    Today is May Day, when we traditionally make a May Basket for friends and family. So, I am giving you each a May Basket and wishing you all a happy Spring!

    Thanks Jane. I remember leaving May baskets on neighbors door when I was a kid.

    Thank you....I remember making them and then I would hang it on someones front door and run as fast as I could. You never wanted them to know who it was from. I am not sure why we had to be anonymous but that is what we did here. Here is one for you... Spring%20Freebie.gif

    Sherry, thank you for the May basket! I took several to the local nursing home--couldn't provide one for each resident, but those who received a May basket seemed to enjoy them. Being anonymous is part of the fun!
