I sent a copy to one of her grand-dads, Marty! He wrote back and loved it.

Later, today he sent me that email that went around about a year ago with the darling kitty with parakeet. I didn’t tell him I had seen it....but I get emails all the time that are the same. Like I say, they go ‘round the world and back again.

Thank you once more, sweet Billie.

Good evening, Billie.

No problem with reposting ..... I just feel so awful about posting such a large image. If I had downloaded it, I may have noticed the size. I know better than to do that.

That will teach me to not hot link. :)

I’ll be waiting for the Grape-nut Pudding/Custard, and especially for the sugar cookies ‘to die for’. I have never found a good sugar cookie recipe. MMmmmm, I can taste ‘em, now!!

Angels were watching over you, Dolly!
I am so glad it is finally over for you,
With the best outcome we could have hoped for!

Comfort Food
Whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. —Romans 15:4

I love the phrase “comfort food.” It speaks of the things that are so good, so familiar, so right, that they can always bring a smile to your face. For me, comfort food usually includes some form of beef and potatoes. Hamburgers and French fries. Meatloaf and mashed potatoes and gravy. Also, chocolate in almost any form imaginable. These are the foods that speak to me and say that all is well with the world. (I’m not saying they’re the most healthy!)

Unfortunately, all is not well with the world, and no amount of hamburgers and French fries can make it right. Real comfort is not the byproduct of specific foods any more than it is the result of alcohol or drugs or money or pleasure or power. It is a much deeper need that requires a much deeper solution.

Paul told the church at Rome that the search for comfort can begin in the pages of the Bible. He wrote, “Whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope” (Rom. 15:4).

God has given us His Word to draw us to Himself. Through a relationship with Him, He provides the comfort we need to live in a broken world.

Jesus is all this poor world needs today;
Blindly they strive, for sin darkens their way.
O to draw back the grim curtains of night—
One glimpse of Jesus and all will be bright! —Loes

Those words are so very powerful to me. Thanks for bringing the Daily Bread this morning, Mr. Mayor.

Thanks for the info. on the banana pudding!

I like the cute little animation you did ‘way back when’. It hit the nail on the head for sure. He is trying to rehabilitate his image now.

In case you all missed it, when Hillary was speaking the other evening, they put the camera on him and he was mouthing “I love you, I love you, I’ll love you forever”. Thats the truth! We know Bill. Give him an Oscar!
