Welcome to my page

This is a picture of the Naperville Riverwalk in the fall of 2008 on a early Sunday morning. I love to walk along the Dupage River early morning and even in the Winter. Just up around the bend is a bridge with rapids running underneath it - you can listen to the water - very nice.

Thanks Mary for the welcome wishes, I'm feeling for you in the sadness of seeing your Mum in decline.

May you and your family enjoy Christmas with the traditional gifts of love, peace and hope.

I always do lemon cordial for Christmas pressies. Love that home-made feel. I used to have a lemon tree in Victoria but up here we have a lime. I'm actually going to make another couple of batches today and maybe mix some lemon and lime.... so here's yours. Though it 's great for our hot Australian Christmas weather, you may want to save it til next summer.

LEMON CORDIAL
Ingredients:
Juice of 7 large lemons
Grated rind of 5 large lemons
1 kg sugar
1.5 litres of water
25g citric acid
Method:
1.In a large pan, boil up sugar, water, grated peel and citric acid.
2.Take off the heat and add juice, If preferred, this may be strained.
3.Bottle whilst still hot into clean, sterilised (in oven ) bottles

Enjoy with my blessings!! fi

Thanks for the greeting, Mary. We had our windy, blowing snow storm yesterday with a still day today with brilliant blue skys and a kid who only wanted five bucks to scrape the sidewalk and porch. Marry Christmas to you with all the fun that's to be had.

hi Mary. thanks for stopping by and the kind holiday wishes.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your family. hope you have a wonderful and safe holiday.
we've move back home to Indiana, so you and I are "neighbors". woohoo. we head to Chicago a lot. hope to meet up with you sometime when we head that direction. i'll sure keep you posted! that could be great fun.
brrrrrrrr, it's cold here. we traded tropical winter to be closer to grandboys. we're enjoying our "daily fix" of seeing the boys daily. what fun. they are growing way too fast. the oldest turned 13 this fall and we realized we were missing way too much. so here we are! great fun.

Hi! I thought you might like to know that you can access the sudoku site through the "back-door!" I tried my own page in my history of my server and it worked! If you make it, please stop by the Forum SA3. Lots of luck!
