Susan - if you ever have cabbage that you won't use, call us! Cabbage is a staple in our diet now and we can only grow so much due to space (and aphids).

I have a farmer who grew napa cabbage just for me
She sold it well, but there were always 2-3 large heads waiting for me in season. It'll be back in the fall. Homemade kimchi, cabbage salad (use instead of lettuce), various sautes, etc, etc. LOVE cabbage!!

We use the regular head cabbage as 'noodles' in about a billion different recipes. And the leaves make great taco 'shells', too!

My excuse was I killed the vacuum. My new vacuum came today - darn that Amazon Prime! Originally Posted by Susan Otcenas

Sometimes NF is just geeky. Other times it really resonates with me.

Oh I'll say it - riding my bike is much more of a priority than cleaning my house. Keeping my house model clean: not a priority. Keeping my house sanitary = a priority (no dirty dishes in the sink; minimal mold in the bath, etc.). Originally Posted by Susan Otcenas

I love your strategic use of the word 'minimal' here! Originally Posted by Blueberry

I'm happy when I'm clean. Screw the house.

Heh. I clean it - it comes back pretty quickly (stupid claw foot tub with 2 shower curtains will do that). With 3 felines - same thing. The dog is in residence at my dad's until cooler weather (at least) - but 3 felines, 2 people and all the bikes in the house is bad enough.... Originally Posted by GLC1968
