-Update-
Another three announcements just arrived. These include: C&K (Ray’s Markets), Allann Bros., and Theo Chocolate. Check the link below.
Between February 16h and today, another thirteen announcements from the FDA, have been published on peanut related recalls. These would be in addition to the 292 recalls I reported on the 16th. There are so many on this list, it really is better to go directly to the FDA website HERE, and scan the list for yourself. Do not complacently think you are unaffected if you only eat organic. There are some organic labels on this list.
In addition to candies, cheesecakes, butters, and plain peanuts, products like Slimfast, trail mixes and a large number of protein bars are included. Some products are listed because, while they did not contain peanuts, they were produced in factory conditions where peanuts were processed.
In the meantime, yet another reason to grow your own tomatoes has arisen this year.

What Alegre SAID.
Domestic violence my ass! Take a look at a photo of the couple in The Buffalo News story HERE.
This needs to be called what it is-MURDER!
Who is talking about it and who isn’t? No NY Senator press releases yet.

Every year the misinformation, helped by the retailers, that today is “Presidents Day” arrives on our doorstep, clothed in bunting and waving flags. Well it’s not! Today is Washington’s Birthday Holiday, folded into the holiday parade of the “Uniform Monday Holiday Act” in 1971. Continue Reading »

And so, as comes to us all, the catastrophe happens. Left by me, and inspired by my hubby gleefully bounding into bed, my laptop soars too high and crashes like Icarus onto the night floor; a mangled body, it’s screen feathered and veined, chirping brokenly. Continue Reading »

In regarding Martin Luther King, Jr.; today’s federal holiday, as always, snaps us in our complacent faces. One cannot look at the accomplishments, and honor of a great man, and be unaware of the distance yet untraveled. If you are a fan of the Indigo Girls, or “hooked in”, you know the term “Blood Quantum”. Otherwise, this issue might have slid right past you. Some forms of racial discrimination are alive and well, still contained in our laws and treaties with others. They continue to rankle and corrode. Continue Reading »

In the wake of the near and record high temperatures we are having in CA, there was no choice yesterday, but to get some other work done. A month’s worth of laundry left out to dry greenly in the sun, and weed pulling. Those nasty little critters start growing in December. Give them three days of daytime warmth and they are suddenly two feet high. If you don’t get them in this first flush of warm weather, and before the moisture is out of the soil, you’ll never get them out of the clay soil we have. Continue Reading »

-UPDATE-
Anyone want to place a bet that the Senate will hold passing of these bills until the new Prez can sign them? Read Heidi Li’s post HERE. Then tell me I’m wrong. With Brazille on the the Editorial Staff of MS, the upcoming edition looks pretty well planned to stick another finger in someone’s eye. Any of our Democratic candidates, had they become president, would have signed these bills into acts. Continue Reading »

Ok, I’m officially bored with the Blagojevich/Burris story. DiFi said and did the right thing, seeing as how she was running the Rules Committee till her recent switch to chair the Intelligence Committee. Obama isn’t part of the Legislative body, since he started over to the Executive branch and gave up his Senate Seat. So, The One can have one opinion, or the opposite, but he doesn’t get to decide. Reid stuck his neck out too early, and White is slipping and sliding. I don’t care. Another one who may have a legitimate gripe should have made a bigger stink earlier. Now, it just looks badly planned and icky.
Over.
Done.
Let him in and let’s get on with it.
Then, just now Illinois impeaches Blagojevich by a vote of 114 to one present vote. Doe everyone remember what that means? Impeachment is an indictment, NOT conviction of wrongdoing.
Even the timing on that looks suspicious, because of Currie’s comments:
But he did not testify before the House impeachment committee and has not offered an explanation for the federal charges.
“His silence in this great matter is deafening,” said House Majority Leader Barbara Flynn Currie, a Chicago Democrat.
Well, duh! If he is under federal investigation, he’s not going to go spilling his guts in the Illinois Senate. Whether the charges are true or not, that would be foolish. Does anyone think ALL who are pointing fingers and yelling “J’accuse!” are blameless and not using this event to get something? Just darn tiring how Democrats are chewing on each other. You got to ask yourself what’s the purpose and which rats will win.
Still bored.
And much more interested in whether women will get some rights back today.
