Successful Marriages Require A High Degree of Mutual Toleration,

My Grandfather George William Pillsbury with his siblings 
Leonard and Adeline Jane.

"Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal

is going to waste a lot of time running around 

shouting that he has been robbed. 

The fact is that most putts don’t drop, 

most beef is tough, 

most children grow up to be just like people, 

most successful marriages require a 

high degree of mutual toleration, 

and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. 

Life is just like an old time rail journey ...

 delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, 

interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. 

The trick is to thank the Lord for letting 

you have the ride."

How to get back to Classic Yahoo Mail

So I know I'm a slouch. 

I haven't written forever.

But, I have had issues.

One of the issues is in the 

picture above.

But the good news is that I just figured out how to get my Classic Yahoo Mail back.                                                        

Go to your Control Panel in your Windows 7. Change the resolution to make your screen 800x600 resolutions.

Go back into your Yahoo Mail and it will give you the option to change your email back to classic mail.

Now change it back.

Now go back into your control panel and change the resolution to the one you want and save it.

And that is all there is to it :)

Love,

Remember That Time When We Used to Make Homemade Root Beer?

Homemade Root Beer

When my husband was going to school 
at BYU in the late 60's 
a young man named Finlinson 
from Delta, Utah 
taught me to make 
homemade
 root beer.


He brought me his families bottle capper and away 
we went having the best time making 
it and then putting it in 
the dark basement 
until 
it was fizzy. 


It was so fun and very yummy.


This morning I happened upon this recipe for 
homemade root beer and wanted 
to share it. 

Ingredients:

Serves:

80

Serving Size: 1 cup

2 ounces McCormick® Root Beer Concentrate

5 pounds sugar

5 gallons lukewarm spring water, (approximately 95°F)

1 package (1/4 ounce/7 g) dry active yeast

1 cup pre-boiled water, (cooled to 85° to 95°F)

Directions

1. Clean and sanitize all bottling equipment according to information below. Shake Root Beer Concentrate well. Mix with sugar in a large container. (DO NOT USE ALUMINUM). Stir in spring water.
2. 
   
3. Dissolve yeast in 1 cup pre-boiled water. Allow yeast to dissolve undisturbed 10 to 15 minutes. Add to sugar mixture and stir well.
4. 
   
5. Bottle immediately into plastic bottles, leaving 2-inch space at top of bottle. Cap tightly. Store each bottle on its side in a warm place (70° to 80°F) for 1 to 2 days, then store upright in refrigerator at 40° to 45°F for additional 3 to 4 days. Keep refrigerated and consume within 7 to 8 days.
