Hi, I am Barbara from Tennessee. You ladies give me A lot of chuckles and I sure do need them. So thanks a million.And I would like to ask, how you all work these so fast?
Hi Barbara, I'm Deborah from Arizona. There's a blog listed in the "support" icon, if you'll hover your mouse over the word support, you'll see "blog." Go there and they tell you how to increase your speed. It's very interesting. The people more likely to make comments are the ones who love doing jigsaws, but aren't real concerned about times. I'm one of those. :)
Hummm. Well, here is some personal correspondence I had with my son. He is a grown man and has his own son who is 25. I sent him a recipe for Chow-Chow. Here is his response:
"When I get elected emperor pickles shall be outlawed. Yuck".
Oops, what kind of a son did I raise? Oh well, no big deal!
I love tomatoes - fresh from the garden, tomato juice, stuffed tomatoes, Tomatoes Melba, fried green tomatoes, red and green tomato relishes, sliced tomatoes and onions, chow chow. You name it I like it :}
I like to stuff a tomato with tuna salad....a favorite summer supper.

I wouldn't eat sliced tomatoes when I was a kid unless they had quite a bit of sugar sprinkled on them. I thought that was delicious. Maybe I will try that again. Why not?
P.S. What is Chow-Chow?

Chow Chow is a wonderful relish made with green tomatoes. Globug, are you willing to share your recipe? Mom used to make it every year when I was growing up, but I don't have her recipe anymore.

Me too I love tomato everything! My garden tomatoes have tasted heavenly this year and so grateful for the crop I have been blessed with. Been making homemade salsa, pasta sauce, stewed tomatoes and even freezing some for the winter to put in my chili.
It's late tonight, been watching the semi-finals of The Voice and I have decided that I have no taste for talent lol. Two of the four are very talented and one of them seemed to sing the same sort of song all the way through and his diction left a lot to be desired. Personally if someone is going to whisper sweet nothings in my ear, I would like to be able to understand what he is saying lol.
Remember the Arthur Godfrey Talent Show? They didn't waste so much time on the judges' remarks. They just had performances and aa applaud meter at the end for who the audience liked. People with the most friends in the audience woudl have an unfair advantage but now it's peolple on the internet ith the most friends. I prefer A. Godfrey's way. More talent showcased and less phoney acting from "judges". Same for the dance contests. I love dancing but can't stand the time spent on the the judges and the unfair results.

Well said. Unfortunately today's music is dominated by
poor lyrics which you don't want to hear. Music is dominated by yodeling not singing and by angry male themes. Time for a Music Revolt but it isn't going to happen.

So right, Copabill. Same for all art. It has devolved into all dark angry hateful themes. Real art is from God and should raise you up, not enforce what pulls you down.

So true pixi, love the old masters where a painting depicts what is seen. So much modern art seems to come from deranged minds. I like to see the love and effort of the old masters. Hugs.
I just had two tomato sandwiches for lunch today. Yummy. Wow was a ever scared last night. I have a huge back yard of about two acres. It was pitch dark and I was closing the blind to go to sleep when I saw two large objects way in the back. They had a dim light all over them. I couldn't tell if the were round or what. They kept dancing around and disappeared and about an hour later I looked out as I was afraid to go to sleep and they were there again. I'll be anxious to know if they come back tonight. I haven't been outside today. Almost afraid to go out.
Have a good day and God bless you all including me!
God will protect you - and they are probably something quite ordinary, just the light and dark making them seem scary. Hugs.

Jingles, you probably just saw a couple of space aliens. No big deal; at least they didn't take you up in their ship.
Just relax and go with the flow. Don't watch for them again. They didn't kidnap you--you are safe. Sleep well.
