This little boekie grins from page to page. and the choco glam, Plaisir wrap, can't help but see a mini muffin. It is overcast here today and this gem brings in the sunshine. Thanks you Katerina!

Thank you for these birthday wishes just full of French.  Very kind indeed.

Subtitled as "The Bow Tie Miracle" which has something to do with American baseball, but I'm not sure what.  I only got to second base when I lived in America, but I did have a few double plays.  Anyway, this card is a Home Run with bases loaded.  Thank you very much Alicia.  PS I'm a great fan of the Iowa Red Socks.…

Yes, I put it in my CD player and it started playing the Happy birthday tune, then suddenly the CD started smoking, flames started coming from under the cover and I quickly threw the whole thing in the bath tub where the tune changed to "Smoke on the Water".  Thank you very much Katerina, it was very thoughtful of you to remember.  SO KATERINA's BIRTHDAY is the 7th of February I see?…

Another one of Cathérine's self portraits!   Why don’t I do work like this?  Ah yes, I remember, it takes talent.  A wonderful piece and Cathérine also seems to be a cinema buff as well.

This time Cathérine you hit it right on the head.  A lovely piece and…

A photo entitled My Blue Finger from Heike Sackmann, and that's no Ships of fools!  Thank you very much Heike.

I want to have words that describe how amazingly perfect and perfectly me this mail art from David is…but I don’t have the words that will do it justice. Here is what I can say…. This absolutely perfect piece of mail art features…my love, the vintage couch! Wait… there is more….with three hilarious illustrated couch rides! But wait….there’s more! Vintage newspaper article…Chicago Daily News re: a WGN radio commentator plans to retire at 35 in Arizona! Why is this so perfectly me??? I grew up…

'Tis a beauty , even though it got a bit chewed up by the postal machine...
