This is my attempt at making a "Zen" Garden. I realize one should probably use some sand etc. but this is my little Zen spot. All I need now is a "thinking stool".

What a wonderful four days I've spent with my little Grandaughter, Kaley. It's not just about baking cookies, is it? These memories will be etched in her little head and treasured just like the times I can remember baking and making a mess with my mom.

Never, Never, Ever Give Up!

I believe a version of this quote belongs to Sir Winston Churchill. Towards the end of his life when he was attending one of those posh banquets that requires a noteworthy speaker, he was called upon to deliver his speech. With great difficulty, he made it to the podium. The only thing he said before retiring to his seat was something like this:...."Never, Never, Ever Give UP".....I think about him saying this when things seem to be going all wrong and one needs a swift kick in the right direction!
