      There’s something wrong, I can’t comment, it says “Weebly refused to connect”, so let me do so here:

      Thank you for this peaceful message, Jeanine. Your words feel like a deep breath in the middle of a busy day.

        Oh that’s so weird, Tamara! Sorry you’ve had trouble commenting. Hopefully, it will work for you on a future post. Thanks for your kind message.

      Commented. But is this your blog or Robin’s?



  4. Martha on October 16, 2025 at 5:57 pm


    • John Hadley on October 16, 2025 at 6:18 pm

      Martha: There is something wrong with your blog. When I clicked on your link, it tells me it is a security risk and will not go to it. Here’s the error message:

      Websites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for themarthareview.com. The certificate is only valid for *.themarthareview.com.

      Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN



      • Alice Gerard on October 16, 2025 at 6:20 pm

        It could be a link issue. I have had that message when I clicked onto the link. When I put themarthareview.com in my browser, I was able to acccess the site without any warnings.



        • Alice Gerard on October 16, 2025 at 6:26 pm

          John, I just clicked onto the link from Google Chrome, and I didn’t have that same issue. It could be a firefox issue. You might want to try a different browser.



          • John Hadley on October 16, 2025 at 9:19 pm

            I just tried it from a different ‘secure’ browser, and it went through to the blog, but the site does say at the top “Not Secure”. I’m sure that’s why firefox refused to go there, and I would imagine that would create a problem for others as well, depending on the way it’s accessed.

      Martha: You might want to think about getting your site ‘secured’, so you don’t lose out on visitors who are sensitive to that, and search engines that avoid unsecured sites. I did that on my site several years ago for just that reason. Anyway, ‘commented’.

      PS: There’s a minor typo at the end you might want to correct:
      “It was so go, hot out of the oven”
