Hope Princess is much better by now. I've always loved that Wm. Morris quote - what gorgous designs he created - I've been trying to live with this thought for some time. I find it does make life much more rewarding when looking about and seeing just what one loves and cares for most. Good news for us in North Raleigh - 'Whole Foods' plans a huge new store to be built. This, along with 'Trader Joe's' also coming soon (have to go miles to Cary for the latter right now), means good food shopping close to home, save on gas, and buy fresh daily - yippee! Took Jasmin to the NC Museum of Art last week but was somewhat disappointed to find many exhibit areas closed, or items in storage, due to the expansion and construction. She loves the Egyptian room but that was completely gone for now. Just thought I'd let you know in case you are planning a visit this Summer. We picked up lunch, spinach pie, chick peas and pita bread from Neomonde (the wonderful Lebanese bakery/restaurant near the Arboretum) and enjoyed same on a rock in the museum garden! Hope all is well in the garden and there have been no more "surprises"!! Bet the kitties are getting big now - Jasmin loved your videos and of course wanted them all!
