It is split into two areas, Fès-el-Bali (old Fès) and Fès-el-Djedid (new Fès) wich makes the city a mystical fusion of an ancient Islamic past, and the French influenced recent present.

The Extinction of the Scrollbar
In the new Mac OS X Lion operating system, there has been a noticeable change to the interface: the removal of the scrollbar. Users can adjust their settings to add scrollbars back in, but the fact that this option is even offered speaks volumes about the diminishing role of this once-indispensable interface element.
Since the early days of GUIs, the scrollbar has provided a way for users to navigate around an object that's too large to fit within a window. However, over the past few years, users have been given other ways to scroll: mice with scrollwheels, laptop trackpads with scrolling capabilities, and a new set of gestures for mobile devices and tablets. With this reduction of the role of scrollbars, it's important for designers to be conscious of the scrollbar's benefits and drawbacks, and to know how to replace it with other elements that have similar benefits.
Benefits of the Scrollbar
In addition to allowing the user to scroll, the scrollbar has several other important benefits. The height of the scrollbar relative to the window corresponds to the height of the visible content relative to that of the full content. This provides an at-a-glance sense of scope and orientation. In addition, the mere existence of the scrollbar indicates that content is hidden, and communicates the direction users must scroll to find it. Furthermore, when navigating a long piece of content, the scrollbar offers a way to rapidly move to a specific point within that content. Finally, the universal familiarity with the scrollbar makes it a very intuitive interface element for the vast majority of users. It provides all these benefits elegantly and efficiently, without distracting from the page content.
Drawbacks of the Scrollbar
Despite these benefits, the scrollbar has several drawbacks that have led to its diminished importance. First, it adds to interface complexity at a time when designers are striving for, and users are demanding, simplification. Secondly, it's positioned inconveniently. If you're within the flow of a task, moving your mouse all the way over the right side of the window to scroll up and down is distracting. Another drawback of the scrollbar is that it moves on a continuum and not in defined increments, which isn't optimal in some situations, such as paging through eBooks and navigating a series of objects (e.g., a photo album or a slideshow).
Scrolling on Computers and Mobile Devices
For web pages and mobile devices, scrolling vertically is very standardized. Content almost always extends vertically, so an indication of how to find hidden content is rarely needed.
Due to the drawbacks mentioned above, the scrollbar has been replaced with other methods of navigating content panes. In mobile devices, users swipe vertically upon the content itself in order to scroll. In most cases, the scrollbar briefly appears when the content loads, then quickly disappears. It only reappears again when scrolling is activated. This gives users a sense of orientation and scope without consuming precious screen real estate.
On computers, the scrollbar's primary function—scrolling—has been made almost irrelevant by hardware innovations. Apple laptop trackpads enable users to scroll with a two-finger swipe, and their touch-sensitive mice allow scrolling with a vertical swipe. On many Windows-based computers, the right edge of the trackpad has a defined area for scrolling, while mice commonly have a scrollwheel. In web browsers, using the up and down arrows scrolls the content as well.
In addition, sites such as Google, Facebook, and Foursquare are overriding the standard browser scrollbar with a narrower, lighter version, matching Apple's slimmed-down scrollbar.
Scrolling on the iPad
Unlike mobile apps and websites, iPad apps are extremely variable in terms of their layouts, often utilizing multi-column, magazine-style displays. Designers of iPad apps are also much more experimental in their use of gestural interactions. Consequently, interfaces are very unstandardized, so having indicators that show how to navigate is important.
The Mint app (below) provides some examples of these indicators. The top graph area uses a series of dots as a clear indicator that a horizontal swipe reveals more content. By showing a specific number of dots, and the user's position within the set, it also provides orientation and scope.
In the lower right, the row of spending categories fades off the screen to the right, which is an often-used indicator of continuation, suggesting that content curves off the screen like a scroll.
In this example, users can actually vertically scroll the lower-right area as well. But this capability lacks any visual indicator, making it difficult to discover.
Like the Mint app, the USA Today app uses a subtle fade at the bottom of their main screen to suggest continuation. They also cut off the content at the bottom of the screen, suggesting that you can scroll vertically to see the rest.
To compensate for an unclear scrolling mechanism, the Wall Street Journal app shows detailed scrolling instructions. This technique is used in other apps as well; Flipboard and The Daily provide instructions on some screens to "flip" or "swipe" to continue.
This type of instruction is often necessary for apps that allow innovative gestural interactions. However, for an action as basic and essential as scrolling, apps should adhere to conventions and include visual affordances that clearly imply the interaction method.
Wired actually created a custom scrollbar for quickly scanning through their magazine. While it doesn't exactly have the traditional scrollbar functionality, its benefits match those described above: it allows the user to scroll, indicates how to see hidden content, and provides a sense of orientation and scope.
