Alice's new shoes made by Aunt Lynnie
perfect fall pears traded from my friend Honour
My "new" plates. Started collecting plates and saucers as I find them at thrift stores to recoup some of the ones we've broken. I get so much joy using them! And only $.25 a piece, to boot :)
kick-butt thing I built with Alice's blocks - I might be more proud of this than my paintings...
fish-face Alice - definitely my child
wine, chocolate, and cheese for a night with my bosom friend, Libby

Alice's winter coat! Took a lot of searching to find this beauty from Carters. Regularly $50, got it for $30 before shipping. Thank you, Gramma Jo, for buying Alice's coat!
