The season in the sun Posted on May 5, 2007 By pamela So, we were sitting at the breakfast table – the three additional chairs added to the coziness (I said, cozy-ness, not craziness) we experienced yesterday morning.

my new friend… Posted on April 28, 2007 By pamela So I had my second night’s rest with my new inflexible friend: night-guard.