Since the early days of GUIs, scrollbars have been built into windows so designers could just take them for granted. However, as the prominence of system scrollbars has reduced, designers need to be more conscious of them, and understand the benefits of scrollbars that are lost when they're not shown. For all platforms, it's increasingly up to designers to decide whether to use scrollbars, how to format them, or how to use other methods to replace the many benefits of this once-indispensible element.
Add new comment
For me the fading scrollbar on Mac OSx causes frustration especially when in Google Agenda, I sometimes cannot finish my action and wait till I have access to another machine that does give me the scrollbar options. To me that is bad UX when someone cannot finish their actions. I never do anything with my settings, the intuitive option should be offered at first glance, all the alternatives should be options
Dots: I believe my first experience with the dots were when I was looking for flash photo slideshows many years ago to use in my designs. Now I see them everywhere. When a user sees this interface for the first time as an auto-advancing slideshow, it is an instant learn. The current dot changes when the slide changes. This subtle activity draws curiosity and the user explores by clicking on one of them and before you know it, another user is fully trained on the dots as used for this and other purposes.
Hi all, for what its worth, I believe Apple has patented the fading scrollbar as seen on their products. I suppose this could be seen as a blessing and a curse: I love a pure content page, but this now forces everyone else to "think different" and dilutes the interaction from achieving widespread usage.
Two things: (1) As others have stated, the dots do not "clearly indicate a horizontal scroll, at least not to me. (2) The area occupied by the three dots is at least as tall as what would be occupied by a horizontal scrollbar, and takes up more valuable real estate, so what have they really accomplished?
Dots aren't always used to indicate scrolling... The times I've seen them used, they indicated different images/screens within a designated area. You'd click the dot and that image/screen in the assigned area would change to the next one in the list. Click it again and that image/screen changes, once again. Definitely not the same as scrolling.
The scrollbar was one of the first things I missed in Lion. Scrolling in long lists with the scrollbar is much more effective and faster than with the mouse wheel. And I haven't seen a working alternative approach to this problem. This is not the only drawback in usability with the new OS version. We should not blindly praise all the stuff that Apple is doing.
This is a stupid, stupid trend that needs to die. Not everything Apple does is worth copying or adopting, and this is really just annoying. Even by killing the scrollbars, Microsoft has done a much better job with Metro to give the user hints on what is scrollable and what not.
@kasperns @Will Hughes @steve Thanks for the comments! In regard to the dots, I would say that intuitiveness is always in the eye of the beholder. What's intuitive to a particular user is always based on what that user already understands. If you've never seen the dots, of course you don't immediately know what they do. But the same could be said for the scrollbar, or any interface element for that matter. In many cases, the best chance you have for creating something usable is to use something standardized, and the dots are one of the more standardized interface elements on the iPad and iPhone, and variations on the model have been used on websites for years (look at the main banners on Yahoo!, MSN, ESPN, GE, etc).
In addition, I also think the dots are an efficient, nicely designed element. They communicate a great deal at a glance, and share many benefits with the scrollbar. Their horizontal orientation relates to the direction of scroll (the panels often transition with a horizontal slide). Also, like scrollbars, they provide a sense of scope, indicated by the quantity of dots.
In response to the issue of scalability, which Steve mentioned, imagine stringing the dots together instead of spacing them apart, making room for more dots. In this case, what do you have? A scrollbar! But you're right, Steve, using dots works best when you're dealing with a reasonably small amount of data.
This really makes me wonder when reading that the author believes that the three dots are 'clear indicators'... The dots are in no way clear - they are a highly symbolical and indirect way to guide the user, which will only work if the user can translate that a dot means another page. This takes knowledge or a lot of calculation. No exactly intuitive... Apple already did this mistake also.
Sorry, but the dots for pagination / scrolling are NOT a clear indicator of anything unless you've already been introduced to that UI concept.
New or non-technical users are unlikely to discover that functionality without prompting.
Also, the title and premise of the article is misleading... The scroll bar is not going extinct, and the rest of the article talks about how the scroll bar lives on. Albeit modified to suit new tasks.
The dots Mint uses have been all over the web for years. They are a web designer staple. The problem is that many users still don't know what they mean. Also, they are a pagination element and look terrible if you have many dots. Won't work vertically either. The fade is nice but gives no indication of orientation.
The Mint app dot indicators are so clever. Clean and simple, the dots replicate the experience of gauging the scope of the information, much like a scrollbar. Providing the user with the tools to judge how much time they can anticipate to invest in the site can be as simple as this.

