Fooling around with blog building

Friends, as you can see I have a lot to learn about designing a blog. There is this wonderful fairy out there...the graphics fairy...who not only gives out free blog art but also tells you how to add it to your blog.  Thank you, graphics fairy. With your help, I hope that I will soon have a readable, interesting blog.  The first step will be getting the title inside the frame. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Hello!

Welcome to my blog's first post.  I am just getting started and looking forward to posting.  In case you wondered, Emma  and Lida Mae  are my grandmothers, ladies whom I admire and work hard to be like.  They were expert gardeners and seed savers; quilters and crocheters; cooks and preservers; and wonderful home keepers. I will add pictures of them soon.
