MsMai... sometimes a lot can be lost in translation when it comes to e-mailing and chatting at forums such as this.

I really don't think mama meant any harm or insult in her post at all on any level. In fact, I think she meant what she wrote as a warm expression of support to YOU.

We hope you don't take a break or leave the neighborhood. You're fun, offer a lot and we enjoy you.

Goofy thangs happen sometimes, but w/ regard to Spice Place, for me the good far outweighs the bad. In fact, although when it happens here it IS weird... I believe in my experience, it actually happens HERE far less than it does elsewhere.

Please consider hanging around/remaining. I encourage you to re-think what mama wrote. I really do think it may have been misconstrued...You leaving would be a loss, for sure. winks- kevin

asking me to ignore the posts and she is right. I love it here. Just try to get rid of me!

I have been a bit short on patience this week. I endured a capsule endoscopy and it was a bad few days. The anticipation was the worst part of the procedure, the procedure was not bad at all except I did not eat for 25 hours. Now, Chubbs, you just don't do that to a foodie. It creates a BAD mood.

I am sure the other person posting here has better things to do too. We could spend our time posting some good recipes.

Thanks for your support and the warm welcome you have extended to me here. You are the best. I enjoy all of the folks here and the recipes are great. I hope to be here a long, long time.
