But for now we're off to Calico Crafts for a celebration of the rose, and a celebration of one particular Rose - our extraordinary neighbour, who celebrates her 97th birthday today. That deserves some Shakespeare, don't you think?
I hope you like what you find if you hop over to Calico, and I'll hope to be hopping round for some more visiting in the next few days. I know, I know... promises, promises!!
Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful weekend!
Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose, is a rose.
