Every Hot 100 Number-One Single: "Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star is Born)" (1977) by Barbra Streisand
Posted on 23 April, 2018 by Lyzette
I think the randomizer I've been using for the Every Number-One Single challenge is trying to figure out just how gay this challenge could be! At least given that the last review for the challenge was one of Pet Shop Boys' biggest hits, with Barbra Streisand up to bat next – all we need is to cover "I'm Too Sexy" and maybe a song from Katy Perry and we're set!
In all seriousness, though, Barbra Streisand is an absolute queen. I hope that one day the randomizer I use for this challenge lands on "The Way We Were", her very first number-one hit (which, fittingly, was also a soundtrack cut from a popular film of the day), so I can truly gush over how much I love her crystal-clear singing voice and that song especially. I want to emphasize this first and foremost because, as it stands, one might not get that impression over how lukewarm I am with the single that the randomizer did land on this time.
As always, though, I'll preface with a bit of background on this single at hand. Although I've included the reverse format as the title for this review, the official title for this single is "Love Theme from A Star Is Born (Evergreen)" – which sure seems like a mouthful, but I guess that's how things were run in 1977. The song was primarily written by Paul Williams, who was hot off the trails of writing a string of hits through the 70s, including Three Dog Night's "An Old-Fashioned Love Song", Helen Reddy's "You and Me Against the World", and The Carpenters' "We've Only Just Begun" and "Rainy Days and Mondays". Although Paul Williams is highly accomplished across many fields of music, film, and theater, this is his only composition that has topped the Hot 100 (although both aforementioned Carpenters tunes peaked at #2). This record won both the Golden Globe and Oscar for Best Original Song; since Streisand was given co-writer credit, this made her the first female winner of the latter award recognized as composer! It was also big at that year's Grammys, where it tied for Song of the Year with… Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life". Argh.
As for this song… yeah, I feel kind of bad that I don't feel very strongly about it, one way or another. It does have its positive qualities, don't get me wrong! The twinkly piano, swelling strings, and soft, airy melody so typical of Williams's most accomplished works are all here, and for the most part it makes for a pretty pleasant listening experience. Whereas a lot of the adult contemporary tunes from decades following tend to have this similar empty quality to them, soft-pop tunes of the 70s were relatively more willing to experiment with different sounds and tones. The biggest example of such comes with acts like The Carpenters, Bread, James Taylor, and Linda Ronstadt who, regardless of quality, all have a distinct type of softness that varies greatly from one another. In Streisand's case, the centerpiece for much of her tunes comes with her voice. It was the case with her first chart-topper "The Way We Were", and with "Evergreen", the instrumentals seem to dance around her voice, ebbing and swelling as she sees fit.
Nonetheless, it is a bit painful having to go from the natural intensity of "The Way We Were", to "Evergreen" which in many ways sounds like a sort of rehash of its predecessor. It even begins the same way – with a lone piano playing a few simple chords while Streisand warms up with some brief vocalizations. Both songs follow a similar AABA verse format and both embark upon a continual rise in emotional swell and instrumental complexity, until its final climactic seconds. The major difference between the two, of course, comes with the lyrics – "The Way We Were" is about a relationship gone dead, while "Evergreen" is a love letter from the speaker to the person to whom she is committed. A simple, pretty love song is fine and good every so often, sure. Though I can't help but feel that this sentiment was already bettered with Williams's other composition "We've Only Just Begun", which has a similarly airy sound, but is spearheaded by gorgeous production and memorable lyrics.
On that note, it is the lyricism where "Evergreen" tends to falter the most. The opening couplet alone is enough to drown this song in its cheesy romantic sensibility: "Love, soft as an easy chair / Love, fresh as the morning air". I am also not a huge fan of the lines, "Spirits rise and their dance is unrehearsed / They warm and excite us, 'cause we have the brightest love" – it's all just a little too much, especially for a song that is supposed to be simple and delicate. Though it's been almost two years since I wrote a brief paragraph on this song for my overview of 1977's top 100 songs, I still hold the same opinion that there are a handful of other much better Streisand tunes to check out before reaching for this one. Once again, it's not a bad way to spend three minutes… but then again, it being the fourth biggest song of the year is a bit much.

Ah a random element! I sometimes wish i'd done something similar when taking on my challenge, for a bit of variety!
Lyzette says:
I do my Billboard Year-End overviews in chronological order, and knowing how slowly I work and how long it's taken me to get to the 80s, I didn't want to move quite as sluggishly for this challenge! I use random (dot) org, and it's worked out for me pretty well thus far.

tado°, the European market leader in intelligent home climate control solutions, has today announced that it has joined forces with E.ON to offer UK consumers a smarter home heating and hot water solution.


JOY!! Ann Lamott said "The BEST makeup is joy" and I have to say that I fully heartedly agree!! Christmas is a time for family and friends; a time to put all grudges and anger aside; to consider what this holiday truly means to YOU. And as a makeup artist, I have to say: if it is about looking your best and picking out the right outfit and perfect makeup- then you need to revaluate!!
Thank you so much pertaining to giving me personally an update on this matter on your website. Please be aware that if a brand-new post appears or in the event any improvements occur to the current submission, I would be interested in reading a lot more and learning how to make good use of those methods you reveal. Thanks for your time and consideration of other individuals by making your blog available.


My intention is to present the constant presence of the future motif in the humanities. I want to argue that, firstly, studying legacy, tradition, the past, its significance and the role of the authority of tradition in the humanities does not have to mean treating the past as the main determinant or, just as importantly, understanding freedom and self-definition as a situation of liberating distance from tradition, from asking questions about the past. This rehabilitation of tradition sets a new perspective for the humanities, different from the issue of subordination vs. liberation. Secondly, the changeability and processual nature of culture, its variety — emphasised today — as well as circumspection and distrust with regard to attempts to predict the future do not have to make the reflection on the future pointless or utopian.
Focusing reflection on the problem of the past-future relation may be undertaken with intentions other than seeking to preserve the past, fully understand it, describe it as a (e.g. moral) paragon, find wisdom in it, trustfully copy it, protect its heritage, guard its inviolability. Intentions also other than the tendency — e.g. the Enlightenment tendency contrasted with these endeavours — to liberate oneself from the authority of tradition. Moreover, intentions other than a scientistically determined intention to predict the future, to master it, make it familiar, friendly or subordinated to current goals, an intention that is sometimes linked to plans to build a new world.
The future may be interpreted as the horizon of an obligation. However, this obligation cannot — let us say it clearly once again — be reduced to a critical assessment of the present (or the past) and a system, resulting from this analysis, of warnings or projects of social change, or a task to preserve values.
The categories of concern, responsibility occur here in other ethical contexts. It is (after the ethical turn) an ethicality aware of being involved in a drama (also the drama of tradition, of authority). Ethical thinking is thinking open to the future in the sense that the dramatic challenge of temporality, the drama of responsibility are at the centre of ethical reflection and thinking about identity.
I want to signal this problem, trying to interpret selected issues raised by selected authors: H. Arendt (being between the past and the future time; dramatic nature of a renewal of the world), P. Ricoeur (challenge posed to time) and M. Nussbaum (drama and narrative imagination; informed citizenship).

