How am I ever going to live up to those wonderful compliments? Geri Atric, I am looking forward to your visit. Baino, I know all about Olive Reilly and have her video. She was an inspiration to me and her blog THE LIFE OF REILLY was fascinating. So sad that she is no longer with us. Thanks also to Judy, Annie, wisewebwoman and Kenju.

I have abandoned my broom for the evening and returned to catch up with my visitors. @Nick - I too hope we never return to the scrimping and scraping of long ago. I sometimes wonder who would fare best, our generation or the youngsters who know nothing of hardship? @Baino - Welcome to the 'Funny Looks' club! Ignore those people who think we are weird 'cause we got the last laugh! :D @Nancy - Darlene has done well in a few short months. I too like her political conversations. @Annie - Enjoy Right!

My name is Dearbhla and I'm writing from RTE's The Afternoon Show. I'd love to have a chat with you as possible as you seem to have lots of tips etc that we would be interested in hearing. This seems like a somewhat unconventional way to get in touch with someone but you didn't have contact details posted on the blog. My number is Dublin 01 208 4616. My email address is dearbhlalennon@greeninc.ie If you could send me a mail with some more info on your background etc and maybe even attach a photo, that would be fab.

I am more and more impressed (and learning) from older people who cross both my virtual and real paths. I continue to be inspired. My recent new friend is 98 and goes out to catch her fish dinner in the pond by her house, and recently I caught her up to her elbows in Christmas pudding batter. She makes a pudding for each one of her grandchildren and their families. she jokes to me she was once 5'9" but God has shrunk her to 5'2" so he can squeeze her into heaven by one of the back windows. LOL. XO WWW Thanks for the link, GM, an amazing lady. I am more and more impressed (and learning) from older people who cross both my virtual and real paths. I continue to be inspired.

I have missed reading your blog with my morning cuppa (!) and haven't read Darlene's blog yet. Most definately will though. I recollect hard times from a (post) war childhood (although didn't know they were hard then of course - that was just the way it was..). Love the photograph! Very prof'. You get better and better G! I think you should write a recipe book and photograph the dishes. I'd definately buy it (living on quick on-the-go meals at the moment burp...oops, sorry)!
