Afternoon all. Nice day with a cool breeze thanks to the cold front. Still warm but not hot out. Hopefully did the last of the food shopping and now I&#39;m trying to figure out what to pack for our cruise. Tomorrow will be prep day for the holiday meals so taking it slow today. At least the dog has shut up today.....LOL so far.<br /><br />Tonia, 500 cookbooks???? Wow&#33; I only have 4. Try leather conditioner for that purse. It may take a couple of trys but it will soften up. <br /><br />Jenn congrats on getting the cleaning done. Can you come here next???? <br /><br />Steve hope your boxer is doing better today.
