I'm leaving shortly for Penn H.S. The Shurbans are putting on their presentation of The Yellow Ribbon Program...talking to high school students about their son's suicide. I saw this years ago at IUSB, put on then by the Emmes, whose son also commited suicide resulting in this ongoing program....
Then onto a meeting by the Prevention Coalition...on the agenda is trying to figure out how to market our new support group. It's a beautiful Fall day and I am hoping to work on the leaves when I get home. What are you all up to???

I"m heading into work which has become very stressful these days... seems the choir and one of the new ministers don't see eye to eye and there has been a lot of emotion. Thank goodness I'm only there 20 hrs a week.
I'm also helping some friends who recently purchased an old movie theatre... so I'm off to work there for a couple hours in the evening. I'm keeping up with things but as a result I forget to take of me... ain't that always the way, eh?!!! so, I told the movie friends I would only work 3 times a week, tops (about 6 hrs total) ... and I told them at the church that they have to know what is going on ... being a "rescuer" and liason between all these emotional folk was NOT in my job description... damn it, tho... its in my character to help people.... ahhhhhhhhhhhh to be human is difficult ! Enjoy your day Alffe. I hope the leaves have all blown away by the time you get home |

It's cold and rainy here... where did my warm weather go?? (yesterday we had a temps in the mid 70's... today we were lucky if it made it to 60.) Hugs for all!!! Abbie

Now if you're lucky enough to have a good supply of pecans handy...try this receipe from Pat Conroy's wonderful cookbook...
Cocktail Pecans 1 cup sugar 3/4 tsp. freshly ground nutmeg 3/4 tsp cumin 3/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 3/4 tsp. cayenne pepper 1 tsp. coarse or kosher salt 2 large egg whites 1 pound pecan halves 1. Prehate oven 325F. 2. In small bowl, stir together the sugar, nutmeg, cumin, black pepper, cayenne, and salt. 3.In another larger bowl, whisk the egg whites until barly frothy. Add nut to the egg whites and turn to coat. 4. Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and place in oven until browned, about 1 hour. Stir occasionally prevent clumping. 5. Place the baking sheet on a rack to cool. Transfer the room temperature nuts to an airtight container. If desired, warm and crisp the nuts in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes before serving.
