She asked for feedback on her site, and I didn't really know her, but I offered it nicely, but pointed out the error. She didn't appreciate it at first, but later when she asked for a support buddy and I raised my hand, she knew she could trust I'd be honest with her. We shall never forget our fun beginnings! I've toned it down a lot over the years. Now I just cringe in silence. :D My best friend and I met over it’s vs. its.

If you manage to make an ampersand garland, I would love to see it!
