One of the pitfalls of having a computer in my kitchen is that.....it is in my kitchen! So tempting to sit down and see what's up in the garden every time I walk past it.

I had thought I might watch a good old sappy movie, but Judith Light is nowhere to be found on the TV today.

So.....I am being somewhat productive. I have a pan of gingerbread in the oven (smells good) and I am cleaning out my pantry! HUGE job! So many cans and things have gotten pushed to the back of the shelves, so I am taking everything out, tossing what is no longer good, cleaning the shelves, then putting everything back in some kind of order. There are 4 deep shelves, and so far, I have done the top one. Time to get back to it. I think I will do a shelf at a time, and reward myself with computer time after each shelf. Yeah, that's the ticket!

Back later. Want some gingerbread? It just came out of the oven..Mmmmmm...

Arghhhhhh..stop it please!!! I *love* gingerbread with warm vanilla sauce on top. You and Pab have both brought my memories back to my childhood today, her with the laundry and me thinking of my mom's old time wringer washing machine and you with my mom's gingerbread. Nice memories!!..Susie

PS...it is WW friendly, right? ;o)

Hugs,

Good afternoon, BB. I was just having a discussion w/ DH the other day about a puter for the kitchen. You know, for looking up yummy things to cook and all.I've been up here on the puter on and off all day so maybe one in the kitchen isn't such a good idea after all! I'm new here, but you lovely ladies make this such a "homey" place I just can't tear myself away.It also is Sat. after all and I'm taking a day for myself. DD comes home tonight for an over night visit w/ bestfriend and soon to be new roommate so should be a nice evening. They will be sleeping here in DD old room which is now MY fun room so tomorrow I won't be on the computer so much. enough from me for now, I'll come back soon. Patti

I would do that, too, BB, but how do you know what is out of date? I try to rotate cans, but that's haphazard. Yeah, where is that Judith Light when you need her?? Oh, I know, she's selling her skin care system on QVC or an infomercial...Seren

Hi Seren, there should be an expiration on the bottom (or side) of each can (or box) in your cupboard. If there isn't an expiration date, then it's older than dirt :) Toss it!

I'm a lucky lady . My DS2 works with computers and would network me right up if I asked. He and his wife have many computers in their home, I,ve forgotten how many. DH and I have 2 cause he works from his. I have been at this a little less than a year and have learned some but want to do more. Patti
