Lately, I hear so many people
talking about their love for asparagus.
This is one food that I just can’t handle. When my niece, Rachel, lived with
me at five years of age, she loved asparagus. One night while we were getting
ready for dinner, and she announced that all she would be having was asparagus. The
funny thing was that she meant it. I had to call my Mom to find out how to cook
the veggie. My Mom found it funny that Rachel really wanted this dish. She
didn’t even want the cheese sauce that I offered to make for her. I was actually quite pleased that she
was eating in such a healthy manner.
Who knew that at five years old, she loved something so
GGGRRREEEEEEENNN? It definitely came from her Mom.
Random Reflections
On
February 19th I was reading the Kane County Chronicle. I was
saddened to learn that Henry Funk who owned Grimm’s Pharmacy in St. Charles had
passed away from dementia and health related problems. My sister, Kim and I,
worked at Grimms for years. It was a great job at the time.
I
will always fondly remember working with Nancy Anfinson, Phyllis Brown,
Annie Matthys, Verneda Walsh, Henry Funk, Paul, Carol Vial, Bunny and Dar
Regelbrugge, and Austa. What a great bunch of people.
Helpful Home Hints
Check
out this website:
I
was looking for a list of home maintenance jobs to do during the year. It is
helpful to have a base list, and then add personal topics to it. I found this
one on the above site and wanted to share it with all of you.
I think we all need to be proactive and
not reactive. I don’t want to wait to replace a board until it is rotten and
the area leaks, when I can change it when I initially notice the problem. The
difference is that it will save money in future repairs if you are proactive.
