Maybe you’ll use your great grandmother’s antique brooch. Or the pin your aunt wore when she eloped. Or a diaper pin your mother saved with your baby things. Your dad’s tie-tack. Or maybe you’ll choose something that matches your colors – a fabric flower pin, or a brooch of colored beads. Or a kilt pin. Or a cameo. Your Girl Scout pin. I Like Ike. Beam me up Scotty with a Star Trek pin.

It should come as no surprise that my closest friends are innkeepers.

ShareBad news. I have discovered Words with Friends. So from now on, I’m going to stay up far too late, oversleep, and not want to cook breakfast or make beds or answer reservation requests. But hey, I’m winning… ________________________________________________________________________

I like my coffee hot. Not mostly hot, or a little bit hot, or fairly hot. Steaming, piping, right-from-the-pot hot.

ShareLarry’s recipe for blueberry scones: “Take one part Red head, add sad puppy eyes and viola! Scones appear!” Well. Ok. It works for Larry, anyway.

When springs run low, and on the brooks,