This article has some good advice to prepping kids for blood tests.
This is a good video and maybe since your kids like science and learning.....maybe it would be helpful to see this before hand. Maybe too he would want to learn about blood and all the different kinds (or at least a few of things) that can be learned from testing blood?
And yes I would definitely bribe him. Medical procedures in my family earn people presents.

Dog-friendly Hotels?

I've also found that some "pet-friendly" hotels charge a huge non-refundable pet fee (for instance, $75 per stay, which for a one-night stay can be as much as 50% more for the room!) I suppose it's so they can pass themselves off as dog-friendly.

As my husband and I were moving across country from Seattle, WA to mid-Michigan several years ago, we also ran into this problem. One well known hotel chain had a weight limit of 8# (!) and another was willing to let us rent a room provided we would take a smoker's room-yuck! We eventually did find a room in a cheap motel where our Cairn Terrier was welcome, but it was really horrible--smelled like nasty disinfectants and Jack walked in and promptly squatted on the floor. I mean, "hey, if it smells like a toilet"......... My husband grabbed him up in his arms and took him outside before Jack could do anything, but we kept him on the bed with us for the rest of the night because the carpeting smelled so foul. So no good news here--if we ever have to travel overnight with our current pooch (Jack passed away last year from adenocarcinoma; we now have a 60# Collie) I think we're going to try campgrounds instead.

We've managed to get little Maggie (11 lbs.) in more than a few "no pet" hotels. One was a very nice antique-filled bed-and-breakfast. They made an exception for Maggie after we promised to bring a collapsible sport kennel and told them she'd recently earned her Canine Good Citizen award. When the owners met her and saw that she was quiet and well behaved, she was even invited into the dining room during breakfast. I'm quite sure they'd never heard of a Canine Good Citizen certificate (they were more cat people), but they seemed impressed and we had a copy ready to show them if asked. Good girl Maggie!

We welcome all dogs (and people) at the Blue Heron Bed and Breakfast on Orcas Island, WA. We have found that dog owners are friendly, respectful, and take amazing care of their pets. This is our 4th season and I can honestly say that we have not had a problem with any size dog that we have had. Next week, we will have a couple here with four dogs that have come to western Washington for agility training. All I can say is, "Yahoo!" The pet host, Pulaski (our very hard working black lab that constantly demands overtime in extra dog bones!)gets excited each time we place a basket in the guest room for the pet. He spends the rest of the day looking for who is coming! Great fun!

