In the cookie of life friends are the chocolate chips!

Back in 2004 I embroided a Nick Barkley picture in "black and white". After she had passed away last year I thought about it now and then. After reciving a letter from her husband Tom in December I got the curage to ask him if I could have it back as a momento of Linda. I felt really bads about asking, I mean I had given it as a gift, given it to somebody else to treasure. Today I got a huge envelope for United Kingdom, no sender written on it and I didn't recognise the handwriting. On the way home from the post office I went over and over in my mind if I had ordered anything online.

It was from Tom! Not only had he sent me "Nick Barkley", he had also sent some other items that I had done for her, wanting me to have them back. There was the "The Wild West Goldmine map", cards I had done and the cook book. I know those of you who knew Linda will snear a little. Linda didn't cook, I know that now but I didn't when I sent it to her. The cook book is one that I did myself to my closest friends for Christmas 2003. I spent the year translating recipes from Swedish to English and I sew covers to them all calling the "book" for Home made. Linda got hers together with the Nick Barkley. One the back of every copy I sew a quote. A different one for each of my friends. Lindas said: In the cookie of life friends are the chocolate chips!

Thanks Tom for returning them to me!
