The skim milk people in my family tend to get evangelical about it. They want to convert everybody else to drinking skim milk but I absolutely can't stand skim milk. My husband can't stand skim milk either even though he also has some fervent skim believers in skim on his own side of the family. Since I own my own cows my husband and I drink raw whole milk.

Our family is indebted to her in a way because several years ago her husband gladly exchanged his flat with my uncle's so that the two brothers can be neighbours. She never comes empty-handed, always brings something delicious to share with us, or some decorative piece for the home.

But there are "special occasions" which call for a "special" get together: like birthdays, wedding anniversaries, and other nice things as and when they happen.

I'd love more land and parking space is especially a bugbear of mine... and I don't have fancy start of the art things inside my house, but I love it. I love how it's evolved over the years and how everything has been adapted to meet my needs... And my garden... sure I hanker for a jacuzzi or hot tub... and I'd like more land again but every plant in it was planted by me... every weed pulled.. It's far from perfect... and I do work hard on it.. but overall I am very pleased with how it's looking this year. Be it ever so humble as they say, there's no place like home. less

His month and day of birth are the first two numbers he plays. The time he was born makes the third and fourth numbers he plays are the time he was born and the fifth number and the Power Ball or the Mega Ball are from the zip code of the city he was born in. My birthdate, time of birth and zip code of where I was born just don't make lottery numbers that neatly. If they did I would play more. less
