Dear Rike

This message is for Rike B in Germany. I have really enjoyed reading your comments and I very much appreciate that you have been visiting the blog. For some reason, your email address is not available to me, so I cannot reply to you personally. Please email me directly at tinastitches (at) gmail (dot) com so we can be friends.

I think the problem is that I have not registered for google+. If you use it, please let me know why I should switch. Are there downsides?
