I told Mr Magpie about it and handed him the wooden measure and I now have a super star too...thank you for inspiring me on many levels!<br />oxo~*~Patty Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953758102509632020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3235116393079026217.post-24166409056628828212011-06-14T10:10:33.247-05:002011-06-14T10:10:33.247-05:00I love these, great texture and a wonderful hint o...I love these, great texture and a wonderful hint of a much loved past!
