Mike- my Hubby is having surgery in the morning and we would appreciate any good wishes/prayers/positive vibes for him. He's had years of various degrees of pain and related symptoms and this surgery (spinal fusion) is to remove a bad disk and fix the screwed up area.
Hubby came across this and knew I would want to see it. I loved it. It's technically an ad, but it's hilarious.

about 1 cup of pomegranate seeds-...

This bag of beans had started with lots of dried on dirt, but I had rinsed them till they seemed clean and the rinse water was finally running clear.

My hubby bought self rising flour by mistake and since he likes white flour, :rolleyes: I don't want to waste it.
