Tuesday Topics – Six Favorite Country Songs
I thought I'd have trouble with this week's topic for Tuesday Topics with Quirky Pickings. I am not a big country music fan. Most of it makes me kind of cringe. But the more I started thinking about it, the more I was able to find a pretty decent list. Most of what I chose… Continue reading Tuesday Topics – Six Favorite Country Songs
If You Give a Mom a Carpet Shampooer….
