If I could only keep my mouth shut, the world would be in better condition. NOW, if my “fingers” would keep kindness and love flowing from the tip to the keyboard, it would be even nicer. [Sometimes I just would love to have my mouth sewn shut! Oh, well.]
Those are words to write down and remember, “May nothing but love-wrapped gifts drip from your lips today.” Absolutely delicious! And your photo — reminds me of an Easter Peep! Glorious yellow shining bright from a purple background. Perfect!

Look at that purple!
Sandra says
It came out so purple, but it’s really that pink flowering tree in the background. I think it’s a crabapple–but I don’t really know my trees. 😉
