Franklin chocolate!



(The photo above is courtesy Tom Jeffers, taken at the Bhigg House.)

As I was unpacking from my Winnipeg trip yesterday, the doorbell rang. It was Canada Post, with a big package from Germany (!). Inside the box was a card from Urban Tapestry's friend Franklin, who kept presenting us with chocolate when we were Guests of Honor at Filkcontinental.

Also inside the box: three large and fairly hefty gift bags, one for each of Jodi, Allison and me. I opened mine, and here's what it contained:

German chocolate


Woohoo, more Franklin chocolate! The accompanying note from Franklin said it was in celebration of St. Nicholas Day (thanks to Allison for the link). THANK YOU, FRANKLIN! Jeff thanks you, too.

:-D

Beckett and Dandelion Wine


The above photo is of Beckett on her harmonica, jamming with Dandelion Wine.

I forgot to mention yesterday, by the way, that if you'd like to find out more about Dandelion Wine you can check out their Web site, which was created by Beckett.

One of the many things I love about Dandelion Wine is that these two guys are just as nice off-stage as they are on-stage. So many musicians and groups seem super-friendly and approachable when they're performing, but are wrapped up in the whole rock/folk star ego-persona when they're not. Dave and Tom are just as good-hearted and sweet-natured as they seem on-stage. Both of them are on Livejournal; Tom tends to post more often, and you can find his LJ here.

Dave and Tom the Guests of Honour at GAfilk next month; if you're attending the convention and have never had the pleasure of hearing Dandelion Wine before, you're in for a treat!
