I made the huge batch and divided it up for the freezer - we've had 4 meals out of it so far and 3 more to go. It's the greatest! <br /><br />Also - never left a comment before, but isn't that strange? Because I feel like we're old friends...we go way back to when your Ben and my Sam were babies! He's about to be 10 too and simply enormous. Yet he still wants to curl up in my lap and though the sheer size of him is daunting, I have to grab onto these times as I can see them coming to an end soon.

I need more kitten stories!? I also wanted to let you know that I recently made your dinner bean recipe (I know, it took a while), and it was great!! Do you think that there is any point in making the tamale pie if I can't make it with the cheese (my son cannot have bovine protein or soy)? And will you come up with crafty things to do with cat fur?

Our clothespin people look more like those ugly dolls, except with acorn hats and badly felted capes;). Readers that feel like friends-- or become friends-- are one of the best things about this crazy cyber-universe. I got to meet my now real-life friend Sus this summer, and not only was she not a creepy, plumber-butted middle age man (my mother's fears), she was even more lovely and real and amazing in person. How cool is that?? PS-- thought of you as Noah began his work on Max's fifth birthday present, a new board game entitled "gross-opoly" so that things like pee river and big doo mountain can be included on the game board. Sigh.
