Well the parsnip cake and the loaf of bread is now out of the oven and I can go to bed. Good morning to all.

Hey just checking in...slipped and fell yesterday while out feeding/watering the chickens...landed flat on my back/back of my head on ice. Laid there for a while...hurts like hell today....off to work now.

Good point! Hadn't thought of the perfumes and stuff, even though he wrote they were in there. Likely smelled nice in the firs few years, but 4,000 years later (or whatever it has been) it would likely have lost its nice scent.

I hope to someday travel with our kids and see some of the world (we did see Jamestown, though he has not studied much U.S. History). The only mummies he has seen are the ones at Ye Olde Curiosity Shoppe!

When I was his age (30+ years ago), I saw the treasures of King Tut's tombs when the exhibit traveled to the DeYoung museum in San Francisco. San Jose, where I grew up, also has the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum which is full of wonderful artifacts. I think I will take him there next time I go visit my family.

I saw the King Tut exhibit when it traveled through Seattle. My brother and I were so tired that as we went from room to room, we would look at everything and then go sit in a corner and fall asleep until the adults were ready to leave that room.

I bet the chickens would love it

Lotsa good protein...
We are sooo sick

Chickens are sick.....

Mine were out free ranging in some half decent weather the other day, and found the carcass of a mouse. They chased each other around the yard for half the day, passing it off to one another. DH tried to catch the hen and take it from her....she was having none of that....disgusting. the mouse was in my garden, so I am sure it is dead from one of my cats killing it. I guess chickens are necessarily sick....but they are very barbaric. Someone told me to get chicken legs (from the grocery store) and throw them in and let the chickens have them....DH just thinks that this is wrong and says no way.

Parsnip cake? You mean you can make parsnips taste good, like as in carrot cake? I have a big bag of parsnips which I forgot to trade out of my CSA box .... can only eat so many roasted parsnips ... I also have avocados that are rotting. I love those, but am allergic. My tongue and throat swell and I wheeze. Any recipes for kiwi? too many of those as well (fruit, not bird).

Ouch! I hope you and the baby are fine, no big goose egg. Might want to be checked for a concussion or just assume you have one and take it very easy. Brain swelling is bad.

I guess I should read all the way down before I post. Now poor Rare Feathers is being nagged by two worry warts.

I remember doing that with my brother when "the Splendors of Dresden" came through San Francisco.

I am a class A++++ worry wart....Ogress, you and I can do this..it is okay. This way RF Knows we love her and are worried about her health.

We are not nagging....

just worrying and making "helpful (albeit pushy)" suggestions.

Heather take it easy today. I agree with Ogress, go get checked up by your doctor...not a big deal.
