Today would have been my Grama Crooks’ birthday! Erma Eakman Crooks was born on December 16, 1898 and passed away in 1972. I was 22 so I had a lot of years with her – compared to some. I still miss her and think of all the fun things we did together on the farm, and all of life’s lessons I learned from her. She would have been 126 today!

Just a little to do in Jeannette, then I went to Miller’s Crossing for Honey. I browsed a bit and saw this silly earrings – a hen with pink dangling boots!

There were at least three booths that sold cute earrings – and they were all $4 or $5. Alea should put a display there!

These are Alea’s.

I did some Christmas shopping, came home and wrapped them, and then did some secret sewing. Laundry, ironing, and now it’s time to think about dinner.

My blessing for today was running errands in the warm, dry temperatures. Sunshine!

PEANUTS Thought for the Day:

TOMORROW December 17th is:

National Devise Appreciation Day; National Maple Syrup Day; National Feathers Day; Wright Brothers Day.

Yesterday’s fake day was National Hose Day. Tomorrow – I do appreciate my devises! And I’m OK with maple syrup on pancakes. God bless!!
