Jmoore: Thanks for your kind words. I did have a backup iron, but in a fit of "decluttering" not too long ago, I got rid of it. Now I'm sorry. Guess there is a reason behind keeping a few things, just in case. I made it to Target and bought a basic iron on sale to use until I feel the need for a special kind and have time to do the research. This one will do for now.
Ctyankee: I had to chuckle sympathetically--been there, done that--only too often !!
Zozee: brunch sounds yummy! Nice husband to cook. I'll bring the Fuzzy Navels....(peach schnapps and OJ). It's like spring around here today, but tomorrow it may snow and sleet!
