Here's a picture of me and my Aunt Ruth, taken Labor Day weekend in her bedroom at the Nursing Home. She still knows who I am and still thinks I'm all that and a bag of chips.I owe this lady so much. She took care of me, and taught me the healthful benefits of cigarettes and coffee, and a civilized happy hour. She also taught me the benefits of knitting and baking, and people watching. And she always knew how to throw a great fantastic over-the-top party!
And, of course, much like her sister and my grandma, Junie, she taught me the benefit of keeping my pockets filled with treats to feed the dogs on my daily walks. What a great lady!
