Ravings About Food and Eating

Those who know me know I like to eat. Those who know me well know that I enjoy eating and especially eating food that is well prepared by a person who takes pride in putting a great meal on the table. I am a bit overweight with a belly that could well be reduced in sticking-out bulk size if I were a little more serious about doing my share but, you know, I was raised on a daily ration of great Edam and Gouda cheeses plus once in a while a nice helping of smelly French and Italian products. That was and is still good eating for me with cholesterol count below 200.
Why did I not explode in size like Mr. Five by Five? Because when I was growing up we did not have computers to play games on. We went outside with neighborhood kids and played very active running games like soccer and hockey. That got rid of whatever is now tainted as not being good for you. It was good in my youth, it is still good in yours. But only when coupled with daily activities that make you sweat. So there.

Back on Track

For more than seven years my trusted computer's hard drive decided it had enough of the game, laid down its head, and gave up.
The guru was called who determined that he could fix it for a price that could be handled and the machine plus guru walked out of the house to the great relief of the dog who thought it was an imposition to have a stranger sitting in his master's chair.

Five days later the guru called to say a new hard drive had been installed and most of my old files were copied onto the new drive. Took the machine home, hooked all the wires and plugs in the plug spots and we're ready to go only to find out that several programs were atill missing. Fortunately I had most of the program discs and could reinstall them.

Why am I telling all this? To let you know in just a FEW words that I am back to writing a serious blog when inspiration comes to me for a visit. Till then and cheers!
