Gretchen, thanks for this early Dose. It is always so relaxing to look at pictures of President Bush, and especially today while all this Wilson buzz is going on.

Has anyone else noticed that when Laura is with Bella Kocharian of Armenia, Lyudmila Putin of Russia, and Zorka Pyruanov of Bulgaria that Zorka seems to always be very close to Laura.

What a Lady that Laura Bush is

The first ladies seem to be warming to one another and their time together

Hmmmmm I would have never thought of wearing gold slingbacks with a charcoal gery suit. Interesting...

[GretchenEE]

that Zorka seems to always be very close to Laura.

YES! I commented to a friend about that - I wonder if she speaks English? A common language always helps break down barriers, but there is something in Laura that this other first lady is very drawn to. I like it.

Laura Bush speaks at Russia's book festival in Moscow, Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2001. Mrs. Bush is bringing some of the most popular American creators of books for young people to Russia's book festival.

Mrs. Bush and Marc Brown, known for his Arthur the aardvark illustrations, seen in the background, who is also taking part in the festival, held a drawing session with Russian second-graders, followed by a question-and-answer session.

I have the pleasure to present to you, real class

That's Laura, as she presents U.S. writers at the festival of school libraries in Moscow, October 1, 2003. She arrived in Moscow on Tuesday on the second leg of a five-day diplomatic tour to Europe

That's a happy First Lady!

Hmmmmm I would have never thought of wearing gold slingbacks with a charcoal gery suit.

I think the large stitching on the suit may contain a hint of gold . . . .

[GretchenEE]

For those who grew up during the subzero's of the Cold War, is this difficult to absorb?

Thanks, Gretchen!

There are a few more photos of Laura but my computer has frozen and won't load them.

Yes, the suit has gold piping--and I think the "base" color may a dark green.

Where are they at? I can link from them, if your system still messes up.

[GretchenEE]

can't find article DrDeb promised to write about last night's fund raiser in Ohio? Has it come in yet.

I didn't check the end of last night's Dose - maybe it will be on tonight's, if it wasn't on Sept. 30th's?

Miss your recipes Gretchen

Please say which type of recipes? I can post more if I know what your interests are.
