Will Write For Chocolate updated

(updated 4:58 pm with berry plant identification at bottom...thanks, R.A.!)

Happy birthday to my mom-in-law Ginny today!

Will Write For Chocolate has been updated. Column topic: "Follow-up: Writing Spaces."

Still working on a dial-up connection. This severely limits my Web browsing capabilities, particularly since Jeff and I often need to share bandwidth. Every time I chafe at the glacial download rate, I remind myself of when all we HAD was a dial-up connection, back in "the caveman days," as one of my nieces says :-D. I remember how THRILLED I was to pick up our 300 baud Hayes Smartmodem years ago. Then again, I also remember how thrilled I was the first time I saw Pong.

Geez, I feel old. :-)

Thanks to Jenn and Scott for pointing me to What's That Bug, in response to my spider question yesterday. Looks like a great site!

Thanks also to R.A. for identifying the berry plant as a Clintonia Borealis, or Blue Bead Lily, whose fruit is mildly poisonous to humans.
