Another Milestone


Dear blogging friends, today marks my second year of blogging, and I wish to thank you all for your visits, good conversation and sharing. I'm sending you each a virtual piece of red velvet cake while I work on tomorrow's posting.

  1. Hello Mark:
    To have maintained the exceptionally high standard of 'All Things Ruffnerian' over two years is, we feel, an enormous achievement and deserving of many, many congratulations.

    1. Thanks, Rosemary! I wonder now whether eating a hat is not unlike eating crow!

  7. Mark,
    My blog reading has slipped of late but I saw your post and wanted to wish you a happy anniversary. Welcome to the Terrible Twos when you may often question why it was you ever started a blog. The answer is you give us a five-minute vacation with each post and we learn something new with each little trip.
