Swimming in butter is my favourite food, which sounds odd, but when something around here gets buttered it gets excessively buttered. <br />The teatowels are wonderful and THANK YOU for my red ones which arrived yesterday. I meant to email you, but got caught up with visiting my elderly neighbour, one of her equally elderly cats isn't doing so well, so I chatted with her for several hours. The neighbour, not the cat.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-91472647965722274262019-01-09T19:24:35.074-05:002019-01-09T19:24:35.074-05:00Toby has the answer all right.Toby has the answer all right.the fly in the webhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563871975125538755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-1824992029747702512019-01-09T18:55:53.511-05:002019-01-09T18:55:53.511-05:00The best toast is swimming in butter!The best toast is swimming in butter!Kathy Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10593849691667606991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-74337041197256763482019-01-09T18:34:24.729-05:002019-01-09T18:34:24.729-05:00Your buttered toast reminds me of John Gray's ...Your buttered toast reminds me of John Gray's recent post where he was eating loaf "slapped liberally with butter" - I try to be good most of the time, but there are some things that cry out for lots of butter!<br /><br />You can tell it's chilly as Toby is all in a ball.

And so I have the note open right now.Joanne Noragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16601010208310707750noreply@blogger.com
