  2. All delightful! Is there really a Venus of the rags? I laughed at "well please try harder". I heard a lot of this during childhood. It wasn't funny then. And I crocheted a scrap wool blanket a lot like that when I lived in the snowy northland. Brrr. My dad says it was zero before the storm hit today. zero degrees Fahrenheit!

  5. Venus of the rags, hehehehe, that line is priceless, and you know after 8 years I still carry a love poem in me purse. Mind you it's nothing but pieces of paper but the intent remains. I enjoyed them Ralle!

  8. Does "Venus of the Rags" really exist? If so (even if not so), what a stunning image!
