html what?


"Big Bertha" made a mighty fine omlette.....
----------------------------------------------------------------

You know there is an old country saying that goes like this: "A good fisherman knows what to put on the hook." When my husband and best friend Shep asked me what I thought about starting a blog (realizing full well that I LOVE to write and express myself artistically) he knew that I'd jump all over the opportunity. He also knew that it would, um, "encourage" me to stretch my mind in a direction I have diligently avoided for years: html protocol/editing.

Ugh.

Thus the great space in time between my first two blog posts. Believe me, there is no such thing as a "free" horse....or blog design. :-) Tonight, however, was a breakthrough. Barring unforseen circumstances I should have this show on the road by Monday. It IS Valentine's Day tomorrow, after all!

May your every kiss be a chocolate one :-)
