Nice! We're always on the look out for bikes. My problem is I get one
get it fixed up and working and someone needs it more then I do so
I give it away. My last one went to a young co worker who was struggling
to get to work on time as the bus stop is a couple klms away from the
yard he worked out of. He's been set now for a while... not sure what
he'll do when snow is here.

Wow that is a simple one. I'm gonna add this to my recipe thing. I've
included my friends cucumber salad recipe at the bottom of this.

I've tried, what happens is I will make a smaller batch of something and
then one of the kids or someone shows up at the door hungry and I don't
have enough.
Made Veggie soup last Sunday - it just got cleaned up yesterday my Son
figures he ate over 1/2 of the container. hahaha

Yes. Especialy this year, I don't think I found a cabbage at the farmers
market smaller then an elephants head.

You've mentioned that cough before, I sure wish they knew what was
wrong with you.

3 large or med/small seedless
-cucumbers
2 T Sugar
3/4 t Garlic Powder
3/4 t Black Pepper
Paprika,Over Top
Slice cucumbers thin, cover with salt, after 15 min or so, rinse
thoroughly
Mix 3 parts water to 1 part vinegar, add sugar if needed to get flavor
you like - I usually add 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar to 4 cups of vinegar
solution
Add garlic powder and black pepper, stir well and pour over cucumber.
Sprinkle paprika on top.
I try to let it sit at least overnight, but the longer the better it
tastes.
I make 4 cups of the vinegar solution for 3 large or 4 smaller
cucumbers.
