Rezoning may take away your sanctuary, Jane, but it may increase
your property value many folds. If your 10 acres is subdivided
into city lots 50 by 100 feet as my cottage in Bellingham is,
you're sitting on a gold mine. However, money will not buy peace
and serenity, although you maybe able to buy a small island.

Didn't I say women are smarter shoppers than men?!
(OK, men, just one man - me!)  :)
Well, drugs have a residual effects on us - it takes a few days
to clear out from our system after we stopped taking them. But I
hope you found the right one this time.

Oh, but you're not eating "tons" of salmon, are you?  :)
Talking about salmon, I just bought a case of canned salmon,
the Clover Leaf brand, one of the best around. I found it
having a mild aphrodisiac effects!   :)
ay.
Extra virgin?  Virginity has grades?  :))
But I think you meant extra pure olive oil?
The Greeks are crazy about olive oil, everything they eat in
Athens is loaded with olive oil! I have them up to my ears after
one week there.
Mmm... don't wait too long, Jane. You lose a lot of flavour each
passing day. But you can stir fry them for a change in menu?
Well, variety is the spice of life, right?
I wouldn't eat salmon every day even though I love salmon.
