good one, Carolyn. I think you will do well in his contest. This is one I might have to pass by. I'm just not a "stars" person. Speaking of which, Poor LInda. I don't know if i can do HERs either. About my Boston Cream, that is a really yummy cake, if I can ever locate the recipe, and NO, I would never write about the tea parties going on these days because I hate them, and my poem might piss people off. haha. LUv ya, andrea
