Dear God,I happened to stumble upon the website:
www.goddirect.org/life/writings/june/godlettr.htm, and gota kick out of some of the questions the kids asked you. Ithought maybe the other readers might get a short laughalso. Thanks in advance for posting it. Hey everybody, I havereally enjoy reading this column. So, don’t stop emailing:[email protected] it has helped me.
Madelyn• Dear God: My turtle died. We buried her in our yard. Is she
there with your now? If so, she really likes lettuce.• Dear God: Did you invent skateboards? Do you have them
up in Heaven too? I love mine a lot and can do lots of tricksalready. Do you like watching me?
• Dear God: I’m sorry I forgot the words to your songs yes-terday in Sunday School. I don’t sing that good anyway sosometimes I just hum along. Is that okay with you?
• Dear God: Molly got new pink shoes, and I want them. Isthat bad? I won’t steal them or anything, but would you sendme some too?
• Dear God: I hate it when Daddy drinks his beer. He smellsawful. Then he sleeps. He gets mean and yells at me a lot. Didyou make up beer? Why?
• Dear God: Did baby Jesus cry all the time? My new broth-er does, and I don’t like it. Mommy says all babies do, and Idid when I was little. I’m six now. I don’t think baby Jesusever cried. He’s your son, so you must know the answer. Wehave a bet on it, so please write back.
• Dear God: Why do old people smell funny?• Dear God: My dog, Bowser is getting really old now. He
gets up slowly and doesn’t keep up with me anymore whenwe run. Mommy says he’s going to die one day. Could youjust make him a puppy again instead?
• Dear God: In Sunday School we learned that You areeverywhere. How big are You? As big as Shaq? He plays bas-ketball and is the biggest I’ve ever seen.
• Dear God: Do you listen to my prayers every night? Do youreally know when I only pretend to brush my teeth? Don’t tellMommy, okay?

Hardening off seedlings before plantingoutside, checking for tent caterpillars, andreseeding lawns are some of the gardeningtips for this month.
Be sure to harden off indoor-grownseedlings before setting them into the gar-den. Acclimate plants to outdoor conditionsover the course of at least a week, andpreferably two, by gradually increasing theamount of time you leave them outdoors.This includes both exposure to cooler tem-peratures and sunlight. Put them in theshade for a few days to adjust to thebrighter sun outdoors. Plunging them di-rectly from indoors into the full sun oftencauses sunburn — a rapid bleaching anddying of foliage.
If you’ve taken advantage of this earlyspring by planting your container gardensalready, be sure to protect them from aspring frost by moving them indoors onchilly nights or covering them with a float-ing row cover.
If you haven’t planted containers yet,consider adding a water absorbing product(sold as this in garden stores) to the soilfirst. You only need a little (follow label di-rections), with the result being you’ll needto water less often as plants grow. Thiskind of addition is especially useful inhanging baskets that tend to dry outquickly.
Check apple, cherry, and other fruit treesfor nests of tent caterpillars. Blast low-ly-
ing nests with water to destroy them, orknock them to the ground and destroythem. A spray of Bt will kill emerging cater-pillars but is not toxic to beneficial insects,birds, or humans.
If you want to move some spring-bloom-ing bulbs to another spot, wait until the fo-liage has turned yellow, then carefully digthem up and let them dry in a shady spotfor a few days. Store the bulbs in a cool,dry place for the summer until it’s time toplant them in fall. Or you can replant themthen and allow the foliage to continue todie back. This is needed for nutrients to gofrom the leaves back into the bulbs for thecoming season. Don’t have a place to plantthem yet? Then you can “heel” them in,planting in a shallow trench, or pot themfor holding.
When you transplant annual flowers andveggies, don’t try to loosen the root balls.With such a small root mass, a plant iseasily set back if many roots are damaged.With only a summer in which to grow,these plants need to hit the ground run-ning with no delays.
Before reseeding bare spots in the lawn,spread 1 to 2 inches of compost over theareas and firm it down. Then sow grassseed. Sprinkle a thin layer of compost ontop of the seed, cover with straw and keepit moist. If you have pets, encircle the spotswith stakes and tie string around them todeter pets.
Reduce the weeds in walkways in yourgarden by covering the soil with some type
of mulch. Some people like to use carpetscraps placed upside-down. Several sheetsof moistened newspaper topped with hay orstraw works very well, especially if youmove your planting areas around a bit fromyear to year. Try to avoid tilling to removeweeds because the process brings up weedseeds from deeper in the soil and exposesthem to the light they need to grow.
Other tips for this month include fencingpest animals out of gardens, staking toma-toes while young, and keeping lawnsmowed regularly yet not too low (3 incheshigh is often good).

