HI!
Question: When did I use the word doily?
Answer: Last week. I made one for a birthday gift to set upon.
It is a statue of bright red cardinal. Christianed him him Roming Chocolate.
(Not to be confused with the band member of Sexual Chocolate from Eddie Murphy’s movie Coming to America ) Looks to Erin. Can I post that comment? Smiles and flutters eyelashes trying to be cute.
