Question: Which day are there more collect calls than any other day of the year? Answer: Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all of you fathers. If your call comes collect, be grateful you got the call.


WHOOPS!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rose Back in February we changed our website host and our web designer inadvertently forgot to redirect our email link to our GrassRoots email address. The result was that any email sent via the website was lost in cyberspace. If you contacted us between February and the middle of May via the website please accept our apology for not answering.

Could you please let us know if any of your emails were not answered? Needless to say we were very frustrated when we found out what the problem was, but we have no way to correct it without your help. We are still here and anxious to hear from you.


Thought this was fun!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't delete this just because it looks weird. Believe it or not, you can read it.

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a word are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit plcae.

Love that honey
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't know about you, but I love honey, especially raw and unpasturized. Found this recipe for substituting honey in baking. Although it did not state it, I am assuming that you substitute the honey for sugar in the same quantity. I guess experimenting will determine if you should increase the amount, decrease, or keep it the same.

Anyway, to use honey in place of white sugar in all your baked goods, reduce the liquid in the recipe by ¼ cup for each cup of honey you use. Then add ½ teaspoon of baking soda for each cup of honey. This helps to cut honey's natural acidity. Reduce the baking temperature by 25 degrees to prevent your muffins and cakes from overbrowning.


Meat Supplies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our supplies are good right now. If you are thinking about ordering in the next few months, please let us know so that we can plan ahead. The lead time is at least 6 weeks and giving us advance notice helps a lot. I know we have asked in previous newsletters, but if you Emailed us we did not get it. Please try again!


Thanks!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We appreciate all of you so much. Thanks to all of you for keeping us going. Please drop us a line and let us know you are still with us. Again, we are SO sorry if we missed your previous emails and left you feeling that we were not interested. We are here and very grateful for your business.
