Hi Sean,


 RH> We've been going with Google Fi for the past about 5 years; they work
 RH> well for us after having issues with all the major carriers.

 SD> I've been on a T-Mobile prepaid plan--$15 a month for unlimited text
 SD> and calls with 4GB data--for several years now but the phone I have is
 SD> junk (a Motorola Mobility phone, aka Chinaphone).  I'd love to get

We tried all the major carriers at one time or another and had problems
with them. T-Mobile was great in HI and GA but when we moved up here, it
wasn't as good. Steve then switched to AT&T but we found that calls
didn't always go thru. He'd walk to/from seminary and usually call me on
his way home to see if he needed to stop anywhere. Various times he'd
get home and I'd ask "why didn't you call, I needed you to stop at X?".
He said that he did call--it rang on his phone but not mine. Long story
short, we've been happy with Google Fi.


 SD> another phone but I have to pay full price and those phones are NOT
 SD> cheap.  I ca buy a new ham radio for the price of a new phone and you
 SD> know which one I'd rather have.

I know, same as I'd like to have a treadle sewing machine and a long arm
quilting machine. But, as long as we're here, I'll not get either, just
stick with the 6 sewing machines, serger and embroidery machine that I
have.

 SD>   1 1/2 c  Sliced green beans

 SD>      14 c  Tomato paste
 SD>       2 cl Garlic, crushed
 SD>       2 tb Chopped fresh basil or
 SD>            - 1 1/2 tsp dried basil
 SD>       6 tb Grated parmesan cheese

AKA Italian vegetable soup? I might throw in some beef soup bones or
shredded chicken to give it some more protein. It has some, but not all
of the ingredients I use to make pasta fagoile--much better than the
Olive Garden version if you've ever had that.