How Will The New Government Affect Your Taxes?
Author: Williamson Accounting | Oct 26, 2015
Depending on your tax bracket, the new government may either cost you or save you big bucks.
Here are some of the Liberals' promised tax changes and what they mean to you- When these promised will take effect is currently uncertain:
Lower Taxes for Middle Class
The Liberals as stated that their first priority will be to cut the tax rate from 22 per cent to 20.5 per cent for the middle income tax bracket, which affects Canadians with taxable annual income between $44,701 and $89,401. There is some speculation that this could be done retroactively to the beginning of 2015, but more than likely, this rate change would be effective January 1, 2016. However, for this to take place Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would have to act pretty quickly, very similar to what Rachel Notley had done in Alberta.
High Income Earners Face Higher Taxes
The liberals will create a new tax bracket of 33 per cent for income earners above $200,000. This new tax brackets will pay for the middle-class tax cut. The current top federal bracket of 29 per cent affects individuals making taxable income over $138,586. For these high income earners, that means their total combined federal/provincial marginal tax rate will exceed 50 per cent in more than half the provinces.
The Liberals projected that this new tax bracket would bring in approximately $3.4 billion by 2016/17; an allowance of $600 million was taken into account of high earners using tax planning strategies to avoid higher taxes." To help combat this, the Liberals said they will increase enforcement resources for the Canada Revenue Agency "to ensure tax liabilities are collected."
Income Splitting
The liberal government lead by Justin Trudeau is focus on cancelling income splitting for families, which is technically known as "The Family Tax Cut" and in so doing, saving the government $2 billion annually.
Income splitting is said to benefit only 15 per cent of Canadian households and provides no advantage to single parents or to couples whose incomes are similar. It also doesn't help those who don't have kids or who have kids who are over 18.
"A child is a person who is going to carry on what you have started ... the fate of humanity is in his hands".
-Abraham Lincoln
While it's possible that such a move could be cancelled retroactive to 2015, doing so could be a major blow to families who have relied on the up-to-$2,000 benefit, which was the maximum savings under the Family Tax Cut.
Replacing the Universal Child Care Benefit
Will families be better off? The Liberals promise to replace Harper's Universal Child Care Benefit with the new "Canada Child Benefit," ending the monthly, taxable cheques of $160/month for each child under six and $60/month for kids ages six through 17. Instead, the new benefit will be tax-free as well as income-tested.
Tax Free Saving Accounts
The Liberals have promised to roll back to $5,500 the TFSA annual dollar limit, which was increased to $10,000 earlier this year by Stephen Harper's Tory government. While legally, the Liberals could decide to make such a change retroactive to 2015, it would create an administrative nightmare for both the Canada Revenue Agency and TFSA providers, not to mention TFSA holders who have already contributed $10,000 based on the current limit.
Education and textbook tax credits
The federal education amount is a non-refundable credit worth 15 per cent multiplied by $400 for each month of full-time post-secondary education or $120/month for each month of part-time schooling. The textbook amount is a similar credit, which is only available to you if you can claim the education amount and is also worth 15 per cent multiplied by $65/month of full-time post-secondary education or $20/month of part-time school.
The Liberals also plan to repeal the "modest" textbook credits, since they only provide a benefit at the end of the tax year and "are not targeted at students from low- and middle-income families." Instead, they have vowed to increase upfront non-repayable grants "that put money directly into the pockets of students." No changes are planned to the tuition tax credit.
Given that students may have already budgeted for these credits for the 2015-2016, this change may not happen until a budget is introduced, likely in early 2016.
Note: Each tax payor is unique, Please consult with your Financial Advisor or Accountant to see how these changes will affect your tax situation.

FedEx Introduces New Solution for Deep Frozen Shipments
Healthcare Customers Will Benefit from Combination of Sophisticated Technology And Reliable Logistics Management
MEMPHIS, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) today announced the launch of FedEx Deep Frozen Shipping Solution, which offers an innovative end-to-end service for the shipping of temperature-sensitive healthcare products around the world. The new offering is an important component of the broader FedEx HealthCare Solutions portfolio of services for customers in the life sciences and biopharma industries.
The solution uses liquid nitrogen dry vapor technology that maintains a temperature of below -150 degrees Celsius for up to 10 days using the CryoPort Express® Dry Shipper. Unlike dry ice, this technology is classified as non-hazardous, which eliminates the complexities associated with being classified as dangerous goods. In addition, the overall process is simple. Customers place orders online through a customized FedEx portal. FedEx provides the pre-conditioned container to the customer to load their temperature-sensitive product. FedEx then delivers the container to its final destination while actively monitoring the shipment and intervening if needed during transit. Finally, FedEx picks up the container and returns it for refurbishing.
"The FedEx Deep Frozen Shipping Solution combines innovative dry vapor technology with the reliability of FedEx logistics management to provide customers with the highest level of integrity and security for their high-value frozen shipments worldwide," said Raj Subramaniam, senior vice president of Global Marketing for FedEx. "It is truly a complete solution that enhances the current services we provide our healthcare customers, giving them an even greater peace of mind."
Customers involved with clinical trials, diagnostics, biotechnology or manufacturing of pharmaceuticals will benefit from the solution with the following features and benefits:
Up to 10 days of holding time (<-150C) to support complex international moves
Elimination of dry ice, removing the need to re-ice shipments or purchase, inventory or manage insulated boxes
No need to train personnel on handling hazardous materials
Reduced environmental impact since the non-dangerous goods container is recycled and liquid nitrogen evaporates harmlessly
Proactive monitoring and intervention from origin to destination, providing visibility to the shipments via the FedEx Priority Alert(SM) service
"We have heard from customers that they want a simpler alternative for shipping temperature-sensitive products that eliminates the complexities involved with dry ice," said Carl Asmus, vice president of International Market Development for FedEx.
The FedEx Deep Frozen Shipping Solution is classified under the International Air Transport Association (IATA) as a non-hazardous dry shipper and meets the requirements to handle both infectious substances (UN3373) and non-infectious clinical samples.
"This new service is not only non-hazardous, but it also reduces environmental impact through the use of a recyclable container and liquid nitrogen, which evaporates harmlessly. We have found that customers appreciate that it is an end-to-end solution that is backed by the FedEx level of quality they have come to appreciate from our HealthCare Solutions team," Asmus added.
To learn more about the FedEx Deep Frozen Shipping Solution, customers can call 1-800-GoFedEx 1-800-463-3339 to be connected with a sales professional.
About FedEx HealthCare Solutions
FedEx HealthCare Solutions is committed to offering specialty services to the healthcare industry. In addition to core shipping services, FedEx also offers customized solutions including temperature-controlled ground and air transport, a high degree of visibility and compliance with 24-hour monitoring, and end-to-end solutions to handle storage, fulfillment and distribution of inventory.

