Reposts and thank you!

Thank you for your birthday wishes!  Christopher surprised me with breakfast out at our favorite diner in our old neighborhood.

This is the place where Stephanie went down a grade point on an early morning class one year in college, choosing to skip the class and have breakfast with Christopher and me off and on (Christopher was much younger, of course).

Starting today, I'm reposting some of the pantry and recession pondering posts that were your favorites.  I'm harvesting and drying and freezing (not to mention getting some necessary housework projects out of the way).  Will be reading comments as usual and posting them.

Hmmm... since today is my birthday, I think I'll take the afternoon off from "all of the above".
