Monica came over this afternoon for tea and pumpkin cranberry bread. I was a little nervous all day meeting her for the first time. What if we we didn't have anything in common? What if we didn't have anything to talk about, would we just sit and look at each other? What if we were both a little shy? I met Monica at the door and she immediately gave me a big hug. Her first words were, "I feel like I'm going on a blind date!" Too funny! Exactly how I had felt all day. NOTHING to worry about. We started in jabbering right away and didn't come up for air for about an hour and a half. We drank our tea, chatted, laughed and giggled while getting to know each other. Sounded like a couple of chickens. What a fun afternoon. I am so excited to have a new friend!
Monica brought me the cutest little butterfly pin book that she made. (a picture will be included once blogger stops being so obstinate and will let me upload. GRRRR!)
Monica, thank you so much! It was so nice to meet you...

How fun! It's lovely to meet a new friend!! Sounds like a great time - and yum to the pumpkin bread!
Blogging can be a wonderful way to make new friendships :-)
Yesterday was so fun and I'm so blessed to have found you! I'm STILL talking about you to DH! LOL... I think Tom has that same glazed look on his face as Riff does!
How wonderful it must have been to find someone through blogland that you have so much in common with and live nearby to boot! I have met some wonderful people too, (like yourself...hugs), just not in real life but regardless, I am enjoying the friendship, conversation, and support I would have missed out otherwise had I not discovered this "world".

That is just too cool!! Glad you had such a good time. Cheers!
Oh this is so great and reaffirming. I am so happy for you and Monica connecting in real life now...and the bread....oh my! I have met so many fantastic and gifted and warm people through blogging. What a blessing! Most women are the same all over the world...this is so cool to read about!
