What a sweet thing to say...

I think that little flower is a lot prettier than I am!

Still, I thank you...

I hope your Thanksgiving was a good one, sweetie...

Why, thank you!

That's a great idea...

Maybe I'll print it and give it to my daughter for Christmas!

Thank you for liking it, and thank you for the terrific idea!


As for the Chinese Egg Flower Soup? No idea!
