I have a thick notebook full of printouts of everything you have written. I read it when I need inspiration to stop thinking of homemaking as drudgery, but as an art form. <BR/> I have my own blog and I would be honored if you could take a look at it. <BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-1142611233420484462006-03-17T08:00:00.000-08:002006-03-17T08:00:00.000-08:00Lady Lydia, I am so thankful I found your blog!
