I had such a wonderful time visiting on Friday. You are so incredibly talented and fun to be with. I can't wait to see pictures of your beaded bag on your blog. It is one of the most amazingly beautiful things I've seen in a long time.

What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
