Hello from Baldwin.
How is everyone’s week going? I hope that everyone is having a great one. How do you like this cool weather that we are having? I wish it was a little warmer, but I guess it is the time of year for it to be cooler, isn’t it?
Did you have a good Halloween? I had 20 trick-or-treaters Saturday night. I just love seeing what they come dressed as. I do hope that everyone had a happy and safe Halloween.
Happy belated birthday wishes go out to Amy McCord Allen, yesterday. I hope you had a great birthday Amy and many more happy ones to come. Happy birthday wishes go out next week to Armon Sanders and Curtis Tyler Morris, Sunday; Melvin Masters and Crystal Renfro, Monday; Randall Webb, Brian Jones and Angela Jones, Tuesday; Robert Kelley and Charles David Bolton, Wednesday; Pete Harrison and Christy Cole, Friday; and Audrey Day, Saturday. I hope that you all have very happy birthdays and many more happy ones to come.
Happy anniversary wishes go out next week to Donnie and Angie Morris, Thursday; Ronnie and Effie Burrus, Friday; and Ronnie and Connie Howe, Saturday. I hope that these couples have very happy anniversaries and many more happy ones to come.
On Dec. 4, the Altrusa Club will be having its chili supper at the Fellowship Hall of the First Christian Church on the corner of Main and Lancaster Avenue. They will be serving chili from 5 to 7 p.m. For $5, you will get a hot bowl of chili, a drink and dessert. Children 5 and under eat free.
My sisters and I and other crafters will be set up with our crafts at the chili supper, so before you go to the Richmond City Christmas Parade, stop in and get you a hot bowl of chili to warm you up and look at the crafts. We hope to see you there.
Well I guess that’s all for now. If you hear any news, give me a call at 623-4579 or e-mail pljones61@net zero.com.

Is MSG (monosodium glutamate) harmful?
Monsodium gluatamate (MSG) is a flavor enhancer often added to Chinese food, soups, processed meats and canned vegetables. The use of MSG remains controversial despite a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) statement that it is safe. Because of this, the FDA requires that whenever MSG is added, that it be listed on the label.

Common-sense job hunting
I spent a day with a high-powered and high-profile friend who mentioned that he has more than 700 people a year ask him to help get a new job.
He’s not in the employment business, but is super well connected.
Every now and then, he gets the right person to the right job. -
It’s a love thing
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long, we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus, our Lord.” — Romans 8:35-39

Managing the calving season
Providing sound management during the calving season can mean more live calves.
Excessive losses can mean the difference between a year’s profit or loss for a beef producer.
It is important to have a short calving period to allow frequent observation and assistance if needed. -
Spinach: It’s not just for Popeye anymore
A spinach-loving reader recently approached me to request a column on things to do with her favorite vegetable.
“Favorite vegetable?” You may ask, and rightly so.
When many of us were growing up …and we’re talking Baby Boomers here, the only spinach product known to us was the stuff that came in a can, and it was, in a word, horrible! -
Topping trees is a bad practice
Topping damages hundreds of trees each year in Kentucky.
Many people are unaware of the detrimental effects of this practice.
Topping involves the drastic removal or cutting back of large branches in mature trees leaving stubs.
Topping can make a tree hazardous and reduce its life. -

Preschool screenings and birthday surprises
Hi!
... and the wind blew and blew. Perhaps this is the windy season!
Where is the snow? Students are starting to do snow dances, hoping they can coax enough snow to fall so they can make a proper snowman.
(I'm sure they hope it will fall on a weekend so they won’t have to miss school! lol) - More Lifestyles & Community Headlines
