I had both kinds of measles when I was a kid, chicken pox, mumps and whooping cough. Those days the health dept. came and nailed a quarantine sign on your house until you were passed the danger of passing it on. I again had measles when I was in my 20's but my kids never caught i from me. I...
:frowa late welcome from north of the border, Vancouver Island. I'll be looking forward to hearing about your adventures, just a little green with envy:).

Ridge, yes 24 hours gave them enough time to give them the flavor I like. After two days the texture changes and gets more rubbery. At the pub by the end of the evening the 4 dozen eggs had pretty much disappeared :).
Pickled Eggs? did I hear pickled eggs mentioned, love them. In our younger days we used to go out to a pub on a Saturday night, beer was 20 cents a glass. You could get swacked on $2.00 if you were inclined to do so. I never got past the second one which others seem to appreciate but beer went...

I been in hospital for a week so haven't been on the forum, all I can say is I'm devastated. Alex had a way of worming his way into all our hearts and although we've never met in person I counted him as a very dear friend, it's not going to be the same without him.
He was such a caring person...

Right back at you Mary, we just got this Christmas greeting from our son and partner who have rented a house on the beach for a couple of months.

Well I thought it was bad the other day with winds hitting 90 miles an hour here, ferries mot running, trees crashing down on houses and power outages, we were lucky we didn't lose ours.
Yesterday it was worse, the whole island was effected, winds up to 100, again trees crashing down on...
:lol:, you would have to pick up on that, sometimes I don't hit the keys hard enough, you don't know how many words I have to correct after I've typed them, at least I didn't ask you to bare with me ;).

Broken knife in hand he came to where I was and said...
