Tweaking things

Ok, so before I launch into my fabulous Christmas stories, I want you to check out the recent changes to my blog.
1. Check out my sister's blog via the link...just this way, folks >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Now you can get stories from both sides of the region

2. If you look at the bottom of this post, you will see a place where you can mark your reactions to my posts (check all that apply).

Are you ready to hear how a church was closed for Christmas, how we navigated the metro with all odds against us, how Laura got locked inside a train, and how I was subjected to foie gras yet again?  Stayed tuned!
