Welcome Back
Some of you have emailed me to make sure I’m still here..I’m here! I’m here! Welcome to my new updated Bunny Tales. I’ve been thinking about giving my blog a new look for some time now, and I finally decided that no matter what, I had to make time to do it. I hope you like it.
Instead of leading you into a single post on the home page, I’ve given you a selection. The current post will always be in the upper left corner. Just click on it and you’ll be there. If you’re looking for something in particular you can use the “Search” tab over in the right side bar. I’m amazed at how great it works. For example, try searching for the picture I took of an artichoke. Just type in artichoke, click on go, and three posts that mention the word “artichoke” will come up. Go ahead, try it and I’ll wait for you. Just be sure and come right back!
Great, I’m glad you’re back! I hope you read the posts while you were there, because I’ve decided to do a “welcome back to my blog give-away”! Just look at what I’m giving away…
…three bags of Cosmo Embroidery Floss! There’s enough floss in each bag, you may never have to buy floss again! To win one of these floss bags, leave me a comment with the word “artichoke” in it. You can copy from any of my previous posts, or you can make up your own sentence using the word artichoke. I guarantee inside each of these bags is an artichoke color floss that you can use to embroider little artichokes (see how easy it is?). I’ll pick three random winners on Monday, June 20th.
And here’s some news that might make you feel better if you don’t win one of these treat bags. Cosmo floss will be 25% off during our upcoming sale. I’ve moved our July 4th sale to June! For three days everything on our website will be 25% off. Everything! So save the dates of June 24, 25 and 26! It’s our annual July 4th sale early!
I’ve missed all of you and it feels good to be back in blog-land. I hope you’re enjoying some California artichokes this weekend!
Hugs,
Anne

Tired of being broke and stuck in an unhappy marriage, a young husband decided to solve both problems by taking out a large insurance policy on his wife and arranging to have her killed.A “friend of a friend” put him in touch with a nefarious underworld figure, who went by the name of “Arti.” Arti explained to the husband that his going price for snuffing out a spouse was $5,000. The husband said he was willing to pay that amount, but that he wouldn’t have any cash on hand until he could collect his wife’s insurance money. Arti insisted on being paid in part up front. The man opened up his wallet and displayed the single dollar bill that rested inside. Arti sighed, rolled his eyes, and reluctantly agreed to accept the dollar as down payment for the dirty deed.A few days later, Arti followed the man’s wife to the local Safeway grocery store. There, he surprised her in the produce department and proceeded to strangle her with his gloved hands. As the poor unsuspecting woman drew her last breath and slumped to the floor, the manager of the produce department stumbled unexpectedly onto the scene. Unwilling to leave any witnesses behind, Arti had no choice but to strangle the produce manager as well. Unknown to Arti, the entire proceedings were captured by hidden cameras and observed by the store’s security guard, who immediately called the police. Arti was caught and arrested before he could leave the store. Under intense questioning at the police station, Arti revealed the sordid plan, including his financial arrangements with the hapless husband. And that is why, the next day in the newspaper, the headline declared: “Arti chokes two for a dollar at Safeway.”

I love artichokes and feel fortunate to live in California and able to grow my own. They are good to eat and the beautiful flowers are perfect additions for a rustic bouquet.

My favorite memory of artichokes was when I was single and living in my own. Apartment. My Mom came to visit me for the weekend and I made steamed artichokes for dinner. It seemed really extravagant and we both really enjoyed them and that weekend. She has passed away now but I remember that meal as one of my favorites!
