Hi, Penny in N.S. -- and how great to hear your voice! I still use the signature of Penny, NY just so that I can leave room for your return -- that's true! Sure wish I could buy that old fashioned crunchy pumpernickle down here. Used to LOVE it ! Did you get any of the effects of that last week's snow storm..? We probably got about 14 inches, and since we only had one measely snow storm last winter, Jimmie felt totally deprived.. Now, at last, he is smiling day and night as he shovels... We are supposed to get more snow on Thursday, but one never knows. The indoor plants are busting their way out of the gro-lights. I wish I had double the space for them! There are 6 or 8 kinds of coleus, plus a number of exotic geraniums and my old favorite, hoya carnosa 'shooting star' .... It's a merry cornucopia of bright greenery which I love to see -- and even when I get tired of having to water them all, I still treat them with much affection. Perhaps you will come and join us again soon, Penny. We would welcome you . . . . Penny, NY ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
