As for my blog posts, most of my old blog I want to delete, but don't have the heart, because I cherish quite a few of the posts. Some of the earlier ones, were just to get my thoughts out! Back in the day, they were mostly memes, which were great to get to know everyone, and find bloggers you had a lot in common with. My favorites are all the stories of my children when they were little, which I really enjoy reading over again! So I'll keep it! ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17239088554458993993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-84510325513549936502015-05-26T08:02:01.296-05:002015-05-26T08:02:01.296-05:00Sharon, thank you so much!

It used to be that way in Florida and on the Gulf Coast of Alabama, but I think people in those areas are transitioning to canvas-covered furniture with slipcovers because it is easy to throw in the wash! I will have to check out your recipe! :-) Hugs!!Benitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712521705008463049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-86431233629488927372015-05-25T15:49:49.236-05:002015-05-25T15:49:49.236-05:00You know, it is just one of those posts for me.

I can’t put a finger on why I don’t like it….maybe it is because it is about rattan…LOL. I didn’t even have any when we lived in Texas, even though I knew it would hold up. I just couldn’t bring myself to make the purchase!

My gluten-freed DF mushroom soup is my most popular post, and it has a photo of an apron, because the soup looks gross, but tastes great. :) The rattan look is very classic in Hawaii. Almost anywhere you stay the furniture is rattan. It's pretty, but wouldn't work here. xoxo SuButterfly 8)(8 Bungalow https://www.blogger.com/profile/12407401010841427366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-33159965478102668322015-05-25T07:11:05.438-05:002015-05-25T07:11:05.438-05:00What's wrong with that post?

We can't have wicker inside because cats think it's ideal to scratch on, although it's very pretty and good for hot locales, like Texas. Like you, I feel that some rattan is nice, but most of it rates an "eh" on my mental decor rater. Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10891846684740775290noreply@blogger.com