Game“Please turn off all
electronic devices,” an-nounces the flight at-tendant as the door islocked shut on the air-craft taking you andyour kids to your desti-
nation. No longer teth-ered to gadgets andgizmos, you are offi-cially an unpluggedfamily. Now it’s timefor real, live entertain-ment. Take advantageof the incredible viewthrough the frame ofyour seat window as
your plane banks overyour departure city. Nomatter how manytimes you’ve flown, it’salways a new adven-ture to catch the scenebelow. Your kids maysqueal, “Where’s ourhouse? Is that the Mis-sissippi River? Wow,
look at all the cars onthe freeway duringrush hour!” Not evenDisney makes a ridelike this.
When you soar abovethe clouds, pull outthis handheld toy andlet it keep you enter-tained until thepeanuts and pretzelsarrive on your traytable. It’s a maze madeusing simple suppliesincluding a tiny bead,bendable straws forbarriers, and a plasticCD case.
Here’s how to make amaze toy before yourtrip:
1. Open a CD caseand remove the con-tents. Cover the bot-tom of the case with a
sheet of heavy con-struction paper or craftfoam. Cut to size andglue in place.
2. Be maze archi-tects. Set the CD casein front of you. Deter-mine where the“START” entry pointand final goal will benear the bottom andmake dots with amarker as a guide forconstruction, or simplywrite “START” at thetop and “FINISH” atthe bottom of the gameboard. To create a pathfor the game, sketch aroute on the boardwith a pen from“START” to “FINISH.”
3. Arrange differentcut pieces of bendablestraw lengths on the
game board using thedrawing as a guide. In-clude several deadends along the way fora challenging course,and leave ample spacefor the size of the beadyou choose to rollthrough the course.When you are satisfiedwith your design, gluethe straw segments inplace. Let dry.
4. To play, set a beadat “START,” snap thecase closed and let itroll. For an extra chal-lenge, time the con-testants with a stop-watch. When you real-ly get the hang of it, trygoing through themaze without looking,using verbal cues fromsiblings, or Mom andDad.
Extra idea: Con-struct the game with atiny bead that goesthrough the bendablestraws instead ofaround them.

(NAPSA) — If your lawnmower is more than 10 yearsold, it may be time to considera replacement. In the pastdecade, engineering advanceshave produced gas-poweredlawn mowers that run cleaner,start easier and are more fuelefficient than ever before, whileproviding a variety of optionsthat make yard care easier.
Gas-powered mowers re-main the No. 1 choice amonghomeowners, accounting forfour out of every five mowerssold in the United States, ac-
cording to The StevensonCompany, a leading consumerresearch organization. Lawncare experts say they aren’tsurprised because gas mowersgive consumers so many choic-es when it comes to power,price and options — somethingthey don’t get with electric andbattery-powered mowers,which are mainly an option forhomeowners with small yards.
“Gas mowers provide a rangeof power to reliably mow anysize yard and even tall, thickgrass,” explains Rick Zeck-
meister, a vice president atBriggs & Stratton Corporation,which engineers and manufac-tures gas engines for outdoorpower equipment.
Today’s gas-powered lawnmowers, he points out, are alsoin tune with today’s environ-mentally conscious lifestyles.
Other innovations and bene-fits of the newest gas mowersinclude:
• Easy starting, with a singlepull of the starter rope or thepush of a button, like in thenewest cars;
• Improved fuel efficiency andadvanced muffler systems thatproduce a more pleasant soundquality and less vibration;
• Ample engine power tomulch grass clippings whilemowing, turning them into anatural fertilizer for the lawn;
• A variety of options tomake mowing easier, frommowers that automatically ad-just to the walking pace of theperson mowing to digital dash-boards that show the time, fuellevel, maintenance remindersand other information.
Briggs & Stratton providesan online tutorial on how to se-lect a lawn mower atwww.yardsmarts.com.

