Margaret, thank you for adding my lens on Taiwanese Hotpot and for your nice comment on that lens. As I responded on my guestlist, I miss chatting with you all on the Squidoo forums, but my work and family obligations make active participation impossible at this time. But I still try to polish my lenses up now and then and I love hearing from you all! Great group by the way! I'm hoping to create some lenses about India in the near future, if I can find the time. If I do, I'll definitely submit them to this group! Posted March 20, 2008 |
