Good Morning sis How is the weather your way? Here it is cloudy and has been drizzling too, it is coolish but not too bad. I hope you did not get a gift of snow or ice..that would not be good. Anyways it sounds like I might be getting the washer replaced this weekend which is nice. Had odd dreams last night and the night before..nothing bad just odd...

Pepto-Bismol has Bismuth Subsalicylate that is said to bind with other compounds that in the end is supposed to be antimicrobial and prevent bacteria from sticking to the stomach lining. I know it is odd but I kind of like the taste of Pepto Bismol yet for me it does nothing for heartburn so I just mix a little baking soda with some luke warm water and that usually does the trick. I also kind of like the taste of Nyquil too. I know..strange. I agree that packing is not fun as you kind of have to play 'Tetris' with your stuff so it fits in boxes nicely. Well at least it sounds like you have some interesting stuff to sift through and hope you find more small treasures too :)

Ooohh..I did not know it was National Tea Day today so I should make some tea then :) Hmm..maybe there will be something from all that stuff you can use? Been working on a new poncho and am trying a slightly different technique for joining rounds and I think I like it too! Oh and thanks for the flying teeths thing :)

I am not sure if papaya seeds can be roasted but I am going to look it up..I read they have a peppery taste so maybe they can be used in cooking maybe. Have a good dinner :)

Aww..thank you for the kind words. I just started on my next poncho and those reading glasses really help me to see the stitches better. This time I made sure I have the right stitch count and will make sure it is long enough to reach below my finger tips as the pattern seems to show. I DO have bifocals but I really do not like them and I only really use my glasses for distance stuff so these readers will serve me just fine. I may have to cut into the papaya I bought as I may have inadvertently stopped the ripening process when I put it in the fridge but I will save the seeds as they are edible too :)
