Love it!

For Christmas, my aunt sent me a package.  Inside was this:

It's a blurb book full of recipes, photos and little tidbits of my Grandma Sweetie.  I can't tell you how many times I've looked through this book since I got it.  Goosey and Dogger love to browse it also.  I read all the captions to them, and told a story for almost every picture in the book.

I love this page because my Auntie Sue scanned one of my grandma's recipes--written in her hand and obviously well loved.

Here's a collage of photos that I especially like.  Check out Grandma's earrings and the sweater she's wearing while serving food at a picnic.  I adore the picture of her picking squash in the garden.  I want to re-create that apron.  What colors do you think it was?  I'm thinking white and blue.

There are also pictures of Grandma & Grandpa's wedding (which I don't remember seeing before), a (scanned) pressed flower arrangement made by Grandma and the five houses they lived in during their marriage.  And lots and lots of family photos.  And recipes.  

I love this little book.  What a beautiful way to remember someone.