Berry good!Farmers markets and grocery stores are bursting
with strawberries. Strawberries are always a nutri-tious choice and a wonderful treat. The strawberry gotits name from the common practice of growing berriesunder straw to protect them from winter cold and latespring frosts. A member of the rose family, the straw-berry sometimes gives off a rose-like aroma. Manyspeculate about how the luscious fruit was discov-ered. It is known that the strawberry goes as far backas the Romans and perhaps even the Greeks.
Strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin C, anantioxidant that may reduce the risk of heart diseaseand some types of cancer. It helps protect the skin frombruising, helps heal cuts and keeps gums healthy. Onecup of strawberries provides 3 grams of fiber and only46 calories. Strawberries also have potassium, whichcan help maintain a healthy blood pressure.
When picking or buying packages of strawberries,look for ripe, shiny and brilliantly colored berries with-out any soft or brown patches. Never buy strawberriesthat are green or hard, or that look dry, dull or wrin-kled. When buying berries packed in a basket, checkthe bottom to see if there is a juice stain. This meansthat the strawberries at the bottom are crushed.
Always dispose of any berries that have signs ofmildew or are rotten, as they’ll contaminate the rest.Refrigerating strawberries ruins the flavor, and thestrawberry aroma is easily picked up by other foods inthe refrigerator. Store the berries in a cool place.Strawberries should be lightly rinsed, not washedbefore serving, and eaten as soon as possible.
This Strawberry and Spinach Salad with bluecheese crumbles and a balsamic-based dressing is a“berry” good way to serve strawberries.
Strawberry and spinach salad1 pound baby spinach leaves, triple washed 2 cups strawberries, leaves and stems removed and
sliced1/2 small purple onion, sliced thinly1/2 cup sliced almonds 2 ounces crumbled blue cheeseIn a large bowl, mix all ingredients together.Dressing:1/2 cup stevia or honey1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 1/2 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper1/2 cup olive oilIn a saucepan, heat the stevia or honey,
Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepperand olive oil over medium heat until the stevia orhoney dissolves. Remove mixture from heat. Whendressing is cool, toss with the salad mixture untilwell-combined. Serves 4.

AsparagusAvailability: Almost year-roundPeak season: March, April and MayBuying tips: Look for bright-green, firm, crisp
stalks with compact tips and no trace of brown orrust. Buy evenly sized stalks for uniform cooking.
To store: Asparagus is very perishable. Stand thestalks in 1/2 inch of cold water in a container.Refrigerate up to two days.
To prepare: Hold the base of each asparagus spearin one hand and bend back the stalk; the end willbreak off at the spot where the stalk becomes tootough to eat. Discard the tough stem. Rinse well toremove any sand. Some cooks like to peel aspara-gus, but this is a matter of personal choice. Leaveasparagus whole or cut diagonally into 1- to 2-inchpieces.
To cook: Asparagus can be boiled, steamed, stir-fried, roasted or grilled. Serve hot, room temperatureor cold. To boil, in a 12-inch skillet, heat 1 inch ofwater to boiling over high heat. Add asparagus and1/2 teaspoon salt; heat to boiling. Reduce heat tomedium-high and cook, uncovered, until barely ten-der, 5 to 10 minutes (depending on the thickness ofasparagus); drain. If serving cold, rinse under coldrunning water to stop cooking; drain again.

spring vegetables tastes even better than it looks.2 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-
inch pieces
8 ounces sugar snap peas, strings removed1 tablespoon margarine or butter1 pound radishes, each cut into quartersSalt and pepper4 tablespoons snipped fresh chives1. Heat large covered saucepot of salted water to

Comfort foods made fast and healthy!
(NAPSA) — Eating a more nutritious diet and main-taining a healthy weight may have more to do withwhat you add to your daily routine than what yousubtract. Adding salad dressings and mayonnaise toyour menu could help you achieve your goals.
Many diets cut calories at the expense of flavor, soit’s hard to stay motivated. A smarter way to stick toyour goals may involve including more vegetables inyour diet and using dressings to add a tempting dol-lop of tasty flavor.
For example, salad is delicious and nutritious.Salad eaters tend to have higher intakes of essentialnutrients such as vitamins C and E and folic acid.
Adding a variety of flavorful dressings can add to
the appeal of eating salad every day. The healthy oils found in many salad dressings can
help the body to better absorb key nutrients.Mayonnaise can also be part of a well-balanced diet,
as it’s made with healthy oils and contains omega-3fatty acids.
You can use salad dressings as dips, while mayon-naise adds terrific flavor to deviled eggs, sandwichesand deli salads.
If you must count calories, there are a number ofreduced-fat and light options of salad dressings andmayonnaise available.