As someone who has had an Audible account and rarely listened to the audiobooks, my account was a waste. I, in fact, would let my credits roll over until they somewhat needed to be used so I would end up buying about 4 at a time and again they wouldn't be listened to. In the past couple of months, however, I have had a major conversion. Normally I would have listened to podcasts while walking the dogs, cleaning, blogging and whatever else ( my favourite podcast is Two Crime Writers and a Microphone, you gotta check them out!) however I have noticed that I am listening to the audiobooks more and more. I was actually in the middle of one when I was asked to take part in the #LoveAudioWeek for Orenda and had to jump at the chance. I ended up 'reading' Sealskin, a book I have wanted to read for quite a while! Holy cow, it was amazing!
Let's learn a little about it first.
Slight Spoiler and Trigger alert!
Crikey, where to start?! First of all kudos to Angus King for being chosen as the narrator. His dulcet tones carried me off to a mystical land before the story had fully kicked in.
This is a story that starts out how nothing should ever start. There are beautiful dancing maidens who are mythical Selkies. As they are going back to the sea Donald assaults one and realising what he has done he brings her home to his mother. How this story develops is beyond amazing, it is exquisite!
Listening to the narrator brings about a real sense of wonderment. He has mastered the telling of this story in a way that had me wanting to do nothing but want to know what came next, I was hanging on his every word.
I get it, audiobooks are new and a lot of us are reluctant for change and I am someone who detests change but trust me when I say this – if you get an audiobook with the right narrator then you will be hooked and if you have never listened to one before then Angus King is the man to convert you along with the magic of Sealskin.
Oh now don't go anywhere just yet, we have a giveaway for you this wonderful Audio Book Loving Day, 3 audio copies of Sealskin ripe for the picking! All we need is you to click the button and travel to the land of Raffelcopter and, if you are lucky, your dreams might just come true!!
I want to thank Anne and Karen for asking me to take part in this wonderful event!
Fab review! I did wonder how the audiobook of this would sound & you've got me really wanting to hear it!
I listened to this and thought it was brilliant. The narrator did a wonderful job and I loved the story.
I've always struggled to get into audiobooks but I'm really keen to read Sealskin- it's good to know this was well done!!

Winners of accessible travel fund announced
Five organisations have been successful in bidding for support from the Scottish Government's Accessible Travel Fund.
Over £274,000 will be awarded to successful applications which will support the Accessible Travel Framework for Scotland, encouraging active and accessible travel solutions at a local level.
The new fund provides support to projects which enable the central vision outlined in the Accessible Travel Framework – that all disabled people can travel with the same freedom, choice, dignity and opportunity as other citizens, with a particular focus in encouraging more sustainable active travel options.
Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure and Connectivity Michael Matheson said:
"Accessible travel is critical to ensuring that people enjoy equal access to opportunities and can participate fully in society. I am delighted that we can provide financial support to help develop these important projects which support the Scottish Government's ambitions for accessible travel. In addition, this fund also supports active travel solutions and provides greater access to sustainable travel options as part of overall journeys.
"This fund will help remove disabling barriers which prevent people from travelling and improve the overall experience of those door to door journeys. It is especially encouraging that these projects respond to the needs and wishes of people with a wide range of disabilities and that they have been co-produced and implemented with the support of disabled people.
"Our Accessible Travel Framework for Scotland is both an ambition and a commitment on our part to go above and beyond to help ensure we make travel more accessible for disabled people. This fund has furthered our ambitions and I look forward to seeing the results of these innovative projects."
Eileen Seath, Day Services Officer at Clackmannanshire & Stirling Health & Social Care Partnership said:
"We are delighted to receive this funding to develop our Independent Travel Training project across Clackmannanshire and Stirling Health and Social Care Partnership.
"Having developed our project for adults with learning disabilities this funding will now allow us to increase the number of people it can benefit. We will be able to begin working with younger people as well as those with dementia and those with autism.
"This has been our vision since the project started and this funding takes us another step closer to achieving it."

Q: How to replace the second instance of a string with awk/sed I am trying to replace the second instance of the string FooBarr in a file with the value in the variable $myVar. AWK doesn't seem to parse the variable. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here please or have a better way forward please?
awk '/FooBarr /{c++;if(c==2){sub("FooBarr ",$myVar);c=0}}1' myFile

A: You need to use -v var=value syntax to pass the value to awk and use this logic little differently:
awk -v myVar="$myVar" '/FooBarr /{c++} c==2{sub("FooBarr ", myVar); c=0} 1' myFile

Or better to pass-in search term from command line as well:
awk -v s='FooBarr ' -v myVar="$myVar" '$0~s{c++} c==2{sub(s, myVar); c=0} 1' myFile

