This one is ok, but I really do like the Martha one better :)

Best of luck this year...I'll be there; hopefully with as little responsibility as possible.

it just makes me want to garden. and honest the god, the chilli she made a few weeks ago was just amazing. all from her graden. it makes me want to garden. haha. like when i listen to her and carolyn talking about their vegetables and flowers respectively, i just wish i had a stone house out in the country where i could garden.

but yeah, the martha poem is brilliant. and she read one at the gallery reading about how she wants the holy family to appear in her food so she can sell it on ebay. haha. it was the funniest thing i've ever heard.

as long as she doesn't send you to buy another kettle, you should be just fine. i'll probably need you to help me post flyers this year. i sucked at it last year and we suffered for it i think. haha.
