Oh dear. Emma's going to have a nervous breakdown!π¬ All I've got to say is I had nothing to do with it!!!
I was worried my confusion was from that blow on the head, but evidently not! π€£
So, for the sake of being different I'm going to guess Longfellow. I really have no clue though! But that is an awesome idea though!! To name your garden after your characters!!ππ I'll have to try it sometime!!

I don't know why my reply appears in previous quotations, but anyway, Meg...it's all about Gone With The Wind. While you were gone, we had a discussion and I said it's my favorite book and I love the South. That's how I became known as the Southern cousin, even though I live in PA and have my entire life...surrounded by Yankees!!!! Another reason that causes my to think I shall faint! : )Just kidding, I like the North, too. Especially New England!

I think you're comments are showing up fine Pamela?
Do you mean #2986? Because I was wondering what that was about.π
Allyson wrote: "Do you mean #2986? Because I was wondering what that was about.π"Yes! It's odd.
Allyson wrote: "Do you mean #2986? Because I was wondering what that was about.π"Yeah that didn't show up right. It's happened to me once before, and it was because I clicked reply to a message, and then I backed up too much. I backed up to the original comment.

Fiddle dee dee, I declare that the winner Is Miss Hannah.
Louisa May Alcott at Orchard House.

So...I did, indeed, overthink it! Too much thinking is a bad thing!

No your not.
Whenever there is a gap between two comments-
