Miss Duffey, I agree with your statement about only taking a bit of the big apple, but in the Chimp's defense, that is something you can do at home. Having never been to THE big apple, I can only imagine what sins the chimp's mouth committed. ; )
Janie, that is a great photo of you and Mike. Also, I can definitely relate to "The Joy of Eating." You write it and I will read it. OR, maybe it will meant to be eaten somehow?
I'm adding an update regarding my mom. Her doctors have settled on that even though the biopsy was negative, they believe that she has lung cancer. They have referred her to Hospice, which will probably come tomorrow. We covet any and all prayers that her pain and nausea will be well managed and that her frustrations, which are many, will melt away to peace. Thanks for letting me share this difficult thing with my friends.
