I love “The falling-off is more than the come-to”! That’s an interesting one!
I love “ the falling off is more than the come to”! Struck me as funny but so true. It’s perfectly clear as to the meaning.
That’s chocolate your talking about, isn’t it?

Hi Tipper, I came across one of your you tube videos and heard you mention Gazzie. I was dumbfounded because my grandmother’s sister’s name was Gazzie. My grandmother was Pearl…so low and behold I realized we’re related.
Linda-It was so good to read your comment about us being related! I have fond memories of your Grandmother Pearl 🙂
I hope you are well-and thanks for letting me know you’re out there!
I love all the sayings in Overheard but I like that picture of your daughter more. It cracks me up for some reason. I get a kick out of it.

Hmmm there’s a thought. That’s one way to say ‘one of a kind’ or ‘unique’. Sure do like our ‘homespun’ ways of saying things. Makes me feel at home.
That made me think of homemade ice cream which I haven’t had in many years.
Now there is a different take in the word ‘homespun’ AW. But it fits. Stay dry.
