About Me

Here we are, where else would we be?

I like plants. Currently I"m working toward becoming a Certified Professional Horticulturist.

"You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think." ~Dorothy Parker

(If you don't get the joke, say it out loud in English, slowly.)

I like embroidery. I like to bead embroidery to make it sparkle.

I like to sit in the sun or shade and just be.

I enjoy the company of open minded people.

I enjoy exchanging pleasantries.

I like to breath deeply and smell the beauty of the world.

I like to read. Please find yourself anything written by Beverly Nichols. You won't regret the time you spend with him.

Comment: Words can not express my excitement over the box you sent to me. OMG! You were so thoughtful to make the items very personal. As for the towel, no that will not be used. I may frame it and hang it up in my office! The book is great, I want to go thru it before I think about tearing it up, lol. My deepest thanks!

Comment: Karlyn, I opened the packages and was thrilled with what you picked out!! Every time I use my gnome cookie cutter or the vintage pyrex salt and pepper set I will think of you! You may find some gnome cookies showing up on your door step sometime soon... Maybe biting the heads off the gnomes will make you feel better about them. Thank you so much!!! [[hugs and big slobbery kisses]]
