(Would you believe that sometimes I do try to wait? Yeah, I'm weird like that.)<br /><br />I enjoyed your mosaics a lot. You really should link up with Mosaic Monday sometime. Mary has some new loose rules about visiting the ten before you or the ten behind you and not fretting about leaving comments for all who participate. I try to visit as many as I can, but I am glad of the "relaxed" rules...not that Mary ever really had any.<br /><br />Okay, back to the topic at hand.

Almost. <br /><br />Now the tea...er...coffee house is very charming and you are blessed to have such an establishment in your corner. We don't. They've all closed.