By Foo Yun Chee and Sonya Dowsett
BRUSSELS/MADRID (Reuters) - Three nationalized Spanish banks will more than halve their balance sheets in five years, cut jobs and impose losses on their creditor bondholders in return for a euro zone rescue, while a fourth will be sold off, the European Commission said.
The measures, approved by the Commission on Wednesday, are a condition of 40 billion euros ($52 billion) in aid that offers hope for an end to a banking crisis which has pushed Spain to the brink of a sovereign bailout to keep the government afloat.
The plan sets in motion one of the biggest overhauls of any European banking system since the financial crisis began in mid-2007 with the near collapse of German lender IKB.
"Our objective is to restore the viability of banks receiving aid so that they are able to function without public support in the future," said European Union Competition Commissioner Joaquin Almunia.
The Spanish state took over Bankia
The four banks account for just under a fifth of Spain's banking system. They must transfer 45 billion euros of soured property assets to a "bad bank" as another condition of receiving the aid.
The smallest of the four, Banco de Valencia, will be sold to Caixabank
Shares in Banco de Valencia, which had been suspended on Wednesday morning, dropped by more than 16 percent after they resumed trading, to 0.152 euro per share.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) said on Wednesday that Spain's financial sector reform is on track and all deadlines have been met so far, but difficult steps remained while risks for the economy and the country's lenders remain high.
Selling Banco de Valencia under a loss protection scheme will be cheaper than winding it down, the Commission said. Spain has also agreed to sell Novagalicia Banco and Catalunya Banc within 5 years or liquidate them, Almunia said.
The nationalized banks will have to close up to half their branches during the five-year overhaul, resulting in thousands more job losses in a recession which has already pushed unemployment up to 25 percent.
The biggest of the banks, Bankia, said it would lay off 6,000 staff - over a quarter of its workforce - and reduce its branch network by around 39 percent under a plan to return to profitability by 2013.
"Our clients can be totally reassured because we have a viable and solid business in which they can be absolutely sure of their savings," said Chairman Jose Ignacio Goirigolzarri.
Bankia, formed from the merger of seven savings banks in 2010 and taken over in May in Spain's biggest bank rescue, said it would shed 50 billion euros of assets. These include stakes in insurer Mapfre
Public debt holdings would fall to 30 billion euros from 40 billion now, Bankia said, while shareholders will contribute 10.7 billion to the clean-up. Bankia shares fell 4 percent.
Holders of Bankia's hybrid debt would contribute up to 4.8 billion euros to the recapitalization through losses incurred by swapping their holdings for shares, the bank said.
The Commission said the cost to hybrid and subordinated bondholders in the restructuring of all four of the nationalized banks will come to about 10 billion euros.
Many hybrid debt holders are retail customers who say they were conned into buying complex financial instruments that buoyed the banks' capital levels, instead of putting their money into fixed-term savings accounts.
The Spanish government, fearing a political backlash, fought for these losses to be minimized, but Brussels insisted the subordinated bondholders share the pain in order to keep the use of taxpayers' funds to a minimum.
Almunia, a former Spanish government minister, said he would decide on other Spanish banks with capital shortfalls on December 20. Banco Popular

(LONDON, ENGLAND) -- A drunken woman looking for a place to sleep slipped past security and onto an aircraft at Aberdeen airport in Scotland where she dozed unnoticed for several hours, sparking a review of security.
The British Airports Authority (BAA) said Monday it had launched a full investigation after the woman -- reported by a newspaper to be a scantily clad stripper -- scaled a fence and boarded a private jet.
"The young woman was found aboard an aircraft last Thursday and an investigation is under way," a BAA spokesman said.
The Sun newspaper said 22-year-old Soraya Wilson was discovered eight hours after she passed out in the plane's cockpit. She was cautioned but not charged.
"I don't know who was more embarrassed when they found me, the security men or me, because I was just wearing my knickers and a little top when I woke up," she told the paper.

