Making Lemonade.....

2010-10-18T11:17:00.008-04:00

One of my favorite posters in my formative years, was:
“When Life Hands You Lemons,
Make Lemonade!”
Well, Now I get to put that into practice!
(I actually found the perfect “Present Time” Sentiment when Googling for a duplicate of that poster):
“When Life Hands You Lemons;
Put Them on Ebay,
Someone Will Bid On Them!”

So, Off I Go!!!
How does "MidMaryland's Country Cupboard" -a Webstore for Artists in the MidMaryland Region, sound? (Stay Tuned!!)
