Pippin, I will remember the needy lady who just moved into your building. We pray God will supply her needs at this time.

Thank you for sharing with us, Pippin.
When I read your post, these scriptures came immediately to mind.
(And this wonderful Sandy Patti song!)

His Eye Is On The Sparrow - Sandy Patti (You Tube)

Behold the fowls of the air:
for they sow not,
neither do they reap, nor gather into barns;
yet your heavenly Father feedeth them.
Are ye not much better than they?

Matthew 6:26

“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father.
And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows”

Matthew 10:29-31

PIPPIN!! Is that you? Where have you been? I haven’t seen you post for two years or more. It’s great to know you are still here. I have wondered about you and prayed for you, just in case you needed prayers. ((((((pippin)))))

Good morning everyone! We had a 3.4 earthquake this morning. I didn't feel it. My son called me in a panic, "Did you feel that?" Nope. Oh well, I knew my house was solid and firmly set.

Wish I could stay and chat, but I have a 4 1/2 year old to watch. Have a nice day all.

[WVNan]

Oh oh oh....I didn’t know. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAJIE!

This thread has enough great pictures of cats and dogs that it could be made into a picture book. We have Victorian scrap since a daughter briefly collected them and then was briefly into scrapbooking. Our Victorian die cuts of cats are not as cute as many of those here.

We also have contemporary die cuts based on Bastin's Beatrix Potter's pictures. Bastin did wonderful drawing of the mouse Vera for her books as well as nature scenes. One of these days I will learn how to post pictures. Here's a link which has a couple of Vera die cuts. They are on the April 2009 page.

When I get within 50 miles of a P.F. Changs,
I have only one thing on my mind!
NOTHING can stop me,
Not wind, rain, snow or sleet!
I MUST have their Fried Calamari!

HAPPY FRY-day everyone!!!

PF Chang's Salt & Pepper Calamari recipe

Ingredients:

500 g squid rings
1/2 cup flour
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
200 g fresh breadcrumbs or dry breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon szechwan pepper
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
vegetable oil, for deep-frying

Method:

Lightly dust calamari with flour shaking off any excess. Then dip in to the combined egg and milk.
Combine breadcrumbs, sea salt and peppers in a shallow bowl, and coat calamari in this mixture.
Transfer to a plate and place in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Heat oil in saucepan and deep-fry calamari in batches until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Serve with some sweet chilli sauce.