Across sand, dirt, forests, and of course pavement, nothing else adapts like the KLR™650. Built for almost any terrain an adventurous rider could dream up, this dual-sport can go the distance with its rugged single-cylinder engine and incredible fuel efficiency. Effective wind protection and a 6.1-gallon fuel tank ensure incredible range between stops. Combine that with an aluminum rear cargo rack that accommodates saddlebags or a tailbag, and it's a winning combination – so much so that the KLR has been the best-selling dual-sport seven years in a row.
The Best-Selling Dual-Sport Goes the Distance
Across sand, dirt, forests, and of course pavement, nothing else adapts like the KLR™650. Built for almost any terrain an adventurous rider could dream up, this dual-sport can go the distance with its rugged single-cylinder engine and incredible fuel efficiency. Effective wind protection and a 6.1-gallon fuel tank ensure incredible range between stops. Combine that with an aluminum rear cargo rack that accommodates saddlebags or a tailbag, and it's a winning combination – so much so that the KLR has been the best-selling dual-sport seven years in a row.
A single-cylinder, 651cc four-stroke engine propels this world traveling powerhouse. Its quick throttle response and healthy low-end grunt is the perfect power profile to carve through trails or deal with traffic jams.
Matching the engine's abilities every step of the way is the KLR650's suspension. A 41mm fork with 7.9 inches of suspension travel up front, and a Uni-Trak® linkage system providing 7.3 inches of wheel travel in the rear combine to make the KLR650 a fun, functional commuter during the week and an adept backroad blaster on weekends.
Braking duties are handled by a dual-piston caliper gripping a 280mm petal-style disc in the front, and a 240mm petal-style disc squeezed by a single-piston caliper in the rear. This suspension and brake package boosts the KLR650's on-road performance without diminishing its versatile off-road capabilities.
An expansive, saddlebag-friendly, rear luggage rack that can be fitted with a tail bag helps to make the KLR650 a worthy touring companion. A large, 6.1-gallon fuel tank and exemplary fuel economy mean the KLR650 can cover an amazing amount of ground between fill-ups.
That fuel range can translate into a long day in the saddle, so good wind protection is a must. This important job is handled by the frame-mounted bodywork, which includes a tall windscreen and large shrouds. Rider comfort is enhanced further by the seat design and plush urethane foam. A high-capacity 36-watt alternator pumps out enough juice for a high-output headlight and has the extra capacity to power the add-on electronic gadgets that no touring rider can live without.
The KLR650's competent on-road performance continues once the pavement stops. A tough engine guard keeps loose rocks and gravel at bay, while its U.S. Forest Service-approved spark arrestor grants the KLR650 access to any terrain open to licensed vehicles. Add the optional Kawasaki tank, tail and saddlebags, and you have a recipe for long-distance exploration, beckoning KLR650 owners to enjoy on- and off-road adventures.
Authentic Kawasaki Accessories are available through Kawasaki dealers.

Heavy snow in the northeastern United States is prompting airlines to delay or cancel thousands of flights nationwide, causing airline passengers to find themselves stranded in airports like Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International.
According to FlightAware.com, more than 3,000 flights were canceled Tuesday nationwide, and about 1,500 flights were canceled Wednesday.
Sue Spring is trying to get from Florida to Ohio. Her plane was an hour late because of a delay getting out of New York Tuesday, so she missed her connecting flight in Atlanta. She spent the night in the atrium of Atlanta's airport.
"It's hard to sleep in these chairs and get comfortable," Spring said. "The first thing I'm going to do when I get home is get in bed."
Jeff Heidlebaugh and his wife Marie are trying to get to Pennsylvania after visiting their son in Germany.
Their connecting flight was canceled, so they, too, spent the night in the airport.
"It's a little noisy," she said as an airport worker came with a floor-buffing machine.
"We just feel sleepy, tired," said Jeff Heidlebaugh. "We just want to get to our destination, just want to get the trip ended. It's been a good trip up until now."

