Thanks, Sandy. I know what you mean. It is only a cup of jelly and I guess I can buy another jar for a couple dollars but definitely can't buy a new life! Wow! That is a sad story about the lady dying from the ham. Wow! Thanks to you and all the others for sharing in this group and for Delma and Steve for allowing us to share. San Jan, and others are in another group with me and every time we get into an interesting and helpful discussion about things that can help blind people and just people in general, the moderator slams at us to get back on subject and reminds us that it is a cooking group. That is why we are Recipes And More, right, Delma and Steve? Lora

If for one minute you think there could be a piece of glass or shards of it in the jelly, pleeeeeezzzzzzzzeeeeee! throw! it! out! It, the results, could be fatal! When Dale, my husband was doing medical transcription, he typed a sad case; it was around the holidays, the cook had dropped the platter with the ham, and rinsed off the ham, cleaned up the mess from the broken platter, and thought! it was safe!! to eat the ham! wrong! I mean! It was rinsed off, no! glass on! or in! it! right? wrong!! she was the only one home at the time, and decided to eat some of that ham. guess other family members knew of her fiasco, and later, did not! consume it; anyway the cook died, shards of it punctured some of her organs, liver, etc.! what a tragedy! when in doubt, throw it out! pleeze! better safe than sorry! I know meat is expensive, but you are not! a! cat! with 9 lives. you can always get more, but not a new life!

I am a little afraid there could be a piece of glass in it so I will be very careful when I dip it out. I may only use it for me because I have to be so careful what I give to George. I always wipe on the floor with a damp paper towel and then it will pick up little pieces of glass if there are any. That hurts when it gets in your feet.

Never put broken glass in your plastic kitchen garbage. Serious cuts on your legs can be avoided by wrapping glass in paper bags and dispose directly in the outside garbage can. A single candle can illuminate an entire room. A true friend lights up an entire lifetime. Thanks for the bright lights of your friendship. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
