He met me at the top of your stairs with great excitement. Immediately he brought his ball to show me and within seconds he trotted out with Frannie's stuffed toy which Django now loves. Fannie is not jealous and does not care --she likes to share! Maybe she is in love with Django. He is easy to love! As she is! Don't know about the apricot bars -- look yummy!
