Cindy, give your mother a big hug from me, please. My mother is gone and I do miss her. Always need to get a good hug in for someone else's mom, though. We just got home from our vacation late this afternoon. I did shop for my partner while we were gone, but haven't been down to the sewing room to unpack the goodies I bought. Will do that first thing tomorrow and mail on my way to grocery - so I can refill the larder.
