She emailed me these last two links:
Karla asked me to post this… and since she is our treasured web site artist… here it is!

Sometimes wonderful things just drop into your lap. I know I am going to hear my daughters scream over this one. This holiday season, Neiman Marcus is offering a wonderful truffle Cake that has so captivated my wife… that it seems too hard to resist. After all, it is chocolate!
In checking out their site… I also found their famous Chocolate Chip recipe! The real difference is the addition of Expresso coffee powder. Laura will just love it!
Thanks to my cousin Shirley, we checked out her site and discovered a couple of things that were fun to add to our efforts. One was that little ICON that appears in your ‘bookmarks’ and in the address line of your web site!
So we all sat on-line designing what we wanted on each of our sites… thanks to Favicon, we got it done.
So, that’s all we’re up to for now!

Part of losing weight is how good you feel. Everyone tells you this, but when you actually get there, you discover to your amazement that it is actually true! You feel great!
I weigh myself only once a week, and if the results are there ( meaning progress to the goal weight which is now only 2 lbs away)… then I plan an event. Karen being a PR guru knows all about ‘event planning.’
My events are simple meals. Smoorvis (South African) and Fried Catfish & Hush Puppies ( Huck Finns in Tennessee) are two fun meals I have on the horizon. Huck Finns will be easy as they supply everything… but the catfish.
As Forest Mars Sr. was fond of saying, ‘there has to be a prize for playing this game.’ And in the game of Jenny Craig it is ‘event planning.’

I am comforted by the fact that ‘home’ represents so many special things to people. It is a place of refuge… a sanctuary… and most of all… a place to gather strength.
“There’s something about being home …The pain hurts a little less. Your hopes burn a little brighter. Life is possible again. I’m home.”
— Leroy Sievers
Home — to me — is a place to go to find comfort, solitude & peace…. until the next battle!

Aaaah, now I can finally make ‘Seafood Paella’ the way it was intended!
Thanks to the good folks at PaellaPans.Com , I can now hold my head up in pride with an authentic pan… the size and style common in Spain. Heh heh, I think this is the single serving portion?
