I contemplate & resist, contemplate & resist and often ultimately set things down. It is refreshing to get "back to basics" sometimes.

There are so many tempting products out there, but it makes good sense to use the supplies in the stash.<br />Love your blog!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555263808319028552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6089078230907311032.post-41565581658497477042011-06-06T10:46:13.670-07:002011-06-06T10:46:13.670-07:00Love this post.
