Note to Richman (and to the housewives) : bet everybody would be happy if they put the abominable snowman in charge of the frozen foods stockroom. Think on these things.

Love the coffee story.

And Love your collage (with a big L, notice?)

Cheers, cm. Best to you and yours.

Now that's a news story! Every now and then, I'll get a prepaid card for a cuppa, from my bank. It's their way of saying "thanks for the busy-ness"! But this goes way beyond that. Great story, C.M. And that pic is intense, what with those eyes in the background...intently watching...

Really great story. I see it around here too, unexpected small acts of kindness that make a huge difference.
I also liked the colored bird eyes looking over the black and white image.

Hey, if that abominal snowman is wanting a job, he needs to wear a hairnet! Especially around the peas and carrots.
