| Just jumping over from the Cooking Forum to see how you are doing in this awful heat wave in Australia. It was 125° in some parts of your country. We miss you and your wonderful recipes. Please take care. Barb |

| Thank you so much for your concern. I rarely visit the Cooking forum these days, and only occasionally pop in to Herbs. I cannot cook for myself these days, and while I still have a few herbs in pots, I've transformed my garden by covering it in its entirety with concrete pavers! All because of continuing ill health. I'm surviving the heat with the help of air-conditioning, but it has been very enervating. I'm lucky that I don't live further inland where temps have soared so much that they've had to increase the map codes! |

| Glad to hear you are all right. You certainly have "interesting" weather, and don't do things in a small way. I'm sorry you can't cook or work in your garden any more, I remember how much you enjoy it. Take care and KEEP COOL.

| Daisy, I'm very sorry to hear that you can no longer do the things you love. I always enjoyed your informative posts and, of course the wonderful recipes, so much. Take care and don't desert us entirely! Barb |

| Good to hear from you, Daisy. I noticed you were here only on rare occasions and hoped all was well. I wish you all the best with your health and for some cooler temperatures to head your way. Perhaps this photo of sunrise earlier this week will help. I did no photoshopping of the colors - the photo is this blue. It is a winter view from my place with the snow and colors giving it a cold and perhaps for yourself, refreshing look. FataMorgana

| Greetings from me too, Daisy. I also wondered where you had got to. Look after yourself. Flora. |

| What a lovely picture, Fatamorgana! Definitely cooling! |
|
| What amazes me, Daisy, is the astonishing amount of information in your little head. Besides being a nice, generous lady with a wicked sense of humor, kind of "Daisy Duckworth's Herbal Compendium". I hope you have a little energy each day to do something that pleases you. And Fata, what the heck were you doing up at that hour?! |

| Batya, *grin* - it wasn't that hard to be up. Sunrise on the morning the picture was taken was at 7:42 am and I think I snapped the picture around 7:15. We have a lot of darkness and lack of sun here at this time of the year. The day (sunrise to sunset) is currently only a little over 9 hours with most days being overcast and cloudy - no sun to be seen. It can get people pretty cranky and depressed. So seeing a clear sky and sunrise like this was exceptional and especially beautiful. FataMorgana |
