Still to much calories. Just add them up. Cheese is horrendous in calories. Never mind the bacon.

Never liked the keyboard on a phone. I never text or SMS as we call it. Like reading books on my phone. The Kobo app is great. I read my emails but never answer them on the phone. My phone is not an extension of my arm.

Ah, Plutella xylostella. Which selects various Crucifers as larval foodplants, but only those that produce glucosinolates (mustard oil precursors). One effective method of control is to plant Wintercress, which not only contains glucosinolates, but also produces saponins, which kill the larvae. There are also several host-specific ichneumon wasps that attack and kill the larvae.
