Well, I hope I'm not sticking my foot in my mouth here, but I suspect the difference is less about the date and more about NYC versus CO.

And what I meant by "surprise your husband" had nothing to do with your cooking ability. If my wife brought me a treat like that when I wasn't expecting it, I'd be very pleasantly surprised by the unexpected treat.

Oh! OK, gotcha

Seriously, I do dearly love the fried noodles from chick pea flour, I could eat those all day. Spicy baked cheerios don't sound so exciting, though.

Today's more a kheer day!​

No doubt about NYC. The melting pot of the world does indeed have everything. It was so axiomatic I agreed in silence. I wonder, though, how much Colorado might have changed since I lived there. I'll tell you one thing Colorado has that NY can't compare ... skying!

I've skied in NY and just about everywhere else, and between Colorado, Utah and Idaho no other places rank. But then powder is powder and packed powder is packed powder while the east and west coasts produce more icy conditions.

I think it's too bad that you and your husband didn't get to come to Bangalore. India is an exotic place you'd have loved to explore. I wonder about one thing, though. If you had come and saved all your money and then wanted to leave, I wonder if the Indian government would have allowed you to take your money with you. We have THE MOST ridiculous currency laws in the world. If you know anyone who is thinking of coming, they should find the answer to that question. I'm afraid I do not know.

But, I'm home here and don't ever expect to leave. My work consumes me. We have the highest mountains in the world, and the bluest seas and white beaches when that turns you on. The people are beautiful. They are after all Indo-Euorpeans. I did a lot of study on them and was floored to find out they are Caucasoid which unfortunately means "white" in most dictionaries. Some are pretty light skinned and with blue eyes too. But apart from their beautiful sun tans we would die for they are Caucasoid.

Maybe you'll get a chance to visit someday. When you do, be sure to make Bombay a point of interest. I'd love to have you folks in my home. Your husband can help me with my computer problems and you with my peeps.

Love ya,

Sky~

Sorry, I don't understand. Are you disagreeing or asking, or even something else???

NEW PROBLEMS!

Our chicks are almost two months old. We started with eleven and are down to five. The neighbor had one that came up with something that looked like a blister near the eye or beak. Within a day it was dead and it was about two months of age at that time. Now we have five left out of the eleven which are doing well ... until today! One of them has that blister just under an eye. It is kind of hard. She scratches it, and on the other side of her face also at the eye is a red dot of blood like she was pecked or poked with a pin or something. Then we noticed another chick same age has one of these blister looking things right on the top center of it's beak.

Any ideas of either cause or cure would surely be appreciated.

Thanks!

Sky~

There is some info on the blister thing in the emergency/disease section. Hope your birds are ok.

Found some info on raising redworms I thought I'd share:
http://www.backwoodshome.com/articles2/sanders112.html

This article shows how to build an inexpensive worm bed, what to feed them, what not to feed your worms, and gives advice on what might be causing the problem if you are having trouble with them.
