Shirley, you SHOULDN'T have, but I humbly accept. I honestly don't know if I will be able to pass it along, but I'll surely (surely, shirley - get it? haha) post these to my blog in acknowledgment. You are a DARLING!

I will treasure these, thank you for the honour.

Ohhh PRETTY rocks, what a GREAT deal!

Thx EVER so much.
