Gack.<BR/><BR/>I still haven't seen the new "Pride and Prejudice" - they had it on the airplane between Cairo and France but my headphone plug-in jack was broken. Just as well, cuz there would have been many interruptions.Tonya Ricuccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778059489713831067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1140636696564952752006-02-22T14:31:00.000-05:002006-02-22T14:31:00.000-05:00Nines, I glanced at the quilt and was engrossed in...Nines, I glanced at the quilt and was engrossed in reading when I came to the line about the cousin's son who was your ring bearer and I thought 'Hey, Nichol was her ringbearer' and then I realized that this was Alex's quilt so I scrolled back up to look at it again. It is beautiful and he will love it. You are right, they are both sweet boys. The kids in this family (your generation) just seem destined to produce really nice kids. When he gets it, I am going to have to tell him--I saw it first. He will now have two quilts. I made a string quilt a few years back and just knotted it. He thought it was 'really cool' so I gave it to him for his birthday. I believe your Mom had to do the binding for me. It's not my favorite job either. Sort of seems like mending when all the fun work is done.

I also saw the movie recently, and then just rewatched the A&E version. I agree with you that the old one is better. The slow, more complete telling of the story helps you really become interested in the characters and appreciate the humor. But the movie is also good--just a different, maybe more romanticized version, and certainly beautiful.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05669924514599648160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1140370520204858142006-02-19T12:35:00.000-05:002006-02-19T12:35:00.000-05:00I, too, collect words.

The power in words always amazes me.<BR/><BR/>On TV, they'll bleep words and leave visions of terrible violence intact. Words and ideas often scare people more than things that can physically hurt them.<BR/><BR/>I hope you have a wonderful, peaceful day.<BR/><BR/>DarilynHunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01125852784624281411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1140289629545385032006-02-18T14:07:00.000-05:002006-02-18T14:07:00.000-05:00Give Eva a hug and kiss from her aunt.

I hate coming up with names for mine. I'm so challenged when it comes to putting catchy names together.<BR/><BR/>I'm with you on the bindings -- everyone else seems to have nice, straight bindings and I almost always have a ripple somewhere.<BR/><BR/>Judy L.Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10720927550545452529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16593640.post-1140277216027900502006-02-18T10:40:00.000-05:002006-02-18T10:40:00.000-05:00You've been busy!
