And making us laugh at the same time. I will never look at a pinecone the same way again!Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13632520557553405790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-62222648619306960022007-09-21T03:04:00.000-04:002007-09-21T03:04:00.000-04:00Aah - that passage has made my day!
