Oh, Lord!! Now I know I have a fever. I am hallucinating when I read notes
like this from The Empress of Clean. Mother, confess: no mud has ever
dared cross your doorstep, and I've never seen you invite the roses into
the living room except properly dunked into vases.

I too, looked twice when I noticed this post from your mother!  :-)
Oh, Pat, if only you knew the stories Catharine told us before each of your
visits!  :-)

Bambi--who's mother has also taught all the mud at her house to stay
outside!  :-)
