"We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day."
Lovely Joey! Happy New Year! I hope you are doing well. I have missed you. Many Blessings for this New Year! 1/1/11 a new book filled with blank pages . . . pages of days . . . I look forward to seeing how you fill them. I have enjoyed sampling your delicious recipes over this last year and more. Your beautiful collages have delighted and inspired. Looking forward to many more of your lovely posts. Cheers!

Happy New Year, dear Joey. A new day, new year, new words... I better get busy writing. *hugs* Meems I'm looking forward to sharing 2011 with you in your garden and your kitchen!
Oh, I love this quote, Joey! I think we could take these words of wisdom and apply them to each day of our lives. Happy New Year to you, and may 2011 be filled with peace and happiness for you.
Dear Joey, Maybe I should stop leaving comments late at night. I know I wrote one here . . . wishing you a Happy New Year! I said something about the pages of your book and how much I enjoyed your recipes over the last year and more . . . how stunning your collages are and how I look forward to another year of fabulous posts! Many Blessings in this New Year.
Thank you, dear Carol. I've missed connecting with you too. It's been a rough journey these few weeks since Thanksgiving with no time to post or catch up. Daughter in hospital for 11 day throughout Christmas and oldest son had a new baby. Believe me, I'm looking forward to this new year! Do hope yours is happy/healthy!
Happy New Year, fer :)
Indeed, Meems, and the same wish extended to you, dear friend. You are a joy in my life. Happy New Year!
Agree, Eileen. Happy New Year!
Thank you, dear Rose. Wishing you a healthy/happy New Year too!
It's been delightful connecting, Cat, and thank you. A very happy New Year to you also :)
Lovely image Joey. So glad you are back. I'm hoping things have settled down at your home, and that your daughter is well and you are enjoying that new grandbaby! I wish you joy and peace and health for 2011 and many more beautiful photos!
Thank you for the kind thoughts, dear Karen. You truly have been one of the loveliest 'newfound' gifts this past year. Enjoying each creative moment I visit, which I hope will be many as life settles down, thank you, fun friend. May the New Year surround us in health/peace/love ... and awareness of His creativity residing inside us!
Love it, jewel! It has been a joy connecting. Happy New Year :)
And to you, dear 'K', who lightens my life ... Happy New Year!
Indeed, dear Linda! Hugs fun engaging/creative/loving friend :)
Blessings abound with our friendship, dear Anna. Onward and upward starting with kudos to you, dear friend. Rewards are just beginning for you and your many talents ... but I knew that from day one! Hey, I'm your BIGGEST/BESTEST fan :)
