Postcard in "L" for a Swapbot swap.....This postcard is from a Somerset CD collection

"A lovely lass living on Lilac Lane

is laughing at a love letter from her lad

as she stands by the larder

of her landlord who is singing like a lark."

Today is going to be fun. I have my ATC group coming over for a couple of hours to visit and do a show and tell. We love sitting out on my deck and visiting. Our house is so much in the top of the trees that it feels like a vacation. I also ordered some Godiva Key Lime candy to share with them. I have tried to get the Key Lime candies the last 2 years and messed up the order. These certain candies only come out at a this spring/summer time of the year so they are not always available. I ate one the other day when they arrived and boy are they strong. The Key Lime creme is covered in dark chocolate. A friend told me about Stewart's Key Lime soda so I bought a bottle to share. I am giving everyone a shot of the soda in a shot glass. This will be a very limey green day.

We are all waiting for the heat. It feels like we are down in San Francisco where the breeze is cool off the ocean. It is great for Joe's lettuce and onions and peas. I have been working on a little paper doll that was sent out to everyone in the summer swap, it is to be photographed out and about on my summer adventures. I finished her last night and took this picture of her this morning in the flowers we still need to get planted. I am also working on a Georgia O'Keefe ATC. Since I taught a Georgia class to my students I have wanted to draw a skull picture of my own.
