Same thoughts I had, your story just grabbed me to read further. Glad you found your problem

LOVED this saga! Write it up and send it to a quilting magazine. How about to Mark Lipinski's 365 Christmas or one of his others. I think this story is right down his alley!

BTW I would have done one thing differently. I would have reached for the bottle of Wild Turkey since I am a bourbon girl. LOL

Never had homemade Bailey's but recently made a new friend and she makes it. She's gonna make us some.

I really enjoyed your story! If you ever decide to write a book, I wanna read it. Do you have a blog?
