Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Sorry about not getting a menu out yesterday, but I took a day off to
attend the funeral of my third grade teacher. She had just turned 97
last month and my family and her family have been friends for
literally generations. (Now, my daugher is best friends forever with
her great-granddaughter.) She was buried at Bengal, where I lived
until I was 10, and where my grandmother is buried, so I got to go over
there and see and visit with a lot of folks I hadn't seen in years. I
went by our old house and walked around, looking and remembering and
picked up a few odd rocks, a load of seed ticks and an old henhouse
gourd that we used to use in the chicken nests to fool the snakes, and
give the hens the idea to lay more. It's almost magical the way you
can be transported back in time and memory by visiting the old places
of your past, seeing things you hadn't seen in years and thinking about
things you hadn't thought of since childhood. <br>
