..you've been to Dresden more than once

..you pay for part of your order with a check and the rest with cash so your husband won't know how much you spent
..AND YOU KNOW YOU'VE MET A LONGABERGER WEAVER IF:....his bottom is reinforced!

I bet you could identify with most of the above. It isn't hard to do, is it? I finally found out who created this masterpiece. I would like to thank Brenda Linn, Kathy Brunson, Donna Smith and Linda Potter for all of their creative energies in helping us to laugh and identify. How true all of these are! Feel free to copy and distribute to your friends to see if they pass the test!
