    JK> that one??  but at least it's done! (or I guess I'm done with cigs )   
      
   We can certainly hope so... :)  Another friend of mine had a similar   
   experience... and then the clincher for her was when she found out that   
   the tobacco companies had finally admitted that they'd purposely added   
   stuff to make people more addicted than they might otherwise have   
   been... at that point, she was so angry at the companies that her latest   
   effort to quit actually stuck.... :)   
       
    >>> good that the inhaler is working for you now, though....   
    >>> and congrats on the quitting smoking.... :)   
    >> Thanks, feels good.   
    > I saw your comment on giving all the cigs and all to Ron to get rid   
    > of... bodes well for staying quit... ;)  Rooting for you there... :)   
      
    JK> Thanks!  I'm determined really.. and it helps that I'm the only smoker   
    JK> in the house.. no temptations    
      
   That does help... no smoke in the house, no readily available cigs...   
   And support instead of temptation.... :)   
       
    >>> I've been at the Cooking Echo picnic (NC this year) all weekend... Steve   
    >>> was able to wire my laptop into his network, so I've been able to do a   
    >>> little messaging while here... ;)   
    >> Hey, that's nice, glad you were able to do so.. Hope the Cooking Echo   
    >> Picnic went well :)   
    > It went very well... as usual, we had more than enough food, and plenty   
    > of cooking, eating and talking...  ;)  It was a fairly small group, just   
    > Hafflys, Shipps, MLoo and me... and then mark joined us for Saturday and   
    > Sunday... there should be a report showing up in the Cooking Echo   
    > soon... ;)   
      
    JK> Sounds good.  I'll check later :)   
      
   Michael's started to write things up... One of the features was a steak   
   and kidney pie that Dale suggested I make after talking about it in the   
   echo... Michael helped it make it a reality (actually he did most of   
   it)...  :)   
      
   Looks like next year will be back in the Rochester area again... hoping   
   to make it easier for the Fords to attend, and my sister in Bloomfield   
   is willing to have us come again.... :)   We'll see how things work   
   out...  :)   
      
   ttyl      neb   
      
   ... I went to a seafood rave last week and pulled a mussel.
