It must be reassuring to know that you have brought her up to fend for herself really well.<br />We have finally finished with the last bottling of maple syrup and we are now in cleanup phase. Yesterday evening I watched the Easter Vigil live on my laptop and it is a very long Mass, two hours altogether. I'm finding it harder recently even to sit through a 2 hour movie, but I did find the Mass very comforting and to get a break from sitting I stood up for the prayers each time.Bushladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-27117501036695433992020-04-12T11:46:02.651-07:002020-04-12T11:46:02.651-07:00Yes, I'm feeling better, now, thank you, Eilee...Yes, I'm feeling better, now, thank you, Eileen. But, I think I will take it easy, today, too.<br /><br />Green apple curry does sound very good, doesn't it? I haven't made it, myself, but I might give it a try. There are lots of curry powder recipes and it has been awhile since I made my own, but, make sure you ventilate your kitchen when you make the curry powder, because it can be very aromatic and the smell tends to linger! :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-28310831457831855172020-04-12T11:15:49.864-07:002020-04-12T11:15:49.864-07:00Yes, it is!

Does practice make perfect?, or is it all about seasoning the waffle maker? ha,ha. <br /><br />I hope you are feeling better today. Your body will let you know you need more rest. Perhaps just watch some TV today.
