I totally can relate to having all four seasons in one day! Michigan's weather is just nuts! I think January was a very long month, even though I was busy it just seemed to drag!

You reminded me of how little we kept in our medicine cabinet when I was growing up: epsom salts, baking soda, asperin, alcohol, iodine...and not much else! <br /> As for the weather here: Georgia's winter weather is warm, warm, and more warm. There have been a few dips into the 30's at night but mainly just nice weather. <br /> You reminded me, too, of how much we did without sugar in what we cooked. Seems we've steadily "upped" our sugar intake. I remember loving cornbread without any sweetness in it! My father's family was German, my mother's was English and Scottish, so they had very distinctly different cooking styles. I remember meals at my father's parents' home being full of unfamiliar spices and sugary treats. Most everything of my mother's family recipes tends to be bland in comparison. One thing I'm NOT familiar with is Spanish cooking! mimi298https://www.blogger.com/profile/01564523195980459953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139435387062824419.post-61124480472012264672013-01-27T12:44:03.756-08:002013-01-27T12:44:03.756-08:00Thanks for the prayers and good thoughts, Brenda. ...Thanks for the prayers and good thoughts, Brenda. It was a nasty couple of days, but laying low and keeping up with the medicine every four hours seems to have done the trick. I'm still coughing a bit, and have some congestion, but am feeling better. <br /><br />Hard to imagine paying $18 for epsom salts. My goodness, we get a huge tub of them at Sam's Club for under $4.00. <br /><br />My mom put sugar in everything, so a sweet moist corn bread is my favorite, and we always put sugar on our sauerkraut. We also put sugar on tomato slices, and on our cottage cheese. My friends think I'm crazy, but it's all in how you were raised, I guess!<br /><br />I think February is a long month, too. January seems to have breezed by for me. Hard to believe it is nearly over.<br /><br />Thanks again for thinking of me!
