Thanks, and no problem. Heck, it took that birthday 61 years to get here;
a birthday wish the next day isn't very late.

I normally get involved in the birthday wishes, but I will on this
one. Hope you both had a nice day.

Thanks. It was okay. At least I'm done with strawberries until
Saturday. Now I'm looking at Rhubarb Stuff.

Happy birthday to Blinky and Barb. And Lou a very early birthday (or late)
greeting to you too!

Actually it should have been "normally don't." I see I've made a few
other bloopers here in the last 24 hours. And I don't know the answer
to why I don't, but I like you and Blinky. So I thought I'd jump in.

You're welcome.

Didn't get any toys? Hell, I'm lucky if I even get a card.

Louise has a secret garden that she got gallons of blackberries from 2
years ago. Last year was so dry there was zip. This year will be
better with all the rain in the midwest. There will be plenty. I
don't know crap about canning, but I freeze things very well.

You're kind to say so. Thanks.

I received a gift and a card. Flowers from my niece. And phone calls
from my kids and the BRG and cards from others. A Czechoslovak cookbook
from one net friend and a gift from another net friend. I didn't suffer.

My condolences.
I'm having a creamy sauce with asparagus, chicken, baby portobellos over
some kind of pasta. And a green salad, I guess.

Were you the 25th, too, or was this thread a

Phone calls and cards are always the best. Just having Louise tell me
Happy BD in the morning is all I need.

We'll see what the crop produces. I might have to learn a thing or
three. Isn't there a canning group?

It's not rocket science but there is some science involved.
Fortunately, it's relatively easy science to understand, IMO.

There certainly is: rec.food.preserving. We are about 90% on-topic and
like it that way, too.

Thanks. I'll start lurking there. Seems to be a lot of familiar
names over there.
