WOMEN!

Did you know that what happens when you call – or don’t call –
the man in your life can truly make or break your relationship.

Are you calling too much or not enough? Is what you are saying
helping the relationship or pushing him away?

Let me share some thoughts with you

~~~ Tip of the Week ~~~

Autumn will be here in a blink of an eye. Remember this tip when
the pumpkins start showing up next month.

GREAT GOURDS
by Richie Gobin
http://theromantic.com/

It is fun to ‘shop’ for a pumpkin together. To find just the right
size & shape so that you may go home and plan your sculpture.

Keep in mind how fun it can be to place newspapers on the kitchen
floor to capture all the gooey mess of a ripe pumpkin.

So, what I did was to cut an opening into the ‘bottom’ of the
pumpkin and placed inside, wrapped in a plastic moisture-proof
baggie, a love note & small gift (necklace).

My wife and I decide how to carve the pumpkin. First I told her to
cut the top off and dig out the gooey seeds & meat of the pumpkin.

We both reached into this wet mess, pulling together on the strands
of seeds. Then I pulled my hand out and asked her to finish pulling
the guts out.

As she reached in to complete the removal of the ‘guts’ of the
pumpkin, she found the baggie. Just to see her smile as she
discovered this gift, was worth the mess.
