Perhaps from your perspective, and I can respect that. However, as a fairly far left independent who is sick and tired of the Democratic establishment's incompetence, the last thing I want is to make some sort of loyalty pledge. I'm also not ok with even a tiny erosion of our state's open primary system, which I personally find important. I believe in free, independent and private voting, and am not interested in "party loyalty" (even if I've never not voted D). Call me a dreamer, but these sorts of things are important to me.

Thank you so much for the kindness, but I made the drive today (was already in Mechanicsville from almost-Amelia, figured may as well since I was already halfway there). Thanks again, though. <3

This looks so close to what my mother did, I wonder if this is the exact recipe she used... it's one of the few recipes we don't have of "hers". Thank you! I might work up the courage to trying to make these someday.

I appreciate your care, but it has been 3 years and I've moved on about as well as could be expected. I think in a lot of ways it can be harder on a parent than a child.

The hope is to collect several ideas and do exactly as you suggested, have a taste off to decide on where to place a larger order!
