Re: Free to a (good) home

Hello All, Thank you to Reta, Suleigh & Curtis 1688 for playing along with my little tie breaker. For those who are interested, I asked how many cadbury's eclairs i had in a bag on my desk. the closest guess got the butterfly stitch kit. The correct answer was 12. https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaih...
