    Morning All 7.7 this morning but likely not helped by having Scampi for supper (with broccoli) but I figured because they were all large pieces the ratio of crumb to langoustine was better and it really was delicious but now filed under “occasional treat”. @DEBBIESCOTT I am sorry that cough is...

    I once rescued a pretty little mouse outside the back door before the cat got it. I picked it up between my fingers and it over arched itself and flung its teeth into my finger. Surprised I let go of it but it clung on dangly from my finger by its teeth! I sent it packing to tell its kin no...
