TY for the Bon Voyage party

Dear Carol and Ken,

Thank you for the invitation to the Bon Voyage party for G & the girls. It was truly a lovely, tasty party on such a pleasant day.  My husband, A & I enjoyed every minute of the time spent with you and your guests. You are great hosts - thank you for welcoming us into your home. 

Sincerely,
K&A

Dear G,

Thank you for re-intoducing me to Cake (and before that, Continental)! It has been a truly fun to have some little moments of real girl-friend time over tasty treats over these last few months. I can't wait for the next one. 

Thank you also for the chocolate-coverd dates with almonds. I can honestly say, to date, I don't remember the last time I had a date, but I sure love my chocolate and almonds, so I'm looking forward to trying them.  Its going to be fun hearing about other yummy delicacies you discover during your adventures in AD.

Thank you for the Thich Nhat Hanh book, Peace is Every Breath. As the introduction says, I will refer to it to "release the tension in your body, release the tension in your feelings, and bring about healing, joy and transformation. " I have everything to be pleased and peaceful in this life...I want to enjoy every breath of it. 

Hugs to You, my Sister, for decades past and decades to come,
Karen
PS - What a great Bon Voyage party!  So nice to meet so many people who love you!

TY for the perennials!


Dear Mary Ann and Doug,

We can't thank you enough for all the flowers you shared with us from your garden. 

We planted the flowers and we are keeping an eye on them daily to watch them blossom. We will enjoy seeing the colors change throughout the seasons as each one blooms in its own time. 

It is a delight to meet caring people like you. We look forward to sharing with our neighbors what you shared with us to help improve our street for years to come!

Sincerely,
Karen & Andy

PS - Thank you also for the yummy and refreshing tea!

Thank you for the Veggies & Flowers!

Dear Deb and Jim,

We can't thank you enough for all the sharing you do with us from your garden. Not only are you making us eat and live healthier with the veggies you share, but you are helping to beautify our block with the new addition of flowers.

We have planted the flowers and we are keeping an eye on them daily to watch them blossom.

It's a delight to have caring friends like you in our lives. We are grateful for all the joy you bring us - from movie invitations to seeds and seedlings, and your never-ending positive personalities and welcoming smiles. We look forward to sharing that joy and the pretty flowers with our neighbors for years to come!

Hugs,
K&A

Dear DR,

The cabbage and carrots were scrumptious!  Truly tasty and of course fresh!  Thank you so, so much!  

Do you have any more of those yummy carrots? We have a half cabbage left and would like to recreate the salad again.

We can't get enough!

PS - The block party was a blast. Thanks for the invite!
