i wish you would put all this cooking stuff up on your webpage. i use the newspaper stuff and the html links, think how useful i would find your cooking links.

Howdy Annie!

I put a few links in the "Useful Sites" Sticky-thread.

Of course... you need to be of the right mind-set to appreciate
the link to The U.S. Dry Bean Council.

BTW: If you are afraid of beans causing flatulence, just add about a
teaspoon of baking soda to the water when you soak your dry beans...

Presto -- gas-free beans!

of course i misread that and went to your mystery links page.

you also have to be of the right mindset to deal with your mystery links page. but it isn't any different from surfing with graphics turned off and trying to use a page where the links are all graphics.

I dun'no...

I got a "Weird Site" award for my Mystery Links page without
even submitting it!

Annie - I also live alone (and do a fair bit of jumbling recipes, on a bad day). In my life, "someone else to cook with" = friend I bring over. I mostly pay for ingredients (figure that's fair)... we cook together. Depending on what sort of day I'm having, I might do my share to help with the cooking, do less than my share, get confused and make trouble, or crash on the couch seizing and/or exhausted. After the cooking (actually, during AND after ) we usually share lunch... friend can take some of the food home for HER freezer, too.

(I've got a few of those barter-type arrangements going on).

I'm actually thinking about trying the LGI epilepsy diet... so will need help with managing that!


PS Dave... where IS your page? Anything that gets a wierd site award without trying has GOT to be worth a look

Annie,
Is there a service in L.A similar to what I have here? It is a service that delivers meals to people who need it (elderly, handicapped, homebound, etc.) for a very small monthly stipend. They bring one prepared meal, (meat & veggie) and have in a bag enough snacks, fruit, etc for the whole day. On the weekends, (Friday) they leave enough snacks and sandwiches to get one through the weekend. (I know, doesn't sound terrific, but at least you would have some food that has been prepared without causing injury, or fire) ((I live in Lexington, KY, so if we have a service like this here, I am almost positive a place as progressive as L.A would have even better services))

Crock Pot sounds great, although be careful of burns if you happen to seize while pouring or moving the pot. You could even freeze any extras and pop into microwave for re-heat.

Do you have any weekly group meetings that you attend? You may be able to work out a plan, such as Dave suggested, on preparing meals with someone else, and splitting cost while sharing great recipes and hopefully great time with someone else.

I wish you the very best. You have gotten alot of very good advice from others here, Dodi

I buy prepared food from the health food dept when its on sale.
Its healthy and can be baked, zapped in microwave or fried on the stove.
Or I make a pot luck salad (whatever is in the fridge salad) with vinegrette
and your set to go.

Howdy Purple Girl!

Only the ??Mystery Links?? page got a
Weird Award! That's why I put the award on that
page instead of on my Site Awards page
with all of the others.

The rest of my site is a good place to go when you
have nothing to do and a lot of time to do it.

I have now added a link to my site in my signature.

BTW: It's: http://www.howdydave.com

Go figure!

I do know that L.A. is no way near S.F., but I have seen some of these exercises . I don't know squat about the Geography of California. ( this is obvious) --The host of the PBS program is an RN accompanied by a physical therapist.who explains every move. They seem to present a seated and standing version of all the exercises. Here's the schedule in California. Hope this helps Annie and someone else.
