Challenge 119 - Week Two

Welcome to the second week of
"Put the Sentiment on a Tag"
Challenge 119
Nov 11-18
Just a heads-up - we have multiple entries so far in the challenge that are NOT following the theme  Put the Sentiment on a Tag!   It appears that another blog inadvertently listed our theme incorrectly as 'use a 2 or 3 word sentiment' - [that was the last challenge!].  I am so sorry for those of you who have entered such beautiful work based on this misinformation.    We [and they] recommend that you always double check the theme and the rules when you go to enter the challenge at the web site.
