cards which I once put in the freezer, and couldn't find for 6 months.
I couldn't afford to buy new, the darn cards cost $5 or $6.00 each.
Nowadays there is a 39 cent card store around the corner from
me--huge selection, beautiful cards. Huh. Well, I try not to stick
cards in the freezer, but, cure one wierd behavior, find another...

Okay, Cea. That beats the coffee cups I have found at random places around my house. Definitely. Mine turn up most often on laundry room shelves but occassionally in the garage or in some odd nook on the computer desk that can't be seen in the normal line of vision. Which reminds me, I bought some birthday cards recently and I'm not sure where they are. I think I will check my freezer since it worked for you. You just never know when the randomly generated safe place to store something will strike along with the forties fog.
And how often has anyone stared at that important note that doesn't belong on the kitchen table but has been there for days, only to move it to a "safe place" and lose the darn thing!? The item generally turns up several months later in some location that doesn't seem either safe or likely.
Thanks for the image of the chilly (but safe) Easter cards!
