My answer: you should have my friend Gloria who marched me to her favorite store for "one of a kind" gorgeous silk tunic tops and I found the perfect thing. Of course this was in Sarasota, Florida. California appears not to have a shop like that!Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17478393430722574447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-90437099370886827022018-04-02T10:33:35.688-04:002018-04-02T10:33:35.688-04:00Debs, you can protect them by covering them with s...Debs, you can protect them by covering them with sheets.

I liked it a lot, though it's still not my favorite in the series. It's in the low 40s, windy, what I can only describe as Brisk, with rain in the forecast this afternoon. Good day to stay indoors and work on a jigsaw puzzle.<br /><br />We've had all the Spring signs, Daffodils are finishing up, some of the perennials showing signs of life, lots of birds including Robins, Stellars Jay and Varied Thrushes, as well as all the little guys. Happy Holiday to you all, and a wonderful Spring!

No snow yet--and thanks for the sunshine, Coralee--I really needed that today--half my family has been smacked upside the head by a late round of flu and I can feel it reaching for me.... <br /><br />Also, sincere thanks to all the Reds--you all are inspiring for your monumental creativity and work ethic--and you have provided me with hours and hours of reading pleasure and anticipation as I eagerly await whatever you give us next!

Mallards and Canadian geese. They've have been gone for two are three years now. I don't know.

None of us who've read the book is surprised at your win, but I'm thrilled your wonderful writing is recognized in such a lovely way. <br /><br />Happy everything, to all. And Hank, I've had spiders on me for days, because we've been cleaning out our basement. Yuck. So glad that's done. <br /><br />Spring has sprung in Cincinnati, with so many flowers and flowering trees starting to bloom. The daffodils are particularly gorgeous right now. <br /><br />Can you believe I've never read Elizabeth George?
