LOL As stated already --this has happened to everyone at some time, or at least almost everyone. And at least you discovered it in the same month. Hey maybe it is coming to me. It would be poetic justice I guess if it were, as I can't stop laughing at the humanity of it!;) ;)
Hope the rest of your weekend goes better.

I was wondering if it was ok to send some shamrock and some purple gold to go with it so a combo mardi gras st. pats? what do you guys think would you mind receiving that? I have some really pretty yellow fabric with shamrocks on it that i wanted to share. I really like this fabric and I do not like yellow fabric. Its worth sharing :) but then there is this pretty purple in my stash that says share me share me! and its not st. pats. argh!

Ok do you know why there pigs on Irish St. patricks day items? (such as vintage post cards) its because of the famine that hit Ireland. If you had a pig you were very lucky because you had food. Just thought I would toss that out to you. I couldnt figure out why there was always this silly pig on the cards I collected. like ok we know about gold and rainbows and lephrechauns but a pig? really? lol so now I have lucky pigs that go out with my St. Pat decor.

I sure hope it's ok Brat! because that's exactly the route I am going:)
thanks for the pork tidbit. I have never noticed the pigs before, but I'm sure I will now.

Correct...and the FQ's don't have to compliment each other, or they can if you want...
