Welcome to the ‘RIEDEL FASCINATION‘ blog! This is my page for sorting out reading challenge membership in 2014. A good batch of new ones catch my eye. The most special thing of all: I’m joining the fun, rewarding, unique, hostesses in this community! Here are the three creations of my very own, débuting February 1, running to February 28, 2015. No colliding with Christmas nor gardening season, which are very important to a Canadian flower and food grower like me! :)
The rest are other groups I may re-join in 2014. I hope you find my list helpful.