Explore – This is not a linear game. At all. The Norse world is vast with so many secrets hidden away and so much cool content locked aside from the main path. Go find it all, stray from your mission as much as possible. You never know where the next upgrade to your health bar or cool armor addition will be hiding. You won't regret really taking your time with this game.
Adapt – It helps to really learn the ins and outs of combat early on. Especially the Leviathan Axe. Mastering the core techniques of the weapon will guarantee you an advantage in every combat situation, even against enemies that statistically over power you. There are enemies in this game that aren't meant to be beaten when you're first able to encounter them. Knowing how to use the Axe properly can change this. The throw especially can be used to crowd control, allowing you to isolate an enemy as Kratos and really focus your damage output.
Parry – Yes, you can parry. By pressing L1 at a precise moment in an enemy's attack you are able to not only stop the blow but issue a devastating counter. These can really change the tide in a battle and are very useful when you find yourself in a situation with not a lot of health. By using parries to target and kill aggressive enemies you can buy yourself some precious recovery time.
Listen – Turn the volume up. Get rid of any distractions. Get a divorce, send your kids to a friends house or just lock them out. The sound in this game is brilliant. This ranges from personal conversations between Kratos and Atreus that build the relationship to stories that really help to expand the lore of the franchise. Even when you think nothing is going on, something is going on.
Relax – God of War is a hard game. This isn't unusual for the franchise. Don't be afraid to relax and choose the story difficulty section. The game is too good to be missed based on a difficulty barrier, it has been included as an option for a reason.
Learn – Take your time. Look through your inventory constantly, check items. Read pieces of lore as you collect. Everything in this game is included for a reason. Absorb it all, you'll never know where a clue to something interesting lies. You could find an incredible item and get too caught up in the action to realize and forget to equip it and take advantage.
Bond – Atreus will be at your side throughout combat. You might be used to companions being an annoyance, I still haven't forgotten Resident Evil 4. Atreus is different. He is very useful in combat, at times I've forgotten to trigger his abilities in battles and kicked myself afterward for the mistaken. He can provide a slight edge that you'll be grateful for come the battle's end. With the right combinations, enemies that challenge Kratos can be rendered trivial. As we say here at thelootgaming.com, teamwork makes the dreamwork.
And there you have it. Seven totally spoiler free tips to get you started in God of War. Stay tuned for our review, until then here's our Hellblade review, it's well worth a read if you're into this type of game.

Campfire bans in many wilderness areas and national park backcountry areas are something many backpackers have yet to reconcile with longstanding tradition.
But the next "leave-no-trace" bomb might hit them where it hurts: Some people advocate that backpackers pack out all human waste.
For some time Mount Rainier National Park has required that climbers pack out human waste because it does not decompose at icy altitudes. The U.S. Forest Service is considering such a plan for climbers on Mount Baker as well. At certain spots in the high country of Olympic National Park, hikers are required to bag their waste and leave it in receptacles along the trail.
However, while some wilderness advocates are urging that all hikers pack it out everywhere, that is not likely to be required in the near future in the Northwest.
"I don't see any time soon we'll be requiring people to pack poop out of the Alpine Lakes (Wilderness)," said Gary Paull, trails and wilderness coordinator for the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. "There is enough organic soil for us to put in (pit) toilets at heavily used areas, and we encourage people to use those."
So far, disposal of human waste is not a huge problem in the exceedingly popular Alpine Lakes, said Tim Foss, wilderness specialist at the Wenatchee National Forest's Cle Elum Ranger Station.
"Every once in awhile, we'll come along a disgusting pile," Foss said. "A worse problem is people burying their waste and then throwing the toilet paper into the bushes. Toilet paper 'flowers' are fairly common."
So how do you properly do your business in the backcountry?
Use a pit toilet if there is one; in some wilderness areas you are required to use them.
Lacking that, at the very minimum, backcountry rangers and your fellow hikers ask that you find an appropriate spot at least 200 feet from any water source and dig a hole through the forest duff into the soil, at least 6 inches deep.
Bury your waste and the toilet paper completely, using forest floor debris to cover and camouflage the bare spot.
If you want to go a step further, Paull urges that you pack out all toilet paper, putting it in zipping plastic bags, even when using a pit toilet.
"Be sure to throw it away when you get home. It can come as a real surprise three months later when you go back into your pack," he joked.
Some climbing outfitters and hikers are now using a pack-it-out system that involves a 2-foot section of 4-inch diameter plastic pipe, with screw-on ends. They do their business into a paper bag, throw in a handful of cat litter, then toss the bag into the pipe, which is sealed and usually carried on the outside of the pack. Once off-trail, they dump the contents appropriately.
As for urinating, make sure you do it 200 feet from any water source. Where mountain goats are prevalent, such as Enchantment Lakes Basin in the Alpine Lakes, find a rocky area, since the animals are known to chew up soil and vegetation to get at the salt content.
Fire is another burning backcountry issue.
In most wilderness areas and national park high country, campfires are already banned. In the Alpine Lakes, they are not allowed anywhere above 4,000 feet west of the Cascade Crest and above 5,000 feet east of the crest. In addition, they're banned in certain popular destinations at lower elevations.
In many spots where they're allowed, the damage from fire is all too obvious. Some campsites at Waptus Lake north of Cle Elum, 10 miles inside the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, have three, four or five scorched areas each where people have built fires, and trees all over have been hacked for firewood. At Lake Serene in the Skykomish area, just outside the wilderness, campers built a fire a few years ago at the base of a beautiful old-growth fir tree that later toppled.
At the same time, the warm crackle of a campfire is a tradition many love.
"It is getting better, but it is one of those things that is not going to change overnight," Paull said. "There are people who can't go out in the woods without a fire every night. They've been having that experience in the Alpine Lakes for 30 or 40 years."
Where allowed, fires can be built without damage to the environment, particularly in low-elevation areas where wood is plentiful.
If you have to fire up, build it in an existing fire ring. If none exists, find a rocky spot bare of vegetation -- a riverbank, for example. Cover the area with a couple of inches of soil, if you can find it without removing vegetation, and build the fire there. Keep it small, and when extinguished, scatter the ashes and put the soil back.
Some horse packers carry a foil-like ground sheet, cover it with soil and build their fires on that.
Burn only dead and downed wood. Hacked-up trees are ugly, and green wood burns poorly anyway. Don't burn and leave aluminum and/or foil.
It should be noted that environmental damage to the wilderness is much less severe now than 30 or 40 years ago, because hikers are becoming educated in leave-no-trace ethics. They are leaving less litter, cutting fewer limbs, dealing with waste properly and camping in appropriate spots.
Camp in an existing site. It's rare that you won't be able to find one. If you have to camp in an untrammeled spot, choose hardened areas, such as on rock or snow. Camping on grass is better than on heather meadows and bushy areas.
Wear sneakers or water socks around camp and stick to main trails, avoiding "social trails" that radiate from most sites.
Don't wash your dishes in lakes or rivers. Use a minimal amount of biodegradable soap and rinse your dishes well away from water.
Don't take shortcuts on switchbacks in the trail, which tramples vegetation and hastens erosion. Stay in the middle of the trail whenever possible. Going around mud puddles widens the trail; good boots will keep you dry.
Don't feed wildlife. It creates problems later, such as the raccoons at Ozette that are famous for their thievery and aggressive deer that come to rely on handouts.

