I've learned a lot about the Romanian/Transylvanian area because our small Unitarian church has a sister church there, which is supposedly supported by the state, and to which we used to donate yearly. Now so many people have left or died in the tiny village that the church is only served by a visiting minister monthly, and only elderly people still live there.Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974069331194878127.post-55224780756881580252015-09-27T12:05:33.890-05:002015-09-27T12:05:33.890-05:00Thanks for the comments.

Imagine the look on the coffeehouse barista the first time I ordered the drink.<br /><br />Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17779409214968505642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974069331194878127.post-89580127348276062842015-09-27T04:23:13.643-05:002015-09-27T04:23:13.643-05:00I learn so much on Sepia Saturday.Today's new ...I learn so much on Sepia Saturday.Today's new fact was the 18/Chai symbolism.Boobookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01395043246338753023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974069331194878127.post-79725762731586927062015-09-26T14:51:40.639-05:002015-09-26T14:51:40.639-05:00The spaniel with the hat is hilarious.

The poor dog would slide all over the place and looked like a staggering drunk which everyone thought was hilarious. You were a lovely child.

Thank you too for the poem extracts - an original touch to the post and I had not heard the Burns one before.
