Bagpuss, I have smiley - cat allergies too, and we have a cat. It mainly affects my eyes. Lord C. uses a Nasonex inhaler to curb his allergies. I don't remember what I use, but it's something without a decongestant, since I have hypertension.... smiley - smiley

Now then Xantief.

I think it only works if my plane is hijacked. There doesn't seem to be a more general kidnapping cover. Also, banjos are not mentioned anywhere in the policy.

I just pop pills to stop the sniffles, Lady C. Since my worst symptom is usually puffy itchy eyes I don't know if an inhaled thing would do much good.

Bagpuss, two of the four cats (Chico and Rocky) are so terrified of strangers that you'll never even see them. They'll probably go live next door for a few days. Minerva will want to be petted and will sleep with you if given half a chance, but you'll want your door closed anyway. Molly will make an appearance so you can see how superior she is and then spend the time outside. She much prefers to be outside unless it's bitter cold. Molly and Minerva are both short-haired.

It's the dog who sheds. Her name is Annie and she will expect you to pet her. She's little and very nonthreatening - a real sweetie.

Xantief, I can't kidnap Bagpuss because I don't play the banjo.

Only banjo playing hillbillies can kidnap, then???? With our bunch, I think it's safe to say that everyone will be safe. smiley - biggrin I know of no one in the Possum Bluff clan who plays the banjo. smiley - musicalnote

Unless they have talents we aren't aware of. After barbecues, they are normally musical in other ways. smiley - evilgrin

Hyp, do you still have my email address? Can you email me your brownie recipe? Damn, it probably has chocolate doesn't it. I could substitute carob, I guess.

I hope you can make it to the meet. I am still looking forward to it!

Yea Chauncey and DZ! I'll add you to the list.

Taralome, I'll e-mail you a really good brownie recipe. I've never had them made with carob. But there are peanut butter brownies, maple brownies, blond brownine - lots of kinds without chocolate. I'm soooooooooooooo glad I'm not allergic to chocolate. smiley - hug

Marv, I think all they're bringing is cranberry. If you want to make some, then that would be super. Phred and Xantief may be bringing beverages as well. smiley - evilgrin

Marv, Our plans right now are to bring five gallons of cranberry wine. We may bring some Spiced Apple or Pear as well, but not as much of those.

We are about ready to embark on the spring wine making spree. As soon as strawberries become plentiful at Sam's we'll probably start with those.
