How people can diss our men and women in service is beyond me. I shared Thanksgiving dinner with a colonel and his family. He had just returned from Iraq. My mother-in-law had been sending him care packages for months while he was deployed. He brought her the flag that was flown over their camp in Iraq and a beautiful certificate in regard to their division as a thank you. I can't tell you what I felt as I looked at that flag in the display case... What an honor! Take care, Cher Paula, I’m glad you liked the Roosevelt quote.

Yesterday was filled with holiday and family stuff. By all means print out my post. Every word was true about you guys. You're fabulous! I'm glad you enjoyed the quote. I read it often because it gives me a much needed boost on those days when I think everything I'm writing is total crap. Brenda is amazing isn't she? I just love her and feel so incredibly blessed and lucky that she is interested in me and my work. I hope that whatever you've heard about me has been "all" good. Thanks for the kind welcome. I look forward to the day when I can announce I've sold to Blaze AND meet you guys in person. Take care, Cher :xmastree: :wreath: :stocking: :snowmanhead: :cold: :menorah: Hi Lori and Tony,

Congrats on the successful phyllo based dish. What did you make? As for a great baklava recipe, there's one for Tony's Famous Baklava on our sofie site. Go to http://www.sofiemetro.com/recipes.htm. There are a few other Greek recipes listed as well, so take a look around. I'm looking at expanding the list. I just have to remember to start measuring ingredients. Always something. :violin: xxxooo L&T Oh! Congrats on the successful phyllo based dish. What did you make?

Thank YOU for having us, sweetie. We had a blast. (Don't worry about not posting. You guys work hard at keeping this place fun and we were more than happy to chat with everyone so y'all could take a breather. They certainly kept us on our toes!) xoxo Lori & Tony :> ;> Hey, Jules!

We actually slept in until 8:30, which is very unusual for us. The alarm wakes us all week at 6:25, then on the weekend we normally get up at around 6:00 (I know, backwards. But I guess our internal time clocks combined with our weekly 'us' time inspires us to get up earlier instead of later). Not this morning, thou. And, of course, we woke to find an icky ice storm rolling in. We gulped down a cup of coffee and then ran to the grocer for a few things before the roads got too bad (garlic roasted chicken and the works on tap for dinner this afternoon). Anyway, here we are, as promised. And just as soon as we check out the rest of the posts, we'll draw a name... Sorry for the delay in posting this a.m., guys.

Sorry to hear about your daughter's current problems. You both have been through so very much. Yes, we hope she's well enough to travel to CR as well. We'd love to meet her. And see you again. It's been much too long. xoxo Lori & Tony :> ;> Oh, Patricia. Sorry to hear about your daughter’s current problems. You both have been through so very much.
