TheBanyanTree: It was Sash's idea

[auntiesash]

Wow Paul... you did it.  I'm so glad.  It's kinda like poking a sore tooth,
but I go back and look at pictures and read recipes.  It would be more than
sad for that to be swallowed up by a failed server, a corporate merger, or a
brother not renewing a link....

I have a box of mystery novels, a stack of 1970's classic recipe cards, and
some New Yorker cartoons I photocopied and set aside.  I really shoulda
mailed this stuff.  She would have loved the surprise.  Now it's like a
little shrine, stacked all up under my desk.  Dee wouldn't have minded the
clutter.

Thanks Paul.  Really.

xoxo
