Gardening with Burgundy

received 10.14.2011
 "Let us be grateful to people who make us happy. They are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom." -- Marcel Proust

Post mail from Burgundy! This lady knocked me off my feet after we first met a few years ago. She was so young and her energy was contagious. We sat down for a conversation, an interview of sorts. At the end of the interview, I knew I was glad to her -- which was later confirmed when she delivered a hand written thank you letter. Adorable, no?! Needless to say, I knew I needed to be friends with someone who understood the importance of written correspondence. 

We recently rendezvoused over Thai beer and ABBA karaoke at my old stomping ground, and I am still hugely enchanted by what a stellar human being Burgundy is! We picked up correspondence immediately after our visit, and look at the fantastic card I received in the mail today.

Must write back, but the post closes at 5pm! Shuttlecock! I guess Burgundy will have to wait for one more day...
