Hi,

This is t. I have put together another web page with pictures of our new cat, Nag Champa, who we caught on our front doorstep the day before yesterday.

You may recognize him from the previous pictorial as the orange tabby that was trading off the food dish with the racoon.

Here is the URL for the web page:

Hello,

Those photos are incredible! What tremendous beauty. I'll ask Ev to remove the camera date from the photo using the Photoshop program, and then we'll print both photos on glossy paper and display them. Thank you!

It's snowing here. We tried to cage-trap the black-and-white cat last night, but he didn't go in the trap, so we finally took the cage inside and put out a big plate of dry catfood and beef fat. I'm afraid that I'll have to avoid leaving any food outside for one night, so that he will be hungry enough to go into the trap the next night. I hate to do that, because he and the raccoons will go hungry.

It's the fourteenth day of my detoxification from alcohol. I no longer have any cravings for alcohol. For the past several days, I've been lowering the amount of Atavan that I've been taking. (This is the medicine that my doctor cribed for me to help me with the detox.) As of yesterday, I'm down to one-half of one tablet per day. That's down from six tablets per day at the beginning. It's been very uncomfortable at times; my brain's and body's chemistries have had to adjust. But I feel better now.

Happy New Year's Eve. I know that it isn't Chinese New Year's Eve, but you can celebrate both! We're going to celebrate by staying at home with our cats, and making Mongolian hot pot. We bought ingredients two days ago, but I was too tired last night to prepare them. I know that everything has to be sliced very thinly. We bought lean beef, tiny zucchini, snow peas, asparagus, and tofu. (Since we're on low-carbohydrate diets, everything had to be low-carbohydrate, so we can't have noodles or rice.)

On New Year's Day, we'll go to lunch at a special brunch buffet at Old Sturbridge Village, which is the restored 19th century farming village that I told you about. It's only five miles from us. We went to brunch at their restaurant yesterday, and it was excellent. If you people visit us, we'll take you to eat there. The restaurant had closed a year ago, but was recently bought and reopened by a different company, and the company has signed a ten-year contract with OSV, so they won't close during that time. Good!!!

I'll ask Ev to take some photos of the snow to email to you. He's asleep now. I woke up at 4:30 a.m., which is too early. Cut down on the Atavan is causing me a little difficulty in sleeping. I dreamt that my feet were full of worms, and that I was trying to pull the worms out from under my skin. Then I woke up and thought, "If I'm going to dream things like that, I'd rather stay awake!"

Thank you again for the photos, and the hot pot packages.

Love,

Hi, I'll like to ask a few question regarding one of the product that was on you site. Gorgeous Chinese Traditional Illuminous Dragon Dance Equipments Complete Set There are a few questions that I'll like to ask regarding it, -First of all I'm in the united state so if I really decide to order it how long will it take for it to be deliver and arrive. -How many people is the set for? -We are a student organization and I am wondering if there's any discount that we could get if we order the set. We're a student organization in the State University at Buffalo located in Buffalo, New York. The name of our organization is CSA which stands for Chinese Student Association and the purpose of this set is for the annual show "China Night" that we will host in mid-late April. The Chinese Student Association (CSA) is one of the oldest, largest and most active organizations at University at Buffalo. CSA promotes the interests and awareness of Chinese culture in the Buffalo community while functioning as a means of social engagement. Also I’ve try calling the number on your site, but was not successful. If possible please leave me a number that I can call and we can discuss the details on the order, we can speak English/Chinese on your preference.
