Need a recipe for all those squash in your garden?

It has soooooo many recipes and you can save them into a cookbook.  You can even create shopping lists from the recipes.  It also has nutritional information.  Wonderful.  Now I can make the spaghetti squash in my garden a number of ways!

Epilepsy Facts (from David Bowman who took from Parents Magazine)

The article also features the following facts about Epilepsy: (Taken from the Parents article)

• The Brain is made up of 100 Billion nerve cells, which communicate with each other and the rest of the body.
• A seizure is triggered by abnormal electrical activity that causes a change in sensation, movement, behavior or consciousness.
• Doctors diagnose epilepsy after a child has two or more unprovoked seizures, which means that they aren’t caused by something external, such as a fever.
• Epilepsy is actually an umbrella term covering many diseases and syndromes.
• Epilepsy affects about 3 million people in the United States, and 45,000 children are diagnosed with epilepsy each year.
• There are 30 types of seizures, which can last from a few seconds to two minutes or longer.  In rare cases, they can be fatal.
• Drugs, surgery, or a special high fat / low-carb diet are effective in about 80% of cases.  Kids may be good candidates for surgery if their seuzures – unlike Michael’s – can’t be controlled with medication and are caused in a specific area of the brain.

90+ Years of Stuff

My grandmother, Nina Diefenbach, died on 8/8/08.  I loved her dearly. 

We are now going through her stuff.  She saved a lot of stuff. On the one hand, I am greatful.  There is a lot of family history.  On the other hand, there simply is a lot to go through, and I wish she were there to tell us what is what.  (Along with the fact that I just wish she were still here.) 

For instance, she saved every greeting card we ever got her in a rubberband with a note that says: “From my wonderful grandchildren.” 

Lesson learned: Save only what has meaning, tag it, organize it, and get rid of the rest.
