Sigh. I’ll do my best to honor his wishes. After all, I wouldn’t want to let him down.

    We need to talk about cloning your husband. I’m sure it won’t hurt a bit. Think of the yarn money you could make from the proceeds!

    I hope you have a fabulous time.

    If memory serves, there is at least one framing shop in downtown Portland.

    One thing is for sure: Dale can have his pick of knitters.
