The passing of the witches hat. 

I was enjoying talking with my granddaughter, Cayenne over lunch, about costumes. She makes her own designs and is much more skilled than I have ever been. But I mentioned I'd decorated a velvet witches hat with stars and moons in fabric paint, and offered it to her.

So after lunch with friends we went to my apartment and she tried it on, and left for Florida with it!

I have no idea what I did, nor how to get it back to correct format! HELP!!

There's what the keyboard looks like on my iPad these days. Really weird. It just suddenly happened.

Today's quote;
