Posted - Sep 10 2009 : 10:29:52 PM What a small world. I've had the pleasure to barter with Emilee here. We have bartered a few times and I've recieved wonderful heirloom seeds and some of the best spices I've every used. Then I bartered with someone else for some Hobby Farms mag's. Well I've been reading one of them from 2008 and I come across a really great article about this young couple who started "Baker Creek Heirloom Seed's" in MO. What a really cool story and pictures of this whole town they are building and the buildings are all old time western looking. My mailman shows up and I receive another package with spices for the holidays in it from Emilee, oh it smells wonderful. Of course I have to go through the package and put away all the spices, planning all my holiday meals using them. I carry her card back to my chair and pick my mag back up to continue reading about Baker Creek. That is when the light goes on, I look at her card signed "Emilee Gettle" wait a second that is the name of the young woman in the article. Oh my goodness, I am bartering with the owner of this wonderful place I'm reading about. So Emilee I am so excited to have read this article about your husband and you. I showed my husband and we are going to plan a vacation just to come see your village in southeastern Missouri.
God's gift to you are your talents, your gift to Him is how you use them. |
