Yeah, cooking for yourself when you are an avid gardener sucks! I was single from 1982 to 1997, having been through 2 marriages. Son was in and out for some of those years when he was not studying in France, the Peace Corps in Morocco, or U of Michigan. Went grocery shopping at a supermarket one day and before I realize what is happening, a clerk and I are on a 3-week honeymoon in Europe. Then we came home and got married!

Hi Dan Just wanted to through in another post for you, if that language gets a little hard you can always get a handheld translator the MT700 English/Chinese/ Mandarin color sentence translator is designed for English speaking people cost $279.99 USD which is about what a couple of blackberry phones cost, might be worth the trouble rather than doing sign language every time you want or need something, it will even speak for you. Looks like you might be growing a few Chinese vegetables next year Yummy. George W.

I have just had a sudden thought With her name being Shaoling-it is remarkably close to (Shaolin) except for the (G) on the end, so she might well be pretty clued up on Kung Fu-so watch out Dan, she might have some pretty smart moves to show you in the garden later on ;D
