I love the stamps...

I just think they are so pretty, and it's a great bonus that the extra money goes to research. My little rural post office seems to be out of them most of the time.

My mother in law was a patient of Dr. Ernie Bodai, as Lexigirl was, for breast cancer surgery. There is a huge fundraiser each year in his honor for breast cancer here in Sacramento with celebrities appearing and donating all the funds to research. We went to one that featured Wayne Brady and it was wonderful.

Have a great day, buy stamps!
