How to keep summer foods fresh and safe
Hi Folks,
At my house the discussion for what we will serve for our 4th of July meal has been settled, and I won (for a change). Pork barbeque. And don’t get mad at me but I’m going to buy it at one of the great barbeque places here in Greenville. I can already taste it, yum, yum. Of course all the trimmings are what will make it a great meal.

4th of July and Burger season is back — don’t forget the basics
Hi Folks,
Are you making plans for celebrating Independence Day this Saturday? I hope your plans include a big American flag, proudly displayed in a prominent place on your home.
And what would the 4th of July be without a cookout. I understand that the most popular food for a cookout is burgers. Yea! for burgers, I love them.

Compare Hospitals
Hi Folks,
I just ran across a neat little web site that you might be interested in: www.hospitalcompare.hhs.gov. Just log on and enter the name(s) of your local hospital(s) (or any hospital in the USA) and get a comparison of your hospital with any other hospital you choose.
Hospital Compare is sponsored by Medicare and provides “information on how well hospitals care for patients with certain medical conditions or surgical procedures, and results from a survey of patients about the quality of care they received during a recent hospital stay”.
