30. Peggy, It is really my joke.

I have been living with type 2 diabetes for 36 years. Not eating sweets is the one place I have very good will power. My late wife loved sweets and as I loved her, I would look of goodies for her.

I really enjoy your pictures especially the still lifes in the markets. Seeing them again after your recent surgery makes me happy that you are able to do what you had been. I hope that made some kind of sense.
