What we are eating and what's eating us.
Linda S. Thanks for all of your uplifting posts in the morning, I wish you laughter right back and hope you enjoy this beautiful day.
George, I hope you are feeling better today. I can't imagine what it feels like, but if I decide to go through WLS, I guess I'll find out eventually. Feel better.
Maureen, have fun with your hubby at the classical music concert, it sounds like fun.
Jean, your chickpea patty sounds scrumptuous. Can you share the recipe? I never had tahini sauce, what's that taste like?
Have a great day everyone! TGIF

Me being one of those new folks around here as well, I can relate to the job search for

I know what you mean about living off your roommate/boyfriend. My husband is willing to support me, but I have never before had to ask him for spending money and I really hate it.
