Here's a fun envelope from Mary. She enclosed a note wondering if I had received any other * blue jean* designs. I remembered one that I can't find - and then I found one that I had forgotten - from Leslie.
I think I will put the name *Blue Jean* on the exchange list for January.
In middle school, a few of my friends called me Greenie Jeannie, because they noticed that I wore a lot of green. In February, if I remember, I will put Greenie Jeanie on the exchange list - or maybe save it for March in case there are St Patrick's day themes. Keep in mind, my mom would get all uppity in March and declare that it was self centered of the Irish to think that they deserved their own day. I'm neutral about the whole thing. I identify most closely with my Finnish/Swedish/Norwegian heritage and we are too busy staying warm to get worked up about those people who have the luxury of temperate climates and time to party and celebrate.
And don't get me started on the Mediterraneans.
