I think Hurricane Hanna's side effects came by today. It poured rain for hours! And today we were hosting a BBQ for 20 plus people on our Board of Directors and some new members in our Canadian Industrial Heritage Centre group.

Now some would give up and say cancel it, but not I. I believe in the Secret. And I pratice it. So I put my mind to it and decided that the rain would quit about 3 pm when my guests were due to arrive. My husband looked at me and said it looks like it is here for the day. I refused to believe it and pictured my party in the sunshine outdoors. I cleaned my house inside from top to bottom just in case, but somehow I knew we would be outside. About 2:45 PM the sky broke and the sun peeked through, and then it came out full force! Everything dried up and the party was a success! I thanked the Universe and God for listening to me, and said how grateful I was and how much these volunteer deserved to have a nice day. My son in law Court cooked up a gastronomic delight. BBQ chicken, with veggie Ka-Bobs, pasta salad, and caesar salad, we had fresh rolls, adn he baked apple crisp and sweet potato pie drizzled in chocolate with mint leaf for added effect for dessert. The wine and beer were flowing and what a lovely day we had! I don't recall having one hotflash during the day!

Now tonite is a different story, I have had a few already. Check out my home page, for a story about whether the food we eat exaggerates our hot flashes or not. Also check out my guestbook for my cousing Fancy Nancy's opinion.

What do you think? does certain food cause you to heat up?

If you are what you eat, then I am a chicken, and sweet potato pie!
