Hey, Deirdre: Our minds must be on the same wavelength. I was telling Ruth today that now that the waether has cooled off, it's time to get back to baking. I'll do a double batch of oatmeal/raisin/walnut sugar-free cookies in the next couple of days. My son-in-law Ali keeps telling me I should sell them commercially. I tell him that my secret recipe is under the lid of the Quaker Oats Oatmeal box I use, so it would be hard to claim it as uniquely my own. Besides, I'm not looking for a new career. I have enough trouble keeping the stuff I am doing going. I'll see if I can't set out a batch over the weekend.

Next weekend is going to be fullllllll. Friday night my pastor-friend Ken and his wife Elizabeth are having a couple staying with them who are folk musicians, and they want to have a sing-around. Not sure that will happen, and don't know the folks names yet. Saturday afternoon is the memorial service for Sandy Paton... a two hour drive from here. I've been asked to speak and do a song. Sunday I would normally be singing with the Men's Chorus at our church, but this coming Sunday is my daughter-in-law's 10th Anniversary of the church where she is the pastor, and I am part of the program.

I think I'm going to need those cookies.
