Hearts to You
March 01, 2010
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kind words and good wishes. Your comments about my life and blog humble me and give me the feeling that what I'm doing is worthwhile. My posting may be inconsistent for awhile, but I will post when I can. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You fill my heart with your love and kindness.
The heart shape has always seemed like a whimsy, but it now has special meaning for me. The two blue pieces above are from my tiny collection of keepsake hearts. The lapis lazuli/silver pin was purchased when I wore jewelry more than I do now (a long time ago) and the crystal heart was a recent gift from my dear friend Shelley.
Because of all your wonderful book suggestions my reading list grew longer than you can imagine. Oh my, so many of you share my taste in books. On my sidebar is a list of books I've read this year and on my about page (scroll waaay down) you'll find last years list. The Help was suggested more often in the comments than any other book and, if you haven't read it, I highly recommend it, too.
Now, onto the winners!
Kelly-Ann is the winner of the Malabrigo Sock
Penny is the winner of the Treasure Ball
Cindy in Happy Valley is the winner of the Sublime Kid Mohair
Karen is the winner of the Manos Silk
Woohoo!
Thank you each and everyone of you for commenting!
Margene - Happy Anniversary. I've enjoyed reading your blog these past 6 years. I understand what you're saying about blogging though. I wonder if I'm spending too much time there myself. BTW - my favorite book of all is The Art of Racing in the Rain.

The Help keeps putting itself in my line of vision. Some books are better for the eyes than the ears. In what format to you recommend The Help? Happy week, Margene!

Happy Blogiversary. I have enjoyed your blog and getting to "know" you. It has been fun to see how small the world is, like the fact that your surgeon was John Doughty, who also cared for my father-in-law here in Baltimore. Congratulations to the winners of your contest. THey have won some beautiful prizes.

And you know..the older I get the more attached I am to the whimsey of the heart.

One really can't have too many books on one's book list...

What lovely true-blue hearts. Just like yours. I had a little crochet deadline, so I missed your contest. Congrats to the winners, and congrats to you on six years of blogging. I just finished four; you are way ahead of me, not that this is news.
