MY ANSWERS TO BEING 'TAGGED' BY SHALEE

7 THINGS THAT MOST FOLKS DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME

#1--I still know & can understand a LOT of 'FRENCH'--after studying it for 2 years in high school--40 years ago!

#2--Same goes for 'SHORTHAND'--36 years ago!

#3--DoctorS told me (us) I'd probably NEVER have CHILDREN & we had TWO MIRACLES and now have THREE GRANDbabies--PRAISE & THANK YOU, GOD!!!

#4--When I was young--I would lift up my SKIRT to rub my belly button. But, I stopped at age '23'--just kidding, I was actually '6'!!!!!! (I'm not proud of this one, but hubby said to add it.)

#5--I attended Christian schools all my life & was truly SHOCKED when I first heard folks cursing & lying & just being RUDE in my first job out of College--at ASU!!!!

#6--I have SUNG in some Chorus for at least 25 YEARS!!!!!

#7--I've NEVER broken a bone in my body (YET!)--BUT, my hubby has broken 32, so he's broken enough for OUR WHOLE FAMILY--although our AR Grandbaby broke his LEG tripping over a tennis ball last Summer at the Lake, so he's off to a FAST start, doesn't he?!!!!!

BEST 'BLT'S' EVER!!!!!

We had the BEST BLT's/Bacon/Lettuce/Tomato Sandwiches that I've EVER HAD the other night--HERE!!!!! I bought Texas Toast--& toasted one side of each piece in the oven WITH BUTTER--& Fresh Lettuce & Tomatoes at the store. Then, the BEST PART was the BACON my hubby had found at Sam's Club--it's got PEPPER all down one side--'WRIGHT' brand Natural Smoked THICK Sliced Peppered Bacon--we cooked it in the oven, too, and then finished it in our microwave, to make it crisp like we like it. Added a little mustard, like we like it--and, I'm telling you they were THE BEST BLT's EVER!!!!! And, I've had them all over--even in Myrtle Beach, SC!

I won't usually use my blog for posting recipes, but I just HAD to pass this one along--it was/is THAT GOOD--hope you try & ENJOY IT!!!!!!!!!

FLOSSING TIPS

Okay, I know I'm OVER '50', but just yesterday I learned SOMETHING NEW at the Dentist about FLOSSING MY TEETH!!!!! I have a WONDERFUL Dentist, Dr. Ruse, and I go get checked every 6 months, religiously; and this time I had 2 MORE CAVITIES--in between 4 of my FRONT TEETH--YIKES!!!!!

I have been flossing almost every night--in front of our TV. Well, I found out, for the first time, that it's REALLY BETTER to floss in FRONT of a MIRROR--to see what you're doing better--AND, it's also IMPORTANT to make sure that you floss ALL THE WAY AROUND each tooth. at your gums. I hadn't been doing EITHER ONE of those things, but will START, NOW & wanted to pass them on to ya'll--FOR FREE--we only get ONE SET of our OWN teeth--and, they are tied in to our OVER-ALL HEALTH, so we need to take care of them the BEST WE CAN--GOOD LUCK!!!