Outdoor Decorating
Why outdoor decorative accents? Picture this: Your backyard, patio or front porch is just the way you like it. You've got the right lighting, the right furniture, perhaps even a small pond, fountain or garden. But something's still missing. That unique touch that makes your home stand out from all the others in your neighborhood and lets you know you've created something that's truly your own. Outdoor decorative accents could be the answer. Perhaps you feel that you've spent enough on your home and there's no more room in the budget. Before you make that decision, you ought to check out all the great outdoor decorative accents that Sam's Club has to offer. You'll probably be quite surprised at how affordable they are. Especially when you see how they look on your property. Decorative accents may even increase the value of your home, paying for themselves many times over.
What kind of decorative accents are right for your home? Many people choose a windmill. You can find windmills in a variety of colors and styles, and a windmill is a familiar but stylish touch that anyone can enjoy. Another option for the front of your home is the guardian entryway lions. You've seen them in front of respected municipal buildings; why not get them to add to the ambiance of your home? Other options include lampposts, wall clocks, stepping stones and more.
Envision which accents will complete your home, then go to Sam's Club and find just what you're looking for at just what you're prepared to pay.

A Patch blog from Alameda, CA, called "Please Don't Help My Kids" has struck a nerve with readers across the country.
Posted in September, the blog has taken off over the past couple of weeks as it has found a second life through social media sharing. The blog has 124,000 Facebook recommendations and 833 people have tweeted the blog.
The blog is an open letter to other parents at the playground. The blogger Kate Bassford Baker's basic request is for parents to not help her daughters on the slide. She wrote that she wants her daughters to do things and learn things on their own.
Learning to walk up the slide's ladder is the first step to learning new things and overcoming obstacles, she wrote.
"Because, as they grow up, the ladders will only get taller, and scarier, and much more difficult to climb. And I don't know about you, but I'd rather help them learn the skills they'll need to navigate them now, while a misstep means a bumped head or scraped knee that can be healed with a kiss, while the most difficult of hills can be conquered by chanting, 'I think I can, I think I can,' and while those 15 whole feet between us still feels, to them, like I'm much too far away," she wrote.
Read "Please Don't Help My Kids" by clicking on this sentence.
What do you think? Do you agree with the concept that children should do these things on their own or do you think it's unwise to allow children that freedom?

