Whole cloves are a deterrent to ants. They don't like them and will
avoid an area with them. I drop a clove or two on the open shelves by
my sink.

I've got one recipe that calls for a tablespoon of molasses, and I use
it every other year.

And I think tomorrow is the day; I'd better check that there is
molasses in the refrigerator.

(It's buckwheat pancakes.) (And I have to start the batter the night
before, it turns out. Good thing you made me look it up!)

I bought the fabric for my jeans from Wm. Booth, Draper:

(To get to the frame this page was displayed in, backspace to the
first slash.)

I didn't even look at my sewing today.

Glad to have been of service :-)

My next question also has nothing to do with sewing but if you could give me
the recipe for cuckwheat pancakes I'd appreciate it - you could mail it.

Ah, not in my part of the world then ... Interestingly it said ,'at the sign

Oh, of course! Sorry, I forgot.

Haven't been a virgin for over fifty years ... is that the cause of my
failing memory I wonder ...
