ReplyDeleteGlad things are good with you and number 2.
So in love with Babette! How I wish I could crochet.
ReplyDeleteAnd very glad the flowers are working out despite the mixed-up order. Rachel (who provides me with the wonderful berries) apparently had problems with her SR veg order this year, too...
