It would be so easy for us, today, to make pretty handwritten letters, but there is something about blogging and Facebooking, too -- sharing ideas with many people at once, and budding all sorts of new conversations -- that is wonderful.<br /><br />I've written many letters by hand in the past, to people who value such things, but I wish I had a device like Thomas Jefferson's. Tt was a jointed structure with a pen attached, and it would copy his writing movements onto another sheet of paper, so he had an instant copy of the letter he was going to send out. I could photocopy my letters on my scanner, I suppose, but it would certainly use up my ink cartridge quickly!<br /><br />Also, thank you for the blog visit and the recipe! Tinto de verano sounds dangerously easy to make and to drink. I would have to experiment with fizzy lemonades; in the US, they can be sweet or imports that are quite dry/sour. But the experimentation wouldn't be a bad thing!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13036079336754189268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-50332760000642744372010-07-08T01:25:22.616-07:002010-07-08T01:25:22.616-07:00I love those old handwritten letters, it's suc...I love those old handwritten letters, it's such a shame that emails had to take over.

I have started collecting handwritten letters as well - and I have also been fortunate to purchase some other small items from her. When the mail arrives it makes me smile when one of my purchases arrives!! <br /><br />The box is a great idea! I will have to borrow it for my letters. :) ... and I really should do a post about all my wonderful treasures from her.
