You and I,
we know our blogs
are rather small fish
on the
InterWebNet.
But think of this:
a restaurant
that served
100 meals
a day
would be a
raging success!
Thanks
for having
a cup
of words
and pictures here.
Don't forget
to 'tip'
your server
with a
comment.
Warmly, cloudia

I like the idea of cleaning up ones own soul first but then we have been using landfills and fouling oceans for so long, I can stay dirty a little longer to work to cap the stink coming in from the breeze.
So nice to be inhere. I visit every day! •✿⊱╮
I bet that restaurant owner didnt have to eat at 100 restaurants to get 100 diners to eat at his ... just sayin'
A beautiful post. Love those glowing shots of yours.
I loved the visit. Thank you.
Thanks for the beautiful graduation day present... a virtual bouquet with many words of wisdom. Today I finally get my MA!

good thing I don't depend on "my" face for my fortune. :)
