• Are you my Mother? Some Sweetness.

  Oh, there is so much to talk about. I try so hard to make these posts short and sweet enough to be fun to write and entertaining to read. I wish I could tell you everything that makes my eyebrows raise, everything that makes me laugh. Everything that catches my eye.  But I would not…
