Davies – Thank you for telling the sweet story about your mother and the blankets she knitted.<br /><br />Jenny Woolf – Embroidering the Union Jack in different colors? Here I don’t think they would embroider the US flag in other colors than the red white and blue – people take the flag very seriously. This is not saying that the UK do not take their flag seriously, it’s just that here they don’t have a sense of humour about it.<br /><br />CarzyCris – I am not a Lion – I am a Dragon and an Aries (my birthday is 26 March.)<br /><br />Fennie – I answered your comment on your blog about the Mormon Church – yes they do practice baptism for the dead.

Inspired by you, I think it’s time for me to resume again for my grandchild. What amazes me about you is that you’re so talented in various creative works and looks ready to start doing something ( like easily fly to foreign countries). My favorite is the car seat blanket with a poetry book on it among all the lovely blankets. Keep up the good work, and keep me stimulated.<br /><br />Yokostardusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10684501661629146087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-56905173339008363662012-02-04T21:24:57.107-05:002012-02-04T21:24:57.107-05:00You're multi-talented!

I took a trip this past week and found an interesting rendition of a dragon... a 'life-size' dragon made of chocolate by Jean Philippe Patisserie. Have posted the photo just today. And lastly, regarding one of the two books you received at the bottom of your post: Novel Destinations. I've been following its author's blog, also the same name.

I read it and it brought back so many memories. I loved traditional jazz too and wrote a post about it somewhere. I also loved modern jazz and many of the greats who played and lived in Paris came to Stockholm. I do recognize some of the clubs. I will come back and read the post again and let you know. I don't have time this morning.I will follow your blog. Isn't blogger fun? I can't believe this and I'm off to write a conclusion to my story of Traveling in Blogger Land.

Early in our marriage she encouraged me and I bought a beautiful book of gorgeous needlework and tried to make flame stitch covers for our dining room chairs. Nope. No more talent than I had as a child doing embroidery. <br /><br />Enjoy your reading. We try to save our afternoons for reading. For me, that's very relaxing.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-46387780769089368502012-02-03T00:41:29.022-05:002012-02-03T00:41:29.022-05:00Belle journée...

Your thoughtfulness and kindness are tremendous. And then there are all the connections, some intended, and some you did not know.<br /><br />1) The yarn is from Turkey; we lived in Turkey, and you are partly Armenian. 2) Blue and brown are my favorite colors together. 3) You placed literary books (yes, poetry!) on the blankets. When James's mommy first felt him kick inside, she had just stopped reading Jane Austen's <i>Persuasian</i> aloud before bed. He kicked as if to say, "don't stop reading, mommy." Then the first time Don and I felt him kick, we were watching "Miss Potter" with his mommy. We felt that he must be a destined to be a literary boy.<br /><br />Thank you again for these joyous connections and gifts! They are even more special since I have not been able to finish the quilt I have begun for him (half done), due to my problematic hands.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-5537669014635679542012-02-02T01:26:37.381-05:002012-02-02T01:26:37.381-05:00You have been very busy creating some wonderful gi...You have been very busy creating some wonderful gifts!
