All of that will surely not make you miss the old 'hood.' I am a serial killer of house plants and homemade meals, but completely tame in the company of interesting men. I really had no idea that I had helped you on the road to blogging - I have certainly been the winner here. I will stop here for as long as you post, which you well know.

Seems her future father-in-law thought women were only interested in discussing chintz curtains. Granted, she's absorbed and serious about design but there's a lot more going on in that noggin' of hers.... but I'm not telling you anything you hadn't already discovered for yourself. I feel certain her father-in-law learned to appreciate her intellect and quick wit as well.Gail, in northern Californianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861447409543225070.post-46265897794310916072011-08-22T17:22:13.606-05:002011-08-22T17:22:13.606-05:00Congrats on the 4th year.

I had no idea who Toad was but if SHE missed you, then I'd best go find this Toad [who happened to be temporarily offline, later to return]. And what a find you were, and are! <br /><br />I congratulate you both on finding each other, we are so much the richer for your willingness to give so freely of yourselves, and so often, thank YOU for the gifts of both your marvelous blogs.<br /><br />-FloAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861447409543225070.post-54076138399661053172011-08-22T06:47:46.335-05:002011-08-22T06:47:46.335-05:00Congrats on 4 years Mr Toad.
