Hope it works for you next time. Love your frizzled thistles - love your hubby too. Might be in for a bit of cradle snatching so watch out!!!! Keep him under lock and key!!! Hmmm, perhaps I haven't the energy to chase another man!!!! The one I've got is fine anyway!!Jane Eborallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129528958253092545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8790815654275899841.post-55407214614598195322013-12-16T07:45:31.071-08:002013-12-16T07:45:31.071-08:00Just don't stick pins in the dog!
