I'm all in favor of "practical, useful items"!! Btw, don't forget, we had our seudot on Sunday, not Friday. So, two wasn't as crazy as it sounds...

I once bought flowerpots and also herb seeds to put in the pots, along with the other goodies. This year I prepared a particular package and put it in a colander -- I like practical, useful items!<BR/><BR/>Hope as spring visits us, you're feeling stronger every day...torontopearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12246510242496347242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782551808324372235.post-43818174349375341482008-03-25T20:57:00.000+02:002008-03-25T20:57:00.000+02:00Karin RivkA,I think you and your readers would enj...Karin RivkA,<BR/><BR/>I think you and your readers would enjoy the following article, you need to be registered at the New York Times on line to access it, it is very poignant. http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/03/24/prayer-faith-and<BR/>-doctors/<BR/><BR/>I put a space in the link between "and" and the dash "-" so it wouldn't be cut off here. Just remove the space and you're good to go.<BR/><BR/>EsterAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13127437239948770289noreply@blogger.com
