OK...my list:

God Family and country-no its not three, in my mind its all in one; like the holy trinity
music  piano especially played by the Chinese artist LangLang-he's incredable- his Lizt is unbelivable and Rachmaninoff brings tears
fabric-there is no such thing as a bad fabric, you just haven't thought of a use yet!
computers-because of the connection they give me to the world
online shopping-especially for fabric

Hi Luann,

A flat white is a coffee beverage that is served over here in NZ and Australia.
It is frothy milk which is folded into the coffee creating an extremely inviting mixture.
It is so yummy and such a great treat for morning tea.

It was really funny when we were in Hawaii last year, I thought I would ask for a flat white in a cafe and the
waiter looked so surprised and had to go and ask what it was. I thought everyone made these type of coffees.

Hugs
Carolyn
