syrup, if available.

We just finished the pizza and it was very good. Looks like we have a new place to get out pizza as it is only 7 minutes away. The other place, Napoli's, took about 18 minutes to get there, but it was also very good.

Lucky you!!!! You better treat your Mum nice. What type of wine would you have with a meal like that.

Tonight is Pizza night. We are going to try a new Pizza restaurant named Luigi's.

What!!!! You think that I am one pickle shy of a barrel.

LOL, some women can't boil water. But, I am sure that all on this forum can.

hehehe, no thanks. Not if you made the gravy. Can't teach a woman from down under to cook to save my life.

I just finished a wonderful dinner, but an odd combination. I had Bison steak and cheese grits as a side dish. I used some butter and a wee bit of Maple Syrup in the grits. Gol darn they were good. My wife had scrambled eggs. she doesn't eat beef of any type and doesn't care for grits (actually she will not try them).

LOL, can't teach a woman anything.

As a last resort, is "Bisquick" carried in your stores. It is easy to make biscuits with it.

Welcome aboard. Stick around and you will get some great recommendations for readin.......and....you will enjoy them.

This is the sequence of the Thursday Next books by Jasper Fforde, and I recommend that they be read in sequence: The Eyre Affair Lost In A Good Book The Well Of Lost Plots Something Rotten First Among Sequels

Ooooh, the last one "First among Sequels" was a good one. The first 30 or so pages was kinda slow but then the action picked up and I could not put the book down. Run, not walk, to your nearest book store.

I got a copy of I Am Legend today from the library and started reading it tonight. I am only 50 pages nto the book but am enjoying it very much.

Crab cakes and baked sweet potato.
