Where...

in the world have I been?

I've been right here,

teaching
learning
smiling
crying
hoping
wishing
thinking
praying
working hard
planning
training
talking
shopping
returning
sorting
blending
soaking
kissing
hugging
resting...

everything but blogging!

a rest is good...but now I'm ready to be back...

strangely enough, I've gained more followers during my hiatus (hello, everyone!)

i have about a million photos to unload and share
and new recipes and foodie goodness to share, too...

now I have to find time to post it all
because I'm still doing all of the above!!
