Hi Margery, I had to giggle at your DUI shopping, I have too stated, in the past, wine/internet=no!

I am no techno guru but creating an account means you can keep track of your PDF purchases, I am not sure about paper ones.
Someone more tech savvy will jump in, I am sure.

There are printable lists available (I will hunt out the link for you)…[Read more]

Thank you!
How lovely. 🙂

I used to clutch my pearls at the thought of matching but I’ve completely changed my tune, match the hell out of it.

I just recently ordered from Rockywoods and loved them, lucky you!
