Continue to share with us.

I will be offline from Saturday until late Tuesday afternoon but I will have a great story about chin hairs to make you all laugh when I get back.

My grandmother used to make that cake too and maybe you should write about it..:)

I keep repeating myself that I found this place by sheer accident.. and feel like its home. I feel so welcomed and thank you and plan to make a quilt when I get back. I assure you it will probably make you all giggle hahaha:)
