I am 70 and going on 50. I try to stay busy, but get bogged down with computer and reading. I have to force myself away from those two things to get exercise. I volunteer to force myself out of the house and it works! I am a retired psychotherapist, have a Dutch husband, and two adult children, and 3 adult step-children. 9 grandchildren, and a great-grandchild due Feb. 23, 2008.
I used to make manicotti all of the time and it was delicious. I love to cook. I had to learn Dutch cooking, and that was my biggest triumph, as it is so different than what I was used to in California. Interesting, being German, that I found many things I had eaten as a child were what the Dutch eat. Possibly the German influence, but very close to each other in taste.
None yet, but doesn't mean I won't update this soon.
What would happen if I let go of the urge to correct and concentrate instead on the rewards of connecting with someone?
