Do you see a ‘trash’ button, cybele? I dumped the one blank post for you. I think you just need to resize your image and re-upload, or else you can host it on flickr and link to that image.

I think like so? Sorry, didn’t have a sewing related pic in the first page of my flickr results and didn’t want to do the endless scroll thing. Max file…[Read more]

@sahmcolorado – yes, western Massachusetts is totally different from Bostonian English! We eat a sub for lunch, get our liquor at the packy, and my parents (really old-school Bostonian) drink tonic – they call any carbonated beverage (Coke, ginger ale, etc) tonic.
