I think this is the latest I have ever been to the “party,” but I am strollin’ on in just the same 🙂  I have a good excuse though.  I had a doctor appointment down in Palo Alto so we made the most of it by doing SF and Napa up right this weekend.  I

Dear me . . . I have been meaning to link up to this fun party for the past week, but time did indeed slip by me.  Well, I finally managed to shake the “reindeer in the headlights” look and I’m sneaking this post in just before the linky closes! Score one for Team Dolling!!!
