The crema has lemon zest and lemon juice for a nice citrus zing to the dill and sour cream. The grean beans have a splendid combination of fresh parmesan cheese, garlic and almonds. So deliciously refined ... and plate lickin' good

Salmon with Dill Crema and Green Beans Amandine ... Way back when, a thousand or so years ago, Europeans believed that dill warded away witches and defended against spells. That was a long time ago; no need to resort to hocus-pocus to enjoy the anise-esque flavor of dill. The herb is paired, as it so often is, with salmon, specifically a stupendous dill crema that dots every bite with delight. Yeah and bonus, it'll keep you from being turned into a toad !!! ... maybe. Bon Appetit
So there I was, mulling about the yard in the rain today, when I took out my trusty pocket knife and clipped a few sprigs of rosemary, on to another bed I clipped some thyme, and mint, and then some oregano sprigs...
I was kicking the dirt because one of my bikes has a worn out chain and chewed up sprockets, and the parts won't be in till Thursday...
Wife went shopping last weekend, always a dangerous thing...

I was trying to make a funny...maybe I missed the mark there?
Not at all, my dearest E. I believe I deserve that honor.
Wow. I really was confused about who was saying what. I didn't get it, now I do. Late at night, pain meds....

DIAMONDS ARE . . . .
DIAMONDS ARE . . . .
This was posted on my FB. I took a self-defense course from a cop many many years ago and she mentioned many of these things. I have implemented every one of them since. They are excellent advice!
"WRITTEN BY A COP: Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or a loved one's life. In daylight hours, refresh yourself of these things to do in an emergency situation... This is for you, and for you to share with your wife, your children, & everyone you know. After reading these 9 crucial tips, forward them to someone you care about. It never hurts to be careful in this crazy world we live in.
1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!
2. Learned this from a tourist guide. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse,
DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you... Chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse.
RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy.. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.
DON'T DO THIS!) The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head,
and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR ,
LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE..
If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF, Repeat:
DO NOT DRIVE OFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.
5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
A.) Be aware:look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor ,
and in the back seat.
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door.
Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women
are attempting to get into their cars. C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side.. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)
6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!)
7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN!
The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; and even then,
it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, Preferably in a zig -zag pattern!
8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.
9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late
and she thought it was weird.. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT
open the door..' The lady then said that it sounded like the baby
had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way,
whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.' He told her that they think a serial killer
has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby.. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night.
10. Water scam! If you wake up in the middle of the night to hear all your taps outside running or what you think is a burst pipe, DO NOT GO OUT TO INVESTIGATE! These people turn on all your outside taps full blast so that you will go out to investigate and then attack.
Send this to anyone you know that may need
to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it
and it's better to be safe than sorry..It may save your life or
a loved one's life."

Since we're doing show-n-tell these are my favorites 
Thank you for posting this, it is a good reminder to all of us. I teach a class of middle and high school girls at my church. We are on break now for the summer but I will be sharing this with them when we start back in September. I am always trying to look out for advice to help keep them safe in today's messed up world.
Now that the cats oughta the bag...
How will I ever find wives numbered 4, 5, & 6 ?!?
LOLz
Even after all this time, I still think this is one of the best looking mods ever made. But yeah, I'm a sucker for Art Deco-ish stuff.
I really need to start using it, and locking the box up somewhere so I won't be tempted to squirrel it away again. But on the other hand, I doubt securing or hiding the case would be needed. I can just put it anywhere and five minutes later I will have no idea of where it is.
