  15. I've just been reading your posts, Andree. You seem to be having a lovely time...shame you had to battle the rudeness and intolerance to reach your destination.

    Those lava cakes look rather yummy...I do enjoy seeing a guy cook. Good for you, Aaron.

  23. Your first photo hunt I visit and was wondering what people was doing for this week theme.
    I guess there over 90% of items could be made into a planter and I sure would love to have that carousel horse in my yard.

    I was going to say that that would not be all that practical around here.

  35. That's a beautiful carousel horse. It would be a shame to throw it away after it has outlived its purpose. Maybe that's why they converted it to something useful.

  39. Thank you for stopping by my blog. I didn't recognize you under your real name. hehe!

    I like your choice for the photo hunt. I wouldn't mind having that in my back yard! :-)

    I think you tagged me for a meme awhile back?? Sorry I didn't get a chance to do it, that was about the time my daughter started having a lot of difficulties which landed her in the PICU for about a week. If you could remind me what the meme was, I'll be happy to do it now!
