So, I just wanted to share two fun surprises I have received in the past week or so. First off…daffodils! It was my turn to host homeschool group yesterday, and my friend Aimee and her daughter Carol arrived with a bunch of daffodils. They were all closed up, but overnight opened up so beautifully and brought a bit of spring into the house. (It’s been sunny here but still chilly – highs in the upper 40’s/lower 50’s)
The other surprise came in the mail from a blog reader! She found my blog through another one and then put it together that I was the author of Bagels, Buddy, and Me. She wrote to say that she had loaned her copy out often and then finally had never gotten it back. I wrote and offered her another complimentary copy, but she insisted on a barter. I’m pretty sure I got the better end of the deal in a jar of fresh “homemade” honey from her own honey bees! (She also sent this cute kitty note card – which Kayla was delighted by.) Shirley has a great blog featuring gluten free recipes and information on Celiac and gluten intolerance which you should stop by and check out!

Wow, Melanie!! I was just scrolling through trying to find your previous post with that Peter Green quote to share at my presentation at the Women’s Forum tomorrow and saw this one. I don’t know how I missed it before, but I am tickled pink. Thanks so much for the mention (back at you, dear). The card looks adorable against that backdrop of daffodils. Just lovely. Daffodils are such a day brightener, aren’t they? I am really glad your daughter enjoyed the card so much.
I am thankful you are enjoying the honey, but I really don’t think it stacks up against your wonderful book! As I expected, the folks who had not seen it before just loved it at our meeting Tuesday night. 🙂 They were amazed at your talent and terrific way of sharing the info. Hopefully, you’ll get some more orders.
Thanks so much … for eveything!
