  • Ah. A certain Puppylove might have checked out each of the decs remembering when they could have been edible.

    It is back up now, and I feel so much better.

    Today is washing/Wrapping.

    Anyone want to be Smallholdingsister's friend on MFP? I lost my gratefulforhelp account when my phone died.