MDEA Busts First Two Meth Labs in 2019
TSMPI Staff
MDEA
FIRST INCIDENT:
MDEA's Lab Response Team was called out twice over the weekend to process methamphetamine manufacturing in Bucksport and on Indian Island (photo above).
Penobscot Nation Police were called to a residence on Indian Island early Saturday morning where a 38-year-old woman was found dead, said Stephen McCausland, Maine Public Safety Spokesman.
Her identity and further details related to the death are not being released, although there is no evidence of foul play, McCausland said.
While inside the home, police encountered items they believe had been used to make methamphetamine and called in MDEA agents to assist. The MDEA Lab Response Team was requested and collected samples for analysis and turned hazardous materials over to the Department of Environmental Protection. The investigation into the meth making operation and the circumstances surrounding the death remain under investigation by Penobscot Nation Police and MDEA.
SECOND INCIDENT:
On Sunday morning Bucksport Police responded to a disturbance on Central Street and encountered items they suspected had been used to make methamphetamine.
The MDEA Lab Response Team searched the home Sunday afternoon. Samples were taken for analysis and hazardous materials were turned over to the Department of Environmental Protection. Drug Agents and Bucksport Police arrested 28-year-old Megan Patten, charging her with unlawful operation of a meth lab, said McCausland. She remains at the Hancock County Jail. MDEA Agents, Bucksport and State Police previously seized a meth making operation at this home in November.
These are the first two responses in 2019 for MDEA's specialized hazmat/evidence recovery team. In 2018 the team was used 52 times; compared with 58 in 2017, 126 in 2016 and 56 in 2015.
The most common method of making methamphetamine in Maine remains the "one pot" method, where most of the chemical reaction takes place in a plastic bottle, McCausland said. This process involves a heavy metal reacting violently with water and the plastic bottles can easily rupture, causing flames to shoot out. This is a highly dangerous and toxic process and specially trained MDEA Agents are required to don fire retardant chemical suits, breathing tanks and masks to process the evidence.

British History >
Women's Suffrage >
Women in Industrial Work
By 1910 women made up almost one third of the workforce. Work was often on a part-time or temporary basis. It was argued that if women had the vote Parliament would be forced to pass legislation that would protect women workers.
The Women's Industrial Council concentrated on acquiring information about the problem and by 1914 the organisation had investigated one hundred and seventeen trades. In 1915 Clementina Black and her fellow investigators published their book Married Women's Work. This information was then used to persuade Parliament to take action against the exploitation of women in the workplace.
"Mummy, why don't they forcibly feed us?"
Will Dyson, The Daily Herald (1914)
(1) In 1898 Selina Cooper wrote an article for a magazine entitled The Lancashire Factory Girl.
I have often heard the 'sarcastic' remark applied to the factory worker oh she is only a factory girl; thus giving the impression to the World that we have no right to aspire to any other society but our own. I am sorry to say that we are not fully awakened to the facts that we contribute largely to the nation's wealth, and therefore demand respect, and not insult. For in many a Lancashire home are to be found heroines whose names will never be handed down to posterity; yet it is consoling to know that we as a class contribute to the world.
(2) In 1906 Isabella Ford wrote a book, Women and Socialism, explaining why women suffragists should also be active in the socialist movement.
The Socialist movement, the Labour movement, call it which you will, and the Women's movement, are but different aspects of the same great force which has been, all through the ages, gradually pushing its way upwards, making for the reconstruction and regeneration of Society.
(3) In 1896 Isabella Ford wrote an article entitled Why I Joined the Independent Labour Party. One part of the article dealt with the subject of women and trade unions.
Some unions excluded women, and others admitted them, mostly in order to prevent them from being blacklegs to men. 'The women must be got in because they undersell us, they injure us' - it was the old story of Rousseau and the sole object of women's education being to make women useful to men, over again. I was thinking of leaving the Trade Union movement altogether for the antagonism between men and women was widening and I could see no way of interesting women in the movement. Women resent this spirit of antagonism between them and men.
(4) In 1893 Isabella Ford wrote a book called Women's Wages. The book includes a section on sexual harassment in factories.
A premium is sometimes put on impropriety of conduct on the women's part by the foreman. That is, a woman who will submit or respond to his course jokes and language and evil behaviour receives more work than the woman who feels and shows herself insulted by such conduct, and wishes to preserve her self respect. The pittance earned by some of these women is earned at the expense of more than only hard toil. Even when this coarseness is confined to language only, it causes deep suffering to some of the women. They feel, they know, that because they are women and therefore regarded as helpless and inferior, they are spoken to as men are not spoken to, and the sting enters their souls.
(5) In her booklet, Industrial Women and How to Help Them, written in 1901, Isabella Ford attempted to show why it was so important for industrial workers to get the vote.
Certainly trade unions will never flourish amongst women, until on election days the female union voice can make itself heard alongside the male union voice… It has always been so with men; and men and women are wonderfully alike… That the improved status a vote would give these women would be a large factor in raising their wages there cannot be the smallest doubt. In the language of the girls themselves about it. They don't dare put on a man same as they do on us; not they! 'Of course not,' said a male trade unionist, 'you see men have a vote.'
(6) On 22nd October 1907, Clementina Black spoke at the National Union Women Workers Conference about unskilled workers.
Trade unionism could not do for the unskilled trades and the sweated industries what it could do for other trades, and they must look to the law for protection. Surely the time was coming when the law, which was the representative of the organised will of the people, would declare that British workers should no longer work for less than they could live upon.
(7) Cicely Corbett Fisher, a representative of the Women's Industrial Council, gave a talk on sweated labour at East Grinstead in May 1912.
Sweated labour may be defined as (1) working long hours, (2) for low wages, (3) under insanitary conditions. Although its victims include men as well as women, women form the great majority of sweated workers. The chief difficulty is combating this evil abuse is that nearly all sweated work is done in the homes of the workers. During the recent strike of Jam makers in Bermondsey the wages of the girls only just sufficed to provide them with food, and left no margin whatsoever for the purchase of clothes, for which they were entirely dependent on gifts from friends… Chief among these evils of sweated labour is the exploitation of child labour. Children of six years and upwards were employed after school hours, in helping to add to the family output and even infants of 3, 4 and 5 years of age work anything from 3 to 6 hours a day in such labour as carding hooks and eyes to add a few pence per week to the wages of the household.
(8) In March, 1918, The East Grinstead Observer reported a speech made by Selina Cooper at the local branch of the Women's Citizen Association.
Selina Cooper explained that she started work when she was only ten years of age and for eighteen years was employed as a weaver. She said women needed to do on a collective basis what they could not do individually for themselves. As an industrial worker, and since as a wife and mother, she realised how much legislation concerned her… women had expert knowledge to enable them to deal with great reform. Take the housing problem, a woman was far more likely to detect anything lacking in a house than a man was. They needed women's idea of economy and her grasp of detail.


