Okay Hive I am about to pull my hair out with the summer class, Children's Literature. One of my writing prompts is: Examine how the layout of characters ( words and marks) in Funny Bones showcases the illustrative action by bordering, facing, footing, or meshing with pictures. Discuss 3 examples of effective typographic layout from the book. I have no idea what facing and footing means. Google is no help. Neither is the professor and my two classmates I usually text with. I asked the professor what facing and footing were and this is his response: The terms are referring to the layout of the text blocks. Are the blocks inside full-page pictures? Are they on white pages opposite illustrated pages? Are they framing images? Are they footing or heading images? Anyone have any clues? Thanks!!

This may already be your intention-- Since there are several food issues, can you just make sure there are things each person can enjoy?

Another one for "I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony." I was at the Coca Cola museum in Atlanta not long age. They showed a video and this ad was included. My professor and I were the only ones singing along. The other students were like "Huh?"

I have to second Hank the Cowdog. The whole family will be addicted to them.

Bone density test. I think the baseline for this is 50 also.

32

I am interested in trying this. What did you do to get started?

Velveeta/rotel dip with sausage or ground beef mixed in. Scoops chips to go with it.

Coming up on 28 years for dh andI on the 27th of this month. I love that we give each other permission to make mistakes. When either of us has a goof up, the other just lets it slide. He has put up with the house and cooking taking a back seat to my school work. I love so much about my man!! Happy Anniversary and your plans sound great.

I will be hunkered down finishing up a summer class. DS will be working at the firework stand that is staffed by our church. I don't know yet if dh will be working or off. But I have this class-the last day is July 6. I have a 32 page book to write and illustrate. 15 poems to write. A paper to write every other day. Two online meetings per week. Eight books to read, plus other online readings. I will be glad to finish this class!!

My parents still say "Chester drawer". Singular Ugh

Reuben sandwiches. In all their buttery, fattening goodness!! Picked up some of dh's favorite candies. (andes mints, butter mints, chocolate covered raisins, millionaire's) That will be it.

Chicken alfredo with pasta Choice of three salads: Fruit salad, english pea salad, and greek salad

This thread, along with the dancing bacon, is cracking me up.

I hope to buy and freeze two bushels of purple hull peas this year. I will get 5-6 bags per bushel. I used to fry pork chops, cook the peas, cornbread, and maybe mac and cheese. My family would eat the peas and cornbread and leave everything else. So now when I make peas and cornbread, I might have onion and peppers on the table but no other dish. That's all they want.

Fresh tomatoes from the garden-chopped up, add salt, and a spoon Cucumber salad Peaches from the orchard 25 miles away Fried okra Yellow squash Purple hull peas and cornbread

I have a very small garden. I have 3 tomato plants and a 5 foot row of okra. The tomatoes were put out late, but they have blooms. I can't wait to eat the first ripe tomato.

Thank you for starting this thread. I have lost about 10 pounds. Yaay. I am lighter and happier. I was able to back up all my college work before my laptop died.

I am making my dad a Peanut Butter Cheesecake. This is one of his faves so I know it will be well received. No clue for dh

My pick would be the Cherokee Purple. My parents usually have no trouble growing them, although this year is not so great. They do not have good luck producing perfect looking tomotoes, but they are oh so good. The flesh is velvety and not too juicy.

You're a Survivor!! Treat your family and your brother to something nice. But be sure and include something extra special for yourself.

It may be easier to swallow pills with milk or buttermilk. However, I use water now or whatever I happen to be drinking at the time. Have your ds to put the liquid in his mouth, tip his head back and drop in the pills. Swallow with head still back. The pills may never touch his tongue this way. Hope it works.

I use Lipton family size tea bags. Fill tea kettle with filtered water and add one bag. Bring to a rolling boil and turn off heat. Let kettle sit for tea to steep for a couple of hours. Put 2/3 cup sugar into a half gallon sized pitcher, then add the tea.

Keep hanging in there OP. I cannot imagine how stressed I would be .

I have a Holly Hobbie Christmas collector's plate. It is so pretty and one of my favorite Christmas pieces.
