I had a book called Ratty Tatty for Sylvia, that is about a lost rabbit, but by the time I saw you, too much time had passed and I thought it might just open old wounds.<br /><br />Cooper has that same quilt cover on his bed right now!<br /><br />What a fabulous year. The highlight for me was meeting the three of you xxJacqueline Meldrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05748535381400208316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-46100468881509881642013-01-04T22:30:03.587+11:002013-01-04T22:30:03.587+11:00Thanks Lucy - it is sad that Dolly seems to be gon...Thanks Lucy - it is sad that Dolly seems to be gone but at least we have had lots to make us happy too, and we have pumpkin curry - hurrah!Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-22924524476192875322013-01-04T22:28:55.055+11:002013-01-04T22:28:55.055+11:00Thanks Kiersten - yes you should check out the tof...Thanks Kiersten - yes you should check out the tofu bacon - it is easy to make - I often make it around when I make dinner and have leftovers in the fridge that always gets used - and it is so yummy - once I discovered all the smoky food that wasn't meat (liquid smoke, smoked paprika etc) I realised it was the smoky flavour rather than the bacon that I missedJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-80923775622495019572013-01-04T22:26:41.296+11:002013-01-04T22:26:41.296+11:00Thanks Shaheen - lovely to hear from you after all...Thanks Shaheen - lovely to hear from you after all your hard work this year - it is an inspiration to me to see where you have got yourself.

And in this space you have informed me of things I have missed in the last few months - bye bye to PPN for a start. Anyway, it was So lovely to hear from you. I have been coming by your blog and reading when I have time, just have not had the time to comment with consideration, I must say I did wish i was back in Scotland because i know we would have made a point of meeting up whilst you were there, but hey that's life. Wishing you a good 2013, and Thank you as always for staying true and supporting me throughout my blogging years, even though the last year was poor for blogging on my part, not yours :) Shaheenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602971207085826708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-24105189179144733722013-01-04T04:50:24.436+11:002013-01-04T04:50:24.436+11:00Happy New Year, Johanna!
