Earth laughs in flowers... Ralph Waldo Emerson


A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.

Happy New Year! I had to laugh at your post ~ we northerners were given some black eyed peas last evening to take home and eat today and we aren't even sure how we are supposed to eat them?!! Definitely not something we grew up with.
It's nice to see you post today ~ looking forward to more in the New Year.

Oh hi there girl! So glad you came by, I was wondering where you were off to, although I've been sort of a bad blogger and not keeping up with everyone because of an insane crazy work load these past couple months. But I am so glad you're still out and about in Blogland:)
Hugs,
Terry

Oh Cathy!!! Yippee Skippee! I have wanted to email you so many times but didn't want to be pesky if you were just needing a break from everything. How are you? I am so thrilled to see this pop up and cannot wait to reconnect and hear what you have been up to.
Blessings to you and Happy New Year!
Vanessa
