So I joined the I give you Four and you give me more group. One of the four is Spinach, lemon, mushrooms and almonds. What do you want to do with these ingredients? A reasonable question, the response of, Beats the hell out of me! Read more ! ...................is not well received and I am afraid that, it might be acted upon. Now, come on you have to admit that is not the smartest phrase that we ever came up with. All it does is put a kernel of an idea into someone's head that they might act upon. My family has a tradition of trying to make something out of nothing. My mother's step mom (a real witch) it took a house falling on her to finely send her to her just rewards. We still have the shoes she was wearing. Did you know that flying monkeys are not house broken? So where was I? Spinach... lemon,...mushrooms... almonds...
