Throwback Thursday
Girl Scout patches found while cleaning today. Yes I spent the night with the Girl Scout troop And I slept in a sleeping bag in the floor!
Remembering When I Made a Rainbow Jell-o in 2017
Throwback Thursday
I posted this creation for the LAYERED theme in 2017
Here’s a recipe if you feel inclined to make a rainbow jell-o this was created to photograph not to eat. As I looked at the old post I see I kept it in the freezer for longer than I wanted to admit.
The recipe I used took five hours to make and had Greek yogurt in the opaque layers not sour cream like the linked recipe.
Absent Friends
Throwback Thursday. This tiny China box was a gift from a friend in 1981.
Inside I have some old earrings and my HS class ring from 1970.
Don’t open it often but did today.

Unknown Portrait
Not an ancestor. An unknown. For Throwback Thursday.
When the neighbors moved last year, we inherited some artwork.
I looked at it today and this face was looking back at me. There are no identifying marks on the back . I don’t even have a wild guess.
You can make up whatever story you can think of about the subject staring out.
The Sunny-Sulky Book
Throwback Thursday.
This is a volume of my mother’s childhood along with her brothers John and Robert. This is a copy of the book they were read to, not the actual one that belonged to them. I was able to find a copy online and gave it to my mom years ago.
My mother Marian was born in 1912 , John in 1910 and Robert in 1914 so that will give you a reference to the time period.
The story lines wouldn’t be acceptable in today’s world. “In “The sunny side,” children behave well and are rewarded for their virtues. In “The sulky side,” children misbehave and are punished by either their parents or their peers”
I guess the objective of the book was to keep kids in line!
When I was little I enjoyed hearing tales of the naughty children. 😂 my mother recounted a few of the tales but I only had my imagination to envision them at the time. The book is still available online with different illustrations.
The book opens in two directions. Half are stories of Sunny children who exhibit desirable virtues, do good deeds and show excellent deportment.
The other half are stories of Sulky children who get into their mischief, show poor manners or are naughty.
I remember the story of Fairy -Eat -it -All.
Turn the book over and the Sunny stories begin

Yes I made the dress. It was white piqué. I didn’t remember the nose gay. I know I was fourth in line to march in as they lined us up by height for some odd reason.
It was a long time ago.

My Grandfather’s Sister Jessie
Jessie Margaret Van Sickle, born 1878 passed in 1904, my maternal Grandfather’s sister. She is his only sibling who made it to adulthood. She was studying the singing of opera from what I’ve heard.
“died of consumption” it says on the Find-A-Grave post.
Barely legible but I’m grateful for the pencil notes
