Great work!

I always wonder if any of the stones you put back up are people that I am descended from. My mom's side came to the US just a few years after the Mayflower. ... up there in New England.

Either way though... I love seeing the stones that you fix up.

Same here, 20yrs after pilgrims landed my dad's side had a house in 'New Amsterdam'.

love banana bread , my mom used to make it often. I used to but, one person vs two loaves of banana bread is slightly too much.

Freeze one for later!

Doesn't work Cap, I've tried it with cookies, brownies, cupcakes, etc. I just take them out and eat them frozen - honestly.

Ever see those Pepperidge Farm cakes in the freezer(Grocery store). I cut them in 4 parts- eat one part. Put back in freezer, and so on generally finishing them in an hour. Things in the freezer call to me and I have to respond.

49.5F here (Sun. 1:37 am) haven't put the furnace on yet. Man just checked it out the other day and replaced filter and the one in the humidifier. Trying to tough it out since the A/C was running for so very many days this summer.

Been sleeping in my LLBean fleece lined flannel shirts already. I think I have 6 now 2 with hoods, the rest without.

So cool!

Can you figure out where it was? Or is that ridiculously impossible because streets changed so much?

Cold here too.. not that cold... ranging between 40s and low 50s at noon-ish.... but it has been damp.

I find the damp makes the cold ooze into my bones.

Friday night I went to bed fully clothed. FULLY.

Long sleeve long John top, fleece shirt, fleece jacket, long John bottoms, fleece lined carhartts, good wool socks... I was warm enough to take off my hat.

It wasn't that cold... I think I just got chilled... sleeping "normal" tonight.

I have that same problem. I had read the dirt tip that you should hide your cookies, etc. in the freezer to keep from eating them. So I tried it.Nope. I knew they were there. They called to me to get them out of there, so I did. One, two, three or more at a time. I had no idea they were so good when they were frozen.

Cold here too, and I see on the radar map there is S#*w off to the north of Sault Ste Marie. Bummer.

But did they live up in the Augusta/Bangor area of Maine?

Love to see that.