On Tuesday, March 23rd, the Associated Press released an internationally-distributed story entitled "CatholicTV Rolls Out Shows in 3-D to Attract Youth".
The story has been picked up all around the U.S. including the New York Times & The Washington Post. The story has also been picked up around the globe including at the New Zealand Herald, News 24 South Africa, and many others.

But seriously. I think the containers in these photographs transcend 'common'!
I think it's now time to grab my credit card + head to the garden center!
Tabula rasa is a term I learned in college Psychology 101.
a clean or empty slate.
now that we've yanked out the errant, overgrown evergreens . . .
. . . a tabula rasa!
we inherited another blank slate.
planted at the foundation of our north-facing, shady front porch.
but don't you think it 'needs' some white flowers to add brightness + contrast?
White impatiens! They really do 'pop' in the shade.
At dusk, they turn into little white stars — so beautiful!
Don't they look great as companions to pretty, green boxwoods?
which, coincidentally, are my favorite SUN-loving flowers!
What shall I plant here? — I've been asking myself, pretty much from Day One.
Well, since I love the combination of boxwoods + white flowers so much . . .
. . . I want to do that again.
No shade-tolerant impatiens this time, though . . .
. . . here I'll spring for sun-loving white roses, instead!
a tree, shrub, or other plant having a tall, erect stem.
for a mere $25 apiece.
And how fast could I get 5 of them inside my Volvo wagon?
Saner heads prevailed, + I'm going to WAIT to landscape out front.
until AFTER our house's siding is up + at 'em.
Fingers crossed, though, that the siding will be up + at 'em very soon . . .
. . . + that, this fall, I can still find standard white rose trees + boxwoods!
I am not a fan of old concrete.
Why is there so MUCH of it at the Dutch colonial?
For starters, take our old broken + heaving driveway.
Why can't we have something charming + gravel+ Frenchie, like these?
Oh, I suppose there are issues after a snowfall, when it's time to plow.
They claimed it could be plowed without any pesky gravel issues!
Fingers crossed somebody can do this here in the Midwest!
And now, let us turn our thoughts to our naughty sidewalks.
Sadly, what we now have is like this . . .
so I'll have to be patient.
Look how awesome the old bricks are!
for a new front walk . . .
HA! Look at how HAPPY she is!
You wouldn't believe how many times this was pinned!
not with my OCD + perfectionist tendencies!
Back to the genuine brick sidewalks!
Bricks + boxwoods + roses! Pretty much what I had in mind for our front yard garden!
Diagonal bricks with 'soldiers' borders.
Running bond pattern with 'sailors'.
Looks like a random basketweave, flanked by beautiful + fragrant herbs!
I have seen old bricks, stamped ST. LOUIS, for sale . . .
. . . + now wish I'd gotten at least one.
How awesome would this be in our sidewalk?
Does everybody have at least one kitchen design feature that they truly + deeply + madly love?
The one scrumptuous thing that draws your eye in each + every Pinterest photo you spy?
Something that you've always wanted for your own kitchen + vow to have, someday?
Well, I do! Can you guess what it might be?
That's right — it's the large windows/window wall above the kitchen sink!
YUM, right? To me, those puny, little single over-the-sink windows are just tragic! J/K, kind of!
Here's my current kitchen (below). Tragic!
And look! It's our Dutch colonial kitchen, 'before'!
Potential tragedy, am I right?
Good news! It's my lucky year!
We've sprung for the larger (dare I say 'ginormous'?) above-the-sink kitchen window!
We can't recommend them more.
They're very substantial + well-made + come with dozens of options!
We chose this window grille style — called Farmhouse.
which rest on top of the glass, both inside + out!
I'm a huge fan. Seriously, they make the windows more authentic + original-looking!
Is that window 'calling' for a window box, OR WHAT?
Those brackets really put that white vinyl** charmer over the top, don't they?
**Our Dutch colonial's exterior will be white + vinyl + as charming as I can possibly make it!
I've decided we won't replace our 'before' kitchen's peninsula . . .
Instead, we'll have an island, + it will be approximately the same length at that 2×4 board.
Our space is limited, but I'd love to provide room for seating.
+ go there often to be inspired, as do I.
There are bazillions of photos on just about any topic.
for the exterior of our Dutch colonial?
Search for 'Dutch colonials' on Houzz + voila!
Houzz not only provides awesome eye candy — it's also interactive!
+ we can respond with suggestions + photo ops!
I KNOW!!?? It's like our dreams came true!
I want to decorate my son's room.
He is 12 years old and wants to decorate to urban/city style.
which has the most inspirational room galleries, EVER!
IN-cluding these yummy bedrooms for BOYS!
^^Come ON — how awesome is that rolling bed!?!
^^Totally digging the graphic letters + numbers + industrial-style lighting!
^^Those metal beds + the huge insect art — genius!
I was SO excited to participate + share my love of the Restoration Hardware "with the class"!
where one can find "the real stuff" for less $!
that were purchased for $20-ish each, at the flea market.
would be a great fit in an urban/city-inspired boys' bedroom?
Without having to be 100% literal or — God forbid — a THEME.
Apparently, not everybody was on board.
In fact, one gal was so against my RH suggestion that she disdainfully rejected said-same!
nor is it restoration hardware or old signs.
+ kill my fun, little online buzz.
+ call her a name.
Have a swell rest of the day, + see you on HOUZZ!
SO, the start of our Dutch colonial re-do has coincided with the onset of gardening season!
Sadly, I've been advised/instructed that NO foundation landscaping can occur until after the house is re-sided.
I just HAD to plant something!
Here's what 2 flats of shade-loving annuals looks like!
I'd never seen those flowers before — at first, I thought they were a new variety of impatiens.
Their name starts with a "T" — Torinia? They grow to 8″ high.
I've had that HEAVY ceramic urn for years — this season it's sporting a Boston fern!
Now . . . just what to plant inside them!?
Take, for instance, our address number on the new house.
Clutching my credit card, I was all set to place an order for said-same, but the price!

