All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt. ~Charles M. Schulz Okay, I admit it. I’d never heard of the word witling until I was poking around tonight to find some word definitions. To begin with, I’d thought to talk about the oddities of some words in the English language on this post, but …
Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns; I am thankful that thorns have roses. ~Alphonse Karr Well, as old Abe Lincoln once said, you can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time or something like that.

Do you like entering contests? Have you ever won anything? I’m imagining a lot of you shaking your heads. That’s why I have that “never win” drawing in my Celebration Contests. Somebody who says they never win has to be a winner. This time it was Brandy from TX. I’m hoping she doesn’t have neighbors who don’t like wind chimes. …
“The rose speaks of love silently, in a language known only to the heart.” Roses, those most romantic of flowers! And so, of course, many of the flower stories you shared with me feature roses.
