It's cleaning day here. Arrrr... (that was a sad "arrrr")

Arrr, you have my sympathies, but you must get a nice reward, don't ya?

Well, that was a few hours ago, you must be done and munching on bon-bons and watching tv by now :)

Hope you had a pretty good weekend anyway, even with the cleaning, heh.

The name bonbon (or bon-bons) refers to any of several types of sweets, especially small candies enrobed in chocolate.
The first reports of bonbons come from the 17th century, when they were made at the French royal court. Their name arose from infantile reduplication of the word bon, meaning 'good'. In modern French and several other European languages, the term simply refers to any type of candy or small confection. Bonbon's are a favorite treat of Married With Children character Peggy Bundy.
This sweet inspired Johann Strauss II to compose a waltz named, "Wiener Bonbons".

Just for you Pchela :) good night crew!

Good afternoon - thanks for all of the bonbon definitions!

Bon bon's, chocolate covered ice-cream ... yes, I must have some! Closest I've ever gotten was an ice cream sandwich "heath" ?

Finally done cutting wood into boxes and panels and started shaping the panels to get them ready for mounting into the backs of the mods. We are underway at last! Arrr

Ahoy and good morning me 'earties!

Been up for a while, gone through half a pot 'o coffee while having a wonderful time reading customs regulations for various countries and making notes. Did you know that some countries ban the import of wheelbarrows? And some ban the import of a pair of shoes (although you can ship a single shoe). Fortunately buyers often notify me when there are extra hoops I need to jump through to ship to them :)

Well, off to make some saw dust, happy Tuesday!
