LINKS

Natalie gave me a link to a site to order Mexican vanilla on line, knowing that I won't be using it and afraid of losing track of it I wondered how I could save it for later use. I came up with this idea that we can use this post to add links to products we like to order and share with others.

or just add new posts and label them links.