Read reviews for "The Rain."
Noah was in shock. It had been nearly one hundred twenty years since God told him this flood would come. Now that it was here, he couldn't bear it.
Noah understood quite well what was taking place outside and why God had determined it had to be that way. Still, the reality was agonizing.
Why, oh why, did they not listen? Noah thought. He shed no tears. He had cried so much and so often in these recent days that his body could produce no more. He continued to stare into his lap. Noah wished the screams outside were not real. He wished to awaken from this nightmare. But he could only endure it.
As the rain pounded the roof and the people outside suffered, minutes were like hours. Familiar voices were begging him to open the door. Noah knotted his fists into his cloak and tried to hold on.
We huddled together around the table, terrified of what was to come. Though we had been warned, the reality of what was happening was almost more than we could bear. We violently pressed our hands to our ears to block the sounds from those outside, but we could not keep from hearing their screams. The sound of fingernails clawing desperately at the sides of the ark went through us like a knife blade.
Nothing could be worse than this, I thought.
But it did get worse. I began to hear familiar voices. The cries of strangers were harrowing enough, but now I could hear the shouts of my mother's sister and her son. When my wife, Tamara, heard her mother's voice, she could stand no more.
"Japheth, we must help them!" she exclaimed.
Suddenly, Tamara leapt and ran toward the door. I rushed after her. I had to stop her from lowering the door. I was certain that if the door were opened, so many people would rush in that the ark would capsize. When we entered the ark, even though no rain had fallen, my father had been adamant that the door be closed immediately. Now, hearing the panic-stricken people outside, I understood why.
I could barely see Tamara as she ran down the dark passage. But I heard her hysterical cries. I grabbed her just as she clamored for the latch that I had made. God had not bothered to give any instruction as to how we were supposed to hold the door closed. Dad would not listen to my elder brother Ham's fears about how the door would be torn open in rough water. He would not consider allowing us to install the huge latches that we had built because he had received no "instruction from God" to do so. So on the day we entered the ark, Ham distracted Dad with one question after another while I bolted the latches. We placed fodder in front of the door to hide our handiwork.
Before either of us could utter a word, we suddenly heard a low growl, like that of a great bear, coming from the other side of the hull. The sound came with such intensity that it stood out from the cries outside and our own cries inside. The growl was followed by a pounding on the outside of the hull as if it was being hit with a sledgehammer.
A loud creak rose above all the sounds of agony and anger from outside. The hull groaned and popped. The ark tilted sharply. I held tightly to Tamara and cushioned her from falling into the wall. The ark was beginning to move. Would it float, or had our efforts merely succeeded in delaying our deaths?
It was as we stood there, trying to keep our balance, that we noticed the door. A few hours before, Ham and I hurriedly tried to seal the seam around the door with pitch because water was seeping in. Now there was no seam. In fact, the hull now looked as solid on this side of the ark as it did on the other. I tossed the fodder aside to reveal that our latches hung open, holding nothing. I was stunned.
In the months before the rain came, exotic animals we had never seen before began to congregate in the woods and hills near our home. Their gathering at a time so close to the ark's completion made me want to believe that God was with us. Still, I had so much doubt. But something about the now-useless latches touched me more deeply. It was as though God was speaking directly to me, letting me know that the work of my hands could never save us. The latches and all the pitch would not have kept the water from rushing in the door. But God somehow had sealed it completely.
All that Dad had said was true. Dad never gave up, despite the years of ridicule and taunting he had endured. Even when he knew we doubted his sanity, he pressed on. This perseverance came because God had actually spoken to my father. It was almost too much to comprehend. My knees began to shake, and I felt faint.
Tamara noticed the door too. Her cries quieted to whimpers. Then she began again.
"We have to let them in," she said, now wild-eyed. She beat on the sealed door with all the energy she could muster. But her efforts were for naught. She could not open the door, no matter how hard she tried. None of us could. Even in the midst of being inspired by God's handiwork, I worried briefly how we would ever get out.
But that concern passed as I noticed that the cries of the people outside were subsiding. Tamara's cries stopped as she seemed to resign herself pitifully to the people's inevitable plight. I grasped Tamara in my arms, and our backs slid along the hull as we clung to one another. We couldn't cover our ears tightly enough. We could not escape the reality that people were dying just inches from where we sat. Everyone we had ever known outside our immediate family would surely be drowned soon. But for the word that God had spoken to Dad, we would have perished as well.
Shem told himself that he had to stand strong with his father, Noah, and their God. He wasn't sure that his baby brother, Japheth, and particularly his wife, Tamara, had the strength to endure what they were hearing outside. Shem knew that Japheth wanted to believe what Dad had taught them about God. At the same time, Shem realized that Japheth was sometimes too greatly influenced by their middle brother, Ham.
Our brother…humph, Shem thought.
Sometimes he wished that were not true. Since they had been small boys, Ham had always wanted things his way. In Ham's mind, all the rest of the family existed for his convenience. He had refused to help with the ark in the first two years that Noah, Shem, and Japheth worked on it. Finally, Dad forced him.
Shem had thought about stopping Tamara from running from the room. But she was Japheth's responsibility. He had his own wife, Prisca, and his mother, Sapphira, to be concerned with. He looked around at their faces and stopped on his father's. His long, gray hair and beard did not have the flowing quality Shem was used to. Instead, they were damp and stringy. His head hung down as he stared into his lap, yet Shem could tell he wasn't praying. He seemed frozen in that position. Sapphira had her head on the table, her face hidden. Her forearms covered her ears with her fingers laced behind her head. Shem wondered if she were having any success in blocking out the sounds from outside. The silent shaking of her shoulders as she sobbed answered his question.
Shem held his dear Prisca's head in his lap and stroked her hair. Prisca was a passionate woman, and she made no attempt to hide her grief. She sobbed openly and loudly. No one spoke against her. It was as if she expressed what they all felt. As he tried to comfort her, Shem could not help but wonder about his own behavior. He had heard the cries, but he had yet to shed a tear. He felt he was being strong, but maybe he was numb.
