It was wonderful to make a new friend and we hope to see you both in South Africa one day. One slight problem re your post about our meeting - I felt so much younger and thinner when that photo was being taken...<br />Our best wishes to you both <br />Gee xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-459018932772057756.post-17869546681297995982016-10-18T13:25:41.890-07:002016-10-18T13:25:41.890-07:00Just curious why you gave it a D?

I'm quite tired of Ben but thought this movie looked good. Oh well, I don't have time to see a movie right now anyway : ) Looks like a fun weekend! Gorgeous weather here too, but way too warm for plaid scarves still. I'm in flip flops and shorts today.

Huge. And then to have the opportunity to dine with a South African reader and her hubs? Now that's not something one can say every day either. Hopping over to check out your Amaze Me Monday post ... yet more icing on the cake.

How fun meeting someone from across the world! Look like you were having a great time, meeting other bloggers is one of the best thing about blogging! So sorry it didn't work out when I was there! I havent' done my post on Plymouth ( still planning on it), saw that you were there not to long ago. If you go back, you might want to try the Water Front Café. We ate breakfast there 2 days in a row cuz it was so wonderful. It's just what it says, a little café but the the food is amazing, the girl that waited on us was sweet, gave us excellent service and had worked there for 10 years.

I say that like I do that a lot (and used to) but haven't in so very many years! The library is fantastic -- I've never been and now I see why it's a destination even for those who don't want to check out a book!

That has haunted me ever since. That farmer's market was up and running on the day we were in that square, though. Delightful. And please let us know how the Mister likes that CrockPot.
