9/11 – 8th Anniversary Tribute

It is believed that “TIME HEALS WOUNDS”, but does it really? How much time will it take to heal our wounds of 9/11. It has been EIGHT years now, but it seems like only yesterday, we all lived through the worst tragedy of the history of our free nation.

Kalmar Nyckel – A Little Piece of Wilmington

I think I am still considered a “newbie” to Delaware, or at least I feel like one, especially after reading a post about the adventures of “Kalmar Nickel”, on one of my favoriteblogs which I follow regularly, http://www.mysuzyhomemaker.com/2009/07/kalmar-nyckelweekend-of-food-and-fun.html. Here is a short insert from her post, to get you started:

The Sound of Music – Julie Andrews

It’s time for some fun….Lets reminisce about the wonderful movie “The Sound of Music”, and the star actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews. A friend of mine sent me this email, and I can’t get the song out of my mind, so I am passing it on to you all, so you can try the new lyrics.

The Fairy Tea Party – Colorful and Fun

I have a very special friend who loves tea so much that she organizes tea parties with her adult friends, attends tea parties, and now organized a tea party for her grandchildren and their friends. She was so nice to share this experience with me, so I just could not resist not to share it with all of you. She is very talented and creative, and does not only make these special costumes for tea parties, but she also makes beautiful costumes for plays in her area. Her guests immensely enjoy these events, costumes, and stories that go along with each theme.

This sounds like such a wonderful idea for a party. Here is her short story, including the menu, and lots of pictures:
