That confuses me, I know many people who have had knees replaced. I hope the injections help.

Oh, I cook with carrots for the flavor and I will happily snack on them raw, but the texture of cooked carrots is just ick for me. Hubs always eats all of the cooked carrots I pick out and put to the side of my plate.

Wowow!!! Congrats for finding something that actually had spices.

Oh, it is pretty obvious that there is bad blood over the property line and grass growth. You know those powder lines they put down on football fields? I saw one of those marking the line between their pretty big yards. Of course I’ve always looked every time I’ve gone by.

I didn’t think we needed them last time. I was so wrong.

Oh, I’m glad I could help! They really do make my life easier.

Three stories, wow. The stairs. I’m sure you have a super cute place, but all those stairs aren’t great for old farts with iffy balance. Start taking Tai Chi, that will help too.

I call it nut juice, but I don’t have children. Yes, I know that oats are a grain but I classify it the same as almond milk.

Nut juice doesn’t react like cows milk. I’d think you would need to add thickening agents to get it to set properly.

I have made non-dairy cheese in the past for a pizza place. It didn’t really look like cheese, but it could be grated and it did melt. It took a lot of work and more chemicals than you would like to know about.

Fingers crossed that it is good news, but I agree that you are correct and you can’t even make an educated guess at this point. I’m glad the side effects aren’t that bad.
