I'm pleased you tried, and liked, the cc bars. I've just recently bought some more Mary Oliver books, and a cd of her reading her poetry which is wonderful.Thank you about the blog header - I have fun with it. And the bread turned out great last night. I'll be posting about it. (do I remember right that it is Chicago where you live??

We like these so much, I'll make them again. <br /><br />I look forward to seeing the header picture change; I think the past few have been quietly beautiful. <br /><br />Mary Oliver's poem was one I haven't read before. I only have one of her books and I appreciate when you include her poems so I know more of them. <br /><br />Happy blog anniversary.