He couldn't come to grips with the fact that people outside were drowning. He kept thinking that, in a couple of days, they would open the door and see those who they knew standing there. Their loved ones would have been through quite an ordeal, but now God would have their attention. Now they would admit that the warnings from Noah had been true.
Shem had these hopes. But deep in his heart he knew that it would not happen that way. Dad said that God had made it clear He had had enough. God had instructed them on building the ark. And soon, perhaps within hours if all that Dad had perceived from God came true, all those outside the ark would perish. Shem's mind just couldn't comprehend it. So he sat and stared blankly.
Noah was in shock. It had been nearly one hundred twenty years ago since God had told him this flood would come. Now that it was here, Noah couldn't bear it. The week before, when he and his family entered the ark and closed the door, Noah had been reeling from the loss of his beloved grandfather, Methuselah, who had died just two weeks before the rain came. If not for his grandfather, Noah might never have completed the ark. It was Methuselah who had encouraged Noah from the start and had been there in support during all the times when Noah doubted himself.
Noah understood quite well what was taking place outside and why God had determined it had to be that way. Despite that, the actuality was debilitating.
Why, oh why, did they not listen? Noah thought. He shed no tears. He had cried so much and so often in these recent days that his body could produce no more tears. He continued to stare into his lap. Noah wished the screams outside were not real. He wished to awaken from this nightmare. But he could only endure it. As the rain pounded the roof and the people outside suffered, minutes were like hours. Noah knotted his fists into his cloak and tried to hold on.
The sounds of agony from outside had gradually faded as Adina, Ham's wife, tried in vain to sleep. She sobbed loudly as she lay on her crude pallet inside a storage room within the ark. Her husband, Noah's middle son, lay beside her on his back, staring at the ceiling. Ham had forced her to move their belongings into the storeroom after only three days of being quartered with the rest of the family. Adina assumed he had not wanted to be near them. She hadn't been given an explanation. Ham wasn't in the habit of explaining his actions to her.
She didn't like it here. The pallet that Ham had fashioned for them was crude, made of the same straw that was to be used to line some of the animals' cages. After one night of sleeping in the dark storeroom, Adina longed for the comfort of the bed they had abandoned in the living quarters and for the welcoming glow of the fireplace there.
As she lay there crying, her back turned toward Ham, her husband rose up on one elbow.
"Shut up!" he bellowed. Adina jumped, then pulled her hands to her mouth in an attempt to stifle her sobs. Ham leaned toward her, his mouth so close to her ear that she could feel his breath on her cheek.
"Isn't it enough that I had to hear that," Ham yelled, waving his arm toward the hull. "Do I have to lie here trying to get some sleep and listen to your blubbering too?"
Adina cringed and tried to force herself to stop crying. Ham grunted in exasperation, pulled the blanket from Adina's back, and left the room. At that moment, Adina felt more alone than at any time she could ever recall. Left to shiver uncovered on the cold pallet, Adina longed for her parents.
She never really meant to leave them. Adina's faith in God was strong. Until a few days ago, however, her faith in the pending flood had not been so strong. She had walked up the ramp following closely behind Ham, yet she had done so primarily out of loyalty to him and respect for her in-laws. She really didn't believe at that time that she would never see her parents again. At that thought she abruptly sat up, stood, and walked to the far corner of the room, weaving through shelves of supplies and barrels of wheat. Her arms folded across her stomach, Adina leaned against a barrel and thought about praying.
She did not pray. She knew on a conscious level that God loved her. She didn't doubt that. She knew that, for reasons she didn't fully understand, He had spared her. Still, she didn't want to talk to Him. She wanted to talk to her parents. She wanted to wrap her arms around her mother and smell the familiar odor of lavender that seemed to always be present in her hair. Tears began to run down Adina's cheeks more rapidly now. Not knowing what to do with herself, she returned to the pallet.
Adina lay on her side, pulled her knees in close to her chest, wrapped her arms around her shins, and rocked slightly. She knew God loved her. She knew her husband loved her, despite his eruptions. She knew these things, but as she lay alone on the cold floor, she could not feel it. This was a moment when the love of an aloof husband was simply not enough. Even the love of God, whom she had never actually seen or touched, didn't ease her suffering. Adina could not remember ever wanting her mother and stepfather so much. As she lay there rocking, the flames from the candles flickered and then went out. Alone in the darkness of the storage room, Adina stopped fighting for composure and let the sobs take over her body.
She couldn't see the One sitting in the corner of the room. He wanted to reach out to her. He wanted to scoop her up in His arms and hold her as her stepfather had when she was a little girl. That opportunity would come, but it could not be today.
He sat and kept watch over Adina and the others. He had walked about the ark and laid His hand upon the animals so that they slept peacefully. He had stood for a time beside the table as Noah stared blankly. He looked at Tamara and Japheth's faces as they first noticed the door after He had sealed it.
As He watched His people, as He saw the tears flow, He suffered in a way no one else on the ark could fathom. He suffered for those outside. He felt every tear that fell inside. Oh, that they could know how His heart broke for them. But they couldn't understand. He knew that. So He sat quietly with Adina and wept.

He come here to jis' punch cattle.
Than we'd ever care to ride.
For beauty he's often hard put.
Covered with mill dust and soot.
He'll go where you won't go afoot.
That numbs and stiffens yer knees.
Where green grass and shade made a bed.
And feels each ache that you ache.
And seldom asks for a break.
Think twice of yer four-legged pard.
'Cause boys, he's dang long on heart.

Happy Friday-Eve! I've got this post scheduled but even though I'm not blogging live, I know I'll be grateful for Friday-Eve with the busy week I have!
So let's kick of the pre-weekend celebrations with a fabulous new CASE Study!
I was inspired by the theme of Kristii's card and found it the perfect excuse to ink up Sew Happy by The Craft's Meow as well as attempt to use up some of my DP!
Keeping it short and sweet today! Thanks for stopping by!
Love the taller card length and the dress forms are awesome Aimes!
What a darling take on the sewing theme of Kristii's card. Love your use of patterned paper that still keeps everything CAS, and the buttons are so cute!
I love the feel of this card. You really captured the essence of the study, but it carries its own theme as well. Beautiful!
great dress form and love the way you stamped the sentiment inside one!
