Oh my, I'm sorry you had such a terrible experience on your shopping day! Haggling, not finding what you want, and eating bad food all in one outing... terrible. I hope your next shopping experience is

I just found Hive Thrifted. How fun! Your write-up is terrific. We both tracked the packet's progress from California to the UK, sharing pictures like we had just sent our first-born out on a gap year

I know, right? Even though it is made to be eaten, it is really hard to cut into a work of art! We have made these at home before, so that made it a little easier. I know I can create another one when

My gosh, @lizelle, so it's not just me then! Why do they torment us so with those tests? Oh, the head aches! The malaise! The sense that all is not right with the world or that the sun failed to come up.

Ha ha — cow eyes!! What a fun trip around the farm. I had never heard of a hoof pick. Learn something new every day! I just finished my post. I have no brain left for curating others tonight but will be

This is such a delightful story, @gracielaacevedo! I am a fan of cats, but that Casimira is a naughty and mean one. I was definitely worried for poor Glecka. Thank goodness she can relinquish her tail

Oh, look how you made that beauty shine! Did you have carpal tunnel syndrome at the end?? Good for you for taking on the project and not just giving up on the old thing. Freshly polished silver is really

Ha ha. Yes, probably, but it got your attention, didn't it?? 😀

Oh I love a good tea shop. And there are some wonderful places to go for high tea. I could have written multiple posts on that topic alone, if I had time to round up my photos from over the years. I had

A sugar fast is so smart. That in itself is a good detox and weight loss plan. Oh I hope you find your grandmother's teacup collection, @apanamamama. If not, you could collect a few in her honor. I have

I find that it is a truly amazing feeling when I return to creative writing after a break! Welcome back, my friend!

@grindan, this poetry gave me that feeling you get when you stand somewhere with nature all around and open your arms wide and look and slowly twirl in circles. It is all there, surrounding you. Have you

Thank you for sharing your writing gift with us, @universoperdido!

Oy! So glad you mentioned it, @samsmith1971. It is fixed. All I can say is these posts are a heavy lift, and often turn into a late night effort, when eyes are crossed and sleep beckons! Your story is

It's so amazing how aromas can bring back memories, just as if the people they conjure up were truly there, right back by our side where they belong. For me it is the aroma of hot berries. Berries in the
