Your blog party was a delight! Than...Hello Leslie! <br />Your blog party was a delight! Thank you for your wonderful article and for all of the great info and photos! The photos were so great! They added a wonderful family tone and I am very visual, so I completely loved how there were images along with information. I aspire to that myself, and, off the subject, I love graphic novels. I have always thought of writing one about plants/herbs/earth and life cycles and the like. My husband wrote a short for a herb competition that he did the art and music and I was the idea gal and did the technical part! It was such fun. We didn't win, but it was one of the best memories! It's called 'dee seeds' :D Thank you for all of the support too!Allisonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15142083282210958697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036766049738639552.post-41186869360633618622012-03-27T09:49:01.045-05:002012-03-27T09:49:01.045-05:00How did I know it was going to be Zambuck?

Noxema on my mosquito ravaged legs when I was little, on suburn, on pimples. I can smell them both now, ha! thanks for invoking the memories :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036766049738639552.post-43505570695303153372012-03-27T09:17:47.210-05:002012-03-27T09:17:47.210-05:00oooh how sweet and enchanting was this post!

I will need to acquire some and will think of the magic (conviction) your dad had whenever he used it. Thank you!
