Thank you to all those who commented last week.
Not everyone had a romantic restaurant to share but those restaurants that were shared sound wonderful. Jane agreed that you create your own romance no matter the place. :-)
It was fun to see what meals were shared and I enjoyed even more learning what books you were currently reading. Faith Hope and Cherrytea shared two recipe books and I love the name (and thought) of Friendship Bread.

Q1. Sarah asks: What is your favourite mode of transportation??
Q2. My question this week: If you were to give your Mom a book for Mother's Day, what book would you pick?? Or, for those like me whose mother's are not here to share with, what book do you associate with your Mother??
Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson
I don't think this is the right cover and I will check when I return home.
The one I have is a paperback volume from the 1960s.
Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month I will draw from the suggestions I used the month before and that person will get a book choice or GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions but some of you others might want to get in a question or two as we have a few people submitting most of the questions so far. Either way - it works for me. :-) The question list is being replenished! Thanks for sending in questions!

A: Well I think that is an easy question for me because I love cruising! So cruise ships is #1 and trains would be #2 although unfortunately they are too expensive for fun travel.
This is a shot looking back at the Emerald Princess
while we took the tender into Greenland.

A: This is still a little hard for me even though my Mom has been gone for many years. She passed when I was 21. The book that always makes me think of her is one of her favorite books, Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson. It is a book which I gave to her as a gift when I was in college.
