Hi, I missed you all....

I am living on the side of a mountain now and it gets really cold here at night. all week it has been below freezing but, during the day when the sun comes out you start peeling your coats, jackets and sweaters. Then you can be outside during the day and wear short sleeved shirts along with your jeans and take in the glorious Arizona sunshine. I have learned a few things; can you believe I had more to learn LOL? I learned that it is easier to fasten the buttons on my cuffs with my left hand even though I am right handed. Now pay attention to these things as they are very important to life. For those of you who do not have the luxury of a dishwasher (and you probably won't if you are living on the side of a mountain without running water or electricity} the answer is coffee filters. Yes coffee filters! They are earth friendly, and make perfect little cheap saucers. For the number you get in a package, it is a bargain compared to paper plates or napkins. They are the perfect thing for that sliced apple, a doughnut or roll, that handful of nuts, pop tart, cookies, piece of cake, and a sandwich fits on one, cut fresh veggies, etc., etc., and can be used for a coaster under that soda can, or tea cup, or coffee cup. Use them for any type of small dry food. You may now start with your own list and I will get back with you later. Hang in there, I am aiming for at least two times a week on here.
