G'day Lilly and Cakes,

Hope you get that itch sorted out Lilly!

Anyone tried Vegemite pulling? No? Bloody hopeless. Look, mums and dad's all over Straya have been scoffing a huge tablespoon of the stuff, mixed with avocado and lemon juice for years. Works wonders. And when yer finished, spit it out over yer herb patch. Me Grannie showed me this. This was way before the days of dynamic lifter (a little known vegemite derivative) and the like.

Was that the 'everything' that they brought with them?:H

Lilly, I'd get back to your GP. It could well be a medication side effect. My Mum is allergic to all sorts of meds, and sometimes even the other ingredients and fillers in the tablets.

Got to trip off folks, back tonight.

Morning Undies...
The Cheescake shop - wrong.
Been sleeping like a trooper with the no al...I'm liking it.
I'm off to visit James then have 4 bridesmaids dresses to alter & a friends sons blankie to fix. And a crap load of housework to do.

Morning Undies,

Must remember ... never look a gift horse in the mouth and it's the thought that counts...

I've been looking for a new obsession since I completed the pizza oven challenge but I don't think pulling is going to be on my to-do list. Had a friend who was into Gerson Therapy in a big way with juicing and coffee enemas but, sadly, he popped his clogs anyway.

Happy Monday!

No, Grinder - going to wait until fire restrictions are off. Don't want anybody seeing or smelling any unusual smoke ... makes us rurals a tad apprehensive.

Morning undies!

didn't get a chance to re-write my lost post from yesterday, but the most important news is that Mum has yet again done her Lazarus impression. Lots of rellies took some extra time off after the wedding and came to see her last week (becasue I'd passed on to them what the Drs said about the fact that she was fading fast) and she promptly perked up, started eating again, getting up and dressed, and even went out in the car a couple of times. I thik she is determined to have the last laugh :H

I heartily agree with all the comments made about managers and HR people. G that action was like a mallet to crack a peanut. It did however make my professional antennae go onto alert - are they generally picky like this with everyone, or is it just you? If it just you, I'd be keeping a written diary note of anything like that or instances of double standards. Just in case you need them.

While in Melbourne I was reminded of how I dont like some of my family very much. I had a rip-roaring argument with one of my relatives who had recently fired someone for drining a can of coke without paying for it (he runs a food business in Queensland). As far as he was concerned, eating/drinking food that is to be sold in his shopis theft, it is listed as such on their Code of Conduct, and he was perfectly justified in dismissing her without giving her a warning. He was totally unsympathetic to my point of view that a warning and a sit down chat to emphasise how seriously he took his Code of Conduct would be far more effective a way of dealing with it. And of course I got heated and when I get heated I get tongue-tied and inarticulate and dont acquit myself very well. However, Mr B managed to wipe the floor with him in an argument about the origins of the GFC :H

I presume that I should avoid the Cheeseshop shop when I land on your shores Do you have other pearls of wisdom to ensure I fit in with the natives??

Angel - if Mr B and I ever decide to elope, you're making my going away dress!! :H

I'm enjoying having A (young woman who has lived with me on and off for the past ten years) and her 7-year old X) back living with us. X starts back at school today and is very excited about it. He is such a great kid - having all my rellies around over the last couple fo weeks, it has been interesting how many of them have commented about how good natured and polite X is. A is an extraordinarily good mother, which I find astounding given that she was kicked out of home at 15 and was pretty much writen off by her mother, got pregant at 18, married at 19 and widowed at 22. Our funny little family has been mudling along very nicely, for us it is nice to have others in the house and is going to make our transition to Sydney so much easier, and A has been able to take advantage of having some built-in baby-sitters (because we are so exciting that we never go out in the evening :H) When I hear people moaning about Gen Y or Gen Z and their excessesI think about her and her friends and a whole lot of others who are just out there living their lives and sorting themselves out and getting on with it.

must go and do some work!!!

Morning Undies! heaps to say but no time...:upset:

Have to make some decisions, as in - if you bite off more than you can chew do you a. chew like crazy or b. spit it up, dissect it and take up the good stuff?? and no I'm not talking about the oil pulling thinking to do, when I can spare a moment...

Froglette, I reckon some of the stuff from Cheesecake Factory is ok, if you're in a rush, but it might stack up to the Maccas experiment where if you leave it, it sits in the same state without perishing, ad infinitum...

Off and into it, be well all....

Looking forward to hearing what is bothering you Saucy. Hope you work it out and report in later feeling much better :l

I had no idea what The Cheesecake Shop is. We do have The Cheesecake Factory here in AZ but I've never been. I guess when your a great cook like Frog the processed stuff can put you off. I remember that Pavarotti she made with the berries and shaved chocolate YUM!
