Good morning! Another great shot of our Chief Wood & AMR by 1st Response Photography! Here's a question for you. At what point do you risk insulting your entire family & legally changing your name? I’ve been doing the genealogy thing every day & this morning I found this … one of our relatives: ARCHIBALD BUTT Married: Grace Beers Who then became Beers-Butt. Divorced her & then married LAURA ESTELLE ENNIS Who then became Ennis-Butt. His sister’s married name was:

Catherine French Butt-Slaughter. That was my laugh for the morning. Poor guy. He was in WWI. Can you imagine boot camp? Where everyone gets a nickname based on their name? Yesterday was a slow day considering I made up for all the sleep I missed all week & got up at 2:p. Pete didn't get up until 3:p. I had a boiled egg for breakfast, tried to fix an issue w/ the facebook app on my iPhone 5 but had no luck (apparently I can send pictures to facebook only if I'm in my photo album when I start. If I try to upload a picture from within the facebook app, it says that the app doesn't have access to my photo album & to go fix that in the settings, which Kyle & I both tried to do but couldn't), chatted w/ Andrew on the

phone, watched a movie on Netflix, then started my new quilt crochet project (2nd pic), which required going through some 5,000 different patterns, choosing ONE, then going through almost as much yarn & choosing THREE. I spent the rest of the night until about 6:a working on that because neither Pete or I were even close to tired after sleeping as late as we did. Yesterday's Sims game was Sturbridge (3rd

& 4th pics). My Sim Ivan (4th gen) is in grade school & has been doing his homework. The family dog died of old age & they adopted a Ragdoll kitten named Snowshoe who's neat & adventurous to keep their other cat company. This morning the FD had 2 early AM med calls & I took the dogs out. Today's Sims game is Bentbrook Farm & my Sim Orlando is in the university towards a science & medicine degree. He's been going to classes.

According to a new medical study in Canada - & you have to believe this when you read it - it's official, says medical study: ... Men's brains shrink as they get older, & women's don't. Hey, that's not so bad. If I have to have 1 thing shrink as I got older, my body part of choice would be the brain. -Johnny Carson 1991

Belgian King Leopold II was too ill to attend his own wedding in 1853, so he sent his brother-in-law Archduke Charles to stand in for him.

Cooking:

A cooking app with absolutely no recipes. Instead, KnowledgeBook: Cooking contains all the little bits of information and rules of thumb that you need to really use and understand your recipes -- what can be substituted for buttermilk or baking soda in a pinch, how many bananas it takes to make 1 cup of slices, how many cups are in a pint, what temperature an oven should be set to if the recipe calls for a "moderately hot" oven, etc.
KnowledgeBook: Cooking compiles all this information in one place, and adds much more: what can be substituted for buttermilk if you don't have vinegar? How many US cups are in an Imperial pint? (or an Australian pint?) What does it mean to papillote something? How should a slow cooker recipe be adjusted at high altitude? What temperature in Fahrenheit does Gas Mark 6 on a British stove correspond to?
With sections for Yields and Equivalents (including canning yields), Substitutions, general cooking terms, Measurement conversions, and High-Altitude considerations, KnowledgeBook: Cooking aims to be a one-stop reference for all the "extra" information needed to help you understand your recipes and get to Cooking!
What people are saying about KnowledgeBook: Cooking:
"It's almost become indispensable. I've used every feature. If you cook, bake, or can, you NEED this!"
("Samsnona", KnowledgeBook:Cooking 1.2.0, May 2012)
"This app is a must have for any one who calls his or herself a culinarian whether a novice or a professional. I love that the app reveals yields, substitutions and relevant and different information for cooking instead of only recipes."
("HI Life", KnowledgeBook:Cooking version 1.2.0, Jul 2012)
"As a caterer, I have found this app to be very valuable...I love the yields for produce. It's great to know how much of a fairly expensive item I will need to make a recipe. This cuts down on waste a great deal and saves me money."
("Phoenix 1972", KnowledgeBook:Cooking version 1.10, Feb. 2011)
"I have installed a similar app but this one is much better. It's really useful in cooking."
("Asparago", KnowledgeBook:Cooking version 1.0.1, Jan 2011)
"Excellent app very handy for alternative ingredients and very informative :) must have app"
("Cheeksnes", KnowledgeBook:Cooking version 1.0.1, Jan 2011)
"Awesome app! The best cooking reference app I've ever used all wrapped up in a beautiful FREE bow! It's actually better than most of the paid cooking reference apps and those don't offer HALF the info this one does. A must have for anyone who cooks!"
("Tatem214", KnowledgeBook:Cooking version 1.0.0, Dec 2010)

It takes a great deal of character strength to apologize quickly out of one's heart rather than out of pity. A person must possess himself & have a deep sense of security in fundamental principles & values in order to genuinely apologize.