100 Calorie Snacks?
I like the idea of 100 calorie snacks and a snack of mine (actually a meal because I am freaken SICK again) comes in under 100 calories. I used the dry fried lite tofu from my previous post and marinated it in 1 T of Newman's Own Sesame Ginger Dressing along with the mushrooms and 2 c of spinach. I topped the snack with 1/2 t black sesame seeds and siracha. For a total of 96 calories, 4 g fat, 9 g protein and 3 g fiber it is a nutritional powerhouse and will keep your blood sugar nice and stable so you can work out after work if you so desire.
Take that Nabisco!
I have a horrible sore throat, so fruit is what I've been craving... pear and mango have been what I've been eating... Hopefully, the vitamins and minerals in the fruits and veggies I've been eating will make me better...
Of course, both a pear and mango are also a delicious way to get a good snack in for 100 calories.
Don't be seduced by the marketing of corrupt companies.
23 comments:
Your 100 calorie snack looks SO much better. Yeah, it is laughable that anyone would think those snacks would tide someone over for more than a minute...ReplyDelete
I hope you feel better soon! I hate being sick. Some of your soup might do the trick?
It's sad what some companies pass off as "food", isn't it? That tofu in your pic is making me hungry... oy...ReplyDelete
It's amazing what people fall for isn't it? They think "ooh 100 calories, this must be good!", but I checked the labels and they're filled with sugar, trans fats and salts. And honestly, they're just portions of junk food, that don't satisfy anyone's cravings and create environmental waste.ReplyDelete
If people would just pick up a fruit or some veggies, they wouldn't have to worry about it being more than 100 calories anyway. *sigh*
that's pretty much the most enticing 100 calorie snack I've ever seen! Those junk-food packs are so ludricous, definitely - I always pass them in the store and wonder, well, first off who would pay a dollar for a 1/3 of a regular sized treat, and then why on earth anyone would eat 2 bites of chocolate instead of a whole fresh piece of fruit? madness!ReplyDelete
I like your blog! I mentally add calories, too... I shouldn't but I do...
Sorry to hear you are still not feeling well. When I am sick, I like to drink EmergenC. It seems like, it helps me get better faster.ReplyDelete
You are so right about the 100 calorie snack packs. Your meal looks and I'm sure tastes way better.
Sending healing vibes your way.
FABULOUS! I love your version of the 100 calorie snack! I'm going to have to try this :-) I'm sorry to hear you've been sick, though... Feel better soon!ReplyDelete
You're so right; it's infuriating how companies prey on people w/ these faux healthy snacks. I'm constantly trying to get my friends and family to eat healthier foods and to fuel, rather than simply fill, their bodies. Congrats on making such a great 100 calorie snack that's healthy (and looks delicious!). Feel better soon. :)ReplyDelete
I love your snack idea/recipe Melody. I've got to give it a try soon. Yum!ReplyDelete
What a bummer to be sick. I hope you feel better soon.
Happy Valentines Day!
Hope you have started feeling better Melody!!ReplyDelete
Your snack looks delicious... so much more nutritious too!
Haha, those snack packs always drove me nuts too! For 100 calories, you can have 1 cookie stuffed with chemicals or a big plateful of healthy veggies and whole foods. Easy choice!ReplyDelete
THANK YOU for writing this! I get so infuriated at the 100-calorie packs, and the way people carry them around like some sort of insurance against hunger- not only are they unhealthy and pumped full of crap, but there is no way they would fill me up for even a minute. I'd choose your food any day!ReplyDelete
It seems every magazine I pick up has a page filled with 100 calorie snacks. Most of the time you'd be better off with a 200 calorie snack that's healthier for you.ReplyDelete
ugh, those infamous 100-calorie snack packs are so incredibly unhealthy and unnatural, I laugh every time I see them advertised and/or people eating them. blech! your food is INFINITELY better-looking, and I'm sure better-tasting (I wish I COULD taste it, haha)!!ReplyDelete
Feel better, Mel!! Hang in there and get well soon!!
Hi - I hope your throat is feeling better. Your 100 calorie snack is definitely real food (not processed) and so much better than the packaged stuff. I've been enjoying seeing what you've been eating lately because, although you're dieting, your meals look anything but deprived. Congrats on your weight loss -- that's terrific!ReplyDelete
I'm hoping things go back to normal in my house soon so I can get back to cooking the way I like (at least for breakfast/lunches).
Have you heard anything on your job?
hope you feel better too!ReplyDelete

The Tumi Difference
Add-a-bag system
Quickly and easily add another travel piece or business case using our patented Add-A-Bag hook with secure fastened tab closure that holds in excess of 200 pounds. Also, many Tumi business cases and totes feature a back sleeve that slips over extended luggage handles allowing you to stack and carry heavier bags on your wheeled luggage. Used together, these features allow travelers to effortlessly carry two or three items at the same time with one hand.
Easy Glide Wheels
Our state-of-the-art in-line wheels incorporate sealed steel ball bearings and are mounted on solid steel axles in custom-designed, shock-absorbing bushings. They roll smoothly and quietly for hundreds of miles.
Omega Closure System®
Tumi's patented closure system significantly reduces the risk of damage to the zipper. The Omega zipper puller is designed to break away from the bag if it becomes caught. The puller, rather than the entire zipper, is then quickly and easily replaced.
Rib-Tech Padded Laptop Section
Weve added an extra measure of security and protection for your laptop with our exclusive Rib-Tech padding, made from high-compression, energy-absorbing molded foam, in the computer section of this case.
Tumi Tracer®
The Tumi Tracer® is an exclusive, complimentary program that helps reunite Tumi customers with their lost or stolen items. The core of the program is a unique 20-digit individual product number printed on a special metal plate that is permanently affixed to Tumi products. That number, along with the owners contact information, is entered into our Tracer database when a bag is registered with us, and used to help aid in the recovery of lost or stolen items that are reported to us.
Aircraft Grade Aluminum Extension Handle
The tubing of our telescoping handles is made from aircraft-grade aluminum, making them both lightweight and extremely sturdy.
