What is Twitter All About?
What's all this about Twitter lately? First I sign up for Facebook. I finally get that down pat. Then everybody's telling me I have to have Twitter. I did, but I have no idea what I'm doing, so please be patient!
The updates on Twitter are called "Tweets". The tweets, or mini-blogs, can only be 140 characters or less, just enough to let your friends and readers know what you're up to.
According to Mia Carter from Suite101, "Twitter members sign up for free on the Twitter website, where it takes just a few minutes to set up a profile and upload a photo. Once that’s complete, Twitter members can start sending out messages (also known as “twittering” or “tweeting”) to friends, family members and co-workers." To learn more about Twitter, check out the rest of this article by Mia. She explains it so much better than I can!
So, look over to the right...right there ---->>>>
There's a block of Twitter Updates in the right hand side bar. At the bottom it says Follow Me On Twitter. Just click the button , follow the instructions, and you can follow me whenever I post. Then, invite your friends to follow you, and they'll invite their friends, and they'll invite their friends and so on and so forth!
Looking forward to Twittering with you!

Hi Donna,
I've come across your webpage while searching for "Nesserole Pie". It was a very high chiffon, custard affair. I have looked every where and only found one reference to it in a blog. "We had the usual pecan pie & family favorite Nesserole pie for Thanksgiving dinner" on another blog site. Even Wickipedia doesen't have a referance to it. In the mid 60's I frequently went to a Jewish Deli in Brookline MA and had this scrumptious desert. They closed down many years ago and I have been lusting for it since. If anyone can help I believe you can. LIZANNE

Hey Donna - I will find you on facebook - I am not a twitter girl but one of the other girls on the site loves it - If I got into that I would never get anything done I already need to enroll in a 12 step facebook program!!
