The Character Cafe Blog Hop!

Guess who is the guest DT for The Character Cafe this month?? Me! They gave me the wonderful image of "Poppies" (the flowers - NOT puppies). The first thought that came to mind was Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow falling asleep in the field of poppies after the Wicked Witch of the West cast a spell. Glinda, the good witch, saved them by conjuring up some snow flurries. Now maybe this is just because I live (at least part time) in Kansas or maybe because The Wizard of Oz was a favorite of my children when they were little.



On to the Blog Hop information: If you arrived here from the Character Cafe then you are on the right track. The line-up is:

I'm still rather blase about blog hops. I start, then I get confused, and give up. The I did involve my self in had the greatest turtle throughout many of the blogs. Silly me didn't try to figure out what company made it. But I'm giving it an all american try again.
