-=> Quoting Ruth Haffly to Nancy Backus on 08-27-16  19:25 <=-

 RH>> It wasn't needed until the last day, after cleaning out the big and
 RH>> small fridges. The team put their sandwiches in it until after VBS,
 RH>> then took them to eat on the way south. We're now using the cooler
 RH>> as a fridge suppliment.
 NB>> Both work well...  :)

 RH> Yes, we loaded the peaches picked up in Pa into it to keep them from
 RH> going bad. They were quite ripe, had to trim the bad spot here & there
 RH> while putting them up but not too much lost, thankfully.

Kept them cool, but couldn't totally protect against bruising, I'd
guess... :) 

 RH>> Yes--we had very few left overs this year as compared to last. May
 RH>> tweak the list more if we go next year to reduce them even more.
 NB>> Sounds like you are getting the knack of it, for sure...  :)

 RH> Helps to have shopped for Life Group cooking and a good many more
 RH> years of family shopping than any of the other team members. We came
 RH> in under budget for the food.

I'm not at all surprised... :)  Lots of experience on many levels of
food shopping, both bulk and not.... and of knowing how much to get and
whether something is a bargain or not...  :) 
 
 RH>> My first cards were done by a friend in exchange for proof reading
 RH>> her husband's master's degree papers.
 NB>> Nice exchange...  :)   I never needed any more cards... probably
 NB>> still have some tucked away somewhere......

 RH> I've needed new ones every time we've moved. (G)
 
As long as the phone number didn't change, you might have been able to
keep using the old.... ;)   But if you put your address on there too...
yeah, that changes...... ;)
 
 RH> Give me needle, thread and fabric & I'm happy. I'm beginning to
 RH> think of what to do for my next QoV project, even tho I'm only
 RH> about 5/8 done with the current one.

A good match for you, obviously....  :)
