My least fave is the sperm trees. There's some kinda tree that got imported hundreds of years ago that smells like sperm when it blooms. Just WHY? WHY would you plant more?

Remember these? The Bradford pear trees? They are starting to bloom! :ph34r:

OMG. . . . .forgot about the sperm trees.. . . . .:lol:

Yes, who indeed would plant more o' them? Not the kind of scent you want wafting in your kitchen and living room windows throughout the day, non-stop, all spring.. . . ....

At least there is no perfume fashioned after this pear tree.

.. . . . . ..... . .Is there??.. . ..... . :blink:

You know, back in the days when I knew no better, I was quite enamoured of this tree and was proposing to plant one right beside our deck, where we used to sit on spring and summer evenings to provide a meal for the skeeters :blink: No, I didn't plant something else, I just phorgot about it, thank goodness.

Gads, have I got a lot to do. .. . . .. :wacko::wacko::wacko:

Having a 50th birthday party here this Saturday night for DH. He is MUCH, MUCH older than I. <_< There will be about twenty people, just family and a few close friends. (Um, guess who is flying in tomorrow, 5:42 pm?). . . . ...

.. . ..MIL . .. . .... :noadequateemoticonavailable:

Saturday night is coincidentally the final night of Jack's musical production, which actually works out well because almost everyone who is coming to the party will be heading to the musical afterwards. It'll be one big convoy.. . .. ..

SOosoosooOoO, I have to clean the entire house and the yard in case we are out on the deck, hit groceries and the liquor store... . . ....and the big thing: I decided four days ago to do a painting for DH. I am about half-finished.....it must be dry, matted and framed by Friday night.

:unsure:

So WHAT IN HELL am I doing on here??. . .

Oh, man, would that ever be splendid!

Jack and the cast ran through the whole musical yesterday afternoon in front of the entire public school next door that came over for a field trip. A group of six year-olds were assembled in the front foyer and Jack walked by them in full costume and dramatic makeup. They fell utterly silent, staring like this:

:huh::huh::blink::huh::blink::huh:

He said to me afterwards, "PLEASE tell me that I don't look like this when you're seeing me up on stage, from the audience!!"

. .. . ......Like somethin' outta Clockwork Orange. .. . . ... ..

So funny! Hub & I are imaging a big tough cat chased by a chicken. Cooper would be running away, too.

Civckeb talk :lol:

Well, Elsie would run, terrified, from a rampant chicken. Hank, however, wants to be everything's friend (squirrels, unapproachable neighboUrs, ALL cats, particulary our two whom he follows around the house, licking their heads).... . ..so, a chicken would be nothing but a potential playmate.

But as Patteigh has said, civckebs always look pissed off.. . .perhaps he'd hesitate.. .. . . ... :rolleyes:

Well. . . ....I am still on a high. We went to the opening night of The Drowsy Chaperone at Jack's school, and it was incredible. I sound very like a biased mom, but everyone in the audience was truly blown away. I only wish Soooozle could have been there.... . ....

:lol:

Jack was fantastic. He is in the chorus, so nothing up-front, but one of the vital support cast in the background who makes it all look and sound amazing. He plays the part, in this scene, of one of the cameramen who dances around, lifts up the leading lady, and generally keeps smiling', movin' his feet and singin'.. .. . ..

      Insomnia help

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep. One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem. Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read,...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms. I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free. Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative. In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken. Major mistake!

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.
