People.

Each winter our family gets out a card table and begins work on a puzzle or two. This year I bought one at the Goodwill that was 750 pieces, 22" x 22", and a watercolor type painting of a florist's shop. It was beautiful with all the pinks, reds, greens, and white.  It was very challenging, but really enjoyable to sit with one or two of  the kids and chat while we pondered the pieces.

There is a special place in hell for people who donate puzzles to the Goodwill with a piece missing.

We finished the puzzle, except for the red and white awning piece, noticeably missing from the top center.  We promptly ripped the whole thing into eight large pieces still conjoined and put it in the burnables bin - off to the burn barrel tomorrow.  That's one less person to burn in the fiery place, and one puzzle that should have burned weeks ago!

We'll begin again on a new puzzle tonight or tomorrow, with high hopes that all the pieces are present and accounted for.
