I suppose the writing workshop was a good thing too... ;)<BR/><BR/>P.S. I don't know why Victoria Beckham never smiles. Perhaps because no one feeds her peach pie.Kimberly Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01858506885360410658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004909290975090333.post-58573832147225960772007-10-15T14:35:00.000-05:002007-10-15T14:35:00.000-05:00Cathy!
