    My guess would be that one of his troubles was a teen daughter.

    It's just the same when I first heard the name,"Intercourse Pennsylvania" I think I almost choked. hahahahhaha

    I am so thankful that I have both Block Base and EQ. Between those two, my life is so easy.

    Here is a tip. Before I actually cut the blocks, I go on the web and see what others have done and then decide.

    Ok, going to the web to see who did what to corn and beans.

    Corn and Beans, one of my favorite patterns. It is so autumn and so comforting.
