Dear Ruth, 
     I did call Rachel, first reaching her husband, then when she got 
home from work, her.  I left her my number, and a corddule invitation to 
call me when she had time.  She was just home from work on the biggest 
retail day of the year so was dead on her feet.  Perhaps she will find 
time to call. 
    My cake decorating job lasted just one day.  It wasn't what i was 
looking for [all fast, fast production decorating  ] and i doubt that i 
was what they were looking for.  I may be many things,  good and bad, 
but fast isn't one of them.  I called the manager and suggested that we 
both cut our loses before she invested more training in me.  She agreed. 
    I am trying to make those cinnamon ornaments.  So far, i am not 
impressed.  For one thing they curled. how am i supposed to sent that 
through the mail?  I found out how to avoid the canceling machine.  Take 
the letters to the PO and have them 'bar coded'.  If they are more than 
1/4 inch thick over all, there is an 11 cent service charge.  The 
ornaments are [at least so far] also not very tough.  I'm trying some 
additives.  I surely hope i can make it work, i bought about 30 bottles 
of cinnamon. 
    May God bless you and yours. 
           Shalom, ll
