I agree!

Cold Evenings/Hot Soup!

The rainy day put me in mind of hot soup so that is what I currently have simmering on the stove. I used beef because that is what I had on hand. My personal opinion is that the chopped onions should be cooked first and long and slow to gently carmelize them. It adds a lot of good taste to the beef broth. I also use a lot of garlic along with a variety of vegetables. And, yes, bread is rising on the counter!

An Hour of Quilting today . . .

I didn't get all the time I wanted to quilt today but I am a third of the way through applying the quilting stitches. It was a nice occupation on a cold, rainy day. I really like the outerspace theme of the fabric especially the use of the deep, vibrant colors. You will seldom find pastels in my quilts!

Not as easy as it sounds . . .

Death panels determining our right to health care?

In case you thought the administration was telling the truth about 'death panels' not being a part of our proposed healthcare legislation, this should make you sit up and take serious notice. What happened to our individual freedom to decide for ourselves when we've had enough medical intervention in hopes of surviving?

If memory serves me well, didn't Hitler believe is eliminating the 'unworthy' of the country? How different is this situation?
