Happiest of Christmases to all our Chickadees! (Trying to figure out who the two people on the cover of Marla’s Time magazine are…)
Meli Kalikimaka, Leslie–toasting to you for 2026!
Gosh, I read that issue cover to cover but I don’t remember… (hee hee)
OMG! I put it into google images and I was going to specifically ask who was on the cover, but before I could, Gemini AI said: “This image captures a young girl, identified as Jessica DeBoer (also known as Baby Jessica), looking at a copy of the July 19, 1993, issue of TIME magazine. Y’all, I AM BABY JESSICA!!!
Ha! I’m so glad they got you out of that well, dear M!
Thank you. It was a tense 58 hours. 😂
Peace and joy to all–and one of the things I’m most happy about this year is that Marla and Patricia have added their adorable pix to this year! Welcome again, Marla and Patricia!!! xoxo
Happy holidays to everyone! Best wishes for a safe, happy, healthy and prosperous 2026. xoxoxo
the question of the day is…
we’re all the chicks good enough for Santa to visit tonight? I believe so!
happy holidays to all!
Happy 12 days of Christmas and a bright new year to you, dear Hestia!
Happiest holidays everyone! Hugs and warmest wishes. ❤️
Love and good cheer back to you, Cynthia! Hope it’s a beautiful winter wonderland in your neck of the woods. Er, mountains.
