Gladys, let me know how it is when you try it, as I haven't....

I found it on the web and was wondering myself about it.
I am so happy to hear Chuchito is once again home with you! Our little Corgi is such a joy to us and so good with our grandson.
I have branched out to include sewing in my list of new things I'm trying, my Mom would be so surprised! She tried for years to get me interested. She made many of my clothes, including prom and dance dresses when I was in high school and some of the bridesmaids dresses for our wedding. (30 years ago). I told my husband when we got married that there was one happy homemaker thing I would NEVER do....SEW! Well, this month I joined an intermediate sewing class and we are making a reversible jacket with cotton fabric on one side and fleece on the other. It has two hidden pockets (with zippers!), appliques and cording. Quite the project! Today I put in a zipper and it works! The fabric is an African print with animals, the fleece side is a soft gray. I'm really having a good time learning. This morning I even shortened a pair of jeans before class! What's even better is they are a size 10! Tomorrow I visit with the nutritionist again for a metabolic test (breathing) to ascertain how many calories I burn while at rest. She feels I have taken the Dean Ornish thing a bit too far, not enough calories or fat, but is going over my most recent labs from the cardiologist before making a reccomendation. Then I will speak with my cardiologist about her thoughts.
I think of you often, my friend, DH is still looking for a cruise to take and we will let you know if we are coming your way!-Micha
