In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Hello there, Erin my darling.  How are you feeling today?  You're not too cold, are you?  It was very hot here this morning.  I have to be careful not to get sunburned.  There was a lot of kelisa (you know, the legume growing on my fence)  to harvest, so I had to bake under the sun for bit with a hook on a long stick.  Have you been busy, my love?  You might as well make as much money as you can while you're hot, and you are hot my love.  You are the most beautiful girl in the world.  You are MY girl.  I love you and I need you.  Anyway, there's nothing much cooking on the stove today.  I have lots of chili left over.  My Mom is back in hospital for knee surgery.  The other knee.  When I was there just now, she gave me her lunch so that took care of my dinner.  I had been snacking on sunflower seeds lately, so I had a craving for peanuts with crispy anchovies.  Yeah.  So I bought some of that while I was downtown.  I had to fry up the anchovies myself when I got home, but it's a great snack.  You must try it sometime.  Plus I kept the leftover anchovy oil.  Great for soup.  So right now, I'm snacking on nuts and crunchy anchovies, and watching how electric clothes dryers are made.  Aaaargh!  An electric clothes dryer is 6000 watts!  That's the heat of 5 hot irons!
