You may have old KODACOLOR prints in your home, fading away.
I captured this one with my iPhone. Not much color left.
I’m posting this one to say Happy Birthday to my brother David.
I’m almost two, he’s almost 5 – in this picture of the two of us sitting on our dad’s knees in Montclair NJ.
“They say it’s your birthday…
I’m glad it’s your birthday”
Forty one years sure went by fast!
Love you, Ma

I have an old drop leaf desk in my front hall.
It’s the repository of my important papers. And old birthday cards, ticket stubs, cancelled checks, yellowed newspaper clippings and _
although I did NOT find what I needed, I found these old Garbage Pail Kids Trading Cards from the eighties.
“originally released in 1985 and designed to parody the Cabbage Patch Kids dolls, which were immensely popular at the time.” Wikipedia
excerpt from Wikipedia- for more indepth information click here
“The series was the brainchild of Topps consultant and Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Art Spiegelman, ……..Spiegelman and fellow cartoonist Mark Newgarden worked together as the editors and art directors of the project, Len Brown was the manager, and the first run of the cards was drawn exclusively by artist John Pound”

Do you think it’s time to clean off the front porch? Past the time for a good Spring cleaning? This is just one swipe off the circular plastic tabletop!
Looking forward to spending time on the front porch- reading, knitting, sipping tea or lemonade, serving guests supper, remembering happy occasions celebrated on the front porch. One of my favorite parts of my home. Have to run and clean up the rest of it, spiderwebs and dried leaves.

So many “firsts” when you’re 22 months.
Learning to take turns. Spinning the spinner. Counting the cherries in the bucket. Waiting to go again.

Dear Anna, May all your wishes come true.
Love, FF Ruthie
Granddaughter Anna makes a wish as she blows out the candles on the cupcakes at the Surprise Party with her friends and family at the Mellow Mushroom.
And at home contemplating a second wish with the family as cousin Charlie looks on.
