As you can see...got my new look on. Thanks to Heather at Bluhm Studios for the banner design and overall look of my blog. She is crazy-talented and fun to work with. If you need help with design on your blog, or website, or business cards, she is your gal.
Also, a very heartfelt thanks to the insanely gifted Vanessa at A Fanciful Twist for the illustration of Hazel and me. If you don't read her blog, you should, it is the most unique and whimsical trip you will take on the internet.

Please let me know what you think, by email or comment...Suz

Very nice. But I don't miss the music. It interferes with my iTunes when I'm reading your site.

From someone without it, I like the cleavage on your "About Me" picture... Oh, was that not what you meant by a comment on the new design?...I love the colors, I love pink with anything. It's you, but I too miss the music because now Olivia and I don't have anything to dance to while reading your blog.

Cute and girlie look to the site....but I think the photo of you was a nice personal touch. Seemed to welcome people in.....
The music was pretty cool and helped to set the tone for reading......but still the site looks lovely with the new design!

I like it. I don't miss the music. I don't miss your pic. I do miss your lists. I also miss the show "Wings" it was so funny.

"Wings" I loved those guys. Suzanne, is there anything you can do, within your blog, to get "Wings" back on the air? I mean, I don't know what, but I did really love wings.
PS I like the girl and the dog.

Suzanne, who ARE all these people who read your blog? I thought I was the only "lurker" turned commenter. I have to now come up with another hook. How about I start using a lot of ...'s, No, that's your hook, sorry.
