Hope my exchangee got her package and it's not sitting at the wrong door or something

I'm sure she did, Rose Mary. I have sent her a PM and e-mail. Hopefully she will check in with us soon.

And hopefully we will hear of some more arrivals today

Everything alright with you two?

Yes, I was having trouble opening the disk with her family's cookbook.

But I am all set now - can't wait to try some of them!!

 

[kikakeko]

We have got it undercontrol now.

I forgot that most new computers don't have a floppy drive.

Ahhh...a disk. Glad it is working for you
(I was wondering why it was hard to open the book )

 

[snowwhitesmom]

Nothing here yet - no fish, either! I went fishing all morning and got skunked!

I got mine today from Sherry, from Arkansas. It was an Arkansas state cookbook. It came from Amazon. My wife saw the box and she gave me dirty look! "I thought I asked you to stop buying so much from Amazon".

I looked at her and said " Don't look at me. I didn't buy anything!"...

And, what made this REALLY cool, is that we are looking at buying a small piece of property --- like a one half acre homesite --- near Holiday Island or Eureka Springs Arkansas.....

Coincidence, or something else.....?

My cookbook has been ordered for my recipient but I guess it hasn't arrived yet. So, I mailed my recipient some goodies today to help the time pass until the cookbook arrives. Hope she likes them.

You're welcome Papa Deuce. Arkansas is a beautiful state. You can't go wrong with that area or around Hot Springs (where I hope to have a lakeside vacation home someday!)

Just thought I would check in to say that my mailbox was empty yesterday except for some bills and sales flyers. Nothing on my front porch either except that I have a sparrow that buildt a nest in my door wreath and has laid three eggs. So cool!!!!

 

[VanniGirl]

 

[Meriweather]

Wow...a nest on your door.....hope when the babies hatch, they stay safe.

We have one missing person If I don't hear from her by Tuesday an elf package will go out

[snowwhitesmom]

Just wanted to say Good Morning!

 

[Meriweather]

Welcome back, Wendy.
Hope you enjoy all the goodies.
I thought that cookbook was very interesting.
The author traveled around the state collecting recipes and wrote a little something about each place.
Happy cooking.....and it is always nice to come home, isn't it?

Good morning, Michelle
