She would have been 81 today....

And, you did it well.

BTW: We drank juice out of glasses that once held pimiento cheese spread when I was a child and ate cereal out of bowls that came in Ivory Snow boxes. Something else came in Quaker Oats, but I can't remember what. And last but not least, I ate a bologna sandwich for lunch today. The new brands just aren't as good as the slices that we used to watch coming off that big, long roll at the butcher counter, though. It always amazed me at how my uncle (who ran our country store) knew just how many slices made up a pound.

One thing I don't miss with the modern bologna, however, is pulling off the cellophane casing before you made your sandwich. And how many of you ate fried bologna -- and knew how to cut it so that it would lay flat in the pan once it got hot???

Thanks, Rob. Your memories brought back our memories. I think your mother would like that.
