Re: bone update

Joanne,

Olive Garden's food is good but it is not in my humble opinion " real "

Italian food, at least not for an Italian. I guess that is how a

Chinese feels when they eat in a Chinese restaurant outside of China

or an Indian, Thai etc. Something about the base ingredients we use

always seems to make the food my mom cooks or that I eat here in

Italy more tasty and lighter, more digestible.

Yes, I remember that heat wave. We had a few deaths here in Italy

too. Very sad because the temperature hasn't actually changed from

previous summers. As long as I can remember summers have always been

scorching hot in Italy and we have never used A/Cs. I guess that will

need to change soon.

OOoh I was thinking of getting an Oral-B electric toothbrush once my

jaw heals fully. My ortho is always raving about them!

Have a good 4th of July!
