JofIndia said...

Your post put me in mind of the stolen kisses clip from Cinema Paradiso, surely one of the most most beautiful films ever made..

And by the way, Miss Susan, are you keeping an accurate count of your kisses...?

Glynn said...

My wife doesn't have to ask; she knows who steals the kisses at our house.

Kass said...

This is just wonderful! Great photos.

I just ate all the kisses out of my grandchildren's Christmas stockings. I'll try not to eat the replacements.

S. Etole said...

J. - yes, but I'm not telling!

Kass - :-)

tee hee!

Ellie, the wonder pooch, stole the turkey carcass out of the garbage. I'd put it in a bag after using it to made stock and a soup, intending to take it out to the trash bin when I went out. I forgot it was there when she went out to the back yard -- the only difference is... she didn't leave any evidence!

Glad your's was cleaned up.... maybe the dog did it? :)

What a great post, Susan. Who could not smile after visiting here?

I will have to write down that Chinese proverb!

Ruth Hiebert said...

I smiled all the way through this post. Someone has to taste that chocolate and it may as well be you.If I were there it would be me. LOL

Leslie said...

Yep. Chocolate is a real heart-drawing element. One of Dave's students gave us a 2-1/2 lb. white chocolate solid piece yesterday. I hid it in the freezer so it won't be right in front of our eyes ... and always in our mouths. The treat should last for quite some time... a real "kisser".
