Comment: Thank you for the postcard - I hadn't heard of that brand of pasta before. :)

Response: You're welcome. It's usually in the organic section of supermarkets. I just love the bunny...and the macaroni and cheese is actually pretty good, too. ;)

Comment: What a beautiful town you live in, and your love for it shines through in your photos and text. I like the monument to Rbt. E. Lee, the bridges, and the marsh. Your walk inspired me; if we do this swap again, I think I'll walk around my little town.

ArtyBeth3 rated for EOTPF: Calling all Cat Lovers on Mar 29, 2013

rating

Comment: Thanks for the fun cat postcard; what do you think the cat is thinking - feed me? pet me? I would love a lap cat; ours prefers my husband's lap to mine and I think it's because he's home during the day, I'm not. But she likes to sleep on me once the light is out...strange.

Response: I don't know what that cat was thinking...maybe it was in the middle of a yawn, hee hee. I just loved the eyes, too. :) Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the heart. :) This was a fun swap.

Comment: Thank you for the lovely Easter card. I always associate Easter with Spring. Since I moved to FL though, there really is no 'Spring' season...I miss it (I'm originally from western NY State). Also thank you for the newsy letter sharing the beginning of your Spring with me. HUGS

Response: I wish I could send you some Springtime from here today...it's lovely. Hopefully you will find something special, even in almost-always temperate Florida. Thank you for the prompt rating and the heart. I'm so glad you enjoyed the letter, too. :)

MUAH!!!!!!

Perhaps towards the end of June a meet-up would work????? Just let me know.

TC on May 17, 2013:

Thanks for thinking about me! I have been waiting 35 years to see a tornado (since I moved to the midwest). One finally shows up, and it's too dark for me to see anything! LOL.

We've been having a battle over the kitty's name. I want to call her Missy. My son wants to call her Galacticus, Devourer of Worlds. ;)
